OLD AGE
Not a Time Of Life. or Length of Years,
but a Condition Of Bodily Tissues,

said a celebrated London physician,
and Just So long as the bodily tissues
can be kept from wasting and built
up, just So long can old age he kept at
bay, and people will be alert, alive,
active and young.
our well known druggists, Messrs.
II. &. Crute a Co., say "OurcOd liver
oil preparation, Ninol, is the greatest
tissue builder and inyigorator i'm the
world for old people. There nothing
else known To medicine that can equal
il, because NinOl contains in a concern
trated form all of the bodybuilding,
life-giying principles of cod liver oil
actually taken from fresh Gods liyers,
and is not stimulant which produces
bad after effects. We have letterupOn
letter from grateful old people whom
NinOl has strengthened and blessed
with robust health. Ninol invigorates
the stomach first of ALL enabling il TO
separate from the food the elements
needed forrich, red blood, healthy body
material and sound. steady nerves. I'm
this way trepairs worn tissues, checks
the natural decline and replaces weak
ness with strength"
Mr. \. j. Barker, of Evansville, In
diana, say, there is no other medicine
in the world equal to Ninol forold peo-
pie. lie would not take a thousand
dollars for the good it has done him.
The grand-niece of Alexander Hamil-
ton, Mrs. Sarah J. Wndrom, says:
"Ninol is a g0dseud to old people"
She is seventy-siX years old, and is ac-
tive and well, thanks 10 the vitalizing
effects of Ninol.
We wish every man or woman i'm
FarmNille who "feels old, whether
they are 80 in years. or not, would try
NinOl on our guarantee To return their
money if they are not satisfied after

In an interview which was recently
published i'm the News-Leader, Mr.,
swanson is reported a. saying, "Well,
we will get away from here about
March LIST and shall 90 to my home
and attend to few private matters.
Then the campaign begins with a ven
geance." And then the truest to the
Democratic party Of the State becomes
intensified The honorable gentleman
would do well TO remember that the
God Of all the Earth has said, oven

the Lord Would that we could
have canvass for the nomination

We are almost persuaded in advance
to promise our support to the Demo-
crat who best rules his own spirit.
The Farmville herald. [volume] (Farmville, Va.) 1890-1934, 1905-02-10

There will be two fights for the Gov.
ernOrship in Virginia this year. One
will be for the nomination i'm the Demo.
cratic primary, and the other will be
with the Republican candidate i'm the
general election. So there will be fun
in Virginia politics this year, and lots
Of it.-Petersburg lndex-Appeal.
1--WE told you So" And who did it?
Our worthy contemporary in part by
urging that the whiskey fight cannot
be kept out Of the canvass. 1t can be
and ought to be. Not that il is not an
important question, but that it is one
upon which loyal Democrats and good
citizens are hopelessly divided. "ne-
ligion is the chief concern Of mortals
here below" and when everthe Demo
Gratis undertake to make it a party
question, look out for squally, yea
rather for billiards, cyclones, water
spouts, deluges, war, pestilence and
famine in party ranks.
The Herald's solution Of the whis-
key problem is the "safe and sane One.n
Let all moderate drinkers and all
Christian drinkers stop drinking, and
the bottom falls out Of the liquor traf-
iic. Repeat it, brother, to Democrats
and Republicans alike, and when
adopted there will be no need of fur

1t is again rumOred that Mr.. Tucker

Nes, we are very sorry for you, and
our charity shall descend like mantle
upon you. Now come along and help
the three papers you mention In their
efforts to save the Democratic party
from the impending storm.-Peters-
burg lndeX-Appeal.
Thanks for the sweet sympathy and
for the mantle of ascending Elijah,
but your Macedonian wall for "help'
would have been altogether unneces-
sary if the timely advice Of the Herald
had been needed. We long since urged
and still urge that there is no need
that the Democrats should 90 TO quar-
relng over the whiskey issue. With
Virginia safely Democratic then all
the great questions, moral and ma
terial, which concern her will be safely
and sanely dealt with.

Senator Bailey, Of Texas, is very
much aggrieved because Dr. Alderman
said in a speech recently delivered in

had Clays or CalhOuns to send to

tiers and prosecutes successfully a good

Tom Lawson, Of "frenzied finance
notoriety, has put on foot some new
enterprises i'm the country, and our
hope is that he has taught the people |
TO keep their money circulating in
their own communities and not hurry /
it all to New York to be used there by |
the magnates for speculation pur-
poses. As long as the world stands
there will be room i'm it, and work in

against is the "frenzied' variety.
The instructions and speeches in the
Fishburn case were all too long Col
umn after column constructions must
be confusing to the average juror and
twenty hours of speech making divid-
ed among three speakers must have
been hurtful rather than helpful. 1t

deal with the testimony of two days
in a speech of an hour, but in our Opin-
ion the one who would confine him
self to within reasonable limits would
be much more effective.
Rev. Ian McIaren advises young
men mot TO get married if the insur-

business men. Even good farm is no
longer a sure support for widow and
young children, for a farm without
labor is aS useless as a wagon without
horses.
Gen. Miles says he dealt very ten

that those manacles were
meant as badges Of shame and not
mere ornaments. The idea that they
were necessary to keep the exalted
prisoner from escaping is nonsense.

"BUT FOR THE GRACEOFGOD THERE
GOES JOHN BAXTER"

At the hour Of this day during which
some Of our patrons will be reading
this issue Of the Herald. in all human
probability, J. Samuel McCue will be
paying the penalty Of an atrocious
crime. Here is a man born Of repu-
table parents, reared in polite circles,
educated i'm the best schools, the hus-
band Of refined and cultured lady,
the father Of happy children, honored
and trusted by his fellow citizens, an
official in his church, and yet i'm an
evil hour he becomes a criminal of the
deepest dye, and stains his hands and
his heart with the life blood Of wo-
man he had sworn, in presence Of God
and man to honor, love and defend.
Surely that old saint was right when,
on seeing a criminal led TO his eXecu-
ton, exclaimed, But for the grace Of
God there goes John Baxter"
