DEATH OF MRS. MILLIKAN Mrs. Mildred M. Millikan, widow of Uacob Millikan, deceased, died at her Jhome in Trinity township, September 29th. 1915 aed 80 years, seven imonths and fifteen days. She had been in declining health for sometime, and her death was not a surprise so her friends. The deceased was a con sistent member of Mt. Vernon M. E church and was one of the charter 1 members. It has been the pleasure af the writer to have, kn.wn the deceased since early childhood, haviag been a pupil of hex's when a little boy, and for many years kave often times vis ited her in her home, and always re ceived the same motherly greetings. Her life has been a benediction to me. The last time it was my privilege to meet her, she spoke of the ead being sear, and was patiently waiting the call of her Master. Indeed a' Mother in Israel has beea takes. She leaves three children, two married daughters and one son not married, and many friends. We wMl greatly miss her, bat we believe she has joined that in numerable multitude "who came out -of great tribulation and washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb." Funeral services over the remains were conducted from the M. E. church by Rev. E. N. Crowder and the re mains interred in Hopewell cemetery in the presence of many friends and relatives. Now, weep not children but trust ia God and walk in the way mother trod, then when to the Gata of Heaven you come, sue will stand with the angels to welcome you home. W. N. E.

POYERTY'S STATUS While medical science win hm-iiiw fait in line with the assertion of the Chicago minister that poverty is a disease it will heartily, we feet sure. agree ' nath the' idea that poverty breeds disease. Poverty is not a crime that ia ivi. erally not a crime against the one feeling its blight; neither need it be aithy state, because the body can kept clean under the moat trv. ing circumstances, but oovertv breads disease in crowded conditions, where- four or five persons. oerhaiis. hud dle in one room, breathing the same air; in poorly aurtured bodies, espe cially amonff the childraa. and in the hardships of exposure. While poverty is not a disease it Woes provide a fertile field for such. ine crime of povertar somatimea a'ee against the shiftless or debauched fcther but it more often is chargeable te same set of pesple guilty of op pression, or another sat that withhold philanthropy, or soeiety in general inai Deoomes oDiiv:ous to surround ings and does little to remedy condi tions that gnaw at the mind and emaciate the body.

See if tongue is coated; this is a sure sign its little stomach, liver and bowels are. clogged with sour waste. When listless, pale, feverish, full of cold, breatn bad, throat sore, doesn t eat, sleep or act naturally, has stom ach-ache, indigestion, diarrhoea, give a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs," and in a few hours all the foul waste, the sour bile and fermenting rood passes out oi the bowels and you nave a well and playful child again, Children love this harmless "fruit laxative," and mothers can rest easy after giving it, because it never fails to make their "insides" clean and sweet. Keep it handy. Mother! A little given today saves a sick child tomor row, but get the genuine. Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of " Cali fornia SvruD of Fiffs." which has di rections for babies, children of all ages and for srrown-ups plainly on the bot tie. Remember there are counterfeits sold here, so surely look and see that yours is made by the "California Fig Syrup Company." Hand back with contempt any other fig syrup. HORSES BOUGHT FOR THE EU ROPEAN WAR As was natural to expect, increased orders for horses have been placed in this country. The largest order re ceived in the United States since the European war began was recently filed by the French Government. This or der was for 20,000 horses, and brings the total number bought by France from this country up to 50,000. To Italy 8,060 horses have been shipped and 11,500 more have been ordered The British Government has purchas ed 30,000 horses, and has a standing order for 1,200 a week. To The Public.

WATERING TROUGHS For the convenience of the coaatry people who come to town, watering troughs shoald be located at different nlacea in the town. ' An investigation encloses the fact that Asheboro is the only town in North Carolina with water works that has not watering troughs. The Courier has often thought of catting attention to this important matter, but has refrained from doing so, because of the fact that the call ing of attention to such maHers is sometimes misunderstood as an un necessary criticism. If the matter is not attended to promptly, it may be well for the Civic League, Woman's Club, or some person who has proper regard or a humane disposition toward beasts of burden that cannot speak for themselves, to look into the mat ter.

All persons having claims against said estate are notified to present them to the undersigned, duly verified, on or before the 28th day of August, 1916, or this notice will be pleaded in bar of their recovery; and all persons owing said estate will come forward and make Immediate settlement. This 23rd day of August, 1915. GEO.; H. PARKS, Administrator, T. B. Parks, deceased: THE EFFECT OF "LIQUID FIRE" The effect of "liquid fire" was sain by an eyewitness to be much worse at short range than that of asphyxiat ing gases, but it is easier to find shel ter ft-om it. The flames carry only a relatively short distance and cannot reach a long way eff, aa is often the case with poisonous gases. The flame is yellow, with a blue nucleus, and is directed tkroagh a powerful air jet. It springs from the ground level and expands into a rearing wave of fire. The flame is said to be very like that of the coromm Bunsen burner of the laboratory, only it is yeliewer. The pressure of the air or other gas used to force the inflammable liquid through the jet must be enormous in view of the volume and fury of' the flame. Many of the victims died sim ply from suffocation caused by the in tense heat that rolled forward in front of the flames, which did not toach them. BATHING SUITS Hob. Thomas M. Waller, one-time governor of Connecticatt, is up in arms over the propensity of bathers at mew ixuiaon a uoean Beacd to wear one-pieae batting suits. He says men aad women do it, and at times ke kas been obliged to walk away from Wie keack to hide his mortification. The same question, comes up in a modified form each year at Chicgo's public beaches. Does this mean that wemen are going to throw off the shackles of bathing skirts and demand the free dom of the lower extremities which man has so long enjoyed? Perhaps! At any rate, the authorities each year are finding it harder to enforce the rule new obtaining at most beaches that women wear skirts. Atlantic City demands that the .skirtsjbe at least three inches above the knees, and keeps policemen with tape measures at the beaches to see the rule is ob served. And the women, some of them, object even to that length of skirt. Mayor Thompson, of Chicago, repeal ed the rule that women shouldn't be allowed to go bathing without stock ing., and now hundreds of them may be seen any afternoon spiring in the waves minus the usual covering. Eu ropean beaches have always allowed women to wear the one-piece bathing suit, and a well-known woman reform er demanded that the men be forced to cover up in this country and the women be given whatever freedom they might find in the suits men are now wearing. Regulations are the ex pression of the community's sense of propriety at the time they were made Bat when the great mass of humanity finds these regulations becoming irk some and not in conformity with ad vanced matters, they promptly de mand that violations be winked at and eventually the regulations are relegat ed to the jar with the blue laws. The Next Best Thing to the Forest for Colds ia Pine Dr. Bell's Pine-Tar-Honey which goes to the very root of cold troubles. It clears the throat and gives relief from that clogged and stuffed feeling. The pines have ever been the friend of man in driving away colds. More over, the pine-honey qualities are pe culiarly effective in fighting children's colds. Remember that a cold broken at the start greatly removes the pos- aioruiy oi complications, zoc. GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR BEET SUGAR Government experts say that North Carolina has unusual advantage for the production of sugar beets. Indi cations are that the sugar beet in dustry is going to be one of the most important ia the nation when the proper methods of gioacing and dia posing of the by-products are ascer tained. When well enough developed Uncle Sam, it is said, will be made to pro duce all the sugar he needs, whilo the farmers will be given a naw source of revenue. This cauntry up to the past two years had been receiving great quan tities of beet sugar from Germany. Practically all of this has beea cut off, for during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1915, the imports from Ger maay of beet sugar were but 255,100 pounds. In 1914 we received 1,459, 796 pounds, and in 1913 the great quantity of 168,807,928 pounds. ' The United States could produce all the sugar it needs and a large quan tity to export if the areas adapted to the growth should be utilized. At present approximately four-fifths of the sugar used in the United States comes from outside. Biliousness and Constipation. It is certainly surprising that any woman win enaure tne miserable feelings caused by biliousness and constipation, when relief is so easily had and at so little expense. Mrs. Chas. Peck, Gates, N. Y.. writes: "About a year ago I used twa bottles of Chamberlain's Tablets and they cured me or biliousness and constipa tion and biliousness, r or sale by an dealers.
