Springtime Is famous for its ability to
abstract energy from the human make
up. A lax individual remains and ts said
to be suffering from "spring-fever."
In ye days gone by it was deemed r.ec
cessary for everyone in April to take
large doses of strong tasting medicine.
But this has all changed. Now most in
telligent people have learned that "the
less medicine the better." It's like whis
keybest in bottles and perfectly safe as
long as it's left in them.
It is little more than natural that we
should feel a bit lethargic as the first
warm days arrive. Of course some of us
feel it more than others so much de
pends upon the bodily condition; but the
best that any of us can do to offset and
cure "spring fever" is to dress as lightly
as we may with safety and to keep the
b)ood in perfect ciiculation, the nerves
operating normilly.
Osteopathy builds up, in such condi
tions.

Athens April 27 Archie . Hahn, the
crack University of Michigan Sprinter,
but travelling under Milwaukee colors,
is now the chamDion 1 00 meter enrintar
of the world, having won that ev-nt here
today. He covered the distance in
11:1-6 seconds, barely beating his own
team mate, F. Moulton of Kansas City.
The 100 meter expressed in yards
represents 109.3 yards, and the reg
ulation American hundred vardt. would
have been covered, at his clip, in a trifle
more than ten seconds. The Americans
are winni'nsr the highest honor in the
dashes, as no other team seems to have
a ceance to get in the finals as so many
Americans are entered, and In nearly
all are winning the respective trial
heats. This makes the fourth first that
the American team has landed here since
the games began.'
The Olympian games at Athens are in
full blast and Americans are winning
everything in sight Archie Hahn of
Milwaukee won his 1 00 meter simi-final
race, in 1 1 :2-5, Moulton, winning his
race, and Eaton winning the third heat.
The finals will be run today and it is ex
pected Hahn will win handily. In the
middle distances' James Lightbody of
Chicago university captured the 800
meter, and Daniels won the final race
in the 100 meter swimming event R. C.
Awrey of New York won the standing
broad jump. Up till today Americans
have won three first and one third, with
Hahn, Lightbody Moulton and Eaton with
a place in the final races of their events.
The English entries are winning most of
the distance runs while the weights, ashes
and middle distances will no doubt go to
Americans.

ADVICE OE A filED
And its Happy Results
Mrs. Florence Steward of Evansville.
Ind, writes, "Any women who can ap
preciate what it means to be restored to
health and vigor after bainir so run down
and anaemic as to make life a misery
will understand why I cannot express my
gra'itude for Vinol.
"I had been in this condition for years,
and had tried many remedies prescribed
by physicians, but without benefit. When
a friend suggested a cod liver oil oreoar-
ation, called Vinol, I must confess I had
not much faith in it but I decided to give
t a trial, and after taking it a short time
I began to feel better. I con iiued i t u-,
and today am as strong and hearty as
can be, and 1 feel that Vinol saved my
life.
"I advise any women who is in need of
a blood maker and strength creator to
try Vinol, and I know she will thank me.
as i thank the friend who suggested it
to me."
Mr. Newlin of the Newlin Drug Co.
says. "Vinol is not a patent medicine,
but it is the most valuable and deliciou
preparation of cod liver oil, the greatest
health restorer and strength-creator we
have ever sold, and we ask every run
down, nervous, debiliated. aged or weak
person in La Grande and every person
suffering from stubborn colds, hanging
ion coughs, bronchitis or incipient consump
ption to try Vinol on our guarantee to re
turn money if it fails to give satisfaction"
