PUNY CHILDREN.
Parents Should Know How to Keep
Children Weil-lIXpert advice
by Raleigh Druggists.

''We do not wish to blame any of
our friends for that which they cannot
help, but sometimes when we see del
icate and puny children, we cannot
help feeling that parents are neglect
full" said Mr.. King of the w. II. King
Drug Co, during a recent interview.
IF we could only make all fathers
and mothers in Raleigh regard what
we say. especially if their little ones
are delicate, how glad they would be
afterward. They can make their
children strong and we'll They can
lay a fundation stone in their little
lives that will give them joy and hap
piness in years to come and they will
become strong and hearty men and
women, if they will only believe what
we say about Vinol and follow our ad-
vice.
Remember Vinol contains all the
active curative principles taken di-
rectly from fresh Gods livers without
grease or oil, and its taste is delicious,
and that is what gives it such power
to assist the stomach of the little ones
to properly assimilate the food
which they eat. 1t is the means by
which rich, red blood is made; strong
bone structure is built hard, firm,
flesh tissue is created, and healthy,
sound nerves maintained
Mrs Jennie Perse, l69 Newman ST.,
Mansfield, o., says:
81 wish to add few words of praise
for Vinol. My little boy was very
much run down, so much SO that he
had to leave school. He really was a
mere shadow. / decided to give him
Vinol, and he is rapidly gaining flesh.
| wish to recommend Vinol to every
mother who has puny, ailing chill
dren."
Not only for children but for adults
do we recommend Vinol as the great
est strength creator and rebuilder OF
health, without reservation, and stand
prepared to refund all money to those
who do not find absolute satisfaction
in it's use w. II. King Drug co.

Cmpany, which recently acquired the
Caldwell d Northern, a narrow gauge
line extending from Lenoir to Col

converting it into a standard gauge,
and is building an additional 13 miles
up Wilson'S Creek gorge to Careys

Company, which owns the railroad
from Cranberry to Pinola, in Mitchell
county, has purchased the standing
timber in a 42,000-acre tract on Will
sons creek from the Pemcarden Lum-
Der Company, and is building a stand
ard gauge road from Pinola TO connect

and Elizabethon, SO that, should this
road complete the broadening of its
gauge up Roe river gorge to Cranber-
ry, and the Ritter people make their
road standard between Cranberry and
Pinola there would be a through line
from Chester, S. c., to Johnson City,
Tenn, all standard width. Rumors
have been current that some such plan
was on foot, but railroad people fail
to confirm them, and say that there
are physical difficulties that are prac-
tically umsurmountable. notably in the
celebrated Roe river gorge. Another
railroad is to the effect that the Vir-
ginia Southwestern, owning road
extension from Butler. Tenn, through
Bristol to Big Stone Gap, Va, and the
South & Western, whose line runs
from Johnson City, Tenn, to Spruce
Pine in Mitchell county, are trying to
