Said Father Tempus, I have « plan,
T’m going to swear off on the first of

But his resolution began to ebb, ,
He was two days shy by the end of

Theti he lost his ‘emper and went so
far
As to bawl and bluster through

He putled and blew till he spoiled his

So he took the water cure in

He took a shower bath every day,
And was most disa greebale all through

Then summer came and he changed
his tune—
Any fool can be giod in

But the strain was so great that by and

He was taken with fever in

He cnly eszaped the morgue,
His temperature was so hot in

So well as in convalescent

When he recovered tke world was
shocked,

For he painted the country red in

What Advertising 1s.

Adyertising may be done in a thous-

If he prints lis announcement on
cards and hands them to the passerby,
he is advertising the store.

If he puts his sign above the door, or
goods in the window, he is advertising
the store.

If he makes a hundred duplicates of
his sign and nails them on fences or
dead wails where people can see them,
he is advertising.

If he joins a church or «a club, or a

will become kaown, and he will still be

STATE NEWS

 

A Republican weekly newspaper is
to be started in Raleigh about the first
of February.

J. F. Coss, the editor of the Watch
Tower, at Washington, has changed it
from a semi-monthly to a weekly paper.
The readers will be glad to get it every
week,

The Raleigh News and Observer
says the Baptist church at Newbern hes
withdrawn fellowship from Robert
Hancock, President of the A. & N. C,
Railroad, because of the recent scandal
with which b2 is charged,

The house which the authorities of
Wilmington had selected in which to
isolate the case of small pox in that
city, was burned a few nights ago. It
is thought that coiored people living in
the vicinity of the house set tire to it to

keep the case from being moved there.

Reports to the Iabor commisaioner,
show that in- eleven counties in the
State there are no railroads, He says
Yancey, Watauga, Ashe Allezhany

in the State is 3 726, which gives one
mile of road for each 14 square miles of

In the early torties,a representative

not only sought his fortune out eventu-
ally was so successful that at his death,
through his energy and economy, was |

He lett a son and a daugbter. The
son. Dunean Dew, Jr., embarked inf

But soon after this his sister died

The Crow and the Pitchers
The late Mr. sop, who used
to write smail, vertinent tracts,
with large, aggressive morals, for
the edification alike of the an¥
cient Greeks and the modern

school poys, is responsible for

this anecdote.

A crow who had been harangu-
ing a ward caucus ail the evening
had contracted a large, 1mportu-
nate thirst.

As he was looking about to
find some meansof relieving kim-
self of this sime thirst, he dis-
covered a pitcher which contain—
ed water.

Put the pitcher was very large,
and the quantity of water it con~
tained was small, and reposed at
the very bottom.

For anatomical reasons the
crow could not dip his bill into
the water, and drink from tLe
pitcher as it was.

Nor was there any use in try-
ingto pour out the water, for
the crew could not lift the pitcher

Besides, he had no cup.

But he was a wisé crow, and
aleo persistent, and he immed-
fately resolved himself into a
committee of the whole Gn Ways
and means and hatched ont a
solution of the problem.

He picked a pebble from many
laving around and dropped it
into the pitcher.

iie kept on propping pebbie
after pebble into the pitcher,
unti} the water approached near
enough to the top for him to
drink, and he slaked his thirst
with ease. &

Moral: It is  continnots
advertising that pays.

If the crow had stopped after
one insertior, merely because he
could not see any result, he would
be thirsty yet.

Not that they do not want it to

wrong idea |

An Honest Man.

An bonest man wile not buy
what he knows he cannot pay for;
he will not borrow money when
he can see no way to pay it back;
ifhecannot meet an obligation
he will come forward in a maoly
way and tell his creditor the
whole truth; he will not hide out
when pay day comes, but will
face the world and say: “I can-
not now meet it, but’ give me
timeand 1 will; I will not run
away from my debts.” Such a
man as thatcan always get cred-
it, be he ever 80 poor. ,

The business world is begin-
nivg to place more confidence ip
good moral security than in the
best of real estate and money
collateral. This putsa premium
op honesty. A man’s money
may slip through his fingers, but
if he be a man of honor he will
always be willing to pay what he
owes, and some day God’s boun-
teous hand will be held out to
him, and he will not only be will-
ing, but ready. After all, there
is muchtruth in the old saying
about honesty beimg the best

policy, and in Pope’s famous
line:
‘an honest man’s the noblest work of
God.”’

Let’s be honest; we can’t afford
to be otherwise. God intended
that we be honest and true.—
Memphis Christian Advocate.

Mrs. Nack Sentenced to Imprison-
ment.

ances, SO

New York, Jan. 10—Mrs- Au-
gusta Nack, jointly charged with
Martin Thorn of the murder of
William Guldensuppe, a bath
rubber, at Woodside, lL. I, in
June of last vear, was today sen-
tenced to fifteen years in tho
state prison at Auburn. The
good time allowance attainable
may reduce reduce term to ten
years and five months.

Thorn ws sentenced to ba
electroented during the week ve-
ginning today but the appeal
taken by his attorney acted asa

gi@y.

Mrs. Nack received ker sen-
tence calmly. She will be taken
to Auburn as soon as the neces-
sary forms of procedure can be
cone through with.

In sentencing her, the court
sought to impress upon her that
although she was equally guilty
with Thora, she had made a wise
move when she decided to be-
come a witness for the state.
Judge Garretson: said the court
was bound’to recognize the
asistance Mrs. Nack had rendered
in testifying against Thorn.

When Thorn was informed by
Warden Sage, of the sentence, he
showed but little interest. Thorn
said he would rather have died
today than ‘ave any further
delay. Heintimated that he did
nos expect x» new trial or a
commutatiou of the death sen-
tence. .

-on the life of E. “. Barnes, of Hen-
derson, who recently died at Creedmoor,
to the amount of $5,000, refusing to
pay the policy, an investigation was
held in Henderson Monday,

The body of Mr. Barnes was
exhumed on the dcy named and a
post mortem examination was made by
young Dy. Royster, of Raleigh, Drs.

and the other physicians of Henderson
—in all seven doctors.

It was found that his brains, heart
and liver were all right, except the
latter was somewhat enlarged, as is
said to be the case in death. It was
discovered that his death was caused
by anaccident;the breaking of am artery
in the right leg, between the hip and
anee. This was caused by his running
to catch a train, and twisting his leg in
some way, which was mentioned at the
time, and from this accident he never
recovered. The doctors agreed thet
that was what eaused his death, and
it looks like the opinion of seven
physicians should satisfy the insurance

ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.

The Story of a Daughter’s Devotion and a
Lover's Faithfulness.

Twenty-five years ago there was a
romance at Maysville—a love story
in which there was nothing out of
the ordinary. It was like hundreds
of others, and there did not then ap-
pear to be a possibility that it would
become remarkable. It became
Known there that two young people,
who will be called John Smith and
Mary Jones, were engaged to be
married. John Smith had been pay-
ing attentions to the young lady
about two years, andthe announce-
mont of their engagement did not
cause any surprise.

The wedding day was set and
nearly all the preparations had been
made when the mother of the bride
to be became il]. On account of her
illness the marriage had to be post-
poned. Inashort time it became
apparent that her mind was impair-
ed, and still a little later the terrible
truth forced itself on the minds of
her friends—the mother of Mary
Jones was insane. Arrangements
were made to send her to the asy-
lum, and it was then that her daugh-
ter raised objections. She would not
have her mother sent to the asylum
at all and declared that she would
devote her life to taking care of her.

When she made that vow, Mary
Jones was 18 years old, a bright, in-
telligent young woman, handsome
and talented. In addition to that
she was engaged to be married to
one of the best young men in the
county—a ycwng man of wealth and
refinement, to whom she had made
a solemn promise. Her father own-
eda large tract of land and a fine
house. He was amply able to em-
ploy a nurse for the demented wom-
an as long as she might live, and to
his mind there was no reason why
his daughter should not marry after
a reasonable length of time.

There was a reason, however—the
strong sense of duty the daughter
had and her resolve that she would
never leave her mother while she

 

 

c lived. She triumphed over the argu-

ments of her friends and settled
down toa life in which there appear-
ed to be little hope except the re-
ward for filial duty. She put aside
all thoughts of the life she had con-
templated, and from that day she
has been her mother’s loving and
devoted attendant. The mother’s
mind isa total wreck. She is not
violent, but her mind is gone, and
she must have constant care and at-
tention. Twenty-five years have
passed since she became demented,
and during that time her daughter
has not been away from her a single
day. .

Twenty-five years ago John Smith
used to call every Sunday night at
the home of Mary Jones. They sat
on the cool front porch during the
summer and by the fireside in win-
ter. Then they planned their future
—the happy life they were to live
after they were married.

John Smith still makes the Sun-
day night visits as regularly as in
the olden time. If he should miss
one Sunday night, it would be un-
derstood at once that he was ill or
that some other good and sufficient
cause had prevented him from being
there on time. His hair is gray, and
there are wrinkles in his face. The
girl he expected to claim as his bride
igan old maid now, and her once
bright eyes are beginning to lose the
luster of youth, but she is still firm
in her determination to remain with
her mother as long as her mother
lives.. The engagement has never
been broken. The young man said
he would wait until her task at home
was over, and he has waited. The

true. If he ever grows impatient,
the patient face of the woman whose
devotion is more than remarkable is
enough to make him ashamed of his
impatience, It is said to his credit
that he has never made the slightest
effort to persuade the daughter to
leave her mother.

Stories like this are often told in
books, but this is one in real life.—
St. Joseph News.

‘‘And, now,’ said the colonel of

‘There was no response.

“It isa dangerous mission,’’ said
the officer. ‘‘The man who attempts
it will find himself in very cramped
quarters, and is liable at any mo-
ment to get stuck. Who will go?”’

There was another brief silence,
and then a thin man with a weazen-
ed face spoke up:

“T guess I can do it, if any man
can, colonel. I used to Jive in a

Interesting Experience of an Indianap-

;

 

No trouble is more common or more
misunderstood than neryous dyspepsia.
People having it think that their nerves
are to blame and are surprised that they
are not cured by nerve medicine and
spring remedies; the real seat of the
mischief is lost sight of, the stomach is
the organ to be looked after.

Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whateverin the stomach, nor
perhaps any of the usual symptoms of
stomach weakness. Nervous dyspep-
sia shows itself notin the stomach so
much as in nearly every other orgar, in
some eases the heart palpitates and is
irregular, in others the kidneys are
affected, in others the bowels are con-
stipated, with headaches, still others are
troubled with loss of flesh and appetite,
with accumulation of gas, sour risings
and heartburn.

Mr A W Sharper of No 61 Prospect,
St Indianapolis, Ind., writes as follows:
A motive of pure gratitude prompts me
towrite these few lines regarding the
new and valuable medicine, Stuart’s
Dyspepsia Tablets. I have been a
sufterer from nervous dyspepsia for the
last four years, bave used various pat-
ent medicines and other remedies
without any favorable result, They
sometimes give t: mporary relief until
the effects of the medicine wore off. I
attributed this to my sedentary habits,
being a bookkeeper with ‘ittle physical
exercise, but I am glad to state that the
tablets have overcome all these obsta-
cles. for 1 haye gained in flesh, sleep
better and am better in every way.
The above is written notfer> notoriety
but is based on aetual fact.

tespecttully yours,
A. W. Sharper,

61 Prospect St., Indianapolis, Ind.

It is safe to say that Stuart’s Dyspep-
sia Tablets will cure any stomach
weakness or disease except cancer of
stomach. ‘They cure sour stomach, gas,
loss of flesh and appetite, sleeplessness,
palpitation, h artburn, constipacion and
headache.

There is no telling where ingrati-
tude begins or ends; there would be
fewer good deeds-done if every one
had a chart of the beneficiaries’
hearts. Of course we are taught to
do good for the sake of good itself
and are well aware—those of us who
are not pagans—that the eternal re-
ward is to be conferred some time
upon those who yield unselfish min-
istrations to God’s:poor. But our
véry education from childhood in.
dulges that instinct to{be good be-
cause”. So that when We have
done what we consider a trifle more
than our duty, although when we
are hard pressed we admit to our
pastors and spiritual masters that
the needy are really our charge’ and
the maint spiritual test of our chari-
ty, we are never quite ready to ac-
cept the rebuff of thanklessness and
ingratitude that is usually the por-
tion of the welldoer. Perhaps there
is no fate sterner than that known
as the charitable man or woman—
the being to whom absolute stran-
gers repair with their request for
advices, moneys, sustenance. There
is no salary attached to this civil
martyr, but his time is employed
just as though there were, with oth-
er unsatisfactory conditions attach-
ed to the office.

If the charitable man or woman
who has been so unfortunate as to
wear the reputation he or she has
earned declines to assist a polite
beggar, he may count upon vituper-
ation and an injured reputation
within the s’ennight; which points
a moral to all benefactors, not to let
the right hand know, ete., and 1m-
press upon your friends that you
are not so good as you're painted.
No one will ever find you out from
any reports originated by the recip- |
ients of your good deeds.

This little preamble was inspired
by several stories that have come
to the writer direct from one of the
noblest women of God’s fashioning,
whose life is devoted to the pur-
suance of all good. For some months
she has been intermediary in a little
matter of $5 which a worthy indi-
yidual instructed her to place each
month where it would do most good.
There had been for some time on her
hands a woman with several chil-
dren and a sick mother; so she ap-
propriated the money to their use,
that amount paying their rent.
usual, Jast month, Miss S—— mailed
the $5 to the woman, but to her sur-
prise received a call a tew days later
from this beneficiary, requesting
the usual stipend. Miss S—— was
surprised, and told the woman that
as usual she had posted the amount,
“It’s very strange,” replicd the in-
erate, ‘because I should have re-

ceived it if you had mailed it. 1)

think you must be mistaken.” Miss
S——. assured her that she had done
so. ‘Well, I’ve moved since last
month, but I left word to have any
letters forwarded to me, and they
would certainly have done so had
you sent me that money. I think
that person who gives you the mon-
ey for me ought to know about it.”’
Miss S—— almost choked with mor-
tification, but (foolishly enough)
gave her a $5 bill, which she could
ill afford, and told her she would
look into the other matter. The let-
ter was found at the postoffice and
delivered by the postinan with an
explanation, whereupon the woman
called again upon her best friend.
“Tum glad the money was traced, ’’
she said, ‘‘because it raises all eus-
picion against yourself. As to that
85 bill of yours, I needed something,
so had it broken, but here is what
is left.”

Polygamy.

The Ogden (Utah) Commonwealth
says that while it is true that polyg-
amy still exists in Utah it is never-
theless dying out. It affirms, what
has been doubted, that the church
no longer favors it and those Mor-
mons who return to polygamous
connections do so with more or less
secrecy. It thinks that the Mormon
people desire and really intend that
the practice of polygamy among
them shall cease, though a minority
cling to it with firm domestic hero-
icm, setting an example to malcon-
tent gentile husbands, who often find
a single wife one too many for their
powers of management and disci-
pline.

AS,

The astonished Miss S——!

 

Tho greatest strength of a horse is
limited by his worst point, and it is
wrong in principle to buy & horse
because he possesses one or more de-
sirable qualities.

A horse should be rejected for one
bad fault, while, if an attractive
horse is rejected on account of bad
points anda plain one secured, there.
is the satisfaction ef knowing thata
horse with no bad qualjties is at
least a serviceable animal,

In selecting a horse always stand
behind him as he walks away. This
is the surest way of ascertaining
whether his action is true and
straight. .

In judging of the height and size
by sight be sure that the animal
stands on a level with yourself. Let
him go away from you, and as he
goes observe him closely from be.
hind. Thenas he is turned round
let him come to you while you watch
his movements. Then stand on one
side and observe him closely. From
these observations you can draw
your own conclusions, taking into
consideration the following points:

You do not want a horse witha
big, coarse head, nor with a small,
sunken eye, nor with a long, slack
back or a hollow back. Such an ani-
mal cannot carry weight. A horse
with flat sides or with flat loins is
usually a bad feeder.

Reject a horse with a short, thick
neck, as usually with a clumsy neck
the head is badly set on.

Reject a horse with low withers or
that is very short.

A horse with a narrow or shallow
chest has not sufficient capacity for
his lungs; neither has one whose
fore legs stand close together.

A horse whose fore legs are not
straight will lack endurance.

A horse that is hght immediately
below the knee is weak.

Short pasterns make a horse un-
pleasant to ride, while one with long
pasterns is more subject to sprains.

A horse whose fetlocks turn in is
apt to cut or brush.

A horse whose hind legs are too
far behind will lack in propelling
power, as will also one that shows
much daylight between his thighs.

Medium sized feet are best. A
horse with very small or very large
feet should be rejected.

Reject a horse that is straight in
the shoulder and long from the point
of the shoulder to the upper part of
the forearm.

Reject a horse that crosses his
legs in walking or trotting. He will
be unsafe.

A good, sloping shoulder is‘an1im-
portant item in a riding horse.

Freedom, power to move along
easily is quite an item Ina young
horse. Action should always be
light, easy, free and straight.

Always reject a horse that does
not walk well. In nearly all cases
a horse that walks well will trot
well, but a horse may trot well and
yet be a poor walker.—St. Louis
Republic.

 

The Fife.

Tt is said by somo that we owo the
fife-—‘“‘ear piercing,’’ as Shakespeare
cal! sit—to the Swiss, and Sir James
Tu: cer, who busied himself in writ-
ing on military matters, names it!
the ‘‘Allemaine whistle.’’? In France
it was employed at least as early as
1534, in which year it was ordered
by Francis I that each band of 1,000
men was to have four drums and
two fifes.

A few years later in England we
find ‘‘drommes and ffyffes’”’ included
in the muster of London citizens.
Shakespeare refers to the musician,
not the instrument, when he speaks
in the ‘‘Merchant of Venice” of ‘the
vile squealing of the wry necked
fife.” An old writer observes, in
deed, that a ‘‘fyfe is a wry-neckt
musician, for he looks away from
his instrument.’’ About the reign of
James II the fife lost its popularity
foratime, Sir James Turner obsery-
ing, ‘‘With us any captain may keep
a fifer in his company and maintain
him, too, for no pay is allowed him
—perhaps just as much as he de-
serveth.’’—Cham bers’ Journal.
