The medical profession do not believe that consumption is inherited, but a person may inherit a weakness or tendency to that disease.

Through the advice of a friend I tried * J T -F - -1 il-.l ."i Vinoi, anu i ieei iuau il ?vcu m.j life. It is all you recommend it to be. I believe it is the greatest medicine on earth. I have advised others to try Vinol, and they have had the same results." (Name furnished on request.) Vinol soothes and heals the inflamed surfaces and allays the cough. Vinol creates an appetite, strengthens the digestive organs and gives the patient strength to throw oft incipient pulmonary diseases. Try a bottle of Vinol with the understanding that your money will be returned if It does not help you. HARMON DRUU COMPANY. Lexington, S. C. Battle of Herrea.

Indications irom late reports are that more than ninety people were killed, scores severely injured and great property loss sustained in the disastrous electrical tornado which swept parts of Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Lonisiana, Mississippi and Texas Thursday afternoon and night. Eighty odd deaths have been reported and the total loss of life will probably be increased when wire communication is restored in remote sections devasted by the clyelone. The damage to property cannot be estimated but probably will have to be computed in millions. Twenty-nine persons are reported to have perished in Georgia and damage to property is roughly estimated at $1,000,000.

The other fatalities in Georgia were nine at Tucker, fonr at Eaglsville, three at Clarkstown and two at Columbus. Late reports from Tennessee have increased the death toll in that State to twenty-three persons. Many sections swept by the storm have not been heard from. The loss of life in Alabama is estimated at thirteen, although several persons are still reported missing. Five negroes were hilled at New Decatur, three persons perished at Calera and two each at Stokes Bluff, Gaysviile and Duke. The greatest damage to property was the destruction of buildings and houses , in the sections of the States where deaths were reported. Telephone and telegraphic communication has been restored to most of the larger towns and all of the cities in the storm swept territory.

Leonard, president of the Union Stock Yards Co., sent the following reply yesterday to a telegraphic inquiry from Mrs. Julian Heath, president of the National Housewives' League, as to the cause for the increase in the price of meats throughout the country. "For the period since January 1st., as compared with the same period hf 1912, there has been a total decrease in the receipts at Chicago of 646,600 meat animals of every type, amounting to an aggregate of 200,000,000 pounds.'' Mr. Leonard said that the high prices are due to the shortage and the shortage is due to the wiping out v/i a iai^c amuuiiv ui uic lau^c uuau" try and its division into smaller farms. He said the shortage had been increasing for the past seven years and that it would take a sirailiar period to build up the cattle raising industry so ' that any material reduction in prices would be possible. During the last y ir the decreased supply has amounted to one pound of meat per capita each month, he said. NOT SATISFACTORY. New York.?Tbe National Housewives' League does not accept as satisfactory the reply it received from President Leonard of the Union Stock Yards Co. in Chicago, naming the shortage of cattle as an explanation of high prices. "All the wholesalers and retailers," said Mrs. Julian Heath, president of the league, "declare that even if there wore a great shortage in cattle the retail demand for meat at the present time is so small that the decrease in supply would not raise the prices to their present height." A Cold, La Grippe, Then Pneumonia Is too ofren the fatal sequence. .La Grippe coughs hang on, weaken the system, and lower the vital r^sistence. IS. G. Collins, Postmaster, Barnegat-, N.J. says: "I was troubled witli a severe La Grippe cough which completely exhausted me. Foley's Honey and Tar Compound soon stopped the coughing spells entirely. It can't be beat." H >rmon Drug Co. Two Killed and Eight Hurt.
