Gain Strength and Vigor rapidly
ON Vinol, our Cod Liver
and Iron Tonic.

Vinol contains the very elements
needed to replace weakness with
strength, just as it did for this
New York man.
81 am "a years of age and got into a
weak, rundown condition as a result of
the grippe. Our druggist suggested
Vinol to build me up and I noticed an
improvement soon after taking it, and
it has restored my strength so l can now
do a good days work. My wife has
also taken V1nol for a rundown Condi-
ton with splendid results
NOTE:-Your leading druggist has for
many years specially recommended Ninol
because he knows there is nothing better
than this famous Cod Liver and Iron Tonic
to create strength and build one up. The
formula of Vinol is on every label.
Your money back if it fails.

pleaded ruilty to smuggling in liquor
but the court refused to accept the
plea, holding that the respondent
should have a right to prove his claim
that he did not know what he was
loading on train whC.p he helped to
put some liquor on board and that he
did not know what the contents of
the package was although he sat
down in the same seat where the Ii
quor was placed on the car, while the
other fellow went into another car.
Judge Howe thought that such a
story would stand . little more ex-

plea Of guilty. The respondent has
been in the Jail at Newport since
