Monument to Captain Wirz. The Old South had its inning at Andersonville, Ga., on Wednesday, when the Daughters of the Confed eracy unveiled a monument to Cap tain “Henry Wirz, the Swiss who was hanged for murder and cruelty in his brutal treatment of the Union soldiers confined in Andersonville prison. There is no longer anything but sympathy in the North for the sentiment which prompt memorials of the worthy Confederate heroes and leaders. But a monument to Wirz is deplorable. The man’s guilt was proved be yond peradventure. His rule in An dersonville is a memory not to be perpetuated, but forgotten as far as history will allow it to be forgotten. Of late attempts have been made to whitewash Wirz, but the evidence is overwhelming that he practiced hid eous cruelties against the unfortu nate men who were pla.ed in his power by the misfortunes of war. Thejudgment of Wirz’s contem poraries cannot be overcome now by the specious plea that he was not re- sponsibe for the dreadful conditions that prevailed within the Anderson- yille comr>ow;d, Wither as to the ab- ' sence of food or the rovolting sani tary conditions. Even to-day there are enough men living to prove by their personal testimony that their personal testimony that their suffer ings were aggravated by the absence of humanitynn their malevolent jail er.-—Philadelphia Press. SENTIMENT GONE WRONG. Many hundreds of the union men who were prisoners of war at An dersonville will be made indignant by the attempt in Georgia to fasten a martyr’s halo to the memory of Major Henay Werz. They will be sharply reminded of those needless cruelties from the effects of which many of them will not cease to suffer until they die. They will recall Wirz’s denial of the simplest of re quests, easier for him to grant, it seemed, than to refuse. They will think of those comrades shot down while reaching for water less reek ing of evil a half foot beyond the dead line. Yet Andersonville is forty-five years ago. The records of Wirz are plain. The court-martial proceed ings are within the reach of all who care to read. No monuments can change the history of the wardenship of Andersonville one syllable. No speeches in praise of him, no tears of hysterical women can alter cue bit of it. Tears and words and marble have never builded a man’s fame or reversed the chronicle of a country. Wirz will stay the Wirz as the soldiers knew him, not as the women of a later generation describe him. The men who were pris >ners will but waste their time in filing pro tests and adopting resolutions in condemnation. Best should it be that they smile and forget it as they might when children do a foolish thing.—Toledo Blade. E ditor R ecord : I am handing you two protests, from Northern Republican papers. The sentiments therein contained are those of brave men who pity, not censure, I am indeed glad that the greater part of the work done in erecting this mon ument had its inception in Georgia. It’s nothing to be proud of, the erec ting of this monument to the mem ory of a brutal keeper of a Confed erate prison. The mantle of char ity should if possible, be cast over his acts of inhumanity, and his name and record be forgotten, as an un pleasant incident of a terrible war. There were enough brave heroes on th e Confederate side whose names and brave deeds are almost forgot, to Waste time and money in erecting monuments to a cruel monster whose very name name uttered in the pres ence of the brave Federals who suf fered because of his cruel treatment, stirs resentment and pity for us. The Ccnfederacy was unable to properly provide the necessary com fo rts fo r these unfortunate prison ers, but humane warfare certainly required, yes demanded better treat ment of prisoners than would be ex pected of brutal savages or uncivi lized Indians. Weshouldfoegetand if possible forgive every act of seem- i ig inhumanity of our foes in the latew ar between the < states, and should not even attempt to stir up th e unpleasant memories of a ter rible and fratricidal war by honor ing the memory of Henry Wirz. Let’s place monuments, wreaths and flowers on the graves and battle fields that will inspire brave and noble men in the future, but let’s quit such folly as awakens the sm ould jring embers of a war that nearly wrecked the greatest Repub lic of th e ages, turn our faces upon *»all unpleasant memories of the past, and move onward and upward to a glorious fruition of the fondest hopes that inspired our brave and noble ancestors* Let's have no more Wirz monuments, but smiles for the liv ing, and tears and garlands for the brave and noble dead. E. H. Morris , Mocksville, N. C., May 24, ’09. Our Country—Supreme! Recently, iu city of Utica, X. Y., Vice Presesident Shermau deliver ed an address eulogizing our coun try’s moral aud industrial great ness. Among other things, he said: “ We have but 5 per cent of the population of the earth. Onr na tion possesses bnt 7 percent of the area of the earth, aud yet, indus trially, we about equal oue-half of the balance of mankind. “ We have twice as much life in surance as the rest of the world aud oue half as much rnouey on de posit in our saviugs bauks as all the rest of the world.” Onr expenditure for eduction is two thirds as much as is spent by all the rest of the world. One-third of all the revenue collected by gov ernments is ours, while our debt is but one-thiretiath of the debt ol' the world. We have enrolled iu our schools 20,000,000 students. 17,000.000 be- iug in our public schools aloue, for which we pay annually $200,000,- 000, which is more than is spent for educational purposes by the five greatest countries of Europe, including Great Brilaiu. The couu- try is not retrograding. Ambition as well as patriotism is indigenous to our soil. “ Ambition is inspired by op portunity. Ambition and oppor tunity have; inspired and develop ed genius. Genius has produced invention. Iuventiin has enlarg ed opportunity and increased by bounds A'merican production, American wealth aud American power.” The Gentleman. To be a gentleman is a thing within the reach of all men. We would not decry good birth and breeding; we would not decry education aud the many advantages that follow its possession; we would not decry the advantages that travel aud a general knowledge of the world and men of affairs gives to the holder thereof—for all these things help to make of the rough product the finished, the polished mau. B at a man may be a gentIeinau and have uoue of these things. One of earth’s gentlest spirits, Abraham Liucjln, had received but little of the social polish and but little book knowledge and never •‘traveled,’' as we understand that word today. Yet he was oue of the truest gentlemen that ever trod the earth—sometimes we think he was inspired of God. Always he was a man—a.man in the highest aud noblesv aud broad est sense. To be a gentleman one must prove himself worthy of the claim, or title, by acting in every part the highest type of man. Dear old Bobbie Burns told it all: ‘‘The gold is but the. Guinea’s stamp; a man's a man for all that.” Verily wealth, position, place station or power can do but little if all beueath is but the caracature of the thiug fashioned in His own image. Then what? Poor, even despised aud rejected of men, yet if he but possess the soul of manhood; if he is geufeie aud kind aud loviug aud true,— Why, then, he may lay claim to the simple title of “gentleman.” —The Watchman. Lecture by Chinaman. W itty sarcasm mingled with kindly comment ou American ways marked a lecture—the first of its kind, by a young Chinese student at the University of Pennsylvania. The speaker, Tai Chi Francis Quo, is a Freshmau iu the Wharton School, sent by his Government, aud thought but 19 years old hand led his subject, “ America and China,” aud his English like a veteran, “ Your Western traditions and manners seemed ridiculous to ine wheu I came to America, just as t hose of my con u try appear to y ou, ’ ’ he said. “ But I did not say ‘that is nonsense! That is needless! you should not do that.’ “ Chinese students are sent to America because it is the mast democratic, the most advanced, the most just nation in the world; bnt I sometimes wonder if it is wheu I think of the Chinese exclu sion act. Ou the other hand Ameri ca deserves credit for its generous return of the Boxer indemnity, which the Chinese Government will use iu the education of Chinese students iu America. “ Chiua is quick to copy the greatness of America, but not to become ‘Americanized,’ for Ameri ca has its vices. Many profess Christianity who do not practice it. “ Confucianism.” be declared, “is sufficient for the Chinese peo ple, aud while the charity and edu cational work of American mission aries are appreciated, their religion is not sufficiently needed as a moral force to ever become established in China.” He also pleaded for a study by American scholars of Chinese liter ature. “ Remember,” he said, “ that China had libraries when her West ern sisters dwelt in caves ” Trouble Makers-Ousted.

You say that you cauuot believe the miracle of the resurrection. Let me< tell yon the story of a greater miracle than that. It is the story of a poor peasant, a member of a de spised aud subject race, himself despisen, the place of his birth de spised by his owu countryman. In a little while he dies a felon’s death and all those above him for got he ever lived. Yet somehow his words lived on. “Philosophy with all iis wisdom, priestcraft with all its terrors, kings wielding the iron power of all the world, but over armies, over dying dynasties and crumbi- iug thrones, rivers of blood aud seas of fire, that power swept ou and on until it has made conquest of the earth, until every king on every throne bows down iu adora-. tiou to the dead peasant of Galilee aud the very instrument of his felon’s death has become a symbol of salvation to all mankind.

OUR BUYER HAS PURCHASED - \ Boy’s Body in Cotton Bale. Concord Times. Kcws from Liverpool that the body of a boy baby was found in a bale of Texas-grown cotton un earths the mysterious disappear ance of a 23-months-old son of Geo. HaiLmau, a farmer of Gillespie connty. Texas, about six months ago. It is believed the bo-ly is that if the Haitmau child and that he was killed in a gin and the frail body crushed into a bale of cotton which was exported and found its way to the Liverpool cotton mills. 'Che description answers that of the child, which, it was feared, had met death by drowning in a river. Late in November the father car ried a wagon load of cotton to a gin in a small town in Gillespie county, and the baby sr.n aceom =panied him. The child was miss ed, but the father thought some of his frieuds had the boy iu charge. The search was kept up for many weeks and a reward offered, but no trace of the body was found. The body was shipped to America. * "V 't i v y|AA i f I - Cl J * * + ♦ ♦ * + )* * , S ANW r V* / \>NES * * I pNY COLOR. f P& fPerfgns and Prices.

Many loyal and abiding De mocrats were profoundly impressed with the liberality of spirit of the nation's Chief Executive. They like his principles and his attitude t» ward the South, the eminent inde pendence in ideas which he display ed, the plain, unadorned, and yet be coming dignity evidenced in speech and conduct, the great good cheer and beaming countenance which marks his every move, and the whole-hearted, whole-souled disposi tion of the President.

RUNNING DOWN YOUR TOWN, One of the most vigorous critics of the faults of American city govern ment was recently taken sharply to task because in a series of lectures through the country he severely ar raigned his home city. The idea of his critic seemed to be that there is something disloyal in ‘running down’ the place where one lives. Itisth e negative side of the American habit of inordinate praise of “my state” and “my city.” Local pride, which is at the bot tom of this sentiment, is a very use ful and commendable motive; it in spires people to make their home state and their home city worthy of their pride. But carried to extremes, or given the wrong direction, it be- cames a kind of uncritical blindness, and may become hypocrisy. The honest critic of government or of any social institution has only one duty, and that is to tell the truth. If one is talking about street cleaning, and knows that the streets “at home” are badly neglected, it is a silly and dangerous perversion of patriotism to try to conceal the fact. The publicist, the lecturer or the editor is of service to his community when he attacks the”<evils about him without fear or favor, quite unde^ terred by the consideration that peo- News From Calahaln.

Much sickness is of nervous origin. It’s the nerves that make the heart force the blood through the veins, the lungs take in oxygen, the stomach di gest food, the liver secrete bile and the kidneys filter the blood. If any of these organs are weak, it is the fault of the nerves through .which they get their strength. Dr, Milesi Nervine is a specific for the nerves. It soothes the irritation and assists in the generation of nerve force. Therefore you can hardly miss it if you take Dr. Miles’ Nervine when sick. Get a bottle from your druggist.

Man has no wiugs and yet he cun soar above the clouds, he is not swift of foot, and yet he can ontspced the fleetest lionnd or horse; he has but feeble weapons in his organization and yet he can slay or master all the gieat beasts; his eye is not so sharp as that ot the eagle or vnltare, and yet he can see into the fartherest depth of sideral space; be has only very Ieeble occuk'L powers of communi cation with his fellows, and yet he can talk around the world and send his \ o‘ee across mountains and deserts; his hands are weak things besides a lion’s paw or an elephant’s trunk, and yet he can move and stay rivers and set bounds to the widest seas. TTis dog can out smell him and out run him and out bite him, and yet his dog looks up to him as to a god. He has erring reason in place of unerring instinct, and yet he has changed the face of the planet.

It was a fortunate impulse which wilt a whole purebful of suceor- scekers into the home of one hos pitable lady on South Tryou street. Xot only did she invite them all in and make them as comfortable as possible, but she raided the fam ily larder and served sandwiches and oilier refreshments to every single one, none of whom she had ever seen or probably ever would see again. That was a sample of Southern hospitality for yon. She was a friend in time of need and lieuee a friend indeed.

THE CURSE OF THE SOUTH. What is the matter with the South? According to Government report of 1908. ‘’The Secret is out at Last:”—The Southerner, contrary to cur rent opinion is not Lazy, Shiftless, Indifferent, or Careless. “He is Sick.” The South is afflicted with and harbors that most dreaded treacherous and destructive of all diseases. Anemia, Pernicious Anemia. The average Southerner is a sufferer of this Health destroying Parasite which destroys r.he red bloocl cells producing an impoverished condition of the Blood: ,vhich is characterized by extreme Pallor, General Debility, Weakness, Loss of Vigor—Lack of Ambition, and general undermining of Vitality. The Climate and Atmospheric conditions destroy the Vitality. Let him get over it, get rid of it, get well, and he is as good physically as the best America can boast.. If there is healt h of the slightest degree in your sys tem, Wake it up, call it forth. Pull yourself together, man, woman or i-hilrl; all can and should be well. To neglect yourself is to reflect upon the wisdom of your Maker. Nature intends all Humanity to enjoy a full measure of Health and Vigor. If you do not, the fault is your own, for you are yourself to blame for it. Wonders have been accomplished for the People of Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi.

Tf the North Carolina Republi cans develop any great enthusiasm js over Mr. Taft’s visit, the fact has making a serious mistake in thus ; heeu carefully concealed. openly scorning his own party and making a direct bid lor Democratic recruits in the South. The only hope for the Repnbliran party to make any practical headway in this section is by an exhibition of inherent worth. It must show . that it has some stock from which net,‘2 nd health }7 growth may come. It will briug 'y enough irnit if it is to be ta t . merely as dead stumpage upon which to graft a paiasite organization. If there is any good material at all iu the Re publican party in the South Mr. Taft should be able to make it sprout and flourish and seed. It would seem that iu North Caro lina at least there might have been found one Republican tit to hold the office of Federal judge. If there is not such an one in that State the party must indeed be iu a sorry condition in the South and little hope can be held by the Presi dent of building up a virile Re publican organization. He will. KiiiTOit Record: AU the big Republican guns who care to take an offhand shoot at President Taft for appointing a Democrat to the Eastern Judgeship, have done so, and those who are afraid to come out in the open and express their aandid views are in the bushes. I have UO ave to grind, have no of fice nor am I expecting any, and if T were, I would not be afraid to express my candid views on a sub ject I regard as of vital import ance to the Republican party. I am not. going to criticise the Presi dent too much, for I am not on the inside and do not know what hap pened to finally influence the Pres ident to do that which I am sure was much against the grain, but the President caught hold of the calf’s tail when he made that speech at Greeusboro a Iewr years ago, and one must presume that he got to a place that it was imposs ible tor him to turn loose with safety. However that may be, for of course, always be able to find !it’s mere conjecture on my part, I Democratstotakethehigheroffices will have to give up solving the under his dispensation, but he can hardly hope for open accessions to his own party if he is to follow' de finitely the precedent set in the appointment of Judge Connor to the Federal beuch iu eastern Norlh Carolina. On the whole we are afraid that appointment will have a pernieious political effect on both problem, and leave it to the WISE MEN OF THE EAST, who have learned their political tricks under the shadow of Senator Simmons, Josephus Daniels, JudgeClarkand ex Governor Ayeock, of the 1900 Red Shirt campaign; possibly they can throw some light on the inex tricable position in which the Re conditions which have forced the .

E. H. M orris. Mocksville, N. C., June 8, ’09. Statesville Air Line Railroad. Iredell County Mascot. 1st. A large and enthusiastic meeting of the stockholders and friends of the Statesville Air Line R. R. Co., was held in rooms of the Commer cial Club Friday to devise some plan by which the building of the road may become an assured fact. Quite a number of prominent business men and citizens of Mt. Airy, Dobson, Yadkinvilleand from the country surrounding these towns and from North Iredell were present and from the determination and enthusiasm shown in the meeting these folks are going to have a railroad. The meeting was presided over by W. D. Turner, and a number of en thusiastic speeches were made. As Gov. Turner expressed it the object of the meeting was to get the States ville Air Line Railway out of the air and place it on the ground. While the route of the new road has not been agreed upon in every particular, it is practically settled that it will extend through North Iredell as per the recent survey and then via Yadkinville, Booneville, Dobson and then to Mt. Airy. It is understood that the line will ulti mately be extended and connected with the South and Western, at Rad ford, Va., and also connect with oth er trunk lines and penetrate the coal fields of West Virginia. A determined effort is being made to organize a construction company to begin work on the road. Sub scription papers were circulated to day for that purpose and several thousand dollars were subscribed mostly by Statesville citizens. It is estimated that if $40,000 can be se cured in subscriptions the company can be organized and upon payment of 20 per cent, of this amount work' will begin upon the road. Itis esti mated that $6,000 per mile must be secured by townships in bonds, etc., before a construction company will undertake the work. THE EMPIRE GIRL Charlotte Observer. Oh, where is the girl of the shapely bust Or^the girl of the curving charms? Oh, where are the shapes of a twelve month back? ! AU now take the shape of the empty sack Or the trunks of the tapering palms. The girl that we loved—and the girl we kissed— Was a vision, as all we know: She’d hips and a bust, and a curving waist — Just once in a while, perhaps, too much laced. But always a lovely show. But now, woe is me, all the curves have gone And there’s nothing but straight lines left: A keyhole is just such a shape, I ween; With waist right up under her arm pits seen— And our senses are clean bereft. In starting to hug her, we don’t know where Is the place for our trembling arm: We’re likely as not to score a miss And meet with a frost in the place of bliss From the girl of the straigh-waist c-harm. But, spite of it all, she is still our queen, With her tresses of black or brown Hid under a tent-like peach crate hat, Enough to make Solomon murmur “Scat” And “Away with that Empire gown.” This thing cannot last to the end of time And I hope that we’ll live to see The beautiful shapes that we used to know— The smooth-flowing curves that at tracted so— And in this, I know, all agree.

North Carolina by Presideut Taft This conclusion is founded upon the geneial proposition that the appointment is a “ conspicuous in justice” to a State which gave the Presideut over 45 per cent.' of its rote. “ Well meant, but a sad error” is exceedingly good.

President Taft has appointed a iilent may regard Senator Simmons a proper adviser and counsellor in I such matters, but “ Brer Rabbit” will continue to keep his eyes on “ Brer Fox.” We are sure that there are reasons back of this ap pointment not visible to the rank and file of our party, and we hope the President will not commit an other such grievous sin against his party against his party again. There is one thing I have net seen a word said about. President Taft appointed two Democrats to his cabiiiet. One of these is U. S. Attorney-General.

Ohl Brother Stroud, I would have gathered you under my arm as a hen gathereth her brood under her wing and ye would not.”- Not even in his palmiest days did Shakespeare ever utter such. grand and inspiring words as the above. No private secretary with a limited education could have composed such a masterful article in the English language, and we feel constrained to believe that Editor Sell himself got busy and with the help of a bottle *jf his famous hair oil. succeeded in bringing forth that astounding ar ticle.

Green left Mocksville about 5:30. heading in a north-westerly direction. We no ticed on the road many blackberries and cherries. The finest field cf wheat we saw belonged to B. R. Steelman, and contained about 20 acres. We saw many good fields of wheat and oats between Holman’s and Cana. Com is not looking so well. Our friends R. H. Neely and N. A. Stonestreet have nice sweet potato patches, and Neely also has a watermellon patch which we have spotted. Things at Cana are mov ing along nicely. They have two good stores, a flour mill and a good school. Flourwasselling there at $3.60,40 cents cheaper than in this city. Canahasmany good people, and no more industrious folks to be found anywhere. Our old friend, J. M. Bailey, the postmaster, was bus ily engaged getting the grass out of his corn. Leaving Cana, we passed many good farms and some bad ones. That is a great oats and wheat sec tion. Messrs. Swing and Miller have some fine fields of grain, and the leveliest and finest lands that we saw on our journey. The people in that section will eat biscuits the whole year ’round* Tliecorn looks fairly good, but the cotton crop is no t so good. Ttierewillliea large crop of apples, peaches and plums. Pino was the next station. There we found .a general store, run by Mr. West, who, by the way, owns a line farm and knows how to plow as well as sell goods, Pino has a Bap-- tist church which fe a credit to the people of that section. It is a bet ter church building than the one in this city. Leaving Pino, we found many tobacco fields. The to d is well adapted to tobacco and corn. The farmers in that section do not raise much wheat. They haul the;;- tobacco to Winston. The farm hous es are generally large, well built and nicely painted, which goes to show that the people up there are pros perous and getting along well in the world. The next stop we made was at Wyo, which is located just across the line in Yadkin county. There are a number of nice residences, one or two stores and a church at this little village, which is the home . of the Dixons, the Willyards and the Whites, all of whom are good, sub stantial farmers, nearly all of whom takr The Record. After seeing the home and farm of J, S. Willyard, we could understand why he never lets his subscription expire. This was our first trip through that section, but we hope it won’t be our last, for we have many friends in that locality. FromW yowefacedabout and headed for the Dixon gold mine. That region looks too poor to sprout much gold. After driving for some time through woods, hills, hollows and hog pastures, we found the mine or rather the buildings. N otasoul was in sight, the mighty engine and ore crusher was silent as the grave, we neither saw nor smelled a grain of gold, and desolation reigned su preme. We silently pulled ourselves together, smote the nag we were driving, folded our note book, and like the ancient Arab, silently stole away. The mine had been running I up to within a few days before our visit, but we couldn’t find out when they would start up, or if the mine was proving a success. Some say it is, while others say not. The own ers have spent several thousand dol lars on buildings, machinery, etc. After leaving the mine, we helped o p - friend,Green find one of his big farm ^wm ch is located this side of the mine. It took us two hours to find that 237 acre farm, for we had never been there before and friend Geeen, who built a house on it last year, had actually forgotten where it was located and how to get to it.

At 3:30 p. m. we arrived in Mocksville, and found that the court house officials had been worry ing over our absence, not' knowing which side of the building to begin laying brick on. 20 Years WithHeartTrouble “Dr. Aliles’ H eart Remedy has cured ine of heart disease of over 20 years’ standing. I was so bad that I could not do my work, and could scarcely draw a full breath without fainting or smothering. The doctor told me he could do no more for me; then I commenced taking the H eart Remedy. I shall never forget that night. I slept better than I had before in months. I kept right on getting better, un til I was perfectly well.” MRS. LAURA RUSSELL, Logan, Iowa. W hen the heart action is weak, it fails to pump the blood through the lungs with sufficient rapidity. Then the lungs do not absorb the proper amount of oxygen, although they may be taking in a normal amount of air. The result is shortness of breath, smothering spells, diffi cult breathing, oppressed feeling in chest. Dr. Miles’ H eart Rem edy strengthens the heart nerves and muscles, and in this way increases the circulation. Get a bottle from your drug gist.

Washington Herald. Verily, verily, ray daughter, now is the appointed hour for the an nual matrimonial vacation. Then, I charge thee, cut thy hus band's leash and remove the muz *le! Let down the bars and leave him to seek his own divesions, whether they be blonds or brunettes; like wise to get his own breakfasts and find his own collar buttons. Yea, pack up tby lingerie frocks and try to took sad when thou say- est farewell at the station! For a chauge of air and a change of diet, they are a necessity; but a change of companionship and a new heart-interest are better than a spring tonic! Behold, matrimony should be a privilege, not a prison; and a saiut would tire of heaven if he felt that he conld never escape therefrom! Yea, even eating or loving, which must be kept up from day unto day, becometh a duty—which is not a pleasure. Yet, peradventure, mingle a lit tie sense with thy sentiment, and go not too far away, neither stay too long; for a little distauce length a wife enchantment, but too much distance may lead to another ew cbantment—and the woods are full ot love pirates and flirts in stenO' grapher’s clothing. Lo! during eleven months of ‘•'close communion” a husband’s repartee becometh frazzled and his devotion frayed at the edges. Bnt a little total abstinence from tby society shall cure him of that tired felling, and shall make him to long for thee as be longeth for an old pipe when he hath sworn off smoking; and a few breakfasts consisting of cocktails and warmed- over coffee in soiled cups shall make him yearn for thee as one yearneth for home cooking atter many weeks of lobster palaces and bohemian table d(hote. Behold, what maketh a man ap preciate an old shoe like unto try ing a new one? Verily, verily, two married peo ple are like two cats which might Iind one another good company were they not always tethered unto the same string. Yea, wives are like unto old books, which become dearer but less interesting every day. Yet, as I have before said unto thee an ounce of summer vacation is the prevention, which is worth a pound of cure in the divorce court-. Selah! -As I am traveling Trouble Makers Ousted.

Mr. Editor: in Catawba county, in the interest of the Farmers’ Union, perhaps a few lines from me will be of some interest to your readers. I find the people up here to be very kind and hospitable, but very conservative and a little slow to take hold of the Farmers’ Union. However, there are now about six teen locals in the county and I am sure that when the good people of this county thoroughly understand the principles and purposes of the Union, they will rapidly enlist in the cause and make Catawba one of the banner counties in the State. There are quite a number of towns and villages i.n the county, Hickory being the largest. In Hickory there are two cotton fac tories and several furniture facto ries and shops. It is one of the livest, busiest towns that I have ever visited. The city is, however, very much scattered and consists of several different corporations, numbering in all about 7,000 in habitants and containing eleven churches for white alone. Cotton is not grown very exten sively here, but there is great diversification of crops. W heat and sweet potatoes are grown quite extensively. In some sections the people are very much interested in dairying. Mr. IR. L. Shuford has one of the finest dairy farms in the State. Yonr correspondent has seen quite a number of interesting things which he might relate, but time and space forbid. However, we will relate one very remarkable event which came under our per sonal observation yesterday. Miss Sadie Maynard, daughter of Mr. .1. M. Maynard, living in West Hickory, has been ill for quite a while and complained that there was something alive in her stom ach, Herhome physician.-, after treating her for quite awhile, pro nounced her condition incurable except by surgical operation. A days ago Mr. Mayuard sent for Dr. J. J H. Gassaway, of Lenoir, who learned his methods of curing dis eases principally from the Indians, and after giving her some of the I strongest germicides known for a day or two, she vomited up a live substauce resembling a small water lizard about three inches long, but having no legs or eyes and but little mouth. She also vomited another substance of the same kind but smaller. She is; now resting easier and the doctor thinks there is some hope of her recovery. Your correspondent saw the substances about ten hours after they were vomited and had been preserved in alcohol. The doctor declares that they were alive and lived for about five minutes. He says that he has never seen anything like it before and does not” thoroughly un derstand it, but thinks that the creature is something of a germ nature taken in drinking water. —T. J. H .

According to Government report of 1908. “The Secret is out at Last:”—The Southerner, contrary to cur rent opinion is not Lazy, Shiftless, Indifferent, or Careless. “He is Sick.” The South is afflicted with and harbors that most dreaded treacherous and destructive of all diseases, Anemia, Pernicious Anemia. The average Southerner is a sufferer of this Health destroying Parasite which destroys the red blood cells producing an impoverished condition of the Blood; which is characterized by extreme Pallor, General Debility, Weakness, Loss of Vigor—Lack of Ambition, and general undermining of Vitality. The Climate and Atmospheric conditions destroy the Vitality. Let him get over it, get rid of it, get well, and he is as good physically as the best America can boast. If there is health of the slightest degree in your sys tem. Wake it up, call it forth. Pull yourself together, man, woman or child; all can and should be well. Toneglectyourselfis to reflect upon the wisdom of your Maker. Nature intends all Humanity to enjoy a full measure of Health and Vigor. If you do not, the fault is your own, for you are yourself to blame for it. Wonders have been accomplished for the People of Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi.

No. 49. We Cannot Please All. Some of oar Republican friends have threatened to stop patrouiz ing this paper, because it has m>l jumped upon President Taft aud abused aud vilified him for ap pointing Judge Connoi. a Demo crat to the eastern Judgeship. Kow to all such we want to say. once and for all, we have not con doned the President for making this appointment, neither have we hurled vile epithets at him. Per sonally aud politically we would have inucli preferred the appoint ment of a Republican, but the Presidenthad this appointment, as he has all others at his disposal, aud he has seen fit to do otherwise. Nothing we could do or say would in any way change the matter, and the least said the easiest mended. If some of the things already said had been left unsaid, the better it would be in the tntnre. The appointment of one Demo crat to an office in North Carolina will not ruin the country, or the Republican party. The saying so by the wise acres to the contrary notwithstanding. But what we started out to say was this, this pa per is owned and run by the Re publicans of Alamance county, and ,is as loyal, as it will ever be, to the Bepublican Satioual administra tion, sipd to the Republican organi zation in Xorth Caroliua aud Ala mance county. Therefore, those who desire to withdraw their sup port because they cannot air their whims through the columns of this paper, or because the paper does not represent their views, are at perfect liberty to do so. We will maintain our loyalty and independ ence, though we starve, when the receipts will no longer maintain it, we will shut up shop aud talte Io the woods, but surrender, never. —State Dispatch.

Be meek, my daughter, and con sider thine inferiority; for it is giv en unto thee to know but one or two things. But a man knoweth all things, and there is nothing under the sun which he canuot tel! thee how it. should be done! Lo! he can explain unto thee the Rockefeller system for making mil lions—even while thou darnest thy last year’s coat and wonderest how the rent is going to be paid and where thou shall get a new corset. Behold how patiently he describ- eth unto thee the methads of Sher lock Holmes and criticiseth the Se cret Sei vice; yet, peradventure, thou hast jnsi found the pipe tor which he hath searched all day, in the lower left-hand corner of the drawer where he put it. He nnderstandeth the workings of the wireless telegraph and can tell thee just how an airship should be built, yet shall he work four hours over a fractious lock which thou conldst have picked in live minutes with one hand aud a hair pin. Behold, he urgeth upon thee the necessity for exercise with the broom and the dustpan; yet how willingly he payeth the hised man to beat the rugs and take down the parlor curtains. Go to! The way in which thou drivest a horse exciteth his mirth, for thou boldest the reins as tho’ they were pink baby ribbons. Yet observe with what skill he steer- eth an automobile, passing through great crowds and killing but few, That is all that man had to do or grazing street cars, and doing ever had to do with wearing trous ers. Women forced him into them in the first place, and now he is afraid to wear anything else for fear of making a sensation,—Provi dence Journal. SomeRip-Saw Rippers.

Well, Don’t Read This. It is said that of all classes of business, tijp doctor and the news paper man is looked upon by the public to be the easiest. Iu other words some people seem to think that newspapers and doctors are public benefactors and that they do not need mouey with which to live. This is a great mistake; pork and beans are sold no cheaper to the doctors and editors than to other people. It is to be hoped that a change of sentiment may take place in this line, and that the public will take a more sensi ble view of this matter, and see that the aforesaid gertlemen re ceive their dues.—Tuscumbia Ala bamian.

For if a post refuseth to get. out of his way he pusheth it out—and payeth the damages afterward. Yet he inarveleth how thou eanst go into silly matinees and spend thy substance upon Maud Adams aud Ethel Barrymore; yet mark how he raveth at the box-office when he cannot get spats for an in tellectual show like unto “Salome” or “ The Parisian Widows.” Lo! he scorneth a postscript and laugheth aloud when thou addest four pages of P. S, to one page of letter; yet he calmly useth the long distance telephone and spendeth five dollars to 9ay what he hath forgotten to put in a letter. Then be meek, my daughter, for humanity and the blush that will uot come off become thee. Yea, thou art a childish little thing, full of foolish ways and fleeting fancies. But a man is always consistent; and whichever way he doeth a thing that is the right way! Selali! Pretended patriotism is the stock in trade of rogues. Trouble Makers Ousted.

These near-beer saloons are springing up all over the country, the beer they sell containing only a ! small proportion of alcohol and I coming within the prohibition act, I But is this the only kind they sell’ Here’s where there is a cat iu the bag. It is said, with how much truth we do not know, that the sa loon man is wise; he knows whom he can trust and when a man walks in that is all right and calls for near-beer he gets the genuine stuff. It is also said that no living man can buy a bottle to be taken away; he iunst drink it on the premises. This is to prevent an analysis of the contents. The near-been, how ever, is sold any old way. But don’t lay it all on the seller. The otheir day a stranger walked into one of these places and called for near beer. The man poured out a bottle into a glass. The man then took something that looked like a large fountain pen from his vest and sprinkled a few drops of something iu ■ the glass of beer. VVith a spoon he stirred it up well then drank it. The saloon man was from. Missouri and asked what he was doing. It was pure alcohol and a few drops poured into tho near product made a fine glass of beer.

Re WE WILL ON Saturday, June 19th, at 1:30 p. m., sell at nOCKSVILLE, N. C., 50 Choice Building Lots at Public Action to the highest bidder. This property, which is only a stone's throw from the new $40,000 Modern Court House which is being erected here, has been consigned to us to sell for the highest and last dollar by Mr. Sanford & Sons, and that is the way it will positively be sold, as we have an Iron Bound Contract to that ef fect. It is unnecessary for us to say anything in regard to Mocksville as a business town, as every one in Da vie county and surrounding country knows it is one of the coming towns of the State. The new $40,000 court house which is going up, and a large cotton mill which will be erected here in the near future, is bound to in crease the value of Real Estate in Mocksville. So get in and buy one of these choice lots now cheap and at your own price before they soar out of your reach. Penny Bros', the twin auc tioneers, will cry the sale, both selling the same lot at the same time, crying the same lot in the same tone of voice, in fact, speaking as one man. It is well worth your time to come and hear this great double team talk together, if for no other reason. Music furnished by an excellent band. This will be a Gala Day for Mocks ville. Don't miss this golden opportun ity that may never appear before you a- gain, but come and be with us on above date and shake hands with old friends that are sure to be there.

Anderson, f. B. Bailey, J. B. Johnstone, G. E. Horn, C. C. and Hugh Sanford, E. L. Gaither, Dr. R. P. Anderson and T. J. Byerly. Mr. Randieman pro posed to furnish $25,000 of the capi tal stock if the citizens of the town would invest $50,000 in stock. Af ter discussing the matter fully, Mr. Randleman’s proposition was accep ted and an agreement drawn up and signed to that effect. A committee composed of the following gentle men were appointed to select the site for the mill: E. L. Gaither. T. B. Bailey, J. F. Hanes, 0. L. Wil- j liams.

The pitcher of a baseball team is the human galling who shoots the ball at the batter. The pitcher is the most important member of the team. As long as he can keep the lutter from hitting the ball with his clnb, all is well. But when he develops glass arm, charley horse, stiff fingers or other structural weaknesses and serves up u ball ffs easy to hit as to whack a bumble Iiee with a shingle, his team may as well go home. It bus no chance. In order to get the ball past the batter tile pi teller must: curve it.

If the authorities find it possible to bring about a strict enforcement of the law, which is IiigIy doubtful, there will be no more white bread after today. Under a new statute it will be unlawful to sell flour that has been bleached. A provision of the pure food law prohibits the practice. The reason for the prohibitive clause is that flour is deteriorated by the bleaching process. Both the flavor and nutritive qualities are impaired. How the demand for flour that would make bread of j almost chalky whiteness grew, would be hard to explain. It de veloped as other fads develop and the stomach bore an added burden his knuckle into the ball, digs the ball into his wishbone, looks hate fully at (he batter, wags one earal the catcher as a semaphore signal, lifts his left leg and coils it around his right leg, waves his arm a- round seven times, makes a figure might be gratified.

There was no impulsive haste about this marriage butif the bride groom loves dogs and “ the boys” more thau he thinks he does now he may repent at leisure, says the New York World of a marriage per formed by Justice of the Peace Wil liam B. Williams ol Moiuelair. He wouldn't tell who the man and wo man are, but they can be easily identified if anybody iu Montclair wants to take the trouble for the next week or two and be on the lookout for a man running madly through the sheets of that pillage te gei home before !I o’clock iii^thc evening. * The Jnsticeof the Peace was call ed on the telephone yesterday morning and asked to be at his of fice promptly at 2 o’clock to attend to an important matter. It was a woman’s voice. The Squire prem ised. A t the appointed hour the young woman of the voice accompanied by a young man who seemed to have no voice at all appeared at at the office and anneuiiced that she was about to let her companion have a kind of Farmers Picnic and become her husband if he would ,the finest specimens of farm products sign a certain agreement in the pre- 1 be brought together for exhibition, sence of the justice of the peace. | and that some famous agricultural “ George,” shecontinned, “ says speaker be secured to publicly award calculating.-” “No, I love you dearly, but won’t you add just this much? Yon agree to let me have three drinks when we clean house. Now, just put iu the agreement that I can have three drinks every time we move. Please, dear.” The young woman hesitated, pondered, yielded. Then when the document had been amended to provide for a little lickering upon moving days, George seized the pen and signed his name. The girl and Mr. Williams signed theirs as witnesses. Half an hour later the pair re turned to the Squire’s office with two friends to act as witnesses and ■then they were married. Corn Club Organization. ^num ber of citizens who have contributed to the Com Club Prize FunT1l have suggested that there be some sort of organization to the end that these'premiums may be awarded at a suitable time and in a way cal culated to giv a inspiration to the en tire scheme. It has been proposed that we have a sort of Davie County Fair at the close of the contest, and that we now that he will be just the kind of a husband that I want him to be. But I insist upon getting him down i iiT bick and white as subscribing 'few simple rules of married He means well, but he is of .ty disposition and will take take Tiis marriage vows too lightly after awhile.” Thereupon the girl took from these various prizes, and at the same time make an agricultural address. It is thought that a Farmers Picnic and Fair of this sort, costing no thing, might be made an occasion of both pleasure and profit. To the end that these suggestions may have due consideration, and if found feasible put into effect, I re quest all citizens in the county favor ing a plan of this sort to meet at the her shopping bag the following ! court house, on the first Monday in document: “I solemnly' promise be- j Jutob ^en o’clock, fore the Justice of the Peace and I Jt is believed that, if the farmers, the woman whom I have asked t0 1 their wives and children, without re- i • n i - , , I gard to party or creed, should comee my wi e gi er my pay j togetller) eat together, and mingle envelope, unopened, every Satnr- 1 togetheA witness these awards and day night; to be at home every ; Jlgar a great speech from some re night by 9 o’clock, unless my wife j e0gnised agricultural leader, a sub- is out with me; uever to go to balls. s tan till impulse towards higher and or parties without her, and then better things would be given, never to dauce with anybody else J.

We arrived here the sixth of April, after a delightful trip across the continent, and of all the beau tiful scenery, nothing surpassed that of Western North Carolina. This is a small town of about 600 inhabitants, and is down in a val ley completely surrounded by very large hills so large that they look like mountains to a “ Tar heel.” Tucanon river flows around the town, is quite a pretty mountain stream and abounds in trout and suckers. It empties into Snake river three miles below here at Grange City Junction. The people are kind and hospit able. Their ways are quite differ ent from those of the North Caro liniaus. There are two churches here, Northern Methodist and the Christian. Both are poorly attend ed, very few young people go to church. W hilenotasreligiousas the Southern people, you find some good Christians among them. A great many people in this sec tion believe in social equality, while others do not. There has been but one negro here since we came, and he arrived on one train and left on the next. While not a farming town as Dayton and Waitsburg, there is quite a bit of farming done around Starbuck aud there are some very fine ranches. We are all very much pleased, and have never been the least bit homesick, and have never thought for a moment of going back to Mocksville. Dancing is the amuse ment for the people here, and is certainly indulged in. I will be brief this time, and if this escapes the waste basket, will try to give you something more about this free Western country. W ith all good wishes to The Re cord and readers.

Many town people purchased, and a number of them will erect nice homes, which will mean much to our town. Mr. Lut u r M. Toth, International Eield Secretary of the World-Wide Daraca Union, will address the peo ple of Mocksviile, at the First Bap tist church tonight, June 28th, on Baraca work. This great movement is interdenominational. Those who who fail to come, will regret it. The original scribe of The Davie Record told his readers this week: ‘ If your paper reaches you a day or two late this week, it is a sign that the editor is ir> Asheville eating chicken, or out among the briars eating blackberries.” We hope he wat given chicken.—Winston Journ al, 23rd. Sad, indeed, but we got neither. Blackberries around Asheville have not begun to ripen, and the chickens up that way roost too high. Believing that our friend over on Route I, who wrote us such a hot letter recently, has already repented we will not publish his letter. We are sorry that any of our subscribers should become offended at us for trying to collect what is due us. If you get a bill from our collectors don’t write and curse us, but write to the company from whence your bill came, as the matter has passed out of our hands, and we have noth ing whatever to do with the matter. oil and whose name appears at the top of the Company sheet, is some what bald-headed, and we wonder if he uses any of his oil on his own head? Surely not. Having had no dealings with J. Linn, a man who could buy Coo leemeeand never miss the money, we couldn’t say as to whether or not he is white or black. Seems to us that Triphney ought to know. It knows everything. THE LAST NOTCH. The Cooleemee Journal has reach ed the last notch. Realizing that neither the editor or the private se cretary could master the English language, they got together and produced a column of the greatest rot yet seen by the people of Davie county. We copy below just a little of the mess to show our subscribers what smart men we have to deal with. Hold your nose and read: "Mr. Sell ax youre bruther whut biz polyticks iz, i notis that he sez hiz paper is not a purlitical sheet. Now i tell yew i scribed for hiz pa per with the understanding that it W itz a republikan organ an if he iz dun away with the kerickter of the organ he must pay me my balance of subscription back.” Now, right here is where we want to pause a moment. If we are not badly mistaken in the identity of the • writer, he has doubtless received be fore this time a “love letter” from the Publisher's Adjusting Associa tion, of Kansas City, insisting that he come across with three or four vears’ back subscription due The Record. A bill was sent the mighty scribe from this office, but he re fused to pay it, with the above re sult. Gladly will we welcome him in our sanctum to settle. “Triphney sez she wants yew to ax him if he voted for prohibition or agin prohibition. The wimin are aul interested in this ticker business, an how did he vote for the presi dent? did he vote for Bill Taft or Bill Bryant?” We don’t know who Triphney is, and furthermore we are persuaded that it is none of Triphney’s busi ness how we voted, but for the ben efit of our subscribers, will say that we did not cast a vote for any man or any measure in the year 1908. Had we been permitted to vote, Mr. Bryan would have been beaten by one more majority, and Furnifool Simmons would have showed up one vote less. Itisno secret that we are a Republican, but we propose to run an independent paper, exposing fraud and trickery on both sides. ‘ ‘Ti iphney sez what about the Hor net? is it living yit, or iz it a summer hornet, lives a season and then dies? ',She sez she never knoed hornets good fur but one thing -and that to K etch flies.” This Hornet is different from the Cooleemee variety. It also catches suckers, and big ones, too. Some people haven’t got sense enough to catch either flies or suckers. “Maybe he thinks it is not honor able to sell hair ile, then little 5 cint jewelry J. Linn makes. Tha say down in this beat that J. Linn is a nigger I wonder if that is so. Triph- ney sez ax yew if your bruther was a pardner or a agent fur the J. Linn man."

TheNational World-Wide Bara- Ca and PhiIathea Convention met in Asheville June 19lh, and re mained in session until June 23rd. The following delegates from Davic eoimty were in attendance: F. A. Foster, 0 . C. Wall, T. I. Oaudell, Spurgeon Garwood, Laey Weston, Charles Deadmou and the editor. The Davie and Forsyth delegates, about 100 strong, stopped at The Oaks Hotel, one of the bes; places iu the Mountain City, where we were treated royally and well fed. We didn’t get auy blackberry pie or liied chicken, but plenty of oth er good things were spread before oui hungry eyes. We wish to re mark right here that the Winston delegation were the hungriest look ing and acting crowd that we have run up against in modern times. Long before the diuiDg room doors were thrown open, they would line up on the outside like soldiers on the firing line. Twice did we get left in the cold, but soon we got wise to the game and stuck closer to that door than a man doth to his brother. A reception was giv en the delegates Saturday evening in the Y. M. 0. A. building, and every one of the 1500 delegates present had a merry time. Music was furnished by the Thomasville OrphanageBaracaBaud 1 the only one in the United States, and dain ty refreshments were served by the fair Pliilatheas' of the various Asheville classes. It was indeed good to be with such a joyous and happy band. A t 9:30 Sunday there was a speaker in every Sunday school iu the city, and also a Ba- raca speaker in all the pulpits in the city at 11 a. m, A t 3:30 p. iu. Sunday, a grand mass meeting was held in the Auditorium, Speeches were made by Rev. Chas. McKen zie, of New York, Luther M. Tesh, Marshall A. Hudson, of Syracuse, and others. At 8 p. m., services were held in all the churches, pre sided over by Baracas. Monday morniug was spent in organizing and discussing various questions, such as who should teach the class? should the minister be the teacher? should the teacher be a man or woman? and what sort of a person should the teacher be! These va rious questions were discussed by Baracas from all parts of the Uni ted States, in an able manner. In the afternoon Baraca work iu the city and in the country was dis cussed by able speakers, and one minute report of classes were heard. ThefirstBaracaclass was organ ized abont fourteen years ago in Syracuse, N. Y., by President M. A. Hudson, with eighteen mem bers, and now numbers over three hundred thousand members. Re ports from all the classes showed wonderful gains for the past year, and much enthusiasm was mani fested. The Philathea meetings were held in the Methodist church and their reports were equally en couraging. Monday evening at 8 o’clock, an ideal social was given the delegates at the Auditorium by Mr. and Mrs. Geo. F. Zaneis, of Chicago, which was highly amus ing and entertaining. Sorry that space wiIPnot permit a more ex tended write-up of this model so cial. Tuesday morning was devo ted to reports of various officers,; and the afternoon was spent in sight seeing, many of the delegates taking in the Biltmore estate, oth ers going to Sunset Mountain. Riv erside Park and other places of interest. Wednesday was a busy day and the last. Various com mittees made reports and officers for the ensuing year were elected most of the old officers being re- 1 elected. next place of meet-) ing was left with the executive! committee, Jamestown. Omaha! and Birmingham, are asking for j the next convention, and we hope that the committee will see fit to give it to Jamestown, N. Y. We were compelled to leave Asheville Tuesday morniug, thereby missing some of the best meetings. We have uever attended a more enjoy able convention than the above, and we feel sure than much and lasting good lias been accomplish ed. Lnther M. Tesh, Internation al Field Secretary ofjf ’lhe Baraca Union, who ma le a JjgJbd speech on “ God give ns Men,” at the Au ditorium Sunday afternoon, will speak in the Mocksviile Baptist church tonight, Monday, June 28, at 8 o’clock. Every citizen of the town and county are earnestly re quested to come out and hear this great speaker. The meeting is in terdenominational. It is hoped that every church in this city wili organize both a Baraca and Pbila- thea class. Letter From Indiana. M r.

They turn out on an average of 45 machines per day, valued from $600 to $3,000. Pay roll of $20,000 every Saturday night.

Hearken, my daughter, for there ol' was concerned, you is a sound in the air! Yea, it is the sound of weeping and wailing. For the high priests in the pulpits of Chicago, even the clergymen, are crying, “Help! Help!” Lo, they have sent out a hurry call for chape rones! For, behold the women have come down upon them to devour fhem. Yea, they have come-in curling locks and straight front corsets in Doucet gowns and flower-pot hats. And they are a temptation! For how can a young and handsome pastor keep his heart upon the Lord and upon a "work of evil” in a violet toque at the same time? Then, whv doth a woman sigh in prayer meeting, yet not for her sins? Why don’t she present credited slippers as a burnt offering upon the altar of her religion and regard em broidered dressing gowns as a sign of faith? Why doth she consider a hand- painted book-mark pleasing in the sight of Heaven and yearn for “spir itual advice” when she maketh a- prons for the heathen? For I have seen those things. Then let every unprotected clergy man take unto himself a wife. For a wife is not a temptation, but a visitation. Lo! she cometh not in curling locks and straight-front cor sets, but in soiled kimonas and run down slippers. And she distraeteth not her husband’s thoughts from heaven. Nay, she cannot distract them even from his evening news paper, or his meals, or the pencil which he whittleth. For, once a man hath married a woman he think- eth no more about her than the newspaper he hath finished reading or the dinner which he hath finished eating. Yet a married clergyman shall mend his own altar cloths and water the flowers upon his pulpit. Yea, he shall go about in slippers that trem ble with old age and in dressing gowns that have seen better days. And upon Easter he shall hire the janitor to decorate his church. Lo! his Sunday school teachers shall cease to need spiritual enlightenment and shall go unto the curate for ad vice. Then heed the cry of the high priests in the pulpits of Chicago, for it is pitiful! And their terror shall not abate so long as woman continue to confuse the love of religion with the love of the pastor. Selali! Seasonable Advice to Rocky.

And you are g cm j along in years now, Johu, and von want to leave something that the people will think goodly of you for. If you leave it all to the two children yon have, you are going to burden them with too much wealth. So we’ve decided to ad vise you to provide a home iu ev ery state iu the Union—just a mod est home, say one that would cosl §50,000 aud endow it with $50,- 000 more, aud let those homes be for ihe respectable old people, who have lost their all through the greed of corporation; people who have had something and lost it, as victims of circumstances. And the other home, we would suggest that you bnild and endow for little children, babes who have come in to this world withuut proper care, where the mother has been desert ed by a worthless father. In one state build one homo, iu the other state build the other kind—and you’ll have Cavnegie monuments skinned forty- ways— and for years and years to come, the old people and the young folks will bless their benefactor.

CatarrK To prove unqnestionabl y. an<1 beyond any doubt. : that Catarrh of tl»e nose and throat can be cured, : I am furnishing patients through druggists, small free Trial Boxes of Dr. Shoop’s Catarrh Cure. • Ido this because Iam so certain, that Dr. Shoop’s Oitarrh Cure will bring actual substantial help. Nothing certainly, is so convincing as a physical test of any articleof real, genuine merit. Butthut article must possess true merit, else the test will condemn, rather than advance it. Dr. Shoop’sCatarrh Cure is a snow white, healing antiseptic balm, put up in beautiful nickel capped glass jars at 50c. Such sootliing agents as Oil Eucalyptus, Thymol, Menthol, etc.. are incorporated into a velvety, cream like Petrolatum, imported by Dr. Bhoop from Europe. If Catarrh of the nose and throat has extended to the stomach, then by all means also use internally. Dr. Shoop’s Restorative. ‘ Stomach distress, a lack of general strength, bloating, belching, biliousness, bad taste, etc. surely call for Dr. Shoop’s Restorative.Eor uncomplicated catarrh only of ihe nose and Qiroat nothing else, however, need be used but Br.

THE CURSE 0> THE SOUT What is the matter with the South? According to Government report of 1908, “The Secret is out at Last:”—The Southerner, contrary to cur rent opinion is not Lazy, Shiftless, Indifferent, or Careless. “ He is Sick.” The South is afflicted with and harbors that most dreaded treacherous and destructive of all diseases, Anemia, Pernicious Anemia. The average Southerner is a sufferer of this Health destroying Parasite which destroys the red blood cells producing an impoverished condition- of the Blood; which is characterized by extreme Pallor, General Debility, Weakness, Loss of Vigor-Lack of Ambition, and general undermining of Vitality. The Climate and Atmospheric conditions destroy the Vitality. Let him get oyer it, get rid of it, get well, and he is as good physically as the hest America can boast. If there is health of the slightest degree in your sys tem, Wake it up, call it forth. Pull yourself together, man, woman or child; all can and should be well. ToneglectyoUrselfis to reflect upon ihe wisdom of your Maker. Nature intends all Humanity to enjoy a full measure of Health and Vigor. If you do not, the fault is your own, for you are yourself to mame for it. Wonders have been accomplished for the People of Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi. Let us now do as much for the People of the Carolinas. A postal will bring you the necessary information. Send no money. W rite today. Don’t neglect this chance here offered you.
