HOW TO RESIST \ (Chronic Coughs and Colds. Strong, vigorous men and women hardly over catch cold; it's only when the system Is run down and vitality low that colds and coughs get a foot hold. Now Isn't It reasonable that tho Tight way to cur?; a cough is to build up your strength again 7 Mrs. Olivia Parham, of East Dur ham, N. C, says: "I took Vinpl for a chronic cough which had lasted two years, and the cough not only disap peared, but It built up my, strength as well." The reason Vlnol Is so efficacious la auch cases is because it contains In a delicious concentrated form nil tho medicinal curatlvo elements of cod liver oil, with tonic, blood-building Iron added.

C FIRE TACKLES KANSAS JAIL Flames in Kansas Penltentlury Cause Loss of $500,000. liest uf Order Pre served. Lhngsing, Kan., April 12.?Fire that destroyed four large buildings and caused a loss estimated at $500,000 in the Kansas penitentiary today, was Bp road by convicts who scattered burning papora In buildings not in the path of the llames, according to a statement by Piro Chief Michael Haider of Lea ven wort b. His opinion w;is confirmed by some of the prison officials, The fire started when the armature of a motor in the twine plant suddenly burst into flames. The State carries no Insurance on its structures. '?Several prisoners told me of seeing other convicts lighting bunches of pa per in the old building known as the furniture factory," said Chief Battler. Warden J. K, Codding said be bo. lioVod it probable that convicts had fed the llames. Prison officials made every prepara tion for mutiny and Langsing and Leaven worth wore thrown into excite ment, fearing an outbreak; but the convicts preserved the best of order, hundreds of them assisting In t'lKht ing the llames. Their efforts were re sponsible for saving the building OC cuplod by women prisoners and the criminally insane. The women were taken out an.I the insane convicts transferred to the coll house. ThO building was ur.ly slightly damaged. The scene of the greatest excite ment was in the insane ward. 1 T.O feet from the twine plant. The llames sV'incd to throw panic into every in mate. Thoro were fit) insane convicts. Kxclted by the sight of th( llames. the prisoners screamed and w th clenched hands beat on the iron bars of their rooms. The maniacs set up such a commo tion that Warden Codding was forced to move thorn to another part of the ptjison. This removal was accom plished with the greatest difficulty, many of the prisoners having to be dragged out by their guards. A num. her of the patients fought their rescu ers. Six prisoners and one guard were burned slightly. S?ix hundred con victs, who were working in the prison yard when the lire started, were not locked up but called to aid in light inn names. A dozen prisoners in the boiler rooms of the power house stayed at their tasks, keeping up steam for the pumps, The prison's one ancient lire engine was out of commission and the pressure pumps of the water system had to be relied upon.

April 12.?The farm work lias been going right along until yes terday when the workers were stop ped bj a good ratn which was very much needed. The farm hands, both white and black had a tough time try. Ing to plow where the ground was so bard from the continued rains in the winter and spring, also the poor mules and horses, the fanners are very much behind. Some corn has been 'planted but very little fertilizer put in to this date. In HMO your correspondent had planted his bottom corn and planted Iiis Individual crop of cotton by the above date and his hands finished the I'.ttli. We may plant some next week, but that is to he seen. Tin; main is very promising. More corn is going to be p.* an ted this time. We all are getting very much Inter ested in more corn and less cotton. We are out among the sticks, but we are reading more, we are learning more, we are studying more, our In terest as to our future welfare. Will you be surprised to know that some of tin' farmers in this community will not buy a poUnd of meat nor a bushel of corn this year if nothing happens to what they have on hand? What a country we would have if every farm er had enough food stuff to run him year in and year out, these cotton buyers would he coming around every week, asking you what you will take for your cotton. Then we could Im prove our houses an I farms and make the country life one of the happiest lives in the land. The fruit crop is going to lie very short this time, we are sorry t > re poi t hut Homo us nave planted mel on seed already and hope to have plenty of melons as other fruit will hw short. This is an off year in politics, but you would think if you did not know better that we would have an election in August. 1 hear of the different men mentioned for state and other offices. Your correspondent was in another county a lew days back and this Is what a man said who had been in Washington looking after a job: "When I was working for a man who I considered my friend.' Do all you can old boy. if you will, help to return me to Washington. All you will have to do will he to command me.' I com manded him hut there was nothing doing. They seem to he too busy In Washington to give you much aid." You may look for some of this same crowd InNlOH, when they get on the stump. They will appeal to the dear people to send them hack as they have some unfinished work that they would like to finish and aside from that, "I am able to do more work and better work than a new man and for that reason, you ought to send mo hack to congress." Some of this same crowd have said through the press, "We are not going to have an elllclent man turned out to put'in a Democrat." Now let vis give you our version of the matter. These hoys who have been posing as Republicans to hold oillee in South Carolina should get out, and let the Wilson crowd have what right ly belongs to thom. If our represen tatives do their duty, we will have democrats to IUI these places. This Is the third democratic president In fifty years and it may be our last one for years after "Wilson serves his four years. Miss flarrett's school will close In two weeks.
