Stomach Troubles
Cured by Vino!
HERE IS PROOF
“ I suffered so long from stomach
trouble and indigestion, that I lost
flesh rapidly — \ IXOL cured me
after everything else had failed. It
strengthened my digestive organs—
gave me a hearty appetite, and I
can eat anything without the slight
est distress. 1 do not believe any
thing equals \ 1X< >L for stomach
trouble and indigestion.”
W. E. \Y VTERIIOUSF.,
Portland, Me.
Mr. Thos. G .Wallace, of Detroit,
Mich., writes, ‘ I suffered for years
from- a chronic stomach trouble.
VIXOL entirely cured me after
everything el-e lud failed.”
It is the curative medicinal ele
ments of the cod s liver, combined
with the strengthening properties
of tonic iron contained in VIXOL,
which makes it so successful in re
storing perfect digestion, and r.t
the same time building up the weak
ened run-down system.
Try a bottle of VIXOL with the
understanding that your money will
be returned if it does not help you.

English Public V -ccinator Paces
Problem in Case of Child Said
. to Be "Half Italian.”
London According to the nritish1
Medical Journal a public vaccinator!
has been confronted with 4 curious^
problem. The father of a child who
had attained the nge of 4 months,
and whose name appeared on the pub
lic vaccinator's list, wrote to that ofll
clal a letter In which he explained
that he was not, unlike many Eng
lishmen. a conscientious objector to
vaccination But his wife, so he ex
plained, was an Italian, and desired to
bring up the child in the manner fol
lowed In her native country, where
the child would be vaccinated at the
school ago s:i l not In early Infancy.
"My wife wished me to say to you,”
concluded the communication, "that
the child is half Italian, and If the
English government enforces va< eina
tlon it must undertake to confine the
effects cf vaccination to the English
portion of the infant. She claims the
protection of the Italian consul for the
Italian half of the boy.”
The question, which Is actually
pending, has brought no definite sug
gestions from the vaccinators, and it
is held that compared to the prob
lem presented Solomon had a com
paratively easy task when he handed
down his historic decision.
WINTER BLESSINGS
When winds are cold and ice is on,
and sleet is piled o'er walk and
lawn, and we must bundle up or
freeze, must have the grip, and
(•ought and sneeze, we’re apt to sigh
for good old days, got s- ntirnental
over Lazee, and wish that summer
were on new; we’d like to hoe and
lake and plow. But stop a moment,
friend and think, before you let
; nir heart thus sink. For instance
think of flies and gnats; the howl
ing dogs and fighting cats, and
phonographs—for windows wide just
to draw night sound inside. And
then those busy little ants that
o'er your food so swiftly prance; and
don't forget those "jiggers” fierce,
which your anatomy will pierce. A
million score of insects sing, that
land on you and try to sting. With
these, mosquitoi s, your old friends,
that love to use their probing ends;
and heat and drouth, hot dust ga
lore; lawn-mowing, too, until you’re
sore. Though you like weather aw
ful warm, may move down south to
miss the storm; Nebraska suits us
(to a “T”, no climate better, seems
to me.—Harold NeibUng.

GREAT DI8PLAY OF PUGILISTIC
ABILITY
A Lively ’Bout At The McPherson
Hotel Yesterday After
Noon
There was quite a little disturbance
at the Hotel McPherson yesterday af
ternoon which caused quite an ex
cited crowd to gather. It is claimed
to be equal almost to the Johnson*
Jeffries fight only there was no belt
to be given to the best man.
One was donated a pair of shin
ers, a bloody noce, a game leg, be
sides a few other bruises here and
there. The other fellow had a few
bruises, none that he would be very
pleased to show. The second round
was stopped by an honorable gentle
man because the rain was coming
down pretty lively and he feared
the pugilists might get wet.
They were picked up and toted in
to the hotel where admiring friends
washed them up and gave them the
proper dressing down of the true
pugilist, after which they swore;
friendship, though because of the
swoolen peepers the one could not
see who his friends were. Both were
satisfied with their donations.
The Farmer's Lesson
»‘III Silas Hoggs had three strong boy
Named Bill and Tom and Ed;
They longed for distant city joys
So one day all three fled;
Old Silas turned to science then
When gone were arms so stout;
Machinery did the work that men
Had heretofore turned out. x
And then the boys came back next
year.
Vacation days to spend,
They found, insteady of being drear,
Farm life was joy, sans end;
Electric lights blazed all around
In every room and nook;
Machinery plowed the fertile ground
And did all the work hut cook.
Then Tom and Bill ami Brother Ed
Agreed they all would stay,
But Silas -Boggs just shook his head
And murmured gently: “Nay;
You quit this bed for city perch,
So back to town you drill;
You left me sadly in the lerch,
But science never will.”

The Spotter
Street car companies and rail
way companies employ "spotters" to
watch the dishonest conductors in
tlie act of "knocking down" fares.
Largo manufacturing establishemnts
hire detectives to hound the steps of
trusted employees. An elaborate sys
tem of spotting is growing up in
and around American industrial sys
tems, that is as vicious as the sys
tem of espionage inaugurated by
the late pasha cf Turkey. it is
argued that it' is necessary in order
to safeguard the company’s inter
ests. It may be necessary, but its
necessity does net relieve its ensert
ial badness. Men are not made bet
ter by being doubted and spi d upo.i.
By placing responsibilitii s upon men
we make them measure up to the
heavier duties, and by trusting men
we awake n in them the sense and
disposition called dependableness.
Bank Account for Every Child.

When Tennycon Slipped In the Mud.
It had been a stormy evening, and |
the night was of pitchy darkness when
I started out. against invitations to re
main, to go lo the Albion. Tennyson 1
insisted on showing me a nearer way.
but in tin* darkness got off his bear
ings, Kidding me walk close behind
him, we went fonvaid through the
mud. when suddenly 1 found myself
pre ipitntcd six or seven feet down
ward. Sitting in the mud, I called on
the poet to pause, but it was too late;
ho was speedily seated beside me.
This was seeing the laureate of Eng
land in a new light, or, rather, hearing
him under a novel darkness. Covered
with mud, groping about, he improved
the odd occasion with such an inno
cent run of witticisms and anecdotes
that I had to conclude that he had
reached a condition which had discov
ered in him unexpected resources. His
deep bass vni e came through the con
genial darkness like mirthful thunder,
while lie groped until he found a path.
"This should have happened after din
ner!" he exclaimed. "Do not mention
this to the temperance folk.”—M. D.
