So many people are asking how to recover ‘their strength after severe sickness that we are’publishing this Information for their benefit. After gnippe, pleurisy, pneumonia or any illness what you need is new strength and better blood. The most certain way to get this is by taking Vinol,-our delicious cod liver and iron preparation. Mrs. M. T. Gardner, Chicago, Ill., says: “After a very serious opera- tion I was a total invalid for nearly a year and a convalescent for months thereafter, I gave the remedies of a number of eminent specialists a thor- cugh trial, but without deriving the slighest benefit. Vinol was recom- mended. Without the least faith in the merits of the medicine, I'took it faithfully, and it seemede to bring back the old color to my cheeks and the elasticity to my step which I had despaired of ever recovering. I can say, conscientiously, that for ner- vous, run-down people,- Vinol is an excellent remedy.” Try a bottle of Vinol.

They hooted the offi- cer, who at once halted his company and sent a squad of armed soldiers in pursuit.. The infantrymen succeeded in catching only one man, a lame shoe- maker, who resisted arrest. Von Forstner then came up and de- liberately struck him on the.head with the sharpened edge of his saber. The wound is a dangerousi one. The fresh incident has created such tension that serious bloodshed is fear- ed unless the Ninty-ninth infantry is transferred immediately.
