' Miss Lea Dumas writes from Ma
lone, N. Y., saying: i was in a badly
run-down condition for severar weeks,
but two bottles of Vinol put me on
my feet again and made me strong
and well. Vinol has done me mora
good than all the other medicine I
ever took."
If the careworn, haggard men and
yomen, the pale, sickly children and
feeble old folks around here would
follow Miss Dumas' example, they,
too, would soon be able to say that
Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron
remedy, had built them up and made
them strong.

THE
The million dollar motio.i picture spectacle, "The White Ghost o( Disaster" which
is hooked here for the first tims in this city at the AIRDOME on next Wednesclay,
July 8th is unquestionably a marvelous him. The film? present the story of the Titanic
in actual motion, and bring right before the eye the collision with the giant iceberg as
well as everything that happened before and after. We see the explosion of the big boil
ers, the disturbance among .the passengers, and the water gushing into the different com
partments of the ship. The wireless room is slunva. and all that took place within. The
principal characters are recognized all the way through the film;, in fac' every detail in
this, the greatest marine tragedy, is worked out with greatest care and the patrons of the
AIRDOME are assured an unusual attraction in the "White Gnost of Disaster."
