Recently when the House of Representatives voted an addition al $75,000,000 for pensioning about all who sympathised with the north during the great war, tht rtmara were full of com ments on the 4 Tension Steal," "Back Grab," etc , yet Congress claims the right to do saoh a thing if the members thereof were so inclined, regardless of the wishes of the people. The peo ple, through the press, howeTer, were not long in letting it be known that, notwithstanding the so-called rights of Congress to en- aot such a measure, they were most emphatically opposed to what was openly and very-aptly called a "steal." ust as in the present new court house propo sition, the people consider that their lights are being infringed upon, money is to be taken out ot their pockets and. spent for a eause that they object to and, no matter how little the amount taken from an individual, eaobrfeel just like a man does when a pick pocket has taken his purse or watoh. His permission is . not asked, he is ;not allowed to say what amount shall be taken and he has no voice in sajing how his money is to be used. When such legislation can be forced upon a protesting community there is certainly little of value left in our so-called self-governing rights, and the official has gotten as far. from the tenents of true Democracy as the east is from the west. Congress either saw the justice in the peoples' protests or feared their wrath, and has, for the time at least, dropped the intended steal, but our great county commissioners, clothed, not in an official trust for the people, like congress and other legislative bodies, but in a "divine right" to rule as pleases them, do not intend to give heed to the almost unanimous voice of our people to either tlx up the present building in an appropri ate manner, or if a new bnilding is to be considered, submit the matter to a vote of the people at the coming election. If congress oan listen to the wish of the peo ple it seems passing strange, that our Big, $2500 per year, county oomminioners cannot condescend to also give heed to the burden bearers' right . But they will not, and it therefore necessary 1 or the people first, in order to preserve their rights and second ly, to blook what may also may be termed "The OourT House Steal," to take up the matter in a systematic manner, by proper and effeotual methods, and de mand the right to be heard or have the law giving the commis sioners suoh arbitrary powers re pealed This will necessitate taking the matter into court to secure an injunction restraihg the commissioners until the legisla ture meets, and' in the mean time sleot men to the legislature who will see that omr rights are restored by the repeal of the iniauituous law. This action should be : taken without delay ind itshonld be settled thorough ly, once for all.

Mine is a cabbage, potato aud livestock country, and the farm ers are modern in everything in the machinery line. - I differ with I. Q Rrss, of Walnut Cove, N. U., about the mowing maohine being the best tool on the arm. Of course, it is a "good labor saving tool, but the farmer in this part of the country keeps a nice flock of sheep and they keep down the weeds and keep the fence-rows clear, and enrioh the soil better than any other animal, . and are the least expense.

A WOMAN'S CKOD jLOOKS Depend oh her general health and freedom from pain. - Many a woman looks old before her time because of those irregularities wnioh are essentially feminine. Starting from early womanhood, she suffers from frequently recurring derangements that upset her womanly .health. If she be beautiful she grows into that mellow age without wrinkles and crowfeet about the eyes or the blue circle underneath. It is invariably the rule that such women, suffer little, or not at all, from womanly derangements which sap the health and leave in the face the tell-tale story of pain and suffering. Dr.R.V. Pierce,the famous specialist in the diseases of women, found a prescription in his early practice that soothed the organism, peculiar to woman . hood oiled the machinery, as it were, of the humarr system and helped the woman to past those painful periods that scar-lined and, aged her face.
