Are Patent Medicines Frauds? We are often asked the above question, and our ans\.v\- has in variably been that no medicine that gives satisfactory results could be fraudulent. \\ e could not afford to sell fraudulent medi cines. Our business depends on pleased customers—in fact anv business does. Therefore, we would take an enormous risk did we not fulfil every promise made our customers. We are very- care ful of what we guarantee, and when we do guarantee an article we must know it pretty well— what it contains and how'it is made. \\ e have in mind the Rex all line of remedies, particularly Rexall Mucu-Tone, of which we are selling large quantities at this time of the year. Mucu-Tone is one article that we can recommend over our counter and know that ninety-eight per cent, of its pur chasers are going to be benefited and will return to our store pleased customers. Mucu-Tone is a positive cure for internal scrofula or what is commonly called Catarrh. Jt is without a doubt the peer of all tonics for any one who is suffering from a run-down condition, can't work, feels constantly tired or suffering from the more plainly described symptoms of Catarrh—such as stopping of the nose, cold in the head or bad cough." It must be remembered that Ca tarrh is ii" t confined to the nose and throat. It usually starts there, but it Jeads more often to serious trouble, particular'y the wasting of tissues, as in the case Of little Miss Dillon, of Albany. Here is a letter from her father: "My little girl had catarrh so badly that the disease had begun to eat into the cartilage of the nose. Snuffn and instruments failed to do more than give tem porary relief. I saw the adver tisements of Rexall Mucu-Tone, but I could not believe that any thing taken in the stomach could cure the sore membranes of the nose. However, I took advan tage of your free trial offer and my girl began taking your remedy according to directions. I want to say right here that Mucu-Tone 13 certainly the greatest medical discovery cf the times, and to thank you for the liberal offer that first induced me to give it a trial. Muco-Tone has cured my daughter's catarrh completely. The discharge has stopped alto gether, and her breath is as sweet as can be. Again thanking you, MATT. DILLON, 24 N. Swan St., Albany, N. Y." We are selling a large trial bot tle of Mucu-Tone for fifty cents on the famous Rexall guarmtet of your money back if you are not satisfied. We promise that one bottle will put flesh on your bones and bring new vitality to your system. J. M. GRIFFIN, Druggist THE STORE * •* Represented by the Leading Agents ot all Towns and Cities in North Carolina r\is *' : ' - r \ •v A REASON The United Dru.j Company, manufac turers of the Rexall Remedies, for whose preparations we are agents in this city, make 200 remedies, one for each ill. Each one is especially prepared to cure one disease, and •that only. This is an age of specialists. You don't contract with a plumber to build your whole house, do you? Why should you contract with one proprietary medicine to cure all your troubles? Oftentimes you run across a building con tractor who has a sepa rate plumbing depart ment, his own plastering department, and so on, all of which dovetail to gether and build the house. This is just what the United Drug Com pany is doing for you in the medicine line. They have cut down profits; they Manufac ture Rexall Remedies for ove- 2,000 retail" drug gists: These 1 , druggists fcre the only intermediate profit that stand between The United Drug Com pany and the patient. Could the United Drug Company, of which we are a member, afford to make ore poor medicine in-this line? Does not common sense tell you that one poor medicine would ruin the sale of the other 109 prepara tions? If you bought a Rexall preparation and it didn't do for you what we claim it will, would you buy another one of our articles? We believe not. Therefore each « preparation must be good —it is good. We who are in the drug business know the formulas of these Rexall prepara tions. We believe in them so implicitly that we stand back of them, with our guarantee to refund you your money ' if they do not benefit you.

But with that way, two treatments, mugt be combined. One is local, one is constitu tional. but both are important, both essential. Dr. Shoop's Night Cure is the Local. Dr. 8hoop'« Restorative, the Constitutional. The former —Dr. Shoop's Night Cure— is a topical mucous membrane suppository remedy, while Dr. Shoop's Restorative is wholly an internal treat ment. The Restorative reaches throughout the entire system, seeking the repair of all nerve, all tissue, and all blood ailments. The "Night Cure", as its name implies, does ita work while you sleep. It soothes sore and inflam ed mucous surfaces, heals local weaknesses and discharges, while the Restorative, eases nervouf excitement, gives renewed vigor and ambition, builds up wasted tissues, bringing about renewed strength, vigor, and energy. Take Dr. Shoop's Restorative —Tablets or Liquid—asfa general tonie to the system. For positive local help, use as well Dr. tShoop's Night Cure GRIFFINS DRUG STORE. ✓ While Bishop Strange was delivering a sermon in the Episcopal church in Williamston Wednesday night three pistol shots were heard at the gate, and the ushers, who rushed out, found Mr. E. B. McGlohon dying. He was conscious and said as he was entering the churchyard a man arose in the darkness and said, "You are the man I want," and fired three times. There is some mystery about the shooting, and some believe it was suicide. Grippe is sweeping the country.
