SYMPTOMS OF CONSUMPTION
Yield to Vino1.

The medical profession do not be-
neve that consumption is inherited,
but a person may inherit weakness
or tendency to that disease.
A prominent citizen Of Evansville,
Ind. writes: Il was i'll for five
months with pulmonary trouble, and
had the best of doctors; had hemorr-
hages and was in a very bad way.
Through the advice Of friend tried
Vinol, and I feel that it saved my
life. It is all you recommend it to
be. believe it is the greatest medt-
cine on earth. I have advised others
to try Vinol, and they have had the
same results (Name furnished on

Vinol soothes and heals the inaamed

creates an appetite, strengthens the
digestive organs and gives the patient
strength to throw of incipient pulmo'

He anticipates having a nice

Three years ago on the 18th

like occasion at the hospitable
domicil of this same gentleman
and as we have often remarked
since we never enjoyed a better
day.
Since then an Allwise Ruler

For a Clean Town

Mr.. Editor:-Please allow me
space to say a few words in re-
gard to civic improvement OF
our town. We do not doubt
that the city council do the best
they can with the limited sup
ply Of funds. and do not intend
this article as a reproach in any
way. There is, however, a lack
of neatness and cleanliness ap-
parent in numerous places and
we would emphasize the imDor-
tance of individual property
owners doing ali in their power
to have unsightly obstructions
made to look better or to be en-
tirely removed. There are sheds,
shanties and ugly buildings on
Main street. There are placards
and posters out of date which
ought to be torn down. About
some places are old tin cans,
banana peels, loose Iaper and
other trash. Some of the old
worn out buggies, wagons etc.
might be taken away. Lets
have a cleanup day. We ought
to have a clean, healthy, beauti-
full town. The council would
do we'll to insist on a civic orga-
nization and these t vo work
ing hand-in-hand, would make
these hills look like an eden
whose beauty would cause men
to want to live in keeping with
their surroundings.

The convention was, general
ly speaking, quiet and harmon
ious. While there were sonie
spirited debates everybody kept
their equilibri I'm and staid in a
good humor. Blease and Jones
were mentioned casually in
some of the debates, but nothing
was said or done on either side
to mar the feelings OF the friends
of either or to draw the lines.
No effort was made by either
side to commit the con ention
by endorsement of anyone's
candidacy. 1t was generally
conceded, however, that more
than a majority of the members
of the convention favored the
candidacy Of Judge Jones. The
strongest evidence of this fact is
in the election Of delegates to
the State convention. at least
five of them, it is generally con-
ceded. being Jones men.
