see my first shrapnel burst It makes
a tiny, lazidly-floating cloud of white
smoke over the hils. Through my
glasses I see an Austrian aeroplane
near the white cloud. Another cloud
and another and another break into
view. The Russians are trying for
the aeroplane. The aviator knows it
too. There's no use of his trying to
climb above the dangerous shrapnel,
for they have an upward range of
over two miles, so the machine turns
its tail and starts toward the Austri

These are deadly cubic miles of air

Mother Tells How She Was Cured
By VinoL
Philadelphia, Pa. "My little girl
aged thirteen years, had the whoop
ing cough, which settled into a chron
ic cough, with a run-down system and
lung trouble. She had to stay at
home from school while being treat
ed by the doctor, and nothing seemed
to help her. I saw Vinol advertised
arfd decided to try it I soon noticed
an improvement and after giving her
four bottles, her cough is gone, her
strength lias returned and she has a
good appetite. We think there is
nothing like Vinol." Mrs. M. White,
Philadelphia, Pa.
What Vinol did for this little girl
it will do for others, for it is the heal
ing, curative, tissue building influ
ence of the medicinal elements of the
extract of cods' livers aided by the
blood making, strengthening proper
ties of tonic iron which makes Vinol
so successful in such cases, and chil
dren like to take Vinol because it is
pleasant and it is much better for
them than "cough medicines" which
have no strengthening power, while
Vinol throws off the cough.
Remember, if Vinol fails to benefit,
we return your money. J. E. Hood

of the stomach. He sought treatment
with but little relief. At times it
seemed that he would have to give
up hope. ,
He took Mayr's Wonderful Stomach
Remedy and found immediate benefit
He wrote:
"For years I have suffered from a
disease which puzzled doctors. They
termed it catarrh of the stomach,
saying the only hope would be a
change of climate, and that in all
probability I would never get well.
Then I heard of your remedy. One
trial bottle gave me instant relief. It
made me feel like a new man. Your
full course of treatments has about
cured me. Several of my friends have
also been cured."
Thousands of others suffering from
maladies of the stomach have found
relief as quickly as Mr. Davenport
did. This remarkable remedy is
known all over the country. The first
dose proves no long treatment
