It takes a constitutional tonic body builder to do the work properly— and cure you to stay cured. Vinol is the remedy you need. HERE IS PROOF Rw Mbuite Osgood, of Oltin Falls, K.

It cured my cold and eough and I gained In health and strsseith I consider Vinol the moot wonderful tonlo and lavlgorntor I ever saw." If we cannot stop that cough with VINOL—our delicious cod liver and iron tonic—which is made without oil—we will not charge you a cent for the medicine you buy. This seems like a pretty fair proposition—and ought to be ac cepted. Don’t you think so? With this understanding we ask you to try a bottle of VINOL. Gao. C. Goodman & Co.

Miller-White Co wsBMitaa BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTES ARE PAID TO MEMORT OF SENATOR RANSOM. “This evening we lift the veil and look upon the face of him whom all Carolinians knew and loved. It is the image of the scholar, the orator; the soldier, the statesman, the pa triot who loved the South as he loved his life, and loved North Car olina even more than the South—the peerless Ransom!” Thus spoke Sec retary of State J. Bryan Grimes, who is also chairman of the State Historical Commission in his speech of presentation at the ceremonies held in the hall of the House of Representatives last night incident to the unveiling of the bust of the late Senator Matt W. Ransom in the rotunda of the capital. The bust was presented to the State of North Carolina by the State Historical Commission, and the speech of ac ceptance was made by Governor W. W. Kitchin, whose well chosen words were exceedingly appropriate and patriotic. “The Life and Character of Matt W. Ransom” was the subject of the principal address of the exercises, the speaker being ex-Judge R. W. Winston, who raised the funds necessary for the production of the bust at the request of the State Historical Commission. In the glow ing tribute which Judge Winston paid to the deceased, he said: “Senator Ransom was no such trained lawyer as Senator Badger. He was not a student and a scholar like Senator Graham. He had not the technical knowledge of Senator Haywood, nor was he the popular idol like Senator Vance, but his influence with the President of the United States, with the departments-, and with his col leagues in the Senate, qfid in the service which his peculiar talents enabled him to render to the South, he was superior to them all. In fine, Ransom was the Senator, every inch of him.” Other able and interesting ad dresses were made by Col. A. H. Boyden, Senator from Rowan, and Mr. B. S. Gray, representative from Northampton county. A great throng of Raleigh people and visit ors to the city witnessed the un veiling and attended the ceremonies, which were deeply impressive and beautiful.—Charlotte Chronicle.

A special sent out from Raleigh to the Charlotte Observer, says: The movement for a great trans-state highway^rom Beaufort harbor to the Tennessee line is given impetus by action of the Wake County Good Roads Association through Requests to good roads advocates in all coun ties, through which the highway is to pass, asking them to bestir them selves among the people for proposi tion. The proposed central highway is to run through Newbern, Kinston, Goldsboro, Smithfield, Raleigh, Dur ham, Hillsboro, Graham, Greens boro, High Point, Thomasville, Lex ington, Salisbury, Statesville, Hick ory , Newton, Morganton, Marion, Asheville and Marshall. The State highway commission is to locate the road and each county authorized by the Legislature to appropriate $50 a mile of road in its borders. A gen eral convention of the counties in terested is called to meet in Raleigh Tuesday, February 14, and each county, city and town is requested to send delegates, as are also civic bodies along the proposed route. A bill is to be gotten through the Legislature. Foley's Kidney Remedy—An Apprecia tion. I,. McConnell, Catherine at , Klmira, N. Y., writes: “I wish to express my appreciation of the great good I de rived from Foley’s Kidney Remedy, which 1 used for a bad case of kidney trouble. Five bottles did the work most effectively and proved to me be yond doubt it is the most reliable kid ney medicines I have ever taken.” Miller-White Co‘ Spenoar Furnishes the World’s Young* sst Grandfather. Spencer, Jan, 12—Mr. V. H. Bry son of Spencer, it is believed, holds the record as the youngest grand father in the world his age being 33. He was married when 14 years of age his wife being only thirteen and one half. His oldest son was mar ried at the age of 17 and who at the age of 18 years presented to the elder Bryson a grandson, the grand father being less than 33 years of age. Early marriage appears to run in the family, Mr. R' P. Bryson, father of V. H. Bryson, grandfather of J. W. Bryson, and great-grand father of the younger generation, having been married when under twenty years of age. The grand father, who was a Methodist minis ter, was accidentally killed in the Spencer shops on the 6th inst.

The peti tion advocates a tax of f 1.00 on all dogs in the county, one half of which will go to the school fund and the other half for the protection of birds and other beneficial game to the farmers. If it becomes a law it will result in killing off half of the worthless dogs in Cabarrus, and at the same time the valuable dogs will be made subject of larceny and pro tected by law. The Concord Trib une says it is claimed that $1,500 is a conservative estimate of the reve nue that will be derived from such a law.—Salisbury Post.

A handsome and well illustrated booklet, descriptive of the agricul tural resources and products of North Carolina, has just beenissued by the Land and Industrial Depart ment of the Southern Railway, for distribution in the North and West in connection with the work which the Southern is doing in the effort to attract desirable settlers to the Southeast. The volume is the fourth in a series on the different States traversed by the Southern. It is not for circula%^JlL the South, but will be given a wide distribntisn ip sec tions where it is believed the great est good can be accomplished. The agricultural and forest re sources of North Carolina and the opportunities in general farming, stock raising, fruit and vegetable growing that await the home seeker as well as the many advantages of fered for various branches of manu facturing in the many prosperous , cities tnd towns are treated exten sively. Full information is given concerning the character of the soils, while special attention is directed to the delightful climatic conditions which have given North Carolina wide fame as a resort State, both summer and winter. The great yields of corn and other grains* grasses and forage, potatoes and truck, as well as cotton and tobacco, are interestingly set forth as are the advantages of growing apples and other fruits and for raising cat tle, sheep and hogs. This booklet will be placed in the hands of a large number of settlers of just the kind the South wapts, and it should prove of great value to North Car olina.

Together with her little brother, Hampton, who is about 5 years old and Ernest Safrit, also about 5 years old, who lived near her home, the i little girl was playing about the ' barn of Mr. C. A. Ritchie, an ad 1 joiding neighbor. The little boys, it appears, had some matches and in striking them set the barn on fire. The clothing of the little girl caught .from the flames in some way and j she was so terribly burned before : being rescued that she died in agony an hour afterwards.

Mr. R. L. Hartsell, of No. 10 town ship, Cabarrus county, has recently received letters patent for a cotton chopping machine which he has in vented. The Greensboro News says: R. L. Hartsell, of Smithford, an inventor and patentee of a cotton chopper in combination, is in the city in the interest of his invention with a view to having tests made before a party of local capitalists, who are considering the foundation of a company for the manufacture of cotton chopping machines. A practical machine is being construct ed in one of the local shops from the small model on which the patent was secured. It will be completed in about a month, and it is likely that if a suitable demonstration is /nade a company capitalized at J75, 000 will be formed, and the plant erected here. The cotton chopper is buift with a double edge oscillating hoe, cut ting at each stroke, the hoes being properly shaped at the edge for this, and is driven by a change speed gear, cutting any desired stroke from 6 to 15 inches in order to suit the thickness. The bearings of the hoe staff are provided with a spring so as to give up when in contact with a stone or other obstacle, and with a hand lever to raise or lower same to suit irregularities of sur face. The hoe can be adjusted by a lever to make the desired strokes and for cutting cotton to a desired stand. Following the hoe are a pair of angle scrapers, adjusted and cushioned with springs to suit hard land or loam, scraping the young grass towards the middle of the row. It is provided with cultivator plows following the scrapers, turn ing loose clean soil back upon the row, thus doing the work of about eight or ten men the old way, and doing it so as to suit the most fas tidious person. This machine is so arranged by mechanical skill that every part is an adjustable one in dependent of the other. To suit ir regular surface and by means of an arm and sleeve the entire machine can be raised to the end of the guide row by the use of one lever. The machine as an entirety is perfectly ^adjustable at the operator’s pleas ure, chopping the cotton, scraping young grass away and cultivating the cotton all at one time and by one operator.

Contracts have been let for the erection of a new theater for Win ston-Salem, to cost $11,000. Equip ments will cost $7,000. Rev. George Cates, the Baptist evangelist, who was ejected recent ly from a Southern railway train, in Buncombe county, has filed suit against the railroad for $100,000 damages. He alleges that he suf fered internal injuries and great humiliation by the treatment. The director of the census told the Asheville Gazette-News repre sentative that a recount at Ashe ville could not be allowed under any circumstances. The time for such action has passed since the figures already announced have to be re ported to the house and will be used aa a basis for a new apportionment. Mr. James B. Duke, president of the Southern Power company and head of the American Tobacca com pany, is looming big on the com mercial hajplzen of the South Atlan tic states as a developer of resources the equal in potentiality to James J.

Editor Whitehead, of the Wil mington Lumber Journal, caused a stir in the Marble room at Wash ington by importuning a southern senator to vote for Lorimer because the Illinois senator voted for duty on lumber. The senator, whose name is withheld for the present, dismissed Whitehead from his pres ence. The affair is causing consid erable talk about the capitol. “We have about one hundred magistrates in my county who are costing over $700 and don’t want to be burdened with any more,” de clared Representative Ewart Friday in offering a resolution in the House protesting against any more justices of the peace for his county.

Miller-White Co. The Haggish Consumption of Hag Meat. When asked how the health of the community was, a few months ago, a well-known physician of this place replied: "It is splendid, Very little sickness, but hog-killing time is now here and there will be something doing before long." Do you ever 8top to consider the fact that a large per cent of the disorders of the hu man body are caused by eating hog meat? Especially is this true among children. We have seen small boys eat enough sausage for two grown people and then cry because they didn’t have enough— and it wasn’t long before they cried again. This time because they had too much. It is a fact that hog meat is the most unhealthful article that we use daily. It might not deal so badly with our system if we would et' the proper amount and quit, but it seems to be the tendency of too many people, when they start to eating hog meat to carry out the nature of the hog itself. It is claimed by some that we imbibe into our very nature the qualities of animals whose flesh we feed upon. If this be true, then is it any wonder that we so often over rate ourselves when we sit down to a dinner of pork? These are things for us to think about. Certainly parents should see to it that chil dren are properly fed, whether their food consists of hog meat or of something else.— Marshville Our Home. WOOD’S HIGH-GRADE I'Tarm Seeds.''
