will be present and there will be

games and contests to Interest the

"THE WEAK SPOT IN THE CREW" Are you a man of power and endurance or do you topple over when near the goal?

Medical Authorities Discover That Without the Life-Giving Vitamines Which Are Now Lost from Many Everyday Foods, There Can be No Fullness of Health, Energy and .Vitality Physician Explains Why People Become Weak, Nervous and Rundown, and Tells How to Get Vitamines in Vitamon.

New Torlc (Special) Whether It be in the Race of Boats or In the Race of JJfe it takes.mlghty strength and tireless energy to withstand the terrific strain and reach the goal of Victory. For years countless tonics and preparations have come and gone, but now Science has brought forth the amazing facts of how people become weakened, nervous, run-down, thin and prematurely old, often almply because of the lack of those life-giving substances the vitamines which authorities declare absolutely necessary to vigorous health, physical power, mental vigor find even to life itself. In explaining the startling success being obtained when practically everything else had failed. Dr. John J. Rudolph, a Former Health Commissioner ,late of New York Hospital Staffs, and a Graduate of the University of Baltimore, says: r "If I were asked What are Vitamlnesr I should say 'They are life they are energy they are power they give strength and beauty to your body and vigor to your mind. So rapid, so pronounced and so amazing are the results produced by the concentrated vitamines and other health-giving elements as combined in Vitamon that no matter what anyone says. I do not believe that there is anything whatso

ever to which this discovery can be compared." When you see a man contented to merely 'hold a Job' .man who has no other Interest than remaining in his own rut, who is perfectly satisfied with what comes In his pay envelope every week, and Is willing to go through life without ever amounting to much, you will find that his lack of Interest and enthusiasm Is caused by a lowered vitality and a weakened physical condition. He either has a poor appetite or else he is not getting the proper nourishment out of what ho eats to build health and strength. Nature puts in certain raw foods a vital life-giving substance which scientists have given the name vitamines. but even though you were to select the very foods which do contain vitamines you would probably not get enough to do you much good, for present methods of preparations and cooking rob these foods of their vitamines before they reach our tables. Therefore, the man who is weakened, nervous and run down must get these vitamines in some other way such as by taking the concentrated form called Vitamon if he expects to make himself a keen, red-blooded fellow with the strength, energy, ambition and courage to succeed. By keeping himself fit with Vitamon he at once becomes more powerful mentally, better able to use the talents and ability he possesses and his buoyant health

makes him so active and alert that he is always ready to reach out and grasp every opportunity which comes his way. Such a man can easily take the leadership and hold it he has the vim and the energy, the brain-power and the money, too. There are. In my opinion, thousands of men who by taking a short course of Vitamon might readily build themselves up Into a position of health, success and power Instead of being nervous, irritable weaklings haunted by fear through the day and totured by sleeplessness and depression at night. Not until you have taken Vitamon yourself and felt its up-buildlng effects can you form any idea of the vast difference It may quickly make in your health, strength, mental vigor and physical appearance."

SPECIAL GUARANTEE If after natag Vitamon you are not entirely satisfied with the results and are not convinced that it has been worth to you far more than yon paid for it, the trial will coat you absolutely nothing. .Yea are to be the sole judge. Vitamon may now be obtained In thla city from all lending druggiata, auch aa A. G. I.ak, Qulsley'a, Oaffler A Spanagel, Thlatlethwaite.

low R.Ro Rate Increase Will Touch Family Purse No one can hope to avoid paying his share of the railroad worker's wages and the cost of new railway extensions and improvements, by merely refusing to travel. "Every pound of food eaten, every ton of fuel burned,, every garment worn and every stick of timber entering into the construction of homes will contribute its share" to the gigantic total, reasons the Washington Post, which estimates that it means a per capita tax of $12.00 on every man, woman and child in the country for higher freight rates alone, and perhaps $15.00, when all the increases are taken into consideration. In view of such estimates THE LITERARY DIGEST believes it worth while to gather for its readers the views of leading authorities in various important industries on the precise effect of the new rates in their respective fields. In some cases the statements were found in newspaper interviews, in others they come in response to direct telegram and telephone queries. At any rate, this summary of opinion has been incorporated in an interesting and instructive article in THE LITERARY DIGEST for August 14th, 1920. You will wish to read it.
