AFTER THE GRIPPE
Tinol Restored This Man's
Strength
"Several years ago I was attacked by
a severe case of grippe, which left me
with a. hacking cough, soreness in iry
chest, and bronchitis. I . took nearly
every kind of cough syrup sold on the
market, besides medicine given me by
physidams.
I received no permanent relief until
my druggist asked I me to try Vinol,
and after taking taree bottles I was
entirely cured.
I believe "Vinol to be the greatest
blessing ever offered to the public, as
it does what is claimed for it." R. B. R.
Hicks, Maplesville, Ala.
mi puimonarr trouMes
The reason Vinol cures chronic
is because it contains tonic iron and
all the healing and body building ele
ments of cod liver oil but no oil.
Vinol is also unexcelled as a strength
builder lor old people, delicate children,
weak and run-down persons, and after
sickness. ' ' i A

" 5ome Interesting Law Points-;
.We note" in th Daily Sentinel
a few days ago a ,-pe3nliar insol
veney-proceeding was heard before
Clerk of the Court R. E. Tran
sou. Its is one of the; few causes
by which a man who owes a debt
can be imprisoned until he pays
it. ' Prior to 1868, this was a
common practice in North Caro
Jlna, bht the constitution which
was enacted then forbade the im
prisonment of one for debt except
incases of fraud. Some of the
oldxr members of the bar in this
city stated that this was the only
proceeding of the kind that has
been heard in the county in many
years. n, the case ft tne Vir
g'nia-Chemieal Company, tried
here at the September term of
civil cases only,' issues of fraud
were found by the jury, against S.
A. Price, and the executions issu
ed tp'RockiDgham county, where
Mr. Price livd, against his prop
erty were returned by the sheriff
of that county unsatifbd. The
Virginia-Carolina Ghemical Com
pany then had Clerk of the Court
R. E. Transou to issue an -execu
tion against Mr. Price s person
and he was brought to this city
on November 5th and confined in
jail. He filed his petition before
Clerk Transou to be discharged
from jail. The Virginia-Carolina
Chemical Company filed an affida
vit claiming that Mr, Price had
not surrendered his property and
objected to Mr. Price's discharge
-from jail. After hearing the law
yers, Mr. Transou remanded
Price back to jail, but later he
gave bail in thesnm of $2,900 to
await the result of the trial of the
issues raised by the pleadings:
There 18 considerable feeling in
the case ou the part of the Virginia-Carolina
Chemical Company
and Mr. Price and the case will be
strongly contested as it procdeds.
