band He lad bronchial cough, his
system was rundown and felt lie
would die. His father insisted on his
trying Vinol and am so thankful he
did. because it cured his cough and
built him up. Lily doctor highly re-

Vinol. you know, contains beef and

the blood and conveys to the system
the vital elements necessary to
strengthen the body and throw off the
disease That is the reason it was so
successful in Mr.. Monks case.

Tail Of the Ptarmican.

One OF the most entertaining OF chap

relates to the many curious means that
birds and certain animals possess Of
deceiving the eyes of their enemies.
Attention may be called to the follow

suppose that this would attract alton

How a Beaver Can Work.

day If you apply 1t.
Strap hangers in the street cars lurcb
forward when the car stops and back

especially If a 200 FOUNDER hits you.
Remember that place in the physics

Well, apply it. When the car stops
