We REFUND
The Price of Vinol If II
Does Not Give Salts
faction.
Our Faith In 1t is
Unbounded.

We know of no remedy that is more
universally successful than Vinol.
Vinol is not by any means a cure all.
We do not wish any of our friends to
believe for a moment that we claim it
to be.
We do wish all to know, however, that
we enthusiastically endorse Vinol, be-
cause we all have investigated and know
everything that it contains, and we know
that the elements contained in Vinol have
the power to do what we claim.
The main thing to which Vinol owes
it's merit is the medicinal elements in a
highly concentrated state that have given
to cod liver oil it's reputation as specific
in all wasting diseases.
These same elements have been col
leeted from the liver of the cod, and
having been freed from the obnoxious
grease, that made cod liver oil so unpop-
ular, and dissolved in a delicious table
wine; this, with the addition of slight
amount of iron, is all our Vinol is.
In all cases of chronic coughs, bron-
chitis, severe colds, general debility, loss
of appetite, all derangem ents of the
stomach, ETC., we recommend Ninol. So
Internationally do we recommend it
that we offer in all instances to refund to
anyone the money they pay us for Vinol,
if they do not find it in every respect all
that we claim for it.
Following is one of the many letters
we continually receive showing the en-
thusiasm felt by the takers of Vinol.
81 would not take 500 for the good
Vinol has done my wife and children.
The children had the measles and were
left with bad cough, and my wife was
run down in health. bought two bot
ties of Vinol, and my children are strong
and we'll, and my wife says she feels
better than she has for years. Mr.. w.

SHOULD wish to become a citizen of any
other county"
To whom is it "a matter of great sur
prise" pray? Not to good men in Raleigh
even, who, knowing our situation, say our
requst should be granted; and surely to
no one else who has any knowledge of
the facts in the case.
You say in substance that Investigation
developed the fact that the petitioners
were impelled by desire for good ma
caGam roads. which they thought they
would get soon If they were attached to
Durham. Ineed we want good macadam
roads Who does not? But a good macad-
am road from here to Raleigh-twenty
miles away-would not relieve the situa-
ton. Durham is but half that distance
from us, and is our market, and must
remain such.
Nor is this all or half Because of our
creeks and the county line as it now
runs our public school building is so
incOnveniently located-necessarily So
for our school population, that our chill
dren cannot possibly get out Of the public
school what they are justly entitled to
nor what we are paying for.
Add our small section to Durham coun-
ty and school matters can be admirably
adjusted and our public school building
conveniently located
The education of our children is i'm
perative, and the public school is our only
means to that end-our only hope-hence
this is, to us, a matter of greatest per-
sonal concern.
Mind you, we are not bowling for more
money. We ask only to be put in shape
to use tc best advantage what we have.
Ye men of Wake! Do we ask a thing
unreasonable?
Durham is near, Raleigh is far. Durham
is our market.
There we should pay our taxes, attend
court, record our papers, and transact all
county business.
Our convenience and our interest de-
mand that we become part of Durham
county, and to that end we shall petit
tion again the next Legislature. Such is
our right and our plain duty.
We shall do this-not for Wakes det-
riment, but for our own advantage; not
that we love the mother county less,
but that We love our children more.

HEART DISEASE.

Some Facts Regarding the Rapid In
crease of Heart Troubles-Do Not Be
Alarmed, but Look for the Cause.
Heart troubles, at least among Am
orleans, are certainly increasing, and
while this may be largely due to the ex-
citemont and worry of American bust
ness life, it is more often the result of
weak stomachs, of poor DIGESTION
Real, organic heart disease is ircur-
able: but not one case in a hundred of
heart trouble is organic
The close relation between heart trou-
BILE and poor digestion is because both
organs are controlled by branches of he
same great nerves, the Sympathetic and
Pneumo@astric.
In another way also tkc heart is af-
fected by that form of poor digestion
which causes gas and fermentation from
half digested food; there is a feeling of
oppression and heavness in the chest,
caused by pressure of the distended
stomach on the heart and lungs, inter-
fering with their action; hence arise pal
pitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
makes it thin ard watery. which irri
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is to improve the DIGESTION and
to insure the prompt assimilation of
food.
This can best be done 10y the regular
use after meals of some safe, pleasant
and effective digestive preparation. like
STARTS Dyspepsia Tablets, which ay
be found at most drug stores. and which
contain valuable. harmless digestive
elements in a pleasant, convenient form.
1t is safe to say that the regular, per-
sistent use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab
let's at meal time will cure any form of
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.

by druggists at 80 cents.

ONLY ONE WAY

To Purify the Blood, Increase Flesh and
Strength and to Cure Indigestion
Secret Patent Medicines Will not do
It-There is a Simpler and Better Way
There is only one way to purify the
bleod, only one way to increase flesh,
and that is through the stomach and
digestive organs. Why? Because the
stomach and digestive organs make
blood and flesh, BONE nerves and sinew.
Did you ever see person blessed with
healthy, vigorous stomach and diges-
ton who had impure blood, muddy, sal
low complexion, or who had weak
nerves, sleepless nights and the thou
sand and one pains and aches arising
from poor digestion? No, because per-
feet digestion converts the food eaten
into pure blod, strong nerves and mus
cles, and all the flesh a person needs to
have for health, symmetry and beauty.
Every person knows whether or not
his or her digestion is what it should be
but by the use of certain harmless di-
gesrive principles, which, taken at
meals, will digest the food anyway, re-
gardless of the weak condition of the
stomach.
DIR. Brooks recommends a combna-
tion of vegetables essences, fruit salts,
pure aseptic pepsin, and Golden Seal,
prepared in convenient tablet fornl, and
sold by druggists everywhere under the
name CT Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
These pleasant tasting tablets are to
be dissolved in the mouth after each
meal, and, mingling in the food in the
stomach, digest it perfectly. There is
nothing wonderful about this. Any
physician or chemist knows that Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets will do this because
repeatedly tested and proved, and thou
sands of cured dyspetics have found it
to be true also.
Dr. Harlandson states that these tab
let's increase flesh because they digest
flesh forming food like eggs, meat and
ordinary everyday food; for the same
reason they purify the blood and
strengthen weak nerves. In no other
way can it be done, because flesh. blood
end nerves are obtained from the food
we eat
DR.. Jennison once stated that he be-
heved 50-eent package of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets would give more real
benefit than fifty dollars worth of ordi-
airy doctors fees.
