4 Bad Taste in the Mouth When you get up In the morning with a coated tongue and a bad taste In the mouth, you may or may not be seri ously ill, but if there is any disease going, your system is lust right to catch it. We know what you think— first you are half persuaded to try Vinol, and then you say to yourself: “ That’s the same story all the medicines tell; I’ve heard it before.” But Vinol is not like other medicines. If it were, we shouldn’t be talking about it in any special way. If you will regulate your bowels with Vinlax and take Vinol to improve your diges tion and assimilation of food, these troubles, with the head ache, “ liver complaint,” neu ralgia, rheumatic pains, and nerve troubles will disappear as by magic. We pay back the money if it doesn't help you. Mail Orders Supplied, Bot^« r , Express Paid. CHEROKEE DRUG CO DKUOGIHTS. DR. R. M. DORSEY, SPECIALIST on diseases of the EYE and EAK, and OPTICIAN.

First Service was Held Wednesday Night. Dr. Broughton Good Humoredly Attacked the Ways of Some Church People—Chorus of fifty or More Persons Chosen. Rt-v. Len G. Broughton, of Atlanta, ana his singer, Prof. Charles B. Till man, arrived in the city Wednesday Great preparations had been made bv our people for their coming and Mr. Broughton and Mr. Tillman were carried to the Commercial Hotel, which will be their home during the meeting, which will continue till the 29th inst. The Star Theatre bad been arranged for the occasion. All our church people of ali denominations had joiucd heartily in the work The first service was held Wednes day nig it, bt ginning at 7:80 p. m. Long before the hour arrived the au ditorium was packed. Dr Brough ton preached a characteristic sermon. It.was full of force, interspersed with pathos and humor. He good-hu moredly attacked the ways of some church people, which he considered improper, and in a fatherly way pointed out the proper course to toem. A chorus of fifty or more persous had been chosen which, under the di rection of Prof. Tillman, furnished hue and appropriate music and which was a strong feature of the impressive services. All the city clergymen are attend* ing and are assisting heartily in the good work. Dr. Broughton preached another of his floe sermons yesterday morning to a large congregation which is be coming more and more attached to him and loader and louder in their praises of him. At four o’clock yesterday after noon—three services in one day ! Dr. Broughton and the brethren that are cooperating certainly mean business —at four o’clock he held a service for Christian workers that was the best service yet held He spoke on’’Boul winning, our obligation and prepara tion.” Fearlessly be atlscked many of the evils that are sapping the strength of the churches today show ing the utter emptiness of some Christian lives. At the close of the sermon great interest was manifested in the work by those present, and many requests for prayer were made. Last night the place of meeting was crowded to its utmost capacity with the ezceptiOD of the gallery. Mr. Broughton spoke on the theme of Power, and his discourse was at tentively listened to by the vast con gregation. He did not consider that the power of a church consisted in its large membership or the wealth of the members, but in the piety aud earnestness of the members. His discourse was punctured with witti cism and at times the congregation was convulsed with laughter. Again he grew pathetic and his congrega tion was moved to tears. Dr. Brongbton possesses a vast amount of personal magnetism. There is not so much of the sensa tional about him as he has been cred ited with Before the meeting was commenced Dr. Broughton took oc casion to correct some erroneous im pressions that bad gotten abroad con cerning his methods, and unhesitat ingly declared that be was here to do giod and agreed that if anyone bad a better method than he that be would exchange methods. The (doging, under the direction of Prof CliHS Tillman, grows betterand better se the choir and congregation become better acquainted with the words and music. Prof. Tillman pos sesses a very sweet tenor voice and understands thoroughly the handling of a large choir. Jumped From the Window of a Sleeper. Wednesday as the midday passen- gt r train going South was passing through Smutsville, a negro village just South of the city, s white man jumped out of the window of a sleeper dressed only in his underclothing. The train stopped and took him on board and carried him on towards Spartanburg. Some of the denizens of Smutsville said he was dead when picked up, some said be was hurt “mighty bad” and others said he bad on mighty fine “under- close.” The man was Frank A. McHugh, a resident of New York, and was on his way to New Orleans for the benefit of bis health. Friends Entertained. Mrs. S. L.
