DISTURBS AUDIENCE If you have any furiosity about the number of people here who have bad coughs just notice the next time you are at church or in any public gathering. You will hear someone coughing almost all the time. We have said before in this paper that there is an unusual amount of bronchial trouble now, and that Is because so many people neglect it. There Is no ercuse for letting a cough hang on for months and years. The proof of this fact is that a remedy which cures stubborn cases right t-long would cure at first if taken then 0.8 it should be. Mrs. E. B. Millard of Middletown, X. Y., says. "Having used Vinol for chron

ic bronchitis which I have had for three or four years I can recommend it highly. It has given me very satisfactory results." Take Vinol right away, and it will build you up, and stop your cough. It is doing this for thousands of others. We pay back your money if you are not satisfied with Vinol. Leo H. Fine, druggist, Richmond, Ind.

(National Nwa Aaaectatlou) NEW YORK. Feb. 21. One of the most interesting features of the bien nial convention of the Young Men's Christian Association in New York State, which 'met at the local headQuarters here today 'for a two days' session, consists of the reports ot officers and committees showing the remarkable growth and prosperity of the organisation. According to these reports the total membership in this i;ate now exceeds 60,000, while the association owns 86 buildings with an segregate value exceeding $10,000,000. Biliousness, sour stomach, indigestion, irregular bowels, diy spells, headaches, bad breath, if not corrected will ruin your health. Start today by taking a small dose of Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea after each meal and at bed time; it has made more people well and happy than any other remedy. 35c. A. G. Luk?n. $ Bagdad From Afar. Like most oriental cities. Bagdad looks her best from a distance. You miss the filthy, narrow streets where two horses csn hardly walk abreast and behold a vision of luxuriant date groves, out of which rise little islands of green domes and graceful minarets. In the days of its splendor the East India company maintained in the city of the caliph a resident, with a generous establishment. Nowadays we are content with the usual modest consular service.
