Little Early Risers. This Is due to
the fact that they tonio the liver In
stead of purging It. They never gripe
nor sicken, not even the most delicate
lady, and yet they are so certain In
results that no one who uses them Is
disappointed. They cure torpid liver,
constipation, biliousness, Jaundice,
headache, malaria and ward off pneu
monia and fevers.

stand. What is the symbol? We
are doing atonement for our harsh
ness lo those who have loved us lust
on earth, and whom we love best.
for we love them though they may
sleep betieatli tile sod. Most of Us
learn the beart-bieaking lessou too
late. Too lute to u'otie while they
live.
Will it be so with our Heavenly

Hun.'' Do we think our (rod hits no
feelinj;? If tve would reason it out
all the capacity we have for love,
for sorrow, tor tenderness we get le
gitimately from God our Futher.
Then, if little slights from our lei
low-men hurt us, und you w h" have
children, if it would butt voti to
have vour child studiously keen out
of your company, prefer to heed any
body s word but your own, if that
won lil hurt you, now mucii more
does it hurt our lleavenlv Father
lien we do nut want linn with us
und make every possible excuse for

hurt him more: Because we only
have u small portion ot His attri
butes, uud if we love und sorrow a
little, He lores ud soriows much,
bow much we ure not able to uuder-
faud.
But, is it necessury that I write
thus to people of today? Do we
have to tench people at this lute
hour w hut sort of a God we have?
Is it possible ut this advanced period,
when men's consciences have reach
ed the highest plane of enlighten
ment thut the world busjever known,
that we have to be continually dinn
ing into people's ears the character
istics of our God und King? Hasn't
He done enough for tbo children of
men, hasn't He proven what He is
yel? Is it possible that any should
fall short of tbe knowledge of the
sort of God with whom they have to
deal? For every peison must deal
with Him, whether it is the inten
tion or not. If he, refuse to deal
with God he must necessarily refute
to breathe. Is it possible that there
are any such, who take in from six
teen to twenty breaths a minute aud
know nothing of the dealer at whose
hands they receive them? es, it is
possible. I believe it would take
some of us millenniums of time to
!tro about God. By this do not
mean that '.here are those who do
not know there li t God. People
have long sine given tip debating
sncn a question, it Deionirs to i.ie

hks to say, -My dear madam you

And perhaps yon could give me

might seem exceedingly convenient

To be sure, I am not ignorant of

was that there was no Biich man us

of it is misleading. The fact thut
the literature of today is full of
liible teachings is a twofold reason
why one should get in touch with
the source of all this literature. Il
makes it all the more urgent thut we
read the liible, drink f r ourselves
ut the fountain insteud of lounging
in the fields of indifference while
others convey the draught to our
lips in nil manner of vessels, much
impaired in flavor, deprived of its
bubble and sparkle and coolness bv
the uiitiltediiess of the vessels uud
the distance it hus to be conveyed

(wlicy of some to tuke things second

and it goes without saying that they
think second hand, if indeed they
think at all.
Go to the fountain and drink for
yourself. Don't lie too lazy to get
the best. lie who geU a good thing
must work for it. This thought is
strongly brought out iu Governor
Ay cock's address in the last issue of
the Courier. I wish the great truth

Halcigh, Fcbiuuiy ti So fur tins
session ut the general assembly Ims
not been a very exciting one, but the
most nilcivstiiig part, of it is ahead
most of the mole important meas
ures to be definitely ucletl upon dur
ing tne present month, ami possibly
the first week iu March; for despite
some suggestions of un-''curly .id
joiii'iunent" the legislulureof lfin'iis
ipilte likely to sit its sixty days out,
us have till its predecessors working
under t in- present constitutional
limitation.
Among the important liie.isuiej
that claimed the attention of tli
luwniakeis during the week were:
J he bill reimbursing stute treas
lirer Lucy in the amount of :T4.bf,
the sum embezzled by Mil VA 11
Martin after Mr Lucy became ti'eus
in t Martin havinir been institu
tion cieiK in the tien.-ui ei 's ofli
ajipuintee of Mr Lucy's predecessor,
Treasurer Worth, who was made i
bankrupt bv .Martin's ollicial dis
hoi est v. This bill caused mure dis
cussion on the Honrs of b jth brunches
of the legislature, us well as more
lobby uud 'Tloak-ronin" argument,
v I ter passing the bill by u three
fourths majority, initl more, the
house turned around the next tinv
anil passed another bill repealing it.
In the meulltime, however, It had
passed the senate, and the lutter
body, after due deliberation, refused
to pass the bill repealing it by the
close vote of 1!) to IT, the live Ite
publicuii senators present and not
voting.
Tlie "bucket shop" bills, in which
the cotton grow ing as well its the
cotton selling interests, are niunifest-
ing much concern, was not disposed
of during this week. The Stewart
bill (piiuteil in these letters lust
week got a favorable report ami was
made a special order iu the house,
bui when tin- hour arrived .Mr
Mewait was detained from the enpi
tol by sickness. Mr Woodurd of
Vv ilsou I hereupon offered a subslitti'i
bill, and us a result the whole mat
ter was referred to the judiciary coin
mittee.
Manufacturers and others from
Charlotte and elsewhere will uppcui
before the committee before tl report
is made, which will be during the
present week.
The anti-jug law bill (designed to
bike the place of tne one just repeal
ed) has been made the speciul onlei
for next .Saturday, February I )

One thing is certain none of

is hope fur these stricken ones of
God's creatures who can not Bpenk
for themselves; for I huve too much
faith mill confidence in North C'aro
1 1 un manhood, in the heart uud con
sciences of the representatives of the
will of the people of Xorth i!rolinu,
to believe thut this legislature will
consider its work done until iide
iibite provision is made bv it to tuk
every poor, suffering, demented crea
ture out of every jail ill the stute
and to keep them out forever.
The way is open to thcin nuiv to
io this. 1 he iiiuiiugements of th
two white asylums ure agreed ii
their recommendations. Doctors

made cvplituutions und recoiiine nilii-

And these gentlemen can be trust
ed and ought to be trusted. They
are familiur with the situation: they
know the needs und necessities of
the case belter thun any one else.
I he State is ublo to make propel
provision, il is up to the good men
I this legislature, with charity in
their hearts and the sense of justice

I'mli r th- title "The Strength of
Uur Fathers," Dr John (' Kilgo,
president of Trinity College, presents
in the current number of the boulh
Atlantic Quarterly a remarkably
ilioiiglitf til discussion of un iuteiest-
ni" problem. He holds that the
generation of men who were born in
he first quarter of the nineteenth
entiiry were noted for eel lain uttali-
tics of body, mind and ehaiaeter,
I that they arc the greatest ot all
the geiieiations in modern times.
le contrasts them particularly with
be present city-Inn generation
ml concludes that the latter is los-
ug naturalness. With rare grace of
pre.Miioii Dr Kilg says:
"All this means that, the stulwait
nibiis of iinttii'o, und th- serious ad
uoiiiii'iiis of nature, niv being lost
u the character of men. 'The play
ike met hods' of the nurserv have

One day last week, a guv went in

O. W. did his best for the newcomer,

thai chap hadn't suffered the hard

"It was O. W.'s time, and he made j
a hard hit. He just drew himself
up, assumed a dignified mood, aril
looked t e irate guest square in the
face and said, iu a calm, deliberate
tone: 'Well niv friend, I have been j
keeping hotel for 200 years, and
never lost a guest from freezing.
I'll do the best I can for you.'
