try it. Now I have a good appetite,
sleep soundly and am well and strong.
Every nervous, weak, run-down woman
should try Vinol. —Mrs. D. W. Kerns.
Vinol is a delicious cod liver and iron
tonic, without oil, which we guarantee

tion and make pure healthy blood.

CONNER’S BARN BURNS
Blaze Wiped out Building
And Contents
Fire which broke out at an early
hour Monday morning destroyed
the barn and its entire contents
of Mr. J. R. iConner, of Indian
Springs street. The alarm was
turned in about 6:30 but the fire
did its w'ork so quickly that the
building was in ruins before the
fire department arrived.
Mr. Conner had been to the
barn to feed the stock and milk
and saw nothing out of the way.
The fire was detected by one of
Mr. W. M. Andrews’ small sons.
When Mr. Conner got on the
scene he could have put the fire
out easily but played safe by get
ting all the stock out of the burn
ing building. A large amount of
corn, hay, oats and other feed
stuffs were destroyed. The loss
was partially covered by insur
ance.
The fire originated in a feed
room and might have been start
ed by a tramp, several of whom
are said to have been sleeping
there recently.
A CHILD’S TONGUE
SHOWS IF LIVER OR
BOWELS ARE ACTIVE
If cross, feverish, sick, bil
ious, give fruit laxative
at once
Every mother realizes, after
giving her children “California
Syrup of Figs,” that this is their
ideal laxative, because they love
its pleasant taste and it thorough
ly cleanses the tender little stom
ach, live r and bowels without
griping.
When cross, irritable, feverish
or breath is bad, stomach sour,
look at the tougue. Mother! If
coated, give a teaspoonful of this
harmless “fruit laxative,” and
in a few hours all the foul, consti
pated waste, sour bile, and undi
gested food pases out of the
bowels, and you have a well, play
ful child again. When its little
system is full of cold, throat sore,
has stomach ache, diarrhoea, indi
gestion, colic—remember, a good
“inside cleansing” should always
be the first treatment given.
Millions of mothers keep “Cali
fornia Syrup of Figs” handy;
they know a teaspoonful today
saves a sick child tomorrow. Ask
your druggist for aSO-cent bottle
of “California Syrup of Figs,”
which has directions for babies,
children of all ages and grown
ups printed on the bottle. Be
ware' of counterfeits sold here,
so don’t be fooled. Get the gen
uine, made by “California Fig
Syrup Company.” adv.
