HOW CHRONIC COUGHS
Are Being Cured by Vinol An Ac count of One Case. New Haven, Conn. "I was troubled with a most persistent chronic cough for a long time and had tried so many remedies and prescriptions without benefit that I was discouraged. I was persuaded by my friends to try Vinol. I must say that I had little confi dence, but I made up my mind to give it a fair trial. Before I finished my first bottle of Vinol I commenced to notice an improvement in my general condition. After taking the second bottle, my cough left me, and I must nay I never felt better in my life, all due to the use of Vinol. I can also recommend Vinol to anyone in a rundown condition as the best possible remedy." (Xame furnished on request.) It is the combined action of the medicinal elements of the cods' livers aided by the blood-making and strength-creating properties of tonic iron which makes Vinol so efficient in curing chronic coughs, colds and bronchitis at the same time building up the weakened, run-down system. Vinol contains no oils and tastes good. Try a bottle of Vinol with the understanding that jour money will be returned if it does not help you. joo H.

Reynolds, on Superior avenue, at 8 o'clock. The rooms of this beautiful home were very charmingly arranged for the occasion, for daffodils, the favorite flower of the bride, had been chosen for the wedding decoralions, and with the graceful southern smilax' vines, converted the rooms into bowers of beauty. Before an alter of palms, lighted by many candles, the ceremony was performed by Rev. Dr. Charles A. Campbell, pastor of Third Street Presbyterian church, and Rev. Franklin Swift, of Linden Avenue Baptist church. The white ribbons which outlined the path of the bridal party, were stretched by John Huffman. Rufus King, Mason Lytle and Gardner Reynolds. The bridesmaids, Miss Janet Reynolds, sister of the bride, and Miss Rebecca Huffman, sister of the groom, were attired in charming girlish gowns of white lingerie and lace, and each carried a boquet of narcissus. Miss Hazel Carr, the maid of honor, was very fair in a gown of yellow chiffon over white satin, with gold embroidery, and she carried a large boquet of early spring daffodils. The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, Lewis G. Reynolds, was a picture of lovely young womanhood in her bridal robes of white satin, her gown being fashioned with rare old Duchesse lace of exquisite pattern, which had been used in her mother's wedding gown. She wore the wedding gift of the groom, a beautiful pendant of diamonds and pearls, and her wedding veil of tulle was confined by a wreath of orange blossoms. She carried a shower bouquet of white lilacs and Poet's narcissus. The bridal party was awaited at the altar by the groom, and best man, his brother, George Huffman. The Heidelberg , orchestra, which played the wedding music, took up the joyus strains of the Mendelssohn Wedding March at the conclusion of the ceremony, and following the season of congratulation, a buffet- wedding repast was served by Miss Shoup, the spring colors of yellow and green being carried out in the appointments.

FADS AND FASHIONS
New York, Feb. 23. During the past few seasons fashion has brought many odd and freakish things, some even of appalling ugliness, but these caricatures were to be found almost exclusively in French fashion papers! and in the display windows of certain! shops catering to women eager for notoriety. Women of taste and re-j finemen'i. kept aloof from the most J extreme styles and in really good society freakish and outre styles are everywhere tabooed. Aside from these extreme vagaries, present modes offer many picturesque and charming ele-, ments. I The fashionable figure is more sup-j pie than it once was. That is something to be truly thankful forr. The stout woman, stiffly boarded up in straight front corsets, which makes her figure something with the resemblance to nature's original design, is still to be seen, but she is not in the, fashion so far as figure is concern-! ed and the corset makers are gradu-' ally changing their ideals and meth ods and gradually force the change upon their customers. Women are still to be of the straight front type, but they are not to slope backward. The front line is really to be straight, and the waist is to have very nearly, if not quite its natural size, which decreases the emphasis of the hip curves, and the hips well, one does away with their redundancy if possible; if not, one does all one can j to diminish their apparent size. Anj artist corsetiere can accomplish much in this direction. The bust should be rather high and not very full, and the general Impression given througout the whole figure should be that of ease and freedom, a result which may be obtained through unboned cor-J sets or elactic inserts in the corsets and clever corset lines without going! to the extreme of eliminating the corset altogether. As a matter of fact the modish figure is sanely natural, ; though some of the clothes draped ov-j er it distort it and make it seem ab-j surd, and the woman who can't or won't reduce her hips will find the, prescribed lines trying. The dressmakers already have in: hand quantities of one-piece trotting frocks in silk, which will give service under coats now if needed, and; will be ready for warm spring days.! Some of these are in fringed foulards i but the best looking so far seem toj be in the plain dark silks of the crepe or dull satin order. A smart little i black frock of this kind, finishing at; the throat line with only a little de-i tachable collar of net lace or lingerie,' showing above the black or made with j a Dutch or other turndown collar, and; a general air of tailored simplicity, will be an exceedingly practical and comfortable asset for spring and summer, and a coat to match will make the frock still more useful. There are many coats and skirts of black satin or satin crepe in making too, with a fair sprinkling of similar suits in very dark blues and browns. The black and white models multiply so that the combination bids fair to be as popular in the spring and summer as it has been during the winter, only in most of the summer frocks the white naturally predominates, the black being the relieving color, while in winter frocks the order was reversed. Some of the prettiest things of this kind are in fine white cotton voile or marquisette effectively embroidered in black, but there are simple French lawn and linen tub frocks whose note of black is cleverly introduced through the use of white and black materials as trimmings. Never were the inexpensive cotton stuffs prettier and there are innumerable models both charming and simple. Each year brings better values in the tub frock of this type and there are makers who specialize in well made by severely simple frocks of Gingham, Dimity, Lawn, Linen, etc., at very reasonable prices. The new dimities deserve special mention, for in color and design they are prettier than they ever were before. The same may be said of the ginghams and even the percales usually regarded as practical and serviceable rather than chic, have taken on such daintiness of color and design that they make most desirable summer frocks for hard wear. White serge is as popular as ever. Every year, when the Southern season comes around this material soon begins to assume an importance which it retains until late in the autumn, and indeed in some cases through the entire year. The manufacturers have various names for the many fancy weaves of soft white wool, but the general public is prone to lump them all under the name of serge, excepting only a few distant weaves. II ii

Christian EndeavorHome Missions
BY REV. S. Prayer Meeting Topic For the Week Beginning Feb. 26, 1911. Topic A missionary journey around the world. II. Mission in the United States Csouth). Isa- lv, 13. Kdited by Rev. Sherman A Doyle, D. D. The southern ' part of the United States Is a great missionary field. The southern people themselves have no need of the missionary. They are, ierhaps, the most devout and conservative Christian people in uur land. The need of the missions is not, therefore, a need of southerners, but iu the south there are several classes of what we call in the mission work the exceptional populations of the United States. Of such classes three of the largest and most needy, so far as the gospel is concerned, are to be found in the southlandthe negroes, the mountain whites and the Mexicans in the United States. Each one of these classes is very large in numbers and is most morally and spiritually degraded. 1. The southern negroes of this race of people, theu, is a population of O.OOO.OOo as against 1,000,000 in the north and these latter more widely distributed thau are the multitudes of the south. Some states ud especial ly some cities have a larger black population than white, and these were a standing menace to this great section of our country, once so great aud pow erful iu all things, before the war plunged them into almost dire poverty. But nobly they went to work after the "carpetbaggers" had been forced out, and the south iu a different way Is again becoming richer aud more prosperous. Sons and even daughters of southern parentage, who in the days before the war would have considered It a great indignity to have engaged In industrial business or in labor of any kind, with their sons and daughters, the present generation, have dropped the past aud gone to work, and some of it hard work, to redeem the south and to build up a new south, and, moreover, they are meeting with wonderful success. Nor do they fear the darky, and perhaps if the north, even as missionaries, had remained out of the south and the negro had not been given a vote they themselves might have handled the vexed questions before them with far greater success than has so far been accomplished. They know the negro, bow to keep him In his place, where he must be kept, when he outnumbers the white population, for a superior race, no matter how great the difference In population, will never be ruled by an inferior race. Brains always win in such a conflict. But being freed and given the right of franchise immediately changed his position, and in many thousands of occasions darky docility turned back almost to African savagery, with disastrous results both to white and black. But these millions have souls which need to be saved, and our greatest denomination began missionary work among them, consisting of elementary education, teaching various kinds of industries, and especially the gospel, which is still greatly needed regardless of our schools and churches. 2. The mountain whites. In the southern mountains in Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee another peculiar population exists numbering 2,000,000 souls. These are the people who were descendants of the Scotch and Scotch, Irish, who opposed slavery and lost their all In the Revolutionary war, were driven farther and farther back into the mountains until they were cut off from civilization and were like a lost race until a recent date. No people have needed the gospel more than they. Their moral degradation was almost complete, but the mountains were opened up, and these descendants of the sturdiest of a religious ancestry were found and their awful manner of life disclosed. Missionaries, day and Sabbath school teachers have poured In, and the miracle in American missions today is the Improvement of this "lost race." 2. The Mexicans in the western part of the southern states. Here there live together Mexicans of the lowest caste, Indians and half breeds by the thousands. They are among the most reckless and toughest of any people in the United States. Yet they need the gospel and are getting it, but with no great effects except it be the children in the schools, the method most often used. BIBLE READINGS.
