K. C, nnoar tbe act of Cen res ot March SraV 7X1. Salisbury, N. G.. May 9, 1917 Why is it the county of Kowau has to borrow money to oteei its expenses? The taxpayer; are certainly being pushed to Xhk limit. It may be the present board is not entirely to blame; for this conditionbut it certainly seems strange, since public money is being banded out to almost every little committee that asks for it, the county finds it necet sary to borrow money for running expenses.- ANCIENT VS. MODERN BAR BARISM. In certain quarters of all large cities will be found old structures which are of little value; which should be condemned as a fire menace. They can be purchased with very little money and easily insured over their value and. of. f er a ready inducement to the incendiary. If boards of healfi and building inspection departs meats were active in the com demnation of such buildings, and not at times subservient to politi cal influence, they would have removed the couses of many; fires. The Montreal Chronicle. We also have laws to establi , drainage districts, street Davi districts, segregation districts, and other schemes to torse people who do not wish or eannot afford to do what their wello do neighbors, or some .explting syndicate, may desire. In; other words no distinction is made be tween saint and sinner, between the rich and poor. Someawe are m'ade for a specific pu i$bse, i. e.r To facilitate the march of Progress. If the aged or idpijrv fihdctheir ' income ineofficient to tear away and erect anew jiay their quoto toward street build ing, creek draining or meeting other requirements of our mod ern and exacting laws, then thi&y must be made to do so. If it means the cutting off of their income of the sale of their prop erty to pay the expenses incur ed, as is evidenced by property sales now taking place in ; ail parts of the state, banishment from the family homestead, or removal to the poor bouse, it matters not, for you know Prog ress is absolutely heartless, can not possibly show any favoritism, except to corporations, big bunches of voters and to the rich. In short if the poor and indisposed cannot keep up with the procession and the pace set by Progress, we will not only cal them untacful old fogies, rea' tionaries, etc, but we wUl make a law to force them to do so. Such is modern barbarism History tells us that in various ' parts of the earth not only in the dim and dismal past, but in dark, est Africa today they also have laws or customs to suit the occa sion. It is thus: If W tribe, comparable with - our modern: districts, should decide: to move from one location to another, Progress must not be hampered, so if there be sick, aged, or crip, pies among them who catindt keep up with the tribe a ,:i$ji wanderings, canuot keep upiil ithe pace set by their fieibore and Progress, then, as. ia dona right here today, they must 'be made to take the consequences;; If it means the taking of their lives, it matters not. Se, a big kind-hearted, beneficient, half-": naked, strong-armed gentleman! goes back with a nice little): smoo the ten-pound atone neatly tied to a two-foot piece of beauti fully polishedShickory wood and gently indents thf skufl of t4e beneficiary , drags htm, or her, J off to the bushes - tdViurmah a nice morsel los the hxgbrj rulturesand proudly returns tb his pkeferith the tribe; Ton 3e barbarism has no fef or for the poor and tb helpless, might" Is' right and the devil for the hind ermost.

"Last winter when my little boy had the whooping cough gave him Chamberlains, Cough Hemedy," writes Mrs. JB Rob erts, East St Louis, 111. It kept his cough loose and relieved him of those dreadful coughing spells.

"One year ago I was vwy tick sad I nffered with pains in iny nd and back until I nearly went crasy. I went to different doctors and they all laid I had female trouble and would not get any relief until I would be operated on. I had suffered forfour years before this time, but I kept get tingwone the more medicine I took. Every month since I ws a young girl I had suffered with cramps m my sides at penous and was sever regular, I saw yourtdvertise mect in the newspaper and the picture of a Woman who had been saved from an operation and this picture was im pressed on my mind. The doctor had given me only two more days to make up my mind so I sent my husband to the drug store at once for a bottle of Lydia i .
