Cured by . Simple Remedy

Columbus, Ga. T am telling every body what Vino1 has done for my husband He had a bronchial cough. his system was rundown, and I felt sure he would die. His father in- sisted on his trying Vinol, and am so thankful he did. because it cured his cough and built him up. My doc tor highly recommends it and said he could not take anything better" Mrs. Thomas Monk
 vinol you know, contains beef and cod liver peptones, iron and manga nese peptonates and giycerophos- phates. It enriches and revitalizes the blood and conveys to the system the vital elements necessary to strengthen the bea and throw off the disease. That is the reason it was so successful in MT.

Fine Banking-house for Westerly
Trust company's New Building Open Monday Splendid Structure of Westerly Granite Completed- Mass Meeting for Peace Planned ed-Medical Societys Annual Meeting

The magni1cient granite structure
 which will be the new home of the
 Industrial Trust company's Westerly
 branch, will be opend for business on next Monday morning. the shift from
 the temporary quarters in the Dixon
 House block on Broad street to be made after banking hours Saturday. The men employed in finishing the in |. terior of the building have been work ing until midnight recently to com plete the work in time for the opening. which has been delayed considerably by the arrival of damaged fixtures. Saturday afternoon. January 20. the public will be given an opportunity to inspect the new banking quarters from the basement to the top of the big dome.
 When the Industrial Trust company took over the business of the Mantle bank, they considered the renovation of the banking house. but James M. Pen d1eton, who became their local man ager, influenced the company to post pone these alterations with the hope that the business might development to such an extent that a new banking house might be erected. Plans were discussed four of five years ago for such building, but they did not ma terialize until about two years ago. The plans submitted by Stone. Car penter and Sheldon of Providence were adopted. The New England Granite they having carefully figured several times the cost of the different plans. and finally furnishing very low bid for the work. Thus Mir. Pendleton, who has been on the building commit tee of nearly all the recently construct ed public buildings in Westerly, has the satisfaction of seeing the town get a thoroughly built fire proof structure. built of material that he is justly proud of, and executed in the highest degree of workmanship and design.
 Judge Oliver H. Williams was re- elected judge of the district court of the Third Judicials district Thursday afternoon by the general assembly of Rhode Island without opposition. Clar- ence E. Roche was also re- elected clerk of the Third District court. This is Judge Williams fifth term, he having served the study of law in the office of Attorney Albert B. Crafts in Vest erly and on April IT. 1897 was admit ted to the Rhode Island bar. In June. 1903, he was made judge of probate and served for two years, being re- appointed in 1904. He succeeded Judge John w. Sweeney as judge of the Third District court, who is now a jus tice of the superior court.
