The town is again full of tall
grass, every street, every ditch and
almost all the sidewalks, except
the business portion of Main street
are full of wonderful growth OF
tall grass. These high grasses
may be nice to look at, but they
are a great INCONVENIENCE to our
people leaving outside of Main
street who have to be out early in
the morning when the grass Is
wet. The town looks at this time
like an abandoned plantation.
There is no reason for this, the
town has money in its treasury,
aud we believe it is the duty Of
the authorities to cut the grass
and keep it down, keep the town
in good condition, free from tall
grasses on our streets, sidewalks
and bitches; if they do not want
to do this, the next best thing they
can do is to suspend the stock law
and turn the cattle loose on our
streets, they will rid us of the
nuisance.

HAVE YOU WEAK LUNGS?
Do You Fear Consumption?

when we take into consideration
the fact that one out of every seven
in this climate die of consumption, is
it any wonder that it is feared by the
people of Aaleigh who have weak lungs
ard chronic colds and coughs" said
Mr.. King, of the w H. King Drug
Co., to News and Observer reporter.
"A famous London physician has for
years urged his patients, when the
slightest tendency to consumption ap-
Beared, to take all the cod liver oil
possible into their system, and physl-
clans everywhere have recognized its
value for coughs, colds, bronchltls,
consumption and all wasting diseases,
but, unfortunately, few could take IL
and derive any benefit from its use, on
account of the indigestible grease
which it contained.
"Now" continued Mr.. King. Il want
every person in Raleigh to know the
value of our new cod liver oil actually
taken from fresh Gods livers, without
a. drop of oil or grease to upset the
stomach and retard its work.
Therefore, wherever old-fashioned
cod liver oil or emulsiOns will do good,
Vinol will do far more good We guar
antee Vinol will improve the appetite,
strengthen digestion, make rich, red
blood, create strength, cure chronic
coughs and colds and strengthen weak
lungs
I'VE have letters from people who
have been given up to die in consump-
ton and claim to have been cured by
Vinol Among others is the following
from Mrs. j. CT. Brown, of Anderson,
Ird.:
"'Our daughtr was on the verge OF
the grave with consumption. Our fam
lily physician said she could not poSsl-
bly, recover. She was so weak we could
only give her half teaspoonful OF
port wine at a time, this being the
oniy thing she could take into her
stomach. We tried Vincl, however,
and, after taking several bottles, cur
daughter was up and taking hermeals
regularly, and is now as healthy rs
She ever was. We hope other dear
ones may be saved as ours was, and
words are inadequate to express our
gratitude 10 YOU and your splendid cod
liver oil preparation, Vinol.

our customers, we return your money

great test for his strength during!
the day when he became caught on

the Simmons Manufacturing company
and by his unaided strength braced
himself against the ceiling and saved
himself from being crushed.
Every stitch of clothing on the man
was torn from his body and the big
belt cut into his flesh, but he managed
to hold himself from the shaft until
the clothing was torn of, when he
fell back to the floor. An inVestiga-
ton showed that no bones had been
broken but the muscles were terribly
strained by the awful ordeal.

Washington, Dec. 15.-The contest
between the ways and means commit
tee and the interstate and foreign
commerce committee for control Of
insurance legislation was continued in
the house during the day. Mr.. Payne
took the floor to show that the power
to tax was the only way in which con-
gress could get control over insurance
and the ways and means committee
had jurisdiction over the taxing power.
A review of judicial opinions was
made by Mr.. Payne to substantiate his
position that insurance was not inter
state commerce. He contended that in
the face of the unanimous opinion of
the supreme court the only legislation
touching insurance that would be held
to be good would be to tax It.
Mr.. Mann (Ill.) sought by question
Ing Mr.. Payne to ascertain just how
insurance companies could be reached
through the taxing powers, but Mr..
Payne refused to throw light on this
point. He said he could not form an
Insurance bill offhand.
Mr.. Mann said he saw great diff
Guilty in regulating insurance through
the taxing power, but he did believe
regulation might be secured under the
commerce clause of the Constitution.
q Regulation through prohibiting mail
facilities to insurance companies which
did not comply with prescribed regu-,
lation was suggested by Mr.. Davis
