It is Incomprehensible.
In a recent issue the Weldon
News says: |
oWe now have before us a copy
of the Weldon and Enfield Mer-
cantile Review,� published once
only and which is no more than
a handbill. Yet we see in it
owrite-ups� of a good many
business houses. These houses
each paid a liberal price for thebe
sheets and what do they get in
return? A. few copies which
they must distribute and there
the matter ends. Nowhereis the
Roanoke News, an established
paper with & good circulation,
and laboring weekly to build up
the town. When your sons and
daughters get married we giye
them an elaborate send off, and
when you die we ~frite you & feel-
ing obituary all free, gratis and
fur nothing. Yet we venture the
assertion thet the business men
would not have paid us the
amount they paid for this hand-
bill, if we had gone around town
and offered to do the work.�
It is strange that the Weldon
News should have to make such
a complaint. It is incompre-
hens:ble that business men
shovld act as those in Weldon
have done in patronizing an
advertising scheme gotten up by
persons whose only interest in
the matter was what money there
was in it, still they will do it,
and as a general thing seem eager
to throw all their patronage away
from those who work the hardest
for the benefit of the commu-
nity atlarge. We have had men
to whom we had given hundreds
of dollars worth of free adyer-
tising, and benefitted in various
other ways, send their work off to;
some outside ojackleg� who offer-
eito do them a poor job a few
cents lower than we would do
them a good one for.
Well. itTs all in a lifetime, and
i; 1s some comfort to know that
other raen who have proved of
benefit to their community get
the same dose. Still it is not
business, to say the Jeast ef it,
and the short sighted individuals
who practice it will find that out
to their sorrow some day-"Rocky

As it Wasin the Days of Abraham.
Wlthin fail view of the streets
of Morganton and not eight miles
away as the crow flies is a coun-
~try where some of the farming
methods are identical with those
in vogue ih the time of Abraham.
On the top of KaylorTs Knob,
one of the highest peaks of the
South Mountain, is a wheat field
containing nearly a hundred acres,
comparatively level ana of remark
able fertility. In this field on the
side next to Morganton 1s a great
flat rock which has been used
time out of mind as a threshing
floor. Here the wheat and rye is
brought and threshed with flails,
and winaowed just as Boaz wi.-
nowed his barley at his threshing
floor near Bethel centuries ago."

was a remarkable colored woman
from the fact that she was one of

Mr. N., a struggling lawyer ina
small town in Ohio, received a call
from a farmer who wanted legal ad-
vice. Mr. N. took down ~a much
used volume from his small book-
case and gave tlfe required advice,
for which he charged the modest
sum of $3. His client handed hima
$5 bill. With a troubled look Mr.
N. took it. He flushed in the face
as he passed his fingers nervously
through his pockets, and his embar-
rassment increased as he continued
his search among the papers on his
desk. ~~Well,TT said he, taking down
the lawbook again ~and turning over
the pages, oIll give you two more
dollarsT worth of advice.TT"Pitts-

When NapoleonTs army was in

up the tune which in England is set
to the song ~~We WonTt Go Home
Till Morning,TT its effect on the Be-.
douins was electrical. They leaped
and shouted and embraced one an-
other deliriously. They averred
that they were listening to the old-
est and most popular tune of their
people. It is thought that the tune
was brought to Europe from the
dark continent in the eleventh cen-
tury by the Crusaders. " London
