?hel?amfrerg3|eralb ESTABLISHED APR IE, 1891. ' Thursday, Dec. 13,1917. \ - ? - ~ Congressman Dominick is liable to get in bad with his big chief. We see by the papers that he was strong for declaring war upon Austria-Hun# gary. Mr. Dominick was one of a few men in congress who were unstintedly opposed to war at the start. Before long we shall hear of some other prominent politicians falling in line with the government. It is good policy to do so?even if such action is belated. * * * * ? * The farmers of this county have always been progressive. A progressive step for them now will be the - - -f tnKoOfn Tt ic nrvt rvrnK. planting ui jlv xo *w>, viable that tobacco will be a gold mine the first year it is planted, but with a few years' experience it can be made one of the county's most important products. The people are not urged to plant it on a large scale all at once. But suppose you try a fewacres next season and see how you come out. If you can have two money crops instead of one, you w-ill be that much better off. If you fail, the experiment will not have cost you very much. ?**** We notice that Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, chairman of the woman's com J ~ ' . mittee of the national council of defense, favors all tobacco users ob^ serving a smokeless Friday in each week. Of course, the good doctor, being a woman, does not smoke, and therefore does not appreciate the sacrifice that would thereby be entailed . upon those who use the weed after each meal to 'digest" their food. Seriously, however, the suggestion may not be a bad one. If it is necessary for smokers to sacrifice some of their . - joy in order that he soldier boys may have tobacco, then they should make the sacrifice, and do it willinggffe'V' We do not advise people against spending their money for Christmas, because to do so would be useless, |- and also because that is their own business, but when you are eating your turkey and cranberry sauce, you might remember that there are many thousands of people who really have not enough upon their tables to gratify a healthy appetite, to say nothing of a luxurious dinner, and make it a point to fix up a nice basket or so and give it to some poor family. It will not be necessary to send the bas! ket to New York or some other big C / city; we daresay, there are a good j many needy families within easy / reach of you. */ RESULTS AMAZING I <tm imiiMRtAN UX1IU vvuwiiM'MMi I I ?

' c _____ ""I wouldn't take all the money in Columbia for the good Vitona has done me," said J. M. Kirby, 1910 Hampton street, a well known Columbia citizen, a few days ago. "Yes, sir," continued Mr. Kirby, "the results I obtained from Vitona have simply been amazing, for I had been going down hill fifteen months and could find nothing to cueck my troubles until I took Vitona. I've been taking it only two weeks and have actually gained six pounds, already. "I was in a very bad run-down condition and was losing weight and strength every day. In fact, I fell off twenty pounds. I was so ner/ vous at night I couldn't sleep and all during the day I was tired and list) iqcc T nroc oIpa trAiiVilod irifVi in. x nuo aiOU ti vuui^u n xvu nx digestion and couldn't eat hardly anything without suffering afterwards. I got so weak it was all that I could do to work and several times I came pretty near giving up altogether. "I shall always bless the day 11 began taking Vitona for I began then to regain my lost health, after the first few doses, and now I'm not like the same man. I have a good appetite, eat anything I want,s and my food agrees with me perfectly. I'm not nervous any longer, my sleep is soun? and restful and I get up every morning feeling just fine. My work is no longer a burden, but instead is a pleasure to me. I am gaining in weight and strength every day and am beginning to feel like mv old self aerain. My wife says I am always talking about Vitona and praising it for almost making j a new man of me. It's the finest thing of its kind I have ever seen."
