LEFT ON HER DOORSTEP
FOR THIS MOTHER

Mrs. A. G. Tuson, Of Llvermore, Cal,
writes: q picked up from my door
step one day a little book in which I
soon became very much interested.
My little girl Of five years Of age had
been troubled for a long time with
loss Of appetite, extreme nervousness
and undue fatigue. She was all run
down and in a very delicate condition.
This little book was very compre-
hensively written. and told Of the new
method Of extracting the medicinal ele-
ments Of the Gods liver from the oil,
eliminating the obnoxious oil which is
so hard for children to take
Just the thing, said /, for my little
daughter and I Immediately went for
a bottle OF Vinol. 1t helped her Won
derfully. She has gained rapidly in
flesh and strength, and she does not
take cold half so easily.
Il am extremely grateful for the
good it has done her, and hope other
who have weak, delicate or
ailing children will be benefited by my
and just give Vinol a trial"

We had a brisk ride and arrived in

morning. We approached the dugout
cautiously. but upon getting in close
proximity to it we could discover no
horses in sight. No one was inside

The Fuller bill and the Ballard bill
are still pending in the house. They are
more radical than the Carmichael bill
and are designed to aid in the enforce

throws every safeguard around the law.
The Ballard bill provides for the impeach-
ment of officers who fail to put the law
into effect. Both of these bills will be
passed.
Under the Carmichael law, no liquor
over one-half of one per cent. can be
sold. Clubs cannot sell liquor, and a
revenue license is sufficient evidence to
close a place and convict. Warehouses
can be raided. The proceedings take
place in a chancery court.

FIGHT TOBACCO POOL.
Warehouse Men Have Agents in the
Field Among Planters.

Lexington, Ky.-While the Burley To-
bacco Society and the secretary of the
Society of Equity are fighting between
themselves over the form of organiza-
ton and pledge for a pool for the hurley
tobacco crop in 1909, it is currently re-
ported here that the tobacco warehouse
men of this city are quietly but actively
at work among the growers in an effort
to induce them to stay out of both pro-
posed pools, and send their tobacco to the
sales warehouses to be placed in the
open market. 4.
1t is said that these warehouses have
numerous agents in the field, and that
they have already secured promises from
q large number of the growers to disre-
gard the proposed pools and send their
tobacco here for sale.
These agents, it is reported, point to
the high prices which tobacco now COM
mands, and the readiness with which the
new crop can probably be sold next win
ter at high prices without any of the
risk, delay or uncertainty necessarily as

People of Neighborhood Doubt
Its Anthem ticity.

Obion, Tenn.-A report reached this
place Saturday morning that notices had
been posted at the fish dock at Reelfoot
lake, notifying the fishermen to sell no
fish to j. c. Burdick at Union City, w.
A. Pleasant at this place and c.. M.
Downing, who represents Mr.. Pleasant
at Hornbeak.
The report could not be verified until
this morning, when a man who lives ON
the lake was in town and told substan-
TALLY the following story:
Some time Friday night a notice was
posted on the door of the fish docks at
S~amburg, which notified Messrs. w. A.
Pleasant and c.. NJ. Downing, who have
made preparations at this place to han
die Reelfoot lake fish, not to enter BUSH
ness, and also notified the fishermen not
to sell any fish to either of the above
gentlemen, or to Mr.. Burdick at Union
City.
The notice was signed might Riders"
and stated that all the night riders were
not in Jail, nor had ever been, saying
they had stopped the selling of fish to
these gentlemen and did not intend to
let it begin again. At present the fish
are bought at the lake by Ira Ruble, who
hauls them to Union City and sells them
to J. G. Burdick. Ruble was not mott
fed to quit, and says he will continue
until notified to quit selling to Burdick.
