medicine and it contains besides tonic
ion all of the medi iual curative ele-
ments Of cod liver oil actually taken
from fresh Gods livers, but without a
drop Of oil To nauseate and upset the
stomach and tard its work; therefore,
wherever old-fashioned cod liver oil OF
emulsions will do good, NinOl Will do
far more good.
SecO nd: Because NinOl acts first upon
the stomach, creates a healthy appe-
tite. strengthens and tones up the d -
gestve organs, purilies and enrlches
the blood, and in a natural manner,
restores health and strength.
Third: Because Nin0l contains no
injurious drugs TO react upon the sys-
tenn; every ingredient being named on
the label, a patient knows exactly
what he is taking
Fourth: Because we never sold any
thing in our store that gave such uni
versal satisfaction fOrOld people, weak
sickly women and children, nursing
mothers, aid to build up the system
after a severe sickness, and for reliev-
ing hacking coughs, chronic colds,

At the recent session of the General
Assembly Of the Presbyterian Church,
South, what is known as the "Char-
lotte Agreement, was adopted after
earnest debate, and no doubt some
feeling. IL means, as we are told.
closer relations with the Northern
Presbyterians, and the strange part
about it is that the Virginia Prebyte-
ries voted against its adoption while
those Of States further South voted
for it. In Affairs temporal South Car
olina is sure 10 lead the revolt, while
in things spiritual that honor belongs
t. Virginia. The wonder is that
Christs prayer for more than organic
union has not as yet been answered.

Some people are complaining that
the life insurance companies Of the
country seem all TO be under fire But
they are not all under fire by large
odds, and the mere fact that they are
so closely watched should he subject
of general c0ngratulation. The great
body of business men dependent upon
life insuran ,e for protection To their
families and this aye can't afford to
DO without 10. aud one of the remarka-
bic facts connected with the life in
surance business is that there should
have been so few failures. The actua-
.ies tell as that il Is an exact science,
inathematically certain, and there
should be no failures. They know
just what 10 costs to insure human
life within the bounds of the insura-
blc age and this being so there is moth
ing speculative in the transaction.
The mortality table is as accurate as
well regulated clock and this is the
lhuence Of the business Of
life insurance. I'm civilized society
man must have confidence i'm others,
and no 50 tenn can be more safely
trusted than that Of life insurance.
