TOE BANNER, TUESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 9, 1902. 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.

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.

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.

Paine's Celery Compound Is an lDiallible Care lor All Foims of 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.
