Strong vigorous men and women hardly -ever catch cold; it's only when the system is run down and vitality low that colds and coughs get a foot- hold. Now isn't it reasonable that the right way to cure a cough 1e to build up your run down condition again? Mrs. D. A. McGee of Waycross, Ga.. pays: "I had a chronic cold and cough which kept me awake nights for two years and I felt tired all the time. Vinol cured my cough and I. feel stronger in every way." %ie reason Vinol la so efficacious in such cases is because it contains in a delicious concentrated form all the medicinal curative elemeatts of cod liver oil, with tonic, blood build- ing iron added. Chronic coughs and colds yield to Vinol because it builds up the weak- ened, run-down system. You can get your money, back any time if Vinol does not do all we say. J.

The highest mountain in Oregon is Mount flood, 11,2.'.74 feet above the sea level. Compared with Mount Whit- ney, to the south in California, and Mount laainicr, to the north in Wash- ington, each rising well above 14,000 feet, Mount hood does not appear as a skyscraper. However, according to the geologists of the United States geological survey and other authori- ties, Oregon had at one time, proba bly before the dawn of life upon the earth, a great volcano which towered, as far above Mount f=lood as does Mount Minter, possibly even several thousand feet higher. This was the great Mount Manama. But thousands of years ago the mountain disappear- ed into the bowels of the earth, and all that is left today is the huge rift? around Crater lake. Crater lake is the caldera of this ex - duct and collapsed volcano and is nearly six miles in diameter. The in- side walls of the rim of the ancient mountain are in places nearly 4.000 feet high and almost perpendicular. The lake itself is in places 2,000 feet deep, and parts of the wall rise above its water another 2,000 feet.. res- toration of the mountain in fun ; "e. ing as n basis the angles of the lowee-- slopes, which still remain, shows that the apex could not have been far from 15,000 feet in height, so that Mount Mazama was one of the most lofty and • -_ majestic peaks in the United States.— United States Geological Survey. MARKS ON THE BAGGAGE. They Tell Waiters Abroad the Kind of Man the Owner Is: Much traveled persons who careful- ly examine their trunks will find there- on a number of enbalistic marks which they probably .put down to the weal and tear imposed on the baggage. As a matter of fact, the signs come. not of chance. They are placed there by the waiters at the various hotels whereat the traveler has stayed and have a direct meaning, A sort of freemasonry exists among waiters at European hotels. They have a systeln of marking baggage so,., as to tell other waiters the' milliner of `- man that the traveler is as regards tipping, The traveler who arrives at a hotel with his baggage marked With 'a straight upright line on either side of the locks is sure of good attention. He is classified es "very liberal." A horizontal straight mark in the upper- right pperright hand corner of a trunk Meana that the owner is no good at all, while if this mark Is aceompanled by a V mark it signifies to the waiting tra. ternity that the traveler is the limit entirely hopeless. A eross mark on the lower right hand corner conveys the intelligence that the owner of the trunk is rather eccentric, but worth paying attention to. A. diagonal mark itt the lower left hand eorner speaks of n person who is eccentric Without being liberal. -,Lore don Answers, Demand Pee bust Perot* Cattle.

The highest mountain in Oregon is Mount flood, 11,2.'.74 feet above the sea level. Compared with Mount Whit- ney, to the south in California, and Mount laainicr, to the north in Wash- ington, each rising well above 14,000 feet, Mount hood does not appear as a skyscraper. However, according to the geologists of the United States geological survey and other authori- ties, Oregon had at one time, proba bly before the dawn of life upon the earth, a great volcano which towered, as far above Mount f=lood as does Mount Minter, possibly even several thousand feet higher. This was the great Mount Manama. But thousands of years ago the mountain disappear- ed into the bowels of the earth, and all that is left today is the huge rift? around Crater lake. Crater lake is the caldera of this ex - duct and collapsed volcano and is nearly six miles in diameter. The in- side walls of the rim of the ancient mountain are in places nearly 4.000 feet high and almost perpendicular. The lake itself is in places 2,000 feet deep, and parts of the wall rise above its water another 2,000 feet.. res- toration of the mountain in fun ; "e. ing as n basis the angles of the lowee-- slopes, which still remain, shows that the apex could not have been far from 15,000 feet in height, so that Mount Mazama was one of the most lofty and • -_ majestic peaks in the United States.— United States Geological Survey. MARKS ON THE BAGGAGE. They Tell Waiters Abroad the Kind of Man the Owner Is: Much traveled persons who careful- ly examine their trunks will find there- on a number of enbalistic marks which they probably .put down to the weal and tear imposed on the baggage. As a matter of fact, the signs come. not of chance. They are placed there by the waiters at the various hotels whereat the traveler has stayed and have a direct meaning, A sort of freemasonry exists among waiters at European hotels. They have a systeln of marking baggage so,., as to tell other waiters the' milliner of `- man that the traveler is as regards tipping, The traveler who arrives at a hotel with his baggage marked With 'a straight upright line on either side of the locks is sure of good attention. He is classified es "very liberal." A horizontal straight mark in the upper- right pperright hand corner of a trunk Meana that the owner is no good at all, while if this mark Is aceompanled by a V mark it signifies to the waiting tra. ternity that the traveler is the limit entirely hopeless. A eross mark on the lower right hand corner conveys the intelligence that the owner of the trunk is rather eccentric, but worth paying attention to. A. diagonal mark itt the lower left hand eorner speaks of n person who is eccentric Without being liberal. -,Lore don Answers, Demand Pee bust Perot* Cattle.
