Mrs. Johanna Soderholm i of Fergus

shoulder. She had a surgeon get it back
in place as soon as possible, but it was
quite sore and pained her very much.
Her sou mentioned that he had seen
Chamberlain's Pain Balin advertised for
spraius and soreness, and she asked him
to buy her a bottle of it, which he did. It
quickly relieved her and enabled her to

days. The son was so much pleased
with the relief it gave his mother that he
has since recommended it to many others.

The Protection of Cattle Against
Tuberculosis by Vaccination.
Some experiments on the vaccination
of cattle against tuberculois have re
cently been published by Dr. Leonard
Pearsou, State Veterinarian of Penn
sylvania, and Dr. S. A. Gilliland, Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, with the sup
port of the State Live Stock Sanitary
Board. The work has been in progress
more than two years, thus antedating
all other work along this line, for the
German investigation of von Behring
did not begin until July 1901. No other
investigations of tbis sort have been re
ported in any other country than in
the United Slates and Germany. The
process used as to inject into the the
vein of the animal to be protected a
small quaiiity of a suspension of tub
erelo bacilli non viruleut four cattle.
This procedure, called vaccination, may
be repeated several times with gradu
ally ascending quantities. The im
mediate effect is to prodnce a passing
fever following each injection, which
does not annoy the animal enough to
cause it tolose a suyjle meal. The gen
eral health is not disturtmd by the pro
cess of vaccination. When the series
of vaccinations is completed the animal
had an astonishingly high degree ofim
munity to tuberculosis. In the last ex
periments completed four young cattle
used. Two of these were vaccinated
last March. All four were inoculated
in July by injecting into the wind-pipe
a quantity of culturo of virulent
tuberclo bacilli. A large quantity was
introduced and each of the for animals
received exactly the same treatment.
These animals were killed in October.
It was found that the cattle that had
not been vaccinated were extensively
tubercular, showing alterations of this
disease in the wind-pipe, lungs, tbroat
and intestional glands; while the two
vaccinated animals, inculated the same
time, from the same material, and in
the same way, were free from tuber
cular infection and were sound.
L)r.Pearson considers that this princi
ple of immunization as applied to vac
cination against tuberculosis of cattle
is proven and it now remains only to
work out the details of the method.
This important work is being continu
ed on a larger scale for the purpose of
ascertaining the simplest and shortest
practicable method of vaccination.
It is not yet known how long the im
munity will last nor what the ultimate
effect upon the animal will be So far,
however, as the few experiments here
and in Germany show, no fear need be
anticipated of unfavorable resuJts in
these particulars. What is needed now
is the painstaking use of the method on
a few tubercular hords kept under care
ful and continuous observation. A
scrupulously careful trial on a limited
scale under proper conditions will do
more to furnish thefnformation needed
to answer the few remaining questions
upon this discovery than any amount
of general nse under less careful super
vision. In the estimation of the in
vestigators it would be premature to
apply this vaccination to hords until
such further experiments are complet
ed. An effort will be made to secure
State aid for experiments on a scale
l'trge enough to solve this most import
ant problem.
A Marvelous Invention.

Good
Tasting
Medicine
Cod liver oil is in universal re
pute as the best body builder in
wasting diseases, and the best
reconstructor in recovery from
severe sickness known to medicine.
Nevertheless, three-fourths of
the people are really made sick by
the taste and smell of cod liver oil.
Half of them can't take it. Their
stomachs either reject it, or are so
upset by it that the dose does
more harm than good.
Vinol is the only preparation of
cod liver oil which contains no
grease or bad taste yet does con
tain all the virtue of cod liver
oil, and is deliciously palatable. It
also contains organic iron. Iron
gives quality to the blood. Almost
every ailing person needs it.
The combination of these two
elements with table wine is both
scientific and effective. It has
accomplished wonderful things
right here in town. We think
we are doing a service to every
run-down, ailing, coughing, ner
vous, debiltated person in calling
attention to Vinol. We sell it on
its merits —money back if it does
not help you. You run no risk.
Old people revive under its influ
ence. Nursing mothers and over
worked people get new vitality.
