Weak and Tired.
“ Do you suppose your Vfnol
would do me any good?” said
a woman customer the other
day. “ I just drag round. My
work seems an awful burden.’*
“ I think Vinol will help you,”
said our clerk. “ Our folks at
home use it. We have such
faith in it that we will pay the
money back if it doesn’t help
you.”
She took a bottle of Vinol
home and has since bought
another bottle.
Vinol was sold last year on
the same guarantee. How many
“ refunds ” were there, do you
think ? Less than two per cent.
In other words, Vinol did
successful work in ninety-eight
cases out of 100.
For two great classes, those
who can’t seem to gain strength,
and those who are tired at
nothing, we say: “Try Vinol
on our guarantee.”

Cotton Per Acre.
Tifton. Oa.. Nov. 3.—Early in the
spring Messrs. Clyatt, Timmons. Ful-
wood and others had a discussion as
to their relative abilities as fanners,
and a race was the result.
Saturday Mr. Clyatt made his report,
and the rest threw up the sponge.
Up to Oct. 25. Mr. Clyatt had ginned
and sold from 4 acres 2.565 pounds of
lint cotton, or 641% pounds of lint per
acre.
The cotton is still as green !n the
field as it was in September, and Mr.
Clvatt is sure that if he was not oblig
ed to turn bis stock in the field this
week, he could get nearly another
hale, or 3,000 pounds of lint.
This is a remarkable yield, being
about $51.30 per acre, or $205.20 for
the four acres, besides the seed, which
are equally valuable.

Men, -‘Please Don’t”— .
| Spartanburg Herald.1
Think because a girl treats you
nice, allows you to think well of your
self, that she’d “leave her happy
home for you.” It takes a mao to
be absurd.
Think because a woman isn’t anx
ious to tell her age she’s an old maid.
Reason? My dear creature, you’re too
“bad off” to know.
Tell those amazing stories of your
self, which make women wonder—at
youi inventiveness.
Insist on using slang in a lady’s
presence or on smoking in her parlor.
Girls may be all courtesy, but they
do hate a bore—nothing worse.
Congratulate yourself after calling
on the impression made. You can’t
understand bow a girl can criticise.
Boast of your conquests—pose as a
lady-killer. Credulity isn’t a femi
nine characteristic.
Thir k because the lady smiles when
you tell how you love her—that all’s
well. The girl knows better. My
advice : pocket your romance—trot
on—forget such folly (?)
Part your hair in the middle even
though it be to hide a bald spot—if
men dislike masculine women, what
must not women think of effeminate
men ?
Sneer at women—only Smart
Alecks do that. Men who are worth
while respect and appreciate them.
Smart Alecks don’t count.
But please do continue writing
“Please Don’t” for girls. We cer
tainly find them entertaining.

property in the Cherokee Mutual Fire In

yourself from anxiety as to the effect a loss
of your house would curtail on yourself and
family also.
This is the cheapest insurance known
among men and your money kept at home.
