say with all the earnestness I am capable
Of having, I advise you to put your money
right here for the biggest, safest and best
investment I know on earth today-cannot
make it any stronger.
Out of all the great mines of Shasta
California, two have been re-
nuested by the Worlds Fair Association
to make an exhibit at the fair. One of
them is our ccmpany-the Great Western.
4 letter from the president of the COM
parry just received states that 100000
worth of ore has been blocked out in the
past four weeks, and at the present out
look there would be 100000 more
during the next three weeks 1t is q
matter of impossibility for me to describe
what we have it is simply immense. Take
my advice, buy the stock; if you don't
you will regret it inside of three months.
Buy all you can before advance. Next
advance will be SLIGO without doubt.
There is no fake nor fraud here, but a
fTst-class, square out, honorable propo-
sition. A recent letter from the presi-
dent. an extract of which is given be-
low, will show you what kind of man
we have at the head of this grand or
ganization: Brother Fife:-I wish every
poor man who works hard for his dollars
and has a few of them laid up for a rainy
day, could be induced to put money in
Great Western, and make his load lighter
in future. These are the men l like to
see buy Great Western
If you cannot buy but $1,000 send it
along. Buy 800, $500, $1,000, So
GOO. The sale viii be over in a very
short time, as we have nearly all the
money we need. Address all orders and
make cheeks payable to me and l will
personally look after your interest.

TONGUE-TIED ORATOR.
A Story to Illustrate V.Iuable Every Day
FSc'.

ITO illustrate a point l wish to make, y
said Mr. King of the w. II. King Drug
Co.: "let me tell you of an orator who
had the most wonderful eloquence of any
man I ever knew Yet he had great
misfortune. He was tongue-tied and
when he got UP to make speech he
would stammer and stutter and finally
have to sit down Yet about once n
five or six times his trouble would vanish
and then tell you he was simply grand.
Now, my point is this: O!dtaShlonei
cod liver oil is like that orator once
in great many cases it does immense
good, but oftener than not the sticky
nasty oil or the unwholcsome materials
used to make it into an emulsion so IN
terfere with digestion that all It's medlcl-
nal value is lost. Yet We Know genuine
strength building curatives are enVeIoped
in the oil.
How shall we get these valuable
ealth-bulding, medicinal elements Wlth
out taking the nasty oil also?
THAT question was answered by the
two great French chemists, Gautier ara
Mourgues, who gave to the world their
great discovery Of separating the cufa-
tive medicinal clements always known 10
exist in the Gods liver, from the OH or
useless part.
THE product is known as Vlnol-Whlch
actually contains all that IS incidentally
good of cod liver oil, without one drop OF
oil or any disagreeable feature-tnus pro
ducing the grandest tonic recorstructo'
known to medicine. Vinol IS now max
ng remarkable cures as a tome ana res
torative where old-fashoned cod llVef OIL
failed. We guarantee it to make sCrens ~
for the weak, vitalize the oid: cure
coughs, hanging on colds and prohchiai
troubles. If it does not it won't cost
you cent to try it." w. II. King Drug

A DESTITUTE HOME
FREED HIM
w. F. VideIIe to be Given
His Liberty From
County Jail.

w. F. Videll, who has been in Wake
county Jail since November 14th., awaiting
a trial at the next term of Superior Court
for larceny, will be released today. Videll
from the Neuse River Cotton Mills, and
confesses that he took the wood at the
Falls of Neuse, but says that at the time
he was penniless and his family was suf-
fering, and that because of his distress he
carried the wood from the premises of the
mills in which act he was detected.
He was ordered arrested by Mr.. ]. A.
Drew, manager of the mills, and was tried
by Justice of the Peace Hunter, OF the
Falls of Neuse, who bound him over to
criminal court under a bond which the
prisoner could not give. The man was
brought to Raleigh directly and placed
in Wake county Jail.
Videll is twenty-eight years of age He
has a wife and two children-both boys
one of which was born a few days ago.
The attention of the authorities who
were prosecuting Videll was called to the
destitute condition of his wife and two
children, who are said to have had no sup
port whatever, and Mr.. Drew, manager Of
the mills, stated it was not his desire to
punish the man. The operation OF thieves
in that vicinity was becoming so common
that it was a source Of great loss, as well
as annoyance. He said he would do any
thing he could for Videll, and if Videll
would promise not to remain at the Falls
of Neuse he would have the prisoner re-
leased on his recOgnizance
Viden made the promise, and in re-
Spouse to a call over the phone Mr.. Drew
said he would have Videll turned loose to-

MR.. BLAIR'S POSITION.
Act of Student Body Incendiary and
AnarChiCai in Tendency.

To the Editor: You will please do me
the kindegs to allow me to state that the
reoprt of your Washingto correspondet
does me an Justice. My protest was not
against the passing Of the very mild and
conservative resolutions in references to
the act of the school boys, but against the
taking of any action at all on such ques-
lions in the meetings of our press associa-
ton.
am very glad to say that l am ready to
condemn the act of the student body as
incendiary and anarchical in its tenden-
CIV and worthy of the most unqualified
condemnation; but my vote III the mega
tive was simply an expression of my
convi.tion that we should take no action
at ali. I am cleverly of the opinion that
a repetition such course is liable
to rend the association, and destroy its
usefulness. Having just returned and
seen for the first time a copy Of your issue
of the 4th, hasten to send this note and
ask that it be given conspicuous place.
Yours very truly,
