Shot-Gun Prescrip

GROVER GOSSIP.

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.

The writer had the pleasure of
spending a few hours with the happy

“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.

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

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. Citizen.

UOD SEEDS

ODD CROPS
That’s why you should buy seeds here, as you can
always be sure that you get fresh seeds and of known
variety. 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.
