an Awful Cough and
Threatened Lung Trouble.

Sumter, S. CT am an ocuIist
and for several years I suffered with an
awful cough and lung trouble, so that at
times was scarcely able to 20 about
on account of my condition. Ihad tried
almost every medicine recommended
for such troubles, without help. and
finally friend advised me to try Viuol
Before ! had taken one-half bottle I
could see an improvement. ! have now
taken six bottles and my cough is not
only gone but my general health is lota
better II. W. SNGLEfARY, Sumter.
s.
1t Is The combined action OF the medi.
eInal clements found in cod liyers to-
gether with the Matchmaking and
strength-creatiEg properties of tonic
iron, that makes Vinol so efficient for
chronic coughs, colds and bronchitis, at
the same time building up the weak
ened, rundown system.
We ask everyone in this vicinity who
Is troubled with q chronic cough. cold
or bronchitis to try bottle of Vinol,
with the understanding thatyour money
will be returned if 1t does not benefit.

pacity is below this.
Therefore when consumption is
heavy the pumps are ready TO furnish

EXCHANGE FAILS TO
HALT WILD TRADING
Excited Public Takes Seven
Million Shares During Week
in Face of Warning.

NEW YORK. Oct. 1c,-Wall Street
closed its second million share a
day" week with a bang. Prices shot
skywarG and the volume of trading
was tremendous for n half day. Over
seven million shares changed hands
during the week. Last week over
eight million shares were bought and
sold.
IL investors and speculators heard
the warning OF the New York Stock
Exchange issued early in the week
against the uncomfortable booming
market they paid little heed 10 it.
The banking interests can control
the big plungors-by marking up
MARGINS for loans---but they cant
handle few million stock traders
scattered from Bangor to Dallas. This

REVENGE FOR MADERO.

A member of the Huerta cabinet
in Mexico, Garcia Granados, has
been convicted before military
court of participation in the plots
against Francisco Madero and the
Madero government, and sentenced
to death. 1t will be doubted whether
campaign of reprisals will
strengthen the Carranza regime in
Mexico. Granados is not understood
to have been accused or convicted
of completely in the murder of Ma
dero and Suarez, but merely of par
ticipation in the movement to over
throw the President.
Decent public opinion the world
over would applaud a sincere and
we'll directed effort to bring to JUS
tice the men who wrought the foul
murders of a President and vice
president. But when it comes to

bloody hands to hospls0
The defeat of the Austrian afkns
was one of the most decisive in the
war, and from that time until the
last few days enemies have been
kept off the Kingdoms soil.
Serbia must get supplies and re-
endorsements such as it's allies may
forward, chiefly by the Orient rail-
way line, which runs southerly
through Serbia and then into Greece.
1t passes within few miles of the
Bulgarian border, and the first OBJ
ject of Bulgarian strategy will be
to plunge over the border, seize and
cut this line of communication. The
British and French are hurrying
forces by way of Salonika, up the
railroad, to help the Serbs hold back
the Bulgars. 1t may be expected
that a great struggle will come be-
fore long on one or both the Serbian
fronts; that in the north, where the
Austro- Germans must be faced, and
that to south and east, where the
Bulgars will try to drive through
The horror that awaits Serbia, nc
matter what the final. event, is
staged to be one of the most awful
that any war has ever seen.

work of feeling the way into battle
for the American navy has fallen to
the lot of our torpedo boat destroy
ers--ships not built to plow through
all kinds of weather unattended on
scouting trips, but to hover near the
line-of- battle feet, to repel under
water attackers.
Shall the American navy be COM
PEELED to continue to shoulder the
already overworked destroyers with
the hardest job afloat--scouting-or
can the coming Congress and its
naval advisers be relied on to cor
rect what today is the most glaring
deficiency in our first line of de-
fense?

CONFIDENCE IN RAILROADS

There is no better sign Of these
times than the fact that the invest
ing public is better pleased with the
railroad shares than it has been
for very long period. 1t is a re-
Election of generally improved busi-
ness conditions, incident to the pro-
duction Of a magnificent crop, and
the expansion Of foreign trade. Only
a few weeks ago the ndustrials,
particularly those whose operations
have been closely associated with
the production Of war supplies for
Europe, seemed to have the call on
the investors interest. Now the
market is more catholic; there Is
disposition to realize that the in
crement of prosperity must be dis
tributed to all sections and elements,
and that the railroads are certain
to enter, along with the rest of the
country, upon a period of better
things.
1t has not been a rapid process,
this re-establishment of confidence
in the railroads, after the long per-
iod cf attack to which they were
subjected. But the tide has de-
cidedly turned, and with every indi.
cation that the new condition ID
going to be a substantial and con.
tinuing one.

WHAT ABOUT SEA scOUTsa

Recent forecasts of the probable
naval schedule indicate a comfort
ing tendency toward the construc-
tion of big, powerful battle cruisers,
to be the masters of everything
afloat, and the laying down of
enough submarines to satisfy even
the most hysterical reader of re-
ports from the war zone; but what
has become of the navy's problem of
lacking small, swift scouting boats
Last spring an immense war
game was held off the Atlantic coast
by the Atlantic fleet. Admiral
Fletcher, just as he must have acted
in war, struggled under a paucity of
scouting vessels. AS a result, when
the American fleet was massed for
attack off the upper coast the
"enemy" ships stole southwark and
sneaked into the Chesapeake, win
ming the war game.
Today the Atlantic feet is being
put to similar test. Admiral
Fletcher faces the problem of going
to sea to fight blindly, or of hug
ging the shore, uncertain as to
strategy. Where are the "eyes" OF
the American navy? =
True enough, there are several
aeroplane "eyes," but they are
working overtime at Pensacola
where a few more naval aviators
are being added to the small list Of
qualified birdmen. There are parlol
Sea-strategists who might point Out
the Birmingham, Chester, ano
Salem, our three scout cruisers, as
the navy's "eyes." They were bat
experiments at best, and are moi
made better by the navy's lack Of
confidence in them.
Therefore, the immense and vita
