CHEERFUL NEWS

For Feeble Old People. As one grows old the waste of the system becomes more rapid than repair, the organs act more slowly and less effectually than in youth, the circulation is poor, the blood thin and digestion weak. Vinol. our delicious cod liver and

iron tonic without oil is the Ideal strengthencr and body-builder for old folks, for it contains the very elements needed to rebuild wasting tissues and replace weakness with strength. Vlnol also fortifies the system against colds and thus prevents pneumonia. A grand niece or Alexander Hamilton over eighty years of age once remarked: "Vinol is a god-send to old people. Thanks to Vlnol I have a hearty appetite, sleep soundly, feel active and well. It is the finest tonic and strength creator I have ever used." If Vinol fails to' build up the feebl?. old people, and rceate strength we will return your money. L. Harry Wels, Druggist, Hammond, Ind.

$11.70 Three-quarter coats are considered the smartest this season, and one of the new plain designs is illustrated. The pattern, however, allows for cutting the coat full length, fact, the thick soft materials now used do not need this. Wool velour is one of the new cloths which is being widely used for smart long coats, and this comes in a variety of colorings. A coat of this material needs a lining, and a soft pale satin is the prettiest choice. We have net seen the last of blanket or double faced cloths, and many of the best looking three-quarter and full length coats are being made of this. It is much softer than last year's cloth, however, and does

not require a lining. The trimming feature in most of these wraps is the use of very ornamental buttons, three or four large ones fastening the front end smaller ones decorating cuffs or back.
