rt i A PROCLAMATION ► Whereas, the people of our city have been led to pur-1 chase so-called remedies from which they have received no benefit whatever, and having thus wasted so much hard-earned money, it has come to pass that they know not what to believe. Inasmuch as this unsatisfactory state of affairs exists, KNOW, THEREFORE, ALL PERSONS who are in need of such a medicine that we will supply them with VINOLon a POSITIVE GUARANTEE that if it does not succeed in bene'fiting them we will refund the entire amount of money paid us (or it. There is no one medicine that will cure everything, but there are somo^we know to be honest, reliable, and of great curative value. Such is VINOL; it is not a secret medicine, — just peptonate of iron, wine, and all the curative extractives of cod liver oil, combined. We are familiar with ever)- particle of it, and KNOW that it should benefit every one who uses it. f Could any offer be mqre fair than this? You are ill; t we offer you medicine which we believe will help you, and if it does not we will return your money. Is there anyone foolish enough not to accept this offer? You owe it to your family, to your friends, and yourself to try this medicine which we give you our pledge is a genuine . cod liver and iron preparation of great merit. ? We unhesitatingly recommend Vinol as a Body ; Builder and Strength Creator for Feeble Old People, ! Delicate Children, Frail Women, All Run Down Persona, and Those Needing a Good Tonic after the Grippe or any Severe Illness, and for Chronic Coughs, i Colds and Bronchitis. | Do you think we could afford to lend our name to its praises, as we have been doing in the newspapers, if we did not know VINOL to bean honest and unusually l valuable remedy for the ills for which it is prescribed ? .We certainly could not; we therefore ask you, our neigh bors, friends and acquaintances to accept our assurances that this is a genuine offer, and that any and all persons t who need a medicine of this character shou feel a sense of security in accepting it. 4 You will absolutely be under no obligation to us what ever, if after you have tried one bottle of VINOL, and have not received any benefit, you have only to tell us so, and we will return the entire amount of money you paid us for it. c 4 VINOL is an old and valuable remedy improved by modern science — tastes good and agrees with everyone. *JCall and get ^Jjottle to-day.

Thus *\e.ree, instead oi Kansas paying 1.5 8 times as much as Nebraska, Nebraska pays nineteen times as much as Kansas. Let us go further with this investigation, and see what is happening in the no-license State of Kansas.

Lust year South Caro lina had 317 murders, to say nothing of other criminals. At least 258 of these murders were traceable toiiqtlor. One dispen sary county alone had an average of 21 murder trials a year for several years . consecutively, while an adjoining prohibition county had an average of only six murder trials a year for the same length of time. If we were told in eome respects we are worse than the heathen of Japan we would not feel good over it, and would be tempted to resent it as an insult. But think of this, Japan has forty million of people, but Japan ia a prohi bition nation. South Carolina has less than one and one-half million population, and yet while we were having 347 mur ders Japan had less than 300. South Carolinians, st p and think. The liquor dealers of the United States are making great promises t^ be good, and redeem their business from reproach if the; Anti-Saloon League and other temperance organizations will stop their crusade for the extermination of the liquor traffic. But we cannot believe that this change of front is sin cere as long as we judge men by their actions. We want the pec- plo of South Carolina to consider the following. We give here an account of a street demonstration Let Kodol Digest What You Eat Then You Can Eat What You Like. ‘What’s the use of preserv ing the Lord’s Day? “‘What did God ever do for the Liewers and saloc.n-k.eepeis?’ “Dol l, even blasphemous, to be sure! Hut valuable as an unusually candid expression of the real attitude of the liquor trade. As our correspondent Wiiies, ‘About two more such demonstrations will win Now- Jersey for prohibition.’ ” Every South Carolinian lead ing this will naturally ask. Is it t/ossibic for such a thing ever i" happen in our State? We ans wer, these things are possible wherever the sentiment in tavor o of liquor is strong, enough, lad us add one other item to show the difference between tiuth and error. The liquor people of this country declare boldly that “prohibition does not prohibit.” Many others who are honest in what they say declare that they would vote for prohibition, but they are afraid it will net pro hibit. We ask all such to read the follwiug: “The Keutuckey Legislatue, recently iu session, received the following letter irom the jailers of the State: “ ‘The Association of the Jail- ers of the State have caused to be drafted certain acts for their relief, now before the General Assembly for their consideration. These acts are intended ; to re lieve the acute pecuniary condi tions in which the jailers have been placed by the general adop tion of local option laws in the State. “ ‘The office of jailer in coun ties having a population of less than 75,000 is now worthless, the Tees being totally insufficient to compensate the jailer or teed the prise tiers, the compensation of jailers averaging les than $100 per annum. “ ‘The jail doors* in nearly every county in which local op tion prevails are wide open and the jailers have been compelled to engage in other pursuits for You once could cat anything you wanted, and your stomach would digest It. .
