This is the Best Time I OLD PEOPLE
Right now before you start your Spring house-cleaning
is the best time to have your house wired for electricity.
Have the wiring job completed before the decorators ar-
rive. By having your house decorated after it is wired,
you can prove by actual test how valuable Electric Light
is in keeping walls and ceilings clean.

HE TOLD HOW TO REGAIN
STRENGTH AND VIGOR
As one grows old the waste of the
system becomes more rapid than re-
pair, the organs act more slowly and
less effectively than in youth, the dr
culation is poor, the mood thin and
digestion weak.
Vinol, our delicious cod liver and
iron tonic without oil is the ideal
strengthener and body-builder for Old
folks, for H contains the very 4 ele-
ments needed to rebuild wasting .tis-
sues' and replace weakness with
strength. Vinol also fortifies the
system against colds and thus pre-
vents pneumonia.
Mrs. Mary Ivey, of Columbus,
says: "If people only knew the
Vinol does old people, I am sure
would be unable to supply the
maijd. I never took anything before
that di dme so much good as Vinol.
It is the finest tonic and strength
creator I ever used in my life." .
If Vinol fails to build up the feeble,
old people, and create strength
will return your money. Theo. Schir-
macher, Druggist, Brenham, T«xa&
