Shot-Gun Prescrip tions. 1 GROVER GOSSIP. 3) We suppose we are not re vealing any trade secret when we say that many medicines are made up on the principle of the so-called “ shot-gun pre scriptions,” which were form erly somewhat in vogue. 1 The idea of the shot-gun pre scription was to put in a large number of different drugs, each useful for different purposes, In the hope that some of them might hit the case. Vinol, the medicine we sell over our name and guarantee, is not a scattering “shot-gun prescription,” but goes straight to the mark. Ifis the best thing we know for a run-down condition, for a listless feeling, nerve troubles, for lung troubles—in fact, it is a safe, pleasant, reliable tonic and reconstructor. It has cured so many people right here in town we offer money back if it fails to benefit.

Groykk, March 21.—Our friend at Blacksburg says that spring has come again there It has also reached this place with its pretty dayr and its charming beauties. It’s a ime of year which every person should be proud of. You can look out upon nature with all its beauties, and as she comes forth with all her promis- iog prospects for the necessary nour ishments of all the living creatures that God has placed upon this earth. We can also get out and hear the birds as they sing their sweet songs while flitting about through the pleasant breezes of spring. While in the midst of all this, and many other loving features, every heart should feel that while God is so kind to us we should do a great deal more for Him than we have ever done. Owing to the rain last night and this morning farmers will be delayed with their plowing. The farmers have been* making good use of the pretty days of this w-ek. Wheat is looking prosper jus in this community. Peach trees are in fu 1 | l loom and we Jnope that if its nature’s good will they may be loaded with delicious fruit. Messrs. D. I). Dover. J. W. Turney | and Robert Shepard, who have been with the Postal Telegraph Go., erect ing lines, have returned home, to be gin their farm work. The writer had the pleasure of spending a few hours with the happy throng that gathered at Corinth last Saturday at the picnic. “Striker.” Services Sunday. Rev. J. M. Steadman’s sermon last Sunday morning on the Press, was heard by a large and anpreciative congregation. A synopsis would be an injustice to the preacher and occa sion. We hope to publish it in our Friday’s issue. Miss Williams’ solo, a “Sinner’s Prayer,” was up to her usual high musi-cal standard, and worthy of the occasion. There were no services at night on account of the rain. The sermon on meetings, the pastor being absent and Rev Mr. McManaway having failed to arrive. A MumIchI Ht Ktt» June. Etta Jane, March 19:—The Etta Jane string band last night gave a musical, in honor of Mr. T. J. Hughes, Sr. No one can enjoy music better than this veteran of the war— and none like national airs beteer than he. He says it makes the blood in his veins run coldwheo the familiar strains of “Dixie” burst on his ear, and he thinks of Mannassasas it was covered in the blood of noble heroes, when “Yankee Doodle” claims the listening ear, and he grows again composed when “Home Sweet Home” takes his mind back to his home and native land Mr. William Westmoreland will soon have Salem church painted, and it will be a very neat job when it’s completed. Wheat looks exceedingly well for this time of year. Sambo Uont CountenHuce the DUtllh-ry. Under a recent law of North Caro lina distillers will not be allowed to | make whiskey in Cleveland county i after the first of July. On that ac- ; count we learn that an attempt is ' being made to move a Cleveland . county distillery to this county. We implore Cherokee people not to give this death dealing attempt any coun tenance. W’e beg them to put their feet-on the neck of this movement in its incipiency and strangle it. Arise ye women of Cherokee. Think of the want, disgrace and crime that the $00,000 sp-mt annually in Cherokee county for whiskey has wrought, is producing today, and swear by Him that liveth that another life and soul- destroying institution shall not get a foot hold in Cherokee county to de bauch your husbands and sous and thus make the lives of your daughters unhappy.

All our seeds were grown last year, from seeds whose variety had been proved, and under the most favorable conditions for each kind. They had the precise attention to details in gathering, etc., which only the practical seed grower knows how to give. All this should make them worth more to you than seeds picked up here, there and anywhere, but we sell them as low as you pay for the inferior kinds. Cherokee Drug Co.
