This* was done and Mr. Gurley paid the premiums for some six years aud then let the policy lapse. Since his death Mr. McGee asked the heirs several times to let him see the policy, but they thinking that it was worthless ignored the request. After be ing asked several times they fi nally produced the papers and Mr. McGee discovered that the extended feature of the policy was still in force and that it was worth its full face value of $l,OOO. The policy was taken out in the Mutual Benefit of Newark, N. J., while Mr. McGee was working for that company, and will be paid as soon as the proofs of death can be forward ed to the general office of the company. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

Pearsall, j one of the school committeemen ] of white District, No. 2, Rocky Point, was fixing a pump on • the premises, he discovered a j thin skim of oil on the water as ] it came up and quite a strong i odor of oil. After pumping several buckets off, the scent continued. On yesterday parties visiting the place found the same condi- . tions to exist. To-day the water is so impregnated with oil that the teacher and pupils ' will not drink it. ( The pump is only eighteen , feet in the ground, and was ex- ; tremely difficult to get to that depth. ( Indications are decidedly more pronounced to-day than on Saturday. Twenty years ago the late Major W. L. Young and your correspondent made the first announcement to the world of the discovery of phosphatic nodules in eastern North Caro lina. The scientists pooh poohed the idea. The late state geologist went so far as to say that "a wheelbarrow would hold all in North Carolina." Now we see what we see. The world do move.—Wilmington Messenger. II Girdle* tbe Globe.

Among the many things we 1 would like to know, but never will know, is what kind of fel- 1 low the "prodigal son" turned 1 out to be. He went away from 1 home a dude, that prodigal boy did, and he came back a tramp. We have often wondered if he settled down; and made some thing of himself after his wild ' oat sowing, or if he was always sitting about the prem-j ises blowing to his older broth-[ er and to the hired men what a 1 "high roller" he was when liej \va9 off among the girls spend- ' ing his dady's money and play- 1 ing the fool generally. We would like to know if that prod igal boy's father was proud of him after he returned and thought that he was worth the ! good clothes and the calf killed for him, or if the boy was so 1 trifling and no good generally , that the old gentleman would I have been a great deal better off if he had killed the prodigal j and raised the calf. —Monroe Enquirer. r We expect the Enquirer man ] will not find any one to rise up and give him the information he is seeking. He is asking too many questions. One of tne most important classes of workers in the world j is the Sunday school teacher. He has to do with the young j and plastic hearts of the future ] men and women of the community, to unfold the instrumentality of the Scriptures, whereby their hearts altogether bent by nature to evil are renewed and set right and made better day by day. It i 9 not hearing lessons that ac complishes this glorious end, but it is teaching them. The crying need of our Sunday schools is seen at this point. There is wide-spread need of men and women who can truth fully say they are teachers and not mere hearers of recitations. Study, prayer, the recognition of the presence and power of the Holy Scriptures to make the World the effectnal means of convincing and converting sinners and building them up up in holiness and faith unto salvation is needfd to do the grand things possible to this workerßobesonian. A Fircww'a Close CalL "I stuck to my engine, although every joint ached, every nerve was racked with pain," writes C. W. Bellamy, a locomotive fireman, of Burlington, lowa.

"And he comes out ahead, I a suppose?" F "Every time ; and he has al- 1 ways lied." "How did you come to have 3 dealings with him in the first place?" "That's what I've been think- s ing. You see he promised to , E make a man of me, but he made 1 me a beast. Then he said he * would brace me up, but he has ® made me go staggering around, * and then threw me into the 1 ditch. He said I must drink e to be social. Then he made me quarrel with my best friends, j 1 and to be the laughing-stock of my enemies. He gave me a j 1 black eye and a broken nose. Then I drank for the good of E my health. He ruined the lit- * tie I had, and left roe 'sick as a dog.'" c "Of course." c "He said he would warm me v up ; and I was soon nearly fro- f zen to death. He said he would * study my nerves, but instead he gave me delirium tremens. He said he would give me great strength, and he made me help less." d "To be sure." c "He promised me courage." "Then what followed?" "Then he made me a coward, € for I beat my sick wife and N kicked my little child. He said • he would brighten my wits, but 1 instead he made me act like a 1 fool, and talk like an idiot. He 1 promised to make a gentleman of me, but he made me a tramp." " i NIGHT WAS HER TERROR. } "I would cough nearly all night long," writes Mrs. Chas. ' Applegate, of Alexandria, Ind., ' "and could hardly get any J sleep. I had consumption so bad that if 'I walked a block I would cough frightfully and j spit blood, but, when all other ; medicines failed, three $l.OO 1 bottles of Dr. King's New Dis covery wholly cured me and I gained 68 pounds."

This may be true, but since his deliberate net of taking a kinky-headed segro into the White House at> his guest, the South camiot say they are proud of him. The Richmond Di« patch says : "With many qualities that are j^pod—with some, possibly, that are gr at—Mr. Roosevelt is a negrophilist. ' While Governor of New York he invited a ntgro (who, on ac count of race prejudice, could not obtain accommodations at any hotel) to be his guet-t at the Executive Mansion, and, it is said, gave him the best room in the house. "Night before last the Presi dent had Professor Booker T. Washington to dine with him at the White House. That was a deliberate act, taken under no alleged pressure of necessity, as in the Albany case, and may be taken as outlining his policy towards the negro as a factor in Washington society. We say "Washington society," rather' than "American society," be cause the former, on account of its political atmosphere is much more "advanced" in such mat ters than that of any other American city of which we know anything. The President having invited Booker T. Wash ington to his table, residents of Washington of less conspicuous standing may be expected to do likewise. And if they invite him, they may invite lesser lights—colored lights. "When Mr. Cleveland was President, he received Fred Douglass at some of hi 9 public entertainments —• 4 functions," socalled—but we do not remem ber that Fred was singled out for the distinguished honor of dining with the President, as Booker Washington has been. "We do not like Mr. Roose velt's negrophilism at all, and are sorry to see him seeking op portunities to indulge in it. He is reported to have rejoiced that negro children were going to school with his children at Oys ter Bay. But then, it may be said, too, that he has more rea sons than the average white man to be fond of negroes, since it was a negro regiment that saved the Rough Riders from decimation at San Juan Hill. And but for San Juan Hill, it is quite unlikely that Mr. Roos evelt would be President today. "Booker Washington is said to have been very influential with the President in having Judge Jones put upon the Federal bench in Alabama, ahd we are now fully prepared to believe that statement. "With our long-matured views on tt e subject of social inter course between blacks and whites, the least we can say now is that we deplore the Pres ident's taste? and we distrust his wisdom." MOTHER'S WORM SYRUP. Best worm medicine. Chil dren like it so well they eat it on bread. There is an amazing differ ence sometimes between the valuation of property when listed for taxation and when re ported to a mercantile agency as a basis for credit. The mos astonishing difference in sucl. valuations recently came to tin knowledge of this writer. A certain corporation recently or ganized in this State reportrf; its property to a mercantile agency as being worth $600,00 and yet this same property is assessed for taxation at a val uation of $38,000. —Chatham Record. Comment is unnecessary. The Landmark recently ex pressed the opinion that all tax returns should be published. The more we think about it the more we are convinced that if the law required the publica tion of all tax returns once a year there would be a mighty rattling of dry bones among the ! Ananiases who keep back a part. The pious gentlemen who swear they are worth practically nothing at tax-list ing time, but who swear they are worth large sums to obtain ' good ratings in commercial ! agencies, would find themselves exposed.

This store is situated in a valley about nine miles from the nearest railway sta tion and about twenty-five miles from the nearest town. Mr. Larson says: "I am favored with the custom «f farmers within a radius of thirty mile*, to many of whom I have sup- ~ plied Chamberlain's remedies.) All testify to their value in a household where a doctor's ad vice is almost out of the ques tion. Within one mile of my store the population is perhaps sixty. Of the>e, within the past twelve months, n«» less than fourteen have b*>en abso lutely cured by Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. This must surely be a record."
