A WARNING
TOTHE PEOPLE OF FARMyILLE.
Much Sickness Predicted This Fall.
Early Precautions Should
BE Taken.

"Our seasons nowadays seem TO be
all mixed up" remarked Herald re-
porter the other day 10 Mr.. II. {. Crute,
our well known druggist. "Ihe winter
seems TO have tumbled into summer
and summer into winter. IL is stated
by health authorities that such sudden
changes cannot help but result in early
fall colds, the grippe and other sickness.
This condition Of things is also bad for
old people, or those who are run down
or have tendency 10 any weakness or
disease.
"You are right said Mr.. Crute, "the
weather indications all point TO a cold,
wet and generally unhealthy fall, and
people are warned TO take extra pre-
cautions to ward of sickness, especially
the old, and those who are already in
delicate health.
"If ! could only meeteyery person I'm
this city face to face and tell them
what grand protection TO health Ninol
is. / know / could convince them so
/ would not have clerks enough i'm my
store to fill their orders. You see, We
have been selling Ninol for several
years, and every bottle is sold on
positive guarantee that If it does not
do as we say, we will pay back the
money, and as we have not been asked
to refund for more than two bottles out
ofevery hundred sold, this proves that
Vinol is successful in ninety-eight cases
out Of every hundred.
ave never sold a medicine that is 80
universally successful; and yet this is
not strange, for NlnOl Is the only prep
aration Of cod liver oil which does not
contain oil, or any disagreeable feature,
yet does contain every one Of the fifty
odd medical curatives that are found
in cod liver oil.
"If you know Of any one who needs
the grandest, surest, most pleasant
tonic rebuilderof strength, one that will
positively cure chronic colds, coughs,
bronchitis, strengthen the old, build up
the weak and run down and make
rich, red blood and health in place Of
pallor and weakness, just send them
in here for a bottle Of Ninol, and If II
does not do them good il won't cost
them a cent II. G.. Crute, Druggist
As this invitation is broad and the
guarantee protects every person in
Farmyile, we should advise every all
ing person to accept Mr.. Crute's offer

No Registrars in the State.

Not a solitary registrar will be left in
the State between Jan. l. 1904, until
after March l., 1904.
The terms OF the present members OF
electoral boards were continued by the
new constitution to March /, 1901, but
they were shorn of power in the matter
of naming registrars after Jan. l, 1904.
The new electoral boards will 90 into
office March I, and they will have the
naming Of all judges and clerks Of cleo
ton.
The legislature may have power to
make provision for registrars during
the period named, though il is not
certain that the general assembly is
vested with that power when consti-
tutional enactment vacates the posi-
tons for a short term.

Evangelist Fife began one Of his big

any of the services, for the babies

they die in infancy and dogs have no

We were reminded Of this on last
Sunday when a dog entered one Of our

pulpit stand. Fortunately an usher
had charge of that side Of the church
who had as much aversion to dogs in
church as had the evangelist, and he
Just caught the canine by the collar

Who What When.

A minstrel show, bearing the above
name and under the management OF a
man named Boyer visited Farmville
during last Opera House season. Its
performance then thoroughly delighted
all who witnessed it, and not a voice
was heard except in praise. The same
Boyer, but not the same performers,
paid a return visit to Farmville last
Friday night, when the Opera House
stage was used for two hours by an ag-
gregation Of minstrel weaklings, who
attempted to amuse a full house with
one Of the most wretchedly poor per-
f,rmances ever seen in this town. The
people who paid their fifty or seventy
five cents to witness a minstrel Of same
name and merit as Who What When
Of 1902, were simply misled, deceived
and gulled by a set ofraw three-dollar-
a-week amateurs. May Farmville be
spared in future from the like Of Who
what When.
