How Towns Are Meade or Killed.
Here js an execllent article fourd in
an exchanee which Tne REFLECTOR
commends to the careful perusalT of iis
readers : .
More towns die fer want of confi-
dence on the part of bustrrss men and
lack of public spirit than from the riva!-
ry of ne ghboriig town or adverse sur-
roundings.� When a man in search of
a home or business location goes to a
town and finds everything brimful of
hope and enthusiasm oyer the prospects
of the place and earnestly at work to
build up the town, he soon becomes
imbued with the same spirit, and as re-,
sult he @rives down his stake and goes
to work with the same interest. When,
one ¢xpressess doubt and apprehetsion
in the futune prosperity of the place»
moping about and indulging in mourning
complains about imaginary evils which
ly feels it is no plece for him, apd at
once shakes the dust from his fat. whii
he pulls with all possible speed for
some other town. Consequently try
and make a live, enterprising, progres-
sive town out of the one in which you
live. When you areT working for or
saying a good thing for your town you
are accomplishing all the more for}
yourself,

The Burden ot Pensions.
The nersion expenditures for
the fiscal year 1299, thirty-four
years aftor the close of the war,
will reach $150,000,000. What
doer it mean?
Nt means the interest at 3 per
cent, on a debt of $5,000,000,000,
which is more than any other
national debt in the world except
that of France.
It?s mora than the combined
expenditures for all purposes of
the States in the Union. That
is tosay, if the money spent for
pensions wera divided among the
States, all taxation for State pur-
poses could be dispensed with.
"Tt is more than eight times the
combined revenues of all the
univercities and colleges of the
United States, and almost as the
eost of all the public schools.
It is more than what we are
accustcmed tocall the ocrushing
burden� of any army ~in Europe.
It is enough for fortifying our
coasts impregnably in eight
montbs, and for building the,
finest navy inthe world in two
years. a
If we spentfor pensions twice
as much every year as Garfield
said over twenty years ago would
be the highest: amount ever re-
quired, the difference between
that and what we are paying now
would clear off our entire nation
al bonded debt in ten years. Af-
erthatit would more than pay
the interest on the bonds requir
ed ta give the government .con-
trol of all the railroads in the
Thited States.
Our pension ontiay for six
months would build the Nicars-
guan Canal, and in another six
morths it would duplicate the
Western Union Telegraph Sys-
tem for the benefit of the public.
If the pension roll had been
confined to double the Garfield
Standard, we should never have
had a deticit~in asingle year, and
instead of issuing new bonds to
make both ends meet, we shou'd
haye exhibited to the world
long before now the remarkable
spectacle of a government out
of debt, and reducing taxes to cut
down surplus revenues.
As long as the penswna teak
continues at its present dimen-
sions, it will be useless for Serre-
, tary Gage or anybody else to
formulate financial policies with
the idea of relieying the distress
of the Treasory."N. Y. Journal:

Dr. Dedwel' relates an interesting
ace-unt of what he considers 9 remark -
able cure of acute stomach trouble and
chrome dyspepsia by the use of the
new. discovery, StuartTs Dyspepsia
TabletTs.
He says: The patient was a man
who had suffered tomy knowledge for
years with dyspepsia, Everything he
ate seemed to sour and create acid and
gases in the stomech; he had pains like
rheumatism in the back, shoulder blades
find limbs, fullness and distress after
eiting, poor appetite and loss of flesh;
the heart became affected, causiug pal-
pitation and sle plessness at night,
I gave him powerful nerve tonics
and blood remadies, but to vo purpose.
Asan experiment I finally bought a
fifty cent package of StuartTs Dyspep-
sia Tablets at a drug store and gave
them tohim. Almost immediate reliet
was given and after he bad used tour
boxes he was to all appearances fuils
cured.
There was no more acidity or sour
watery risings, no bloating after meals
appetite was vigorous and he has gained
between 10 and 12 pcunds in
of solid healthy flesh.
Although StuartTs Dyspepsia ~Tap-

Cheerfulness as a Duty. :
How many who read these lines
really consider it a duty, says The
YouthTs Advocate, to be always
cheerful? There may be occasions
when it is very difficult to maintain
an even temper and make others feel
the uplift a bright and joyous heart
always sends forth, but every duty
is sometimes hard to perform. For
the sake of oneseif it is always a
duty to be cheerful. Melancholy is
a mild form of suicide. It wears upon
the nerves and tends to break down
the whole physical man. It disfigures
the face with ugly wrinkles and
soursT the heart with unpleasant
broodings. The cheerful soul light-
ens life on earth and greatly increas-
es the pleasure of its own existence.
For the sake of others every one
should be cheerful and joyous under
all circumstances. It is a pleasure
to be associated with a person who
has a bright and happy disposition,
No one can long retain friends and
constantly burden them with a wail
about his woes. Peoplo soon learn
to shun a whimpering, complaining

Everybody wants the companion-
ship of a cheerful spirit and a pure
heart.

selves and evéry body else from early
childhood and carefully trained in
the best way of preserving an even
temper and always maintaining a
cheerful spirit.

Gentlemen:-"A previous experience
with PaineTs celery compound, as a re-
svoner of exhausted energy, induced me
recently to take it again, the many du-
ties of the mayorTs effice havine taxed
my slight physical resources grealy. I
made no mistake. In one week, I
found my appetize improyed, the feel-
iag of weaviness disappearing, and my
neryes beconung steadier. PaineTs cel-
ery compound tias thus been a friend
in time of need, and I like to say a word
for a friend.

A boy read tales of the sea and he
said: ~~When I am a man,I1 will
quit the plow; I will sail up and
down the high seas, north and south

the earth.�T But when he was a man
there were those for whom he must
care ~and he must needs wait. And
so, day after day, year after year,
till he was old and bent and gray,
between the two handles of his plow,
over and over he trudged his nar-
row field, still sailing up and down
the high seas, north and south and
east and west, visiting all the lands

Cotton at Sl
We ean remember when cotton sold
at $129 per pound. right here in
Witmington. This was in 1865, di-
rectly after the close cf the war. It
had been hidden in various places,
some of them very secret and out of
the way. The late James Dawson
had.65 bales bricked up ina vault in a
building on South Water street, the
building in the rear of Messrs. James
C. Stevenson & TaylorTs wholesale
grocery house and now owned by Mr.
Stevenson. We saw this cotton
brought to light and helped to weigh
is Wewere told that Mr. Dawson
got $1.25 per pound for it, but in this
we may have been misiaformed as from
a table before us we find the highest
price quoted in New York was $1,20
and therefore we adopt these figures.
But in ore year, 1864, did it go beyonu
$1.20. In that year it got up as high
as $1.90 per pound, against 93 cents
in 1863.
The table we allude to is sent out hy
Price, McCormick & Co., of New
York, There was a big drop, however
towards the latter part of 1865, when
it ranged down as low at 35 cents.
From that time the descent was grad-
ual, but sure. As late as 1891, seven
years ago, it so'd tor 125 cents, In
1896 the maximum was 84 and the
minmum 7 1-i6. These figures, be
~it understood, were for middling. To-
.20 per Pound. ,
