WORLD'S RICHEST BABY
IS LITTLE MISS DUKE. ,
? ' I
Country'* Richest Babies.
James B. Duke's
daughter $100,000,000
VV. K. Vanderbilt's
son 60,000,000
Edward Vinson McClean
50,000,000
Jno. Nicohlas Brown 10,000,000
John Jacob Astor 3,000,000
While high-priced physicians
and nurses hover near in softfooted
attention, a $100,000,000
baby?probably the richest mite
of humanity in all the world ?
lies cooing today in the New
York home of Mr. and Mrs. J.
B. Duke.
It's a girl ard the little one
reached the home of the tobacco
king a fortnight ago. The father
is fifty-seven years old and
claims to be the happiest man in
the country today. The mother,
formerly Mrs. Nanaline Inman,
of Atlanta, is some years younger,
but none the less happy.
The fortune of James B. Duke
is conservatively estimated at
$100,000,000, and it is still grow
ing, for the army of smokers is
increasing. If these figures are
nnnrrtximatelv correct, little Miss
"ft
Duke is heiress to more millions
than the McClean baby, the Vanderbilt
baby or others whose
names stand high in the list of
the country's wealthiest children.
Mr. Duke, with all his wealth,
has desired mcst of all an heir.
He has always been fond of children?even
when they belonged
to other people. His joy knows
no bounds today, now that a longdesired
event nas taken place in
his own household.
No child of royal blood ever
came into the world amid more
comfortable and luxurious surroundings
than the daughter of
the Dukes. The magnificent fifth
avenue mansion was turned into
a private hospital; no expense
was spared in obtaining the best
physicians arid nurses, and the
baby's layette represented the
outlay of a small fortune. The
great wish of a millionaire's
heart was to oe gratified, and no
preparations were overlooked.

Diives Off a Terror.
The chief executioner of death in the ,
winter and spring months is pneumonia.
Its advance agents are colds and grip.
In any attack by one of these malan?
timH .should be lost in taking ,
the best medicine obtainable to drive '
it off. Countless thousands have found
this to be Dr. King's New Discovery, j
"My husband believes it has k*.pt him
from having pneumonia three or four
times," writes Mrs. George W. Place,
Rawsonville, Vt.. "and for coughs,
col is and erou;> we have r.evt r found its
equal." Gua anteed for all bronchial
affections. Price 50 cts. and Si.00.

be the cause of the bank's action.
Its liabilities are given at
$50,000. The capital stock of
the institution is $25,000.

"I want to thank you from the bottom
of my heart," wrote C. B. Rader,

Bitters, in curing me of both a
severe case of stomach trouble and of 1

I was born in Ireland and served my
apprenticeship in the Dyeing of all f
grades of goods in Alexandria, Scotland.
I have been in the United States
81 years, between the North and South,
and I have been doing nothing but Dyeing
and Cleaning since Cleveland's administration,
years ago. I have been
in Fort Mill for seven years. And,
think of it. not even a single complaint
has been heard or said about my work.
I don't make my living like a mosquito
bite. I believe I can take a pinetop. a
bucket of molasses, a bucket of tar,
one gallon of varnish and one bushel of
clay, mixed well together, and working
by moonlight can do better dyeing than
anything that has hit Fort Mill in the
last seven vears. I DYE TO LIVE.

PRESCRIPTION
d
11
For a Long Life. I f
This Is the prescription for a long '
life given by an old gentleman in Con- s
necticut, who is ninety-nine years old
and still well and cheerful, "Live j c
temperately, be slow to anger, don't j
worry, take plenty of exercise In the ]
fresh air, and, above all, keep cheer- (
ful."
Should the system get run down? ,
digestive organs weak?the blood thin '
and sluggish, take Vinol, which is a j
delicious combination of the medicine ?body-building
properties of cods' <
livers, with the useless grease elimi- j
rated and tonic iron added. We regard
Vinol as one of the greatest
body-builders and strength-creators la
the world for aged people. 1
Mrs. Mary Ivey, of Colurahus, Ga., j
says: "If people only knew the good j
Vinol does old people, you wculd oe
unable to supply the demand; It Is
the finest tonic and strength-creator 1
I ever used." <
We wish every feeble old person
In this vicinity would try
Vinol on our agreement to return their i
money if it fails to give satisfaction.
