SCOTLAND NECK, The Democrat has not been paid to advertise our sister town but it teels constrained to offer a comment or two from what was remarked on our streets about Greenville yesterday, and some other things that have come under our observation. A gentleman said to the editor of the | ~ Democrat that Greenville is making more rapid development than any other town in Eastern Carolina, aud another the tobacco interests there. The Democrat has been thinking about the matter, but does not mean by the heading of this article to sug- gest that the two towus, Greenville and Scotland Neck, are at all opposed to each other. Indeed we know that Scotland Neck rejoices in Greenville’s prosperity and we believe that Green- ville would rejoice in a greater prosperi- ty for Scotland Neck than we now’ en- joy and we are doing fairly well. We do notknow so much about the tobacco interests of Greenville for we have not had an opportunity to judge about that except through the columns of the REFLECTOR; but we do know something about another thing or two. We know that no paper in the State few papers in the State show plainer town. are all the time well filled with brist- men of Greenville. gentleman remarked that it is due to}, has worked harder tor its town than the Reriector, and we know that evidence of appreciation of their efforts on the part of the business men of the Thecolumns of the REFLECTOR ling advertisements by the live business They are free wo Hilliard. His remarks are in keeping | with what has often been asserted in these columns, as well as in papers else- where, that “a town is judged. largely by its newspaper.” | Let us assure our good brother also that Greenville does feel the kindliest interest in Scotland Neck, and would rejoice to see that ‘splendid town en- joying the highest measure of prosperi- ty. We know the town has good peo- ple in it. Some who formerly belonged to her are now citizens of Greenville and they are among our best and most progressive citizens. As to the Democrat, there 1s not one of our weekly exchanges that we read vith more interest and regularity. It is pure, clean, honest and conscientious in all its utterances, and editorially is a And it has often been a wonder to us that the business model newspaper. men of Scotland Neck make it neces- sary for the excellent paper they have to look elsewhere than at home for the By so doing they stand greatly in their own light. bulk of its advertising patronage. Panic in aMorgantun Church. Morganton had a sensation Sunday night. The Methodist church was the only one in the town which was open and it was packed. Dhurectly after the minister began his sermon the floor was felt sinking and the congregation be- came panic-stricken.. There was & scene of wild disorder, mingled with which were the screams of the terrified Boys Spring Suits. My: line is all in and I have some beauties - to select from.

Mr. FRANK WILSON, Greenville, N. C. : Dear Sir:—You have made a liar of me. A-friend of mine saw the Spring Suit I bought of you, and asked me who my tailor was. I gave him the name of a prominent tailor and thought it would end there.’ But no! He asked me how much it cost, and had to tell him another lie. But the part. 1 feel mean about is the tailor got the credit that belonge to you. Yours, ete., L. OTHIER. FRANK WILSON.

And the effect is seen in the quickened prosperity of the town. ' But some one might Bay the tobacco antereat of the town is whiat has set it on such a pleasing career of prosperity Grant it: and yet,again we declare that had it not been for the faithful and persistent newspaper work done for Greenville its tobacco interests would have been as lifeless as a worm-cut gourd-vine under a noon-day sun. Now, as to Scotland Neck : We have compared the last issues of the ReFLEc- ror and the Democrat and find that the REFLECTOR carries twice as much advertising for the business men of Greenville as the Democrat carries for the business men of Scotland Neck.

Rites Observed When When Death Entered ® Monastery and Claimed a Victim. _ In the “Durham Rites” we read how before the high altar were “three mar- velous faire silver. basons hung in. cLainesof silver;” these contained great wax candles, “which did burne contin- ually both day and night, in token that the house was always watchinge to God.” Many and various are the es- timates which men make as to the effi- cacy of prayer in changing or ‘modi- ‘fying God’s purposes toward men; few will, however, be found to deny the noral beauty of this conception, which was the common heritage of all the monastic orders. ‘The ideal of every monastery was the ideal typified by the Durham ever-burning lights. “The house was always watchinge to God.” The well-known collects and prayersen- shrined in the solemn liturgy of the Church of England are in large meas- “Ure The prayers and collects prayed and Sung | for’so many centuries, by day and by night, in the 1,000 abbeys and chap- els of the monks; they were. thus for- ever in terceding “for all sorts and con- ditions of men.” But, besides the ere el prayers far.others, a peculiar spiritual fellow- ship “existed between the religious” of The same order, and indéedl was often extended to those of other orders. Mr. Htunt (“An Account of the Priory of St. Peter and St. Paul at Bath”) gives us a remarkable illustration ef this_ ‘eHowship in the bond of prayer made between the priory of Bath and six other Benedictine cotivents, as far back as A, D. 1077, in which the parties agréed te pray far ofie anothér and their brethren, and,to be loyal to the king and queen with one heart and one soul. “It will be observed,” adds' Mr. Hunt, “that'two of theabbots were of the con- quering race, and their ‘union with thei, English brethren is pleasant to contem plate. ” When a monk died a messenger was dispatched to all the: religious commu- nities from which prayérs were due. and: indeed to many others, with the mortuary roll, having at the head an announcement of the death and a short a¢eount of the deceased. © Each commu- uity “acknowledged the receipt. of the rell-by writing upon itea promise of prayer for the soul of the departed, and, as a rule, a request for similar prayers for their deceased brethren and benefactors was‘added. The benefits of these prayers seem to have been’ granted to a large number of, benefac- tors and others, Nor was this priv- a nermal payment, such as 4 pound of wax, Seems to have qualified a man or woman to receive it, if otherwise fit- ting, into the number of “fratres’ or “soroves” of the convent. Those so ad- mitted knew that the Divine sacrifice was daily offered for them in the church of the monastery, and that prayer was continually made for them while they lived, and that after death the welfare of their souls would be the subject of special intercession.—Quar- terly Review. ROLLED C CAKES. Easily Prepare If You You Only Knaow How . to Proceed. Thete are. several species of rolled cakes which require special treatment. The best known of these are the rolled sponge cakes, which are‘usually spread with jelly, custard, soft chocolate or some fillings rolled up while warm, and when cooled cut off in slices from the end. These cakes are easily pre- successful because of her failure to ob- serve two or three simple things neces- sary to success.

The visitor from the back district enters a New York hotel} office in the same spirit that he would invade St. Peter’s, in Rome. There js some- thing in the architectural grandeur, in the richness and extravagance of form and color, in the mellow light coming from vaulted ceilings and colored glass that touches the spirit with a sense of calm. And the man behind the rose- wood andonyxcounter! Whatdignity of mien! What austerity of counte- nance! What Jove-like front! And the gentleman coming yonder across the mosaic floor.

Human nature is the sanic in the midst of all its impressiveness as it is in Princeville or Jackson's corners. The distinguished-looking gentleman seizes by the hand the dignitary on the other side of the counter and says: “Hello! old stockin’, how are you? You look fit. to run four miles!” “Bully! bully!

For instance, incomplete closure of the eyelids, rendering the whites of the eyes visible during sleep, is @ symptom in all acute and chronic diseases of a severe type; it is also to be observed when rest is unsound from pain, wherever seated. . Twitching of the eyelids, associated with the oscillation of the «veballs, or squinting, herald the visit of convul- sions. Widening of the orfices of the' nose, with movements of the nostrils to and fro, point to embarrassed breathing from disease of the lungs or their plural investment. Contraction of the brows indicates pain in the head; sharpness of the nos- trils, pain in the chest, and a drawn upper lip, pain in the abdomen. To make a general rule, it may: be stated that the upper third of the face is altered in expression in affections of the ‘brain, the middle third, in the diseases of the organs contained in the abdominal cavity —The Trained Nurse.
