"As these troubles are easily controlled if the right means is taken to cure them, we want to say to the people of La Grande that we guarantee our cod liver prepara tion, Vinol, will cure hanging-on colds, stubborn coughs, bronchial and lung troubles quicker than any preparation we have ever sold. "This is because Vinol contains no oil or grease to cleg the system and upset the stomach, yet it does contain every one of the fifty odd medicinal curative ele ments actually taken from from fresh cods' livers, with tonic iron added. Vinol i is not a patont medicine: and you know i what yoj are taking, so without reserva-1 tion we recommend Vinol to cure coughs, j colds, b'onchial trouble, increase the j appetite, build up tHe rundown, tired and j debilitated, and create strength and re newed vitality for the aged. "If Vinol fails to do what we say we w.ll refund every dollar paid for. it." Newlin Drug Co. ST. PITER'S CHURCH There will be Divine Services at this church on Thanksgiving Day at 10;30a. m.

AGED MAN TO MARRY County Clerk Gilham has become quite accustomed to seeing young and bashful youths enter his office and apply for a marriage license, but never before in his public career, has he been called upon to issue a permit to wed a min who borders on eighty years. However, such was the case this morning when Joseph C. Walker applied for a marriage license. Mr. Walker is past seventy-nine years of age and his bride-to-be has lived sixty-seven years. Both are well known pioneers of this valley, Mr. Walker is actively con nected with the G. A. R. and has a host of friends in this county.

THANKSGIVING OFFERING For several years offerings have been taken at the union Thanksgiving services and turned over :o the Ministers' Union to be used for the needy. i ' It ha3 been our plan to use these offet ngs as an emergency fund, and from it to help people in urgent need and especially people who are not members of any of the local churches, leaving each congre gation to look after its own poor. Ca re has been exercised and cases have been nvestigaied. The treasurer's book is open to the inspection of any interested party. Now. would it not be a good move upon the part of kindly hearted people f generally to bring such offerings on Thanksgiving morning and evening as to enable the Union to meet all worthy call and as far as possible do away with tW ' ten to fifty cent subscriptions passed by people who are irresponsible? Would not our merchants prefer to pay $5 to $25 each once a year, knowing that it would be handled judiciously and an ac count rendered, than to be called on week ly and often daily for a little contribution and often by entire strangers? I should like to hear from others in tomorrow' m. Observer. 0. H. Kino, President Ministenai;Uni o n FRESE ORANGES L i : i 25 cents FRESH IVUTS 4 It
