Continuing to be thankful from
last week I will ask pardon for men

There are my friends, true and tried,
that are ever ready to stand by In
time or need and trial. They are
mot waiting till I am dead to say en-

flowers along my pathway. I am
thankful for friends.
There are my enemies, too. When
they hare—about me and*the public
have found it out, they have built
my reputation for right God bless

that he was Illustrating a potent

The Real Christmas Day.
Of course most ot us believe that

have been born exactly 1905, years.
Such , however. Is not the case. Onr

TT1 „ is fast superseding old-fashioned cod liver oil and
* ■*■■*■*■”■* emulsions because, without a drop of oil or
disagreeable feature, it contains all the medicinal elements
of cod liver oil, actually taken from £rcslx cods’ livers.
By our process the oil, having no value either as a medicine or
food, is separated from the medicinal elements and thrown
away. Unlike old-fashioned cod liver oil and emulsions,
Vinol is deliciously palatable, agreeable to the weakest stom
ach, and therefore unequaled as a body builder and strength
creator for old people, puny children, weak, run-down men
and women, after sickness, and for all pulmonary diseases.
Everything: Vinol contains is named on the label.
OUR GUARANTEE —We hare such faith in VINOL that If you will
take it we promise If it Joes not benefit or cure you we will return you
your money without question. We take all the risk.

several dollars and some time. Is

The Key That Unlocks the Door to
Long Living
The men of eighty five and ninety
years of age are not the rotund well
fed, but the thin spare men are the
ones who live to old age. Be as care
ful as he will, however, a man past
middle age will occasionally eat too
much, or of some article of food not
suited to ills constitution and will
need a dose of Chamberlain’s Stom
ach and Liver Tablets to cleanse and
Invigorate his stomach and regulate
his liver and bowels. When this is
done, there is no reason why tho av- j
erage man should not live to old age
