Mr. Pace Replies to Mr. Lyon.
At the request of Rev. J. K. Pace
we publish the following in face of the
fact that enough has been said about
the Creedmoor Dispensary:
In Mr. Lyon's article of March 15th"
he says: "I am always willing to act
fair.""'-'' Now as long as he is willing
to "act fair," I will point out a few
things in his last article that he will
see is very unfair. He . has charged
me with some things that is not true.
Mr. Lyon, says: "He has never been
accused of hitting anything." I have
been accused for the past twenty years
of hitting people in my preaching.
Scarcely a month passes but some one
tells me that I hit him. I have been
told time and again since I wrote my
first article against the Creedmoor
Dispensary that I had hit Mr. Lyon.
One said: "You roasted him' Anoth
er said: "You burnt him up." And
still another said: "You layed him in
the shade," and I could give others.
Was that a fair charge?
I had a bad pen .when I wrote my
last article and the printers left out
the word minister and Mr. Lyon says:
"Mr." Pace seems to think he is the
Gospel," and yet from the connection
it was plain enough for any one to
have known better. Was that fair?
He says: Mr. Pace begins to sling his
mud at the good people of Creedmoor
when he tries to brand the good peo
ple of Creedmoor as fit subjects for
Sodom and Gomarrah, because a ma
jority of the best people in and around
here favor a dispensary at Creedmoor
he brands them as a lawless set. Now
1. will show him that the abase, charges
are lfot true. ?All the readers of the
Public Ledger know that Mr. Lyon
favored a dispensary on the ground
that the people of Creedmoor section
would not keep the laws. And he
wants to saddle me with his mud sling
ing. I was after him for his charges
of lawlessness against the people of
Creedmoor section when I wrote what
I did about Sodom and lawless set, and
I did not charge any one with lawless
ness. I had been told by some of the
good, people of Creedmoor that they
had been misrepresented, and I said in
my article I believed they had been
and the question I asked the Mayor
of that town, how many persons he
had had before him for violating the
law in the past twelve months? was
suggested to me by one of the good
citizens of Creedmoor. Now is it fair
to brand the people of your own sec
tion with lawlessness and then charge
some one else with it?
Now if it will do you any good to
sling mud at your own people and
brand them with lawlessness and charge
it up to me go ahead. He says: "He
has never heard from him against the
Oxford dispensary." . When the Ox
ford dispensary was established it was
a question of bar rooms or dispeusary.
To have fought the dispensary then
would have been to work for the bar
rooms. A big majority of the people
of Oxford are church members and
good people. I am very sorry that it
can be thrown up to us that we have
a dispensary. I am opposed to the
liquor traffic in all of its forms, because
I believe it is the greatest evil on earth.
I have wrote what I have for the pur
pose of doing good. I have done what
I believed to be my duty as a minister
and citizen of Granville county.
I now close this discussion with the
best of feelings towards everybody.

rVINOIS RELIABILITY.
Prominent Physicians Join with Mr.
Hamilton in Recommending Vinol.
Countless physicians and druggists
are now prescribing and indorsing
Vinol as the most valuable cod liver
oil preparation known to medicine, and
it is fast superseding all other forms
of cod liver oil and emulsions.
A prominent physician writes: "I
am satisfied that Vinol derives its won
derful life giving and strength creat
ing power from the medicinal curative
elements found in the cod's liver. It
is the best strength creator and vitalizer
for old people, weak women, children
and the convalescent that I ever saw."
Another physician writes: "I could
cite many cases where health has been
restored in a surprisingly short time
by Vinol. I should be very sorry to
have to do without Vinol in my prac
tice. It has no equal for hard colds,
throat and bronchial troubles."
Now,when we tell you that we have
never sold in our store a remedy of
more remarkable curative and strength
creating power than Vinol, for the
weak, the sick and the aged, and that,
if it fails to accomplish what we say it
will, we will refund your money with
out question, it shows you our faith in
the preparation.
Try Vinol on our guarantee, R. L.
Hamilton, Druggist. .
Note. While wTe are sole agents
for Vinol in Oxford, it is now for sale
at the leading drug store in nearly
every town and city in the country.
Look for the Vinol agency in your
town.

Letter to H. G. Cooper,Oxford,N.C.
Dear Sir: Here's honesty for you!
Xorth Dakota has a pure paint law.
Prof. Ladd, the state chemist analyzes
a certain paint labled "contains only
lead and zinc and is strictly pure."and
finds it no lead at all, a resinous oil,
and benzine. It is however, full meas
ure and contains no water.
That's like the man on trial for kill
ing his grandmother; proved that he
didn't set fire to the house.
No lead, but zinc and barytes, res
inous oil, and benzine '"strictly pure
lead and zinc paint!"
Pure paint is lead-zinc-and-oil; but
that isn't all; there is such a thing as J
proportion and make. The strongest j
paint is Devoe.
North Dakota is doing a handsome
thing in holding these confidence peo
ple up to scorn. She gives their names
as well as their works.
Yours truly,
F. W. DEVOE & CO.

ST is enough to start a bank
account with, aud if you
a systematic method of Sav
ing, the dollars will pile up
suprisingly. Why not ad
just your expenses so that
they will not exceed three
fourths of your earnings?
That will enable you to save
a quarter out of every dol
lar. Just figure what such
a system would have done
tor you had you commenc
ed it five years ago! But
cheer up. It isn't too late.
NOW is the time to open the
bank account and put away
ONE DOLLAR out of every
FOUR that you earn. We
welcome your account and
will help you to save and to
succeed.
