OFFERED BY MIR. E. c. FOWLER
 DRUGGIST, OF THIS CITY
For the Protection of Montgomery
 People Against Fraud.

It has come to the attention of Mir. E. G. Fowler that certain persons-we won't mention names-are circulating the report that his cod liver oil preparation, Vinol, is not what 1t is represented to be In many of It's essential features as claimed by him in his advertising-that 1t Is not a scientific preparation; in fact, that 1t IS not a cod liver oil preparation at all, and has no unusual medicinal value.
 MT. Fowler. therefore, through the col umns of The Advertiser, wishes to state that he Is ready to back the truth or the following claims for Vinol to the eX- tent of five thousand dollars.
 First, that Vinol Is true cod liver oil preparation.
 Second. that the curative principles con tained in vinol-all but the iron, which Is needful constituent for the blood-are actually taken from fresh cods' flyers and are not artificially prepared chemicals, said to resemble" the curative princi- ples found in the oil of the cod's liver
 Third. that while Vinol does positively contain the curative principles taken di- rectly from fresh cods' livers, 1t is de- liciOus to the taste and does not con tain a. particle of the fatty portion of the oil, which Is the useless part ana tfe- quently upsets the stomach.
 Fourth, that the process of separating the medicinal constituents from the oil is a scientific and intricate operation, dlS- covered, by two eminent chemists after years of experimenting. and is conducted with special apparatus which Is owned and operated by the makers of VinoL
 Fifth.S for the above reasons 1t Is prdc- tically impossible for any retail druggist with his limited manufacturing facilities to produce an article like Vinol. as It Is simply impossible to extract all the medi- cinal constituents found in the cod's liver from the oil alone; they must be sepa- rated from the oil and fresh livers both together. and by the special process above mentioned. thereby making any supsti- tute for Ninol unreliable.
 Sixth. that the combination of med ci- nal constituents known for years to exist in cod liver oil are recognized as among the greatest of all tonic rebuilders of wasted human tissue, strength and vital ity. and that they are contained in Vinol.
 These positive assertions made by MT. Fowler prove that a preparation con taining the curative clements found m the cod's liver. but entirely free from oil. grease and other inert matters must be the very best tonic reconstructor known to medicine. and as Vinol is all this, it places this scientific prepar tion in class by itself. and worthy of the utmost confidence of the people.

 road Men and Matters.

A peculiar accident happened in the north end of the Louisville and Nashville yards about 10 o'clock last night. an ac- cident that Is very rare In railroading.
 Yard engine 9SS was standing on track near the plant of the Montgomery Coop craze Company and the engine crew had left the machine. In some manner the throttle flew open and tine big piece of iron and steel went tearing down the track. A couple of box cars and a h1t ear obstructed the path of the runaway cars, after the roar of the collision, were laying oli their sides. But 1t stopped the rush of the engine which was then gotten
 if 1t had not been that the freight cars were in the way there is no accounting the damage that would have resulted. With clear track the engine would prob ably have rolled out on the main line, probably met train, causing fatalities.
 The engine is in the shops a little bat tered after the exciting experience.
 For some time there has been talk of the purchase or control of the Birmng- ham and Macon Railroad by the Atlanta and West Pont. The two have a meeting point at La Grange the NJ. and B. run lling only from Macon to La Grange. The surmises. however have proved incorrect, ns the Georgia Southern and Florida, which runs from Macon to Palatka, Fla has come into control. It is understood That the Southern is the dominating force. Closer watch on railroad tickets will be the order from now on and scalpers and others who deal in Tickets will have to hew close to the line or suffer losses.
