More Prosperity.


ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE OF
THE SUCCESS AND STABIL.
ITY OF SOUTHERN PINES
AS A BUSINESS CENTER.
Another excellent example of
the steady and rapid growth OF
Southern Pines from small settle
ment into one of the busiest and
most prosperous towns in the
state is the hardware business Of
s. S. Thomas. Begun in very
small way with only a few hun
dred dollars worth of stock in a
small building on Bennett street
in the fall of 1896, the business
has prospered and increased until
now the stoc k in inveDtoried at
from $4,000 to $4,000 and the bus
mess is carried on in a large mod
ern brick building in the heart Of
the business section, keeping Mr..
Thomas and his son and assistant,
A. j. Thomas, busily employed
during the season. The volume of
business done the first year
amounted to just about one fourth
of last years business. Another
noteworthy feature is the fact that
the bulk of the business has al
ways been done in builders hard
ware and that each succeeding
year has been ahead of its prede-
cessor in the volume of it's bust
ness. In reply to question on
this point, Mr.. Thomas said most
emphatically eyes, sir. Business
has improved every year; | did a
great deal better business last year
than | ever did before" 1t is the
same story that nearly every other
merchant has to tell and it proves
conclusively that Southern Pines
is advancing rapidly, growing
steadily and will continue to do SO.
Mr.. Thomas business is partic-
ularlv indicative of this as it takes
progress and Improvements to
create a demand for his goods.
The stock he carries consists of
complete line Of builders and gen
era harlWare and mechanics tools;
farm and garden implements; wire
fencing; paints, oils, varnishes,
window glass and painters sup
plies; cutlery Of all kinds. guns
and ammunition; stoves, heaters
and kitchen utensils; and every
thing else usually found in an up
o date, first-class hardware store.

DR.. and Mrs. j. Ern est Judd re
turned Monday evening after a
three months vacation, visiting
Brooklyn, New York, Atlantic
City, Catskill Mountains, Niagara
Falls, Buffalo, Troy, Albany, Bal
timore and Raleigh. They report
very enjoyable trip although
they say part Of the time the wealth
er was warmer than it was further
South. They are like others, APP
preciate Southern Pines more after
being away, and while the Doctor
is one of the kind who does not say
much, he is always trying to per
feet himself so he can serve the
public better in his profession. He
believes in keeping up with the
times, and thinks the best way for
a man to accomplish this is to
know other methods to combine
with ones own, for the greatest |
success. While in New York this
summer the Doctor took a post

Chair older Than America.

There is in the possession of the Bing-
ley family Of Hanover, Pa, an armchair
that is older than America. With a his
tory that began 40 years ago, when it
was made in England, the chair has
well stood the test of time. Kept as
an heirloom by the Bingley family, it has
been handed down for generations until
the present owner received it in 1916.
The chair Is made Of English oak, in
laid with several different kinds Of 9TH
err wood, beautifully carved and very
heavy. Its construction Is typical of
the time at which it was made. The
joints are mortised and tenoned, while
wooden pins serve the purpose of screws
or nails of the present day. Though
made in the town of Wakefield, it re-
manned there only short time. being
taken to Bingley, a town named after
the ancestors OF the present owner.
There the chair remained during the
reign of 90 kings and queens, from Hen
ry vi to Victoria.
Finally, after brief stay at Leeds, 1t
was taken to Manchester. In 1856 the
chair was brought to this country on
the ship Mary Hale and was landed at

They Are Dangerous Be-

VERY LIKELY TO LAST ALL
WINTER.
We Know Something that Cures All
Pulmonary Troubles.
IT Is OUR GREAT TONIC RECON-
. STRUCT0R, VIN0L.

There seems to be an epidemic of
colds.
1t Is strange how many people start
In with a cold that they have con-
tracted during the autumn months.
Such colds are dangerous, for unless
cured when the weather is warm it is
very difficult to get rid of them when
really inclement weather appears.
Do not, if you have cold, go through
this winter and let it pull you down. A
racking cough may be the means Of I'M
dermining your constitution, terminal
ing in consumption, when there will be
no hope for escape.
Cod-Liver Oil has always been the
greatest known specific for consump-
ton. Naturally Cod Liver Oil has been
given for colds which are regarded by
many people as the first stage of this
disease. There is no need of our tell
ing you the drawbacks of Cod Liver
Oil; the vile, greasy mixture was so re-
pellent that not more than one person
in ten could take it. But Cod Liver
Oil did cure where it could be taken.
Now we have a cod-liver oil prepara-
ton that cures just as surely as did
this vile remedy. We refer to Vinol.
4
licious, and because it contains the
active curative principles that made
Cod-Liver Oil famous as the specific for
consumption and other wasting dis
eases, it will be readily seen how valu-
able it is for all such troubles.
Here is one letter taken from many
that are continually coming to our
notice. Mrs. +. Coghlan, 122 Putnam
Ave, Cambridgeport, Mass, says:
last September 1 contracted a
heavy cold which terminated with tom
silitis, and later the grip. All winter
had a dreadful cough, and the doctor
advised me to take several things,
among them Cod-Liver Oil. / tried it
for several months without obtaining
relief. At last / heard of Vinol and
gave it trial. Five bottles cured me
and have had no troubles since"
When we talk of Vinol, we
know of what we speak, and will
refund your money if you are not
satisfied. .-ss..s..

TOWN WIPED OUT.
Business Section of Lisbon Falls
Swept by Flames, !,

When daylight came last Saturday
Lisbon Falls was in ruins. OF the several
substantial, handsome blocks, accommo-
dating dozens of stores and scores of
tenants, not one remained. Hundreds of
persons were homeless, and property
valued at anywhere from S150,000 to $780,
600 had been destroyed.
The fire started in the Everett block, on
Main street, one of the finest business
blocks in the town. A small Anticipated
hand engine, the only piece of fire-fig hit
ing apparatus in the town, was hurried to
the scene, and stream turned on the
burning structure. Two other streams
from nearby hydrants also were brought
in play, but it was seen the building was
doomed and every effort was directed to
keeping the fire from the other structures.
At this point there was an explosion in
the burning building and great sheet of
flame shot across the street. 1t was seen
that all efforts to check the flames would
he useless. Calls were sent to Lewiston
and Bath for assistance.
| There was no wind to carry the flames
in any given direction, and the fire
spread ON all sides. 1t followed Main
street down to what is known as Risska's
corner and there crossed to the east side,
first taking the building occupied by
Harry Wright as pool room, then Han
sons pool room, Risska's grocery store,
Fessenden's drug store, the hardware
store of ]. H. Brewster, s. K. Littlehale's
dwelling house, the two Ginsburg blocks
| and the Perkins block.
In the meantime the flames were work
| ing back and had destroyed several build
| ings on Middle, Union and Lisbon streets,
| including McIntosh's livery stable and an
adjoining tenement house, the town
lookup and engine house, the citizens
| hall, the only amusement hall in the
town; tenement house owned by j. II.
| Coombs, W. g. Coombs' tailor shop, and
a tenement house owned by W. A. Brlm-
ajoin.
At this point assistance arrived, and
soon two Lewiston and one Bath engine
were at work. Several small buildings
which had taken fire were destroyed, but
wit hin an hour the fire was under control.
Twenty-nine buildings were destroyed,
the loss being estimated at from S150,00O
to soc, 900. The insurance is in the vicin-
ity OF 100000.

Roosevelt's Home Life.

When Theodore Roosevelt has closed
the door of his home behind him, the SOL
der, the statesman, the reformer, the
writer, are all shut out, and only the hus-
band and the father enters, says Ladies'
Home Journal. His devotion to his wife
and children is ideal. To the latter he is
not only father, but also big, over
grown brother. One of his chief delights
ia to get down on all tours in the nursery
and play bear with the younger ones.
When the little bears tire, he sometimes
sings old Dutch folks-songs for them.
Though his voice was never intended for
singing, there is a certain quaintness and
rough charm about these memories of
Holland that greatly delight the children.

One Weeks Winnowings of News,

The two-masted schooner "Wendall
Burpee", OF st. John, N B., went ashore
off Cape Elizabeth shortly after noon Sun
day. The captain, cook and one sailor
were drowned, while the mate only was
saved.
The Knickerbocker steam towing COM
pany which for years has controlled the
towing on the Kennebec river has sold
out to the American fee Co. This deal
means that the ice company will do its
own towing hereafter, and as there is
likely to be little ice shipped from the Ken
nebec, this year, it is believed that most
OF the company's boats will see service
on the Hudson during the coming sum-
mer.
Fire was discovered in the White &
Wilson block, Rockland, Wednesday
night. The blaze was on the second floor,
which with the upper story of the three
story brick building was used as an annex
of the Thorndike hotel. The fire depart
ment confined the fire to he section of the
block where it originated and had it
drowned out at 1915. Neither the main
hotel structure nor the masonic block on
the other side was materially damaged.
The total loss, which was mainly by
water, is estimated at $50, 900. All the
losses are well insured, the combined in
surance being about $1,000. The damage
to the building, which is owned by John
S. Case, Of Rockland, and Mr.. Reeves, of
Brooklyn, N. Y, is placed at $4,000 and
the remainder of the loss is divided be-
tween w. F. Norcross, druggist; Rock
land Trust Co.; Gould & Thompson, law
office; E. J. Rose, tailor; w. j. Perry,
boots and shoes; G. E. Daniel, jeweler,
and Miss j. c. Mcdonald, miiliner.
