A STRENGTHENER
Vinol Promptly Overcomes
Weakness.
DEBILITY OFTEN PRECEDES
COMPLETE COLLAPSE.
We Want Every One to Know
How to Get Strong.
OUR VINOL IS A STRENGTH
CREATOR.
The saddest sight on earth isa. broken-
down man or woman.
We see such people every day right
here in our city.
It is pitiful to see a man that should
l>e in his prime dragging himself
through life dejected, discouraged and
broken down, due to some premature
weakness. It does not make any dif
ference whether this weakness is the
result of dissipation, indiscreet living
or disease; it can be overcome.
We have known of many very serious
cases of debility quickly overcome by
Vinol.
Vinol is & scientific rebuilder and
strength creator. It contains the active
curative principles of Cod-Liver Oil in
a highly concentrated form. The
benefit that can be derived from the
use of these properties is so well known
that there is no need for us to enter
into that subject.
We could quote many instances where
Vinol has done good; as an example,
bore is one coming from Jane S. Fen-
f ren, a prominent member of the W. C.
*X. U., and a resident of ISuncook, N. H.
JShe writes: *• — •
“I was run down, was in hed from
May to March. Was so nervous and
sickly that everyone thought I was in
a most precarious condition. My weight
was reduced to 120 pounds. 1 was ad
vised to take Vinol, which 1 did, and
am now very much better, and am able
to be about again. As a rebuilder and
a strength giver nothing can equal it.
Vinol is a God-blessing to anybody.”
t Because Vinol is delicious, and
because it does contain these
much-sought-after medicinal
properties we endorse it, and we
unhesitatingly proclaim that it is
better than any preparation of
cod-liver oil or tonic rebuiiderwe
have ever bad In our store.

House Votes Down Amendment to In
crease Genera! Tax Rate.
Atlanta, Lee. 8.—The horn*? Satur
day voted down the amendment to the
general tax bill hy Mr. Hall, of Bibb,
to increase the cornual tax rate to 6.22
mills, hy the large majority of 111 tt>
I.
The hill a«s reported by the ways and
means committee fixed the g^ner^l tax
i ate at 5 mills, of which 3.18 for
general put poses and 1 82 for th« sink
ing fund. In addition there is a tax
of .23 mills for the sinking fund, mak
ing a total of 5.23 mills, or $5.W on
*1.‘""».
Mr. Hall’s amendment proposed to
make the tax for general purpose* 4.J7
mills, an increase of .30 mills. This
would put the total at 6 22.
The committee's action fixing the
mx rate at 5 mills was adopted by a
urge majority vote.
The house adopted by a vote of 74
to 66, an amendment to the general
tax act. which requires that all for-
ign coronations having an office,
warehouse or salesroom In the state,
shall pay a specific or occupation tax
graduated from $23 to $1,000, In ac
cordance with the size of the capital
stock of such corporation.
This is considered by many one of
the most radical amendments to the
general tax bill over adopted by the
house, and great interest was manifest
ed in the debate and in tbo result.
No warmer fight ha* ever been
mad#* at this session than that on this
scM-tion of the general tax bill. which
proposes t.> put this graduated tax or.

Does |t Pay To Buy Cheap.
A cheap remedy for coughs and colds
is all right, but you want something
that will relieve and cure the more so
vore and dangerous results of throat
and lung troubles. What shall you do
Go to a warmer and more regular cli
mate? Yea, if possible; if not possible
for you, then in either case take the
only remedy that has been introduced
in all civilized countries with success in
severe throat and long troubles, “Bosch-
ee's German Syrup.” It not only heals
and stimulates the tissues to destroy the
germ disease, but allays inflammation,
causes easy expectoration, gives a good
night’s rest, and cores the patient. Try
one bottle. Recommended many years
by all druggists in the world. \ T ou can

RHEUMATISM.
Although we are all born with the
principles of dissolution in our frame
which continue to operate from our
birth to our death, we are under obliga
tion to Heaven and our loved ones to
keep ourselves free from disease andjiuf
fering. While death must come to
every human being, pain may be avoid
ed, and our days made happy and long,
if we keep the blood and physical strnc
tore in proper condition.
At this time, while we warm the
thousands of rheumatic sufferers of the
folly and danger of allowing rhevma
ti>m to run unchecked at this season of
the year, we can comfort them with the
happy assurance that Paine’s Celery
Compound permanently cures the terri
ble disease. This woudrous medicine
has won the hearty indorsation of med-
i *al men, and its virtues are lauded by
tens of thousands rescued from agony
and death. Mr, Chas. W. Lucker,
Mount pleasant, S C , who banished his
rheumatism by use of Pain’s Celery
■ ompound, writes thus :—
‘ It is now going on two months since
1 have taken Paine’s Celery Compound
for rheumatism. No other medicine, I
t link, could ever have done me so much
good I have i ot had an attack of it
s nee. Previous to taking the Com
pound, I tii-d everything, and had two

Wisconsin and Minnesota Families to
Settle In Alabama.
Birmingham. Ala., Dec. S.—Thirty
thousand acres of timbor land In
Walker and Winston counties have
changed hands within the last few
days, lump sura of $400,000 being in
consideration.
The Jasper I^and company, which
we ld options on practically al the tract,
made the sale, Wisconsin capitalists
being the purchasers. Charles J. Win
ston. Charles J. Gilbert. Neal Brown
find J. H. Koehler are among the larg
est holdeis in the new pun hase.
It is the intention of the proposed
new company tb divide the land into
40-acre tracts, building homes thereon
and locating several large saw mills.
Several hundred families will be located
on the land before spring, it is said.
The promoters of the scheme have or
ganized center colonies ami effected
development in Wisconsin, Minnesota
and California, and great things are
expected of them In western Alabama.
A 15-mile stretch of railroad will be
built right away through the belt of
land and will connect with the ’Fris
co and Southern railroads sit Jasper,
Ala. It is estimated that there are
200,000,000 feet of timber or the land
purchased. It is stated that after the
timber has been cut off th» land, it
will be. or rather most of it,
admirably adapted to agricultural pur
poses.
