VOGT Copyright by Frank A. Munsey Co. Tells How Vinol Restores Strength and Vitality to the Weak, Worn-Out Ones in Her Charge. Rosary Hill Home, Hawthorne, N. Y- — "I have been at work among the sick and poor for nearly eighteen years, and whenever 1 have used Vinol for run down, weak or emaciated patients, they have been visibly benefited by it One patient a young woman, was so weak and ill she could hardly creep to my door for aid, and was leaning on a friend’s arm. I supplied Vinol to her liberally and in a month when she returned to thank me I hardly recognized her. She was strong, her color charming and her cheeks rounded out These words are uttered from my heart, in order that more people may know about Vinol, as there is nothing makes me happier in the world than to relieve the sick.”— Mother M. Alphonsa Lathrop.O.S.D., Hawthorne, N.Y. Such disinterested and reliable testi mony should convince everyone of the merits of Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron tonic to build up health and strength for all weakened and nervous conditions, whether caused from over work, worry or chronic coughs and colds.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Glenwish Johnson snt In the private office of the Acme-Johnson Grocery company, of which commanding es tablishment ho was president and prac tically sole owner. Curtis, the confidential young man of Johnson's own business rearing, was with him, as usual, nt this hour—4 o'clock—to receive his superior's final instructions for the day. “Well," concluded Air. Johnson in that Icy tone the meaning of which none knew better than Curtis, “that's seUlcd, If that Harden note is not pniil tomorrow you go ahead and fore close the mortgage. This presuming on old friendship and that sort of rot will not go. I've renewed It once, nud I’m tired of it," Curtis smiled and nodded ns he shut down the top of his chief’s desk. The latter had turned to go, but stopped suddenly. "By Jove!" he exclaimed. “I almost forgot My little girl Is twenty-one to day." The diplomatic Curtis merely smiled his congratulations. "Hnnd me my private check book, Curt," ordered Johnson. “I'll take It home with me." Emil, the porter of Charles Tlirnn’s leaf tobncco establishment on Water street New York, was the first mem ber of that firm's force to gnsp ns Edna, Glenwish Johnson’s daughter, alighted from her electric car and briskly entered his part of the house. "I should like to see Miss Grace Harden, Mr. Thran’s stenographer," she said sweetly. “Right in there, lady,” he said, pointing toward the inner office. “Hello, Edna,” came Thran’s voice, cheery anil cordial. "What on earth brings you way down to Water street 7" “1 came down to see Grace on bus! ness. Mr. Thran. You don’t mind let ting me speul; to ber in private for a few minutes? Thran patted the girl’s cheek with the familiarity of a very old friend and ceremoniously bowed himself out of his own office, softly closing the door behind him. Presently, however, the door of the private office opened and Edna stood at the threshold, her face rather pale and her pose unsteady “Please come in, Mr. Thran,” she pleaded tremulously. Mr. Thran re-entered his sanctum only to find that his troubles had just begun. His young stenographer was huddled In her chair disturbingly near the verge of tears “I can’t do a thing with her, Mr. Thran,” begnn Edna fiercely. “I do wish you would make her do It; 1 can’t.” “What Is it, Edna?" he inquired, with real concern. "The whole thing In a nutshell is this: Mr. Mnrden, this foolish girl’s fa ther, owes papa $5,000, and if it isn’t paid before 3 o'clock today papa says he will foreclose the mortgage or some thing, and Grace and Uncle Bully John Marden will be homeless. Now, I was twenty-one yesterday, and papa gave me a cheek for $5,000 as a birthday gift 1 was so happy about It, know ing that It would just cover the amount Uncle John owes papa, and now Grace —Grace—she won’t take it. Please make her take it, Mr. Thran.” “Please, Mr. Thran,” now came ap pealingly from the other girl, “please do not try to make me do this thing. God knows I appreciate Edna’s motives, and I love ber all the more for her kindly intentions. But I cannot take this money from her.” “Edna.” be said very tenderly, “you are a very kind, dear girl, and I am proud to know you. But you do not understand, my dear. I am truly very sorry for both of you.” »•••»•• Johnson would gladly have paid the five thousand himself, but was afraid of that man Curtis. After twelve years of patient work to make a real busi ness mun out of bis young confiden tial man Johnson did not dare to make eo sentimental a proposition. So he bad carefully planned it all. had presented Edna with the check and an admonition to Invest It as she saw fit and tben dexterously apprised her of Marden's indebtedness to him and the inevitable consequences of a failure to meet the note the next day. Jobnson only heard of tbe miscar riage of bis plan at about 2 o'clock that afternoon. Returning to bis pri vate office from luncheon at that hour, be found bis daughter on the verge of tears, with the check In her hand. "Oh. papa. Grace won’t take the check, won't let me help her—me. her best friend.” He turned to his daughter, smiling grimly. The girl placed the piece of paper she hud beeD bolding In bis bands. “Come along with me. dearie. You do not have to ask Grace Marden or any one else to pay that note. All you need do is to go over to the bank and pay it. But as my check Is not certi fied and. besides, you have never been Inside of a real commercial bank I'll go with yon If ,von will let me.” Edna rewarded ber father with a grateful bug and kiss, and they traversed the outer offices. Glen John son. accompanied by his daughter. Old newspapers for sale at this office at 25c. peri walked authoritatively up to tbe note hundred. teller’s window of one of New York’s largest banking institutions. “How do you do, Mr. Johnson?” greeted tbe innn behind the bars re spectfully. "All right," responded the other cor dially. “You have a note here for col- lectiou. $5,000. John Harden, maker, to my order. This lady wishes to puy it. Want me to certify It?" The note teller scrutinized the check. "Oh," remarked Smith, still smiling nmuscdly, "the check Is all right, of course, but 1 cau’t take it Tho note bus been paid, Mr. Johnson." Paid?" Most unusual thing about this col lection." resumed the teller. "It seems everybody wants to pay It. You are tho third party to attempt to do so. It wasn't more than ten minutes ago that Miss Grace Mnrden came In to pay it. She presented n certified check signed by Chnrles Thran"— "Oh, Mr. Thran!" Interposed Edna gleefully. "So he pnhl It himself. Isn't that noble of him?" Mr. Tlirnn’s Intentions were good," proceeded the teller, “but he woh too late by nt lenst half an hour: blit, of course," and here the teller risked a sly wink nt Edna's father,’"you know who renlly paid It, Mr. Johnson.” I! I!" exploded the latter. "Do you think I enine over here with my daugh ter to make a fool of myself?" “1—I—really, I beg your pardon,” stammered Smith. "But nnturnlly 1 thought you knew when your own Mr. Curtis paid the note." It's all right. Mr. Smith.” muttered Johnson, stroking his brow. “Come, Edun. let us go.” Johnson was still nervously clutching his daughter’s hand as they passed through tbe outer offices of the Acme- Johnson Grocery company. Just before lie ushered the girl Into the private office he ordered tho office boy to send In Mr. Curtis nt once. The culprit entered with his usual placid air. "Hear nnythlng about tho Marden note?" nslced Johnson lendingly. “Y’es, sir,” replied Curtis dryly. "The note has been paid.” "Oh, It has, has It?" nsked the chief sarcastically. "How do you know that since you haven't been to the bank to day?" The smile on the confidential young man’s face was serene. “I've been nt tbe bank, Mr. Johnson,' he said calmly. “I went there for the purpose of paying the Marden note.” “And you paid it?” "I paid it” “You paid it.” repented Johnson riled by the other’s nonchalance. "We know you paid It. but why? You—in heaven’s name! Why did you pay it? There is something behind all this and I want to know It" "There is a great deal behind it, Mr Johnson,” admitted Curtis cheerfully "My life’s happiness is behind it. Grace Mnrden has promised to become my wife." "And you thought you would do a very wise thing by paying her father’s note?” demanded Johnson. "I thought so," replied the young man with just the slightest note of doubt in his voice. Tbe elder man turned abruptly to Uis desk. "I am sure," Boothed bis daughter, “that yon are to be congratulated, Mr. Curtis. And your paying the note was a very noble act" “Tbank you,” replied CurtlB sheep ishly as he took tbe dainty hand she had extended. Ungnllantly and ungratefully, be wished tbe radiant young woman showering him with appreciation would suffei him to get away or—bet ter yet—would depart berself and leave him to have it out with her imperious, heartless father nlone. But suddenly Johnson rose to his feet. The young assistant’s worried expression gave way to a triumphant grin at sight of the changed counte nance of his chief, for the good, old fighting gleam shone In those eyes once more. Johnson handed the young man a check he had written. "Now, listen here, Curt" he said sharply. Curtis knew the tone and hearkened attentively. “This is an or der, and if it isn’t earried out to the letter I’ll fire you.” Johnson’s gray eyes softened bb he continued: ’’Curt, you have put your good self in a fix. Bully John’s daughter Is too proud to stand for what you have just dona Don't 1 know tbe girl? Now, boy, you go o^er to the bank and stop that fool deal you jnst mode. Now, you listen to me!" 08 Curtis made a gesture of protest. “Listen to sense, will yon, even if you are in lovel You go over to the bank and do as I say. Tben yon come back here with that abominable note. And tben it's my move. I'll write Marden a letter, agreeing to ex tend that Infernal note of his another four months. I’ll tell him—er—any thing—changed my mind or something. Well, never mind what I tell him; that's none of your business Dor," turning to his daughter, who hud laughed audibly, "any of yours either, madam. That saves the girl’s pride and relieves the old man's anxiety. Now. listen to me, you two—two—well, never mind!" for Edna had laughed Ir reverently again. “1 want you to know this much. I pay the $5.1X10—do you get that? I—Glenwish Johnson—und no other living man. or woman either! Now. Curt, scoot!" Curtis huvlng "scooted." father and daughter faced each other with a new and better understanding. "I am so proud of you.” she mur mured. Glen Johnson caught the tears in her voice even before he saw them on her cheeks “You mustn't cry about it. girlie." he said tenderly. But she did cry about It. while her happy father held her very close to his breast, for lie knew that every tear she sherl was a token of her uew love and reverence for himself. For the Boys.

Portugal is to-day in a singular situ ation in reference to tho groat war German forces have invaded Portuguese Angola, on the western coast of Afri ca, and fighting has been going on there between German and Portuguese force for a couple of months, yet Germany has not declared war on Portugal, the German minister remains in Lisbon and the Portuguese minister is still in Ber | lin. Fresh Portuguese troops, numbering about 4,00(1, are ready to embark for Angola. Some orders for equipment have been placed in the United States, One explanation of this curiouB situs tion is that Germany has hesitated to take the decisive step by declaring war, because the 210 German vessels now in terned in Portuguese ports would auto matically become prizes of war. The relations between Great Britain and Portugal are peculiar. According to the treaty signed in 1002, after the Boer war, during which the British had scrupulously observed the neutrality of Delagoa Bay, it was agreed that Brit ish troops might pass through Portu guese territory in Africa, and that Portuguese troops might pass through British territory there, and that both nations would combine to protect the territory of either if menaced by a third Hostile nation. Thus the Portu guese and British colonieB are at war with the German colonieB in Africa, while in Europe Portugal and Germany are at peace. They Are 70 Years Old. "For some time past my wife and myself were troubled with kidney trou ble,” writes T. B. Carpenter, Harris burg, Pa. “We suffered rheumatic pains all through the body. The first few doses of Foley’s Kidney Pills relieved us. After taking five bottles between ub we are entirely cured. Although we are both in the seventies we are as vig orous as we were thirty years ago.” Foley’s Kidney Pills stop sleep-disturb ing bladder weakness, backache, rheu matism, dizziness, swollen joints and sore muscles.

Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound The many testimonial letters that we are continually pub lishing in the newspapers—hundredsof them—are all genu ine, true and unsolicited expressions of heartfelt gratitude for the freedom from suffering that has come to these women solely through the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Money could not buy nor any kind of influence obtain such recommendations; you may depend upon it that any testimonial we publish is honest and true—if you have any doubt of this write to the women whose true names and addresses arc always given, and learn for yourself. Read this one from Mrs. Waters: Cam dun, N.J.—“1 was sick for two years with nervous spells, and my kidneys were affected. I had a doctor all the time and used a galvanic buttery, but nothing did me any good. I was not able to go to bed, but spent my time on a couch or in a sleeping-chair,and soon became almost a skeleton. Finally my doctor wont away for his health, and my husband heard of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and got mo some. In t wo months I got relief and now I am like a new woman anil am at my usual weight. I recommend your medicine to every one and so does my husband.”—Mrs. Tillub Waters, 1135 Knight St., Camden, N.J. And this one from Mrs. Haddock: Utioa, Ok i. a.—“I was weak and nervous, not aide to do my work and scarcely able t-o he oil my feet. I had backache, headache, palpi tation of the heart, trouble with my bowels, and inflammation. Since taking the Lydia E. Pinkham’s vegetable Compound I am better than I have been for twenty years. 1 think it. is a wonderful medi cine and 1 have recommended it to others.”—Mrs. Mary Ann Had dock, Utica, Oklahoma. Now answer this question if you can. Why should a woman continue to suffer without first giving Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound a trial ? You know that it has saved many others—why should it fail in your case? For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been tlui standard remedy for fe male ills. No one sick with woman’s ailments does justice to herself if she does not, try this fa mous medicine made from roots uml herbs, it lias restored so many Buffering women to health. na^^Writeto LYDIA E.PIN’Kl!AM MEDICINECO.
