Census Figures Just Published
Show Pleasing Reduction in
Death Rate.
LONGEVITY IS INCREASING
Diminished Mortality Due to Ini

! PneuDiouiA Increasing ; J"
Washington, Nov, An Inspection
of the census figures will surprise most
persons. If the good . record Indl
cated by census statistics continues.
, there must be a wonderful Increase in
longevity. Centenarians will become
- numerous.
Grief must be felt by undertakers
throughout the land.
Something of a special study la made
of the death rates by certain diseases.
We are told that the average number
of deaths from consumption In New
England cities In 1890. per 100,004 of
population, was SOT; in 1900 it was
only lit la cities in the Middle
states, the deaths from consumption
averaged 114 In 1890; in 1900 only 234.
la cities in the Lake states the record
was 17S In 180; 143 in 1900. : In cities
ia the Southern states the consump
tion death rate was Sit in 1890; 251 in
1900. In cities in the Western Central
states no improvement is recorded.
In those cities there were 178 con
sumption deaths, per 100.000 popula
tion, in 1890, and a precisely equal
number In 1900.
- Pneumonia ia claiming more vic
tims instead of fewer. Some diminu
tion is noticed in the death rate from
typhoid fever, but the mortality from
tbat cause has varied greatly, In dU-1
ferent cities, in different years, due td
epidemic outbreaks of greater or leas
severity. The death rates from diph
theria and croup have diminished, but
not systematically and continuously.
The mortality from pneumonia.
cancer, heart disease, apolexy. dls
eases of the kidney and other diseases
of old age have increased. But this
is for the very satisfactory reason that
more persons attain the higher ages.
The data Just published indicates
that the diminishing death rate ' Is
"real and progressive," probably due
to improved sanitation, hygiene and
health regulations.

MR. CHARLES ROGERS, DRUGGIST
OP OUR CITY, INTERESTED,
The
Public Marvel, and Doctors Ev
erywhsre Pleased.
Nowadays It takes considerable to
astonish the world. So many wonder
ful things have been discovered In the
past century that It has seemed almost
Impossible that anything more could
be found to add to the comfort or
benefit of man. -
Probably no branch of science has
made such wonderful strides as have
been made In the practice of medi
cine. Diseases that a number of
years ago were considered fatal, are
now known to be curable. Even con
sumption Is no longer looked upon
with the dread that It formerly in
spired.
It is right on this line of wasting
diseases that we now have news of a
wonderful discovery one that Is
bound to revolutionise the science of
medicine and startle the world. Every
one Is famllar with methods that have
been employed by physicians for
years, In cases that they were afraid
would develop into a decline. In all
troubles of the throat, lungs, bronchial
tubes and other similar aliments that
were known to end disastrously.
about the first thing the doctor would
do would be to recommend cod liver
oil. for cod liver oil has been recog
nised for a great many fears as posses
sing peculiar medicinal properties
particularly adapted for the cure of
such troubles.
Every on knows the Objection, how
ever, to the Use of this nauseating
remedy. So extreme) disagreeable is
the taste and smell of cod liver oil
that many people have actually been
unable to take a single dose of it
Many others have made heroic efforts
to take the medicine, but have been
obliged to abandon It after struggling
with the horrible stuff for a few days,
The consequence is that thousands
have drifted into Incurable .'diseases
who might have been saved, had It
been possible to administer this potent
medicine. Enough people have been
able to assimilate cod liver oil to prove
to the medical profession and the
world at large. Its intrinsic value.
Such patients as were blessed with un
usually strong stomachs derived bene
fit from cod liver oil. Why. then,
could not a form of it be devised, to
be administered to patients whose di
gestive organs had been weakened by
disease.
This Is exactly what scientists and
chemists have been aiming at for
years, and this is exactly what has
been accomplished by two prominent
French chemists. Their secret bat
been brought to America and our own
Mr. Rogers has succedeJ in connec
ting himself with tha prominent firm
of Boston Chemists who are placing
this preparation on tfc market. The
preparation In question, now that It
has been discovered, liki all ether
great Inventions, i eimpla. By a
peculiar process the liver of the live
cod Is trcuteJ in sunn a niarner that
there is obtained an extract which con
tains all, and only all, of tne curative
properties that have made cod liver oil
famous. The horrible-smelling, nau-
seating-tastlng fat ihut has always
been a part of 'his remedy h.'i been
left entirely behind
. This curative extract la the basis of
Vlnol which Mr. Rogers is presenting
to the public, (t Is placed in a de
licious table wine, and In Itself being
tasteless, the consumer Is unable to
distinguish the fact that he Is taking
anything more than a pleasant port
wine.
Mr. Rogers has Indeed struck It just
right In making arrangements to
handle this new remedy, which goes
under the name of Vinol. It Is worth
any one's while to talk to him about
it and to learn directly from him the
good that is being done by finding a
way to administer what has always
been a horrible and much dreaded
medicine, in a form that Is actually
pleasant, to say 'nothing of being a
hundred times more efficient.
