FALL COLDS
DANGEROUS BECAUSE HARD TO
CURE.
An Offer to the People of Savannah
from knights Pharmacy Co.

Knights Pharmacy Co. claim they
have 4 cure for colds and coughs, and
If II fails they will refund your money.
The remedy is Vinol, ana we nave
heard such wonderful results from it
Vannah who is suffering from a cold
or cough to try it on their guarantee.
A hard cold and hacking cough may
be the means of undermining your
contitution and terminate in con-
sumption. Cough syrups, while they
temporarily allay the spasms of
coughing, owing to the opiates they
contain, upset the stomach and do not
cure the cause old-fashioned cod liver
oil and emulsions are so nauseating
that few can take them.
Vnol is delicious to take, and con-
tains all the active curative principles
of cold liver oil in a highly cOncentra-
ted form, and it is, therefore, the
greatest specific known for coughs,
colds and bronchial troubles.
You would not eat an egg, shell and
all. For the same reason you should
not take old-fashioned cod liver oil or
emulsions, just to get the medicinal
curative elements which they contain.
The Ninol manufacturers separate
them for you, throw away the useless
oil and give you in delicious, concen-
trated form all the healing and life
giving elements which are to be found
in fresh Gods livers. That is what
gives Vinol it's wonderful power to
cure Coughs, Colds and all throat
and lung troubles, and makes it the
greatest tonic reconstructor known to
medicine. Knights Pharmacy Co.

ORCHESTRA AND CHOIR
UNITE IN A CONCERT
Symphony Players and Singers of Car
roll Institute Delight Large Audience
With Their Excellent Work.

A Joint concert by the Washington
symphony Orchestra and Carroll Insti-
tute Choir served to draw a large au-
dience to the Columbia Theater last
night when Rossini's ''Stabat Mater"
with orchestral accompaniment, and
symphony program by the orchestra un-
der Mr.. DeKoven's direction formed
the evenings entertainment The repu-
tation of the local orchestra did much
to attract the large audience. but after
the performance of the Rossini work
by the choir. the latter organization will
undoubtedly do much toward filling the
house upon its next appearance.
The first half Of the program was de-
voted to the orchestral numbers which
included the overture to "Euryanthe. a
number that scored a distinct artistic
success at the symphony concert last
Friday afternoon; The Adagio." from
Saint Saens' Second Symphony: the
Peer Gynt Suite" of Grieg: DeKoven's
Flower Ballet and several other
compositions. In all it's numbers the
orchestra repeated the impression made
last Friday. and verified the prediction
that 1t would take it's place among first
class symphony organizations of the
country Under Mr.. DeKoven's leader
ship its work was admirable, ard the
dpplduSt was ana sincere.
In the past few months much has
been said and written about the Car
roll Institute Choir. but II remained for
them last night to demonstrate what
fine material it is made of. In the
familiar numbers Of the "Stab bat Mater
chorus and soloists sang with fervor,
precision, and the exactness of expe-
rienced singers. Mrs. Clara Baker
Smith, musical director of the choir.
has rehearsed the singers continually.
and the amount OF work done by Mrs
Smith and the choir in preparation for
the concert last night was manifest IN
the thoroughness of its results. The
soloists were Mrs. Annie Grant Fugftt
soprano; Mrs Margaret Nolan Martin
contralto; William ID. Mcfarland, tenor,
and Arthur w. Porter. basso. Each was
accorded generous applause for their
respective work. The choir is com
posed of about eighty-five members,
most Of whom are choir singers of
Washington.
The entertainment last night began a
series of pop concerts. a form of
amusement that has never previously
been carried to success here. II will
be continued throughout the winter

BY the death in this city on Saturday
Of John r. Proctor the merit system
loses one Of its sincerest and most con-
sistent friends and advocates. His ap-
pointment TO the Civil Service Commits
sion was due to the record which he es-
tablished while serving as State geolO-
gist Of Kentucky. During his incum-
bcncy OF that office he persistently re-
fused to make appointments for political
reasons, even when urged 20 do 80 by
the governor of the State. He went so
far as TO advise that the survey be
closed rather than serve as part OF the
political machine. The fact that Mr..
Roosevelt, while Civil Service Commits
s.oner, urged the appointment OF Mr..
Proctor on the commission IS proof OF
the Presidents earnestness in the mat
ter Of civil service reform.
A South Carolinian has challenged a
Washingtonian TO duel with any kind

as bad as to call man mental, phys
