S. * The Landmark has heretofore referred to the unusually largo number of deaths from drowi - ing in the State this summer, j A noticeable feature of these' fatalities is that nine tenths of them have occurred on Sunday j while the victims were engaged iu bathing. Bathing of itself is not a violation of the Sabbath, but persons who go swintmiig in streams or ponds 011 the Lord's Day generally go fal si ort aud not for the purpose of cleansing their bodies. We are net saying that those who lose their lives on such occasions are victims of the Almighty's wrath, but the fact that so many deaths have occurred among Sunday swimming parties causes one to revert to the law as liad down in Exodus 8-11: "Remember the Sabath day to keep it holy. Six days shall thou labor and do all thy work : But the seventh day is the Sabhathjof t'le Lord thy Cod : in it tlnu shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thv maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor the stranger that is within thy gates. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day : wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath dav, and hallowed it." —Statesvi.'e Landmark. DYSENTERY Ct'RET) \\ ITIIOUT THE AID OF A DOCTOR. "I am just up from a hard spell of the flux" (dysentery) says Mr. T. A. Tinner, a well known merchant of Drummond Tenn. "I used one bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and was cured without having a doctor. I consider it the best cholera medicine in the world." There is no need of employing a doctor when this remedy is used, for 110 doctor can pre scribe a better remedy for bowel complaint in any form either for children or adults.

Y sterday a boy went to the postofiice and got the C. W. Polvogt Go's mail. While walking along the street the boy dropped a letter and turned around to pick it up whereupon a white man beat him to the letter and picked it up. It was addressed to Mr. J. C. Loftin onWf Mr. Polvogt's clerks, and tbe boy tried to get the man to give him the letter but he re fused 10 do it and started to open the letter. The boy told him not to open it but the man tore otf the end of the envelope and pulled out a check for a considerable sum of money. The boy could not induce the man to give up the letter, so he went on to the store and told Mr. Loftin the circumstances. Presently in came the man with ! the letter. Stepping up to Mr. ! Loftin ho said : "1 am the Rev. from Bertie county. I'm an honest man. I found a letter and check belonging to you, and I demand a reward for it ." Mr. Loftin took the letter and the roasting he gave the so-call ed preacher was done in lan guage never heard in a Bertie Sunday school. The man brat a hasty retreat and was glad to get "out without a re ward. He was lucky not to have been seized by a police ! man, and he may vet fall into the hands of the law for open ing a letter which he knew was not for him. —Wilminton Mes senger 6th, NOT OVER- WISH. There is an old allegorical picture of a girl scared at a grass-hopper, but in the act of heedlessly treading on a snake. This is parallelled by the man who spends a large sum of mon ey building a cyclone cellar, but ' neglects to provide his family with a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea 1 Remedy as a safegard against bowel complaints, whose vic tims outnumber those of the cyclone a hundred to one. This remedy is everywhere recog nized as the most prompt and reliable medicine in use for these diseases. For sale by Hood fc Grantham. ♦ Forces to Guide Our Nation.

SULPHUR BATHS AT IIOMS Hancock's Liquid Sulphur baths are superior to those ol the most celebrated sulphur springs, having the additional advantage of being made any ■ desired strength.

It never fails to cure eczema and all blood and skin diseases. Ask your druggist' for a book on Liquid Sulphur. For Sale bj ■g Hood & Grantham. Square and Round Sale Fight. There is now going on in cer tain southern State-., particu larly in Georgia and Alabama, a most interesting light between the old square bale ginners and the round bale people. Or, to bs more exact, the contest is be tween the compress companies aud the big corporation con trolling the round-bale press. Inasmuch as the latter pro cess of baling cotton is supposed to do away with compressing, the compress companies of the South would, naturally, be ren dered valueless, should the round bale presses come into general use. Hence, it is a light to the finish, and some powerful factors and strong points of advantage are array ed on both sides. A meeting of the square bale gitineus of Georgia and Alaba ma held in Macon yesterday re news interest in this contest, and develops at least a few of the plans by which the square bale people propose to resist the efforts of the round bale people to gain supremacy. With the merits of this fight The Jou n l h s nothing to do —for there are strong argu ments in favor of each side of it —but the situation is, at least, interesting and well worth watching. The Georgia Cen tral railroad, which road tra verses or is in touch with most of the cotton-growing sections of Georgia and Alabama, was already the owner of numerous large compi'essea iu these two State, and it naturally behooved it to resist to the uttermost the aggressions of the round bale people. This it has sought toj Jo by securing, either through : lease or purchase, other com- j press properties, with the result j that it now controls a majority, i if dot practically all, of those located in its territory. But it lias not stopped there. Larger and better square bale ginneries liave been established wherever leemed necessary. The round bale people on the other hand, have put in their *ins and presses wherever pos sible to do so, and thus the two ire lined up for the titfht, both >ackod by practically unlimited capital and with any amount of j drains and energy to carry on j the contest. The fight really began in ?arnestlast season, but several pears may be necessay for it to develop its most interesting phase. What the outcome will oe, it is really difficult to pre dict. One side has the advan tage of improved methods, per iaps, but is handicapped by an jvident purpose to create a mo nopoly for itself, not only in Handling, but in marketing the South's great staple crop. The other side may be considered somewhat at a disadvantage m oeing tied down to old methods out many hold that this is off set by the fact that it attempts 10 monopoly, but leaves the farmer free to gin and sell his ;otton as he pleases. A good leal can be said iu favor of both sides, but it is a matter that necessarily, tho farmer will liave to settle for himself as the exigencies of his individual case may require.—Atlanta Journal.] Maitland, Fla., October 10th, 1901.

Don't buy food that has been in cold storage if you can secure fresh food ; sometimes turkeys and fish are kept frozen for years. All fresh meat that has been frozen loses its firmness and flavor when allowed tc thaw, which is necessary before cooking. Firm fish and fresh meat are essential to good and wholesome living. You will ■;ee offered for sale smelts and green smelts, and many house keepers do not know the differ ence, which is just this : Green -melts are freshly caught; -melts not bearing this label arc frozen. The frozen ones become tasteless and flabby when jooked. Don't buy foreign fresh Fruits or vegatables when the natives are plentiful. Don't put celery in the re frigerator just as it comes from he market; wrap it in a wet doth, then in a paper, and lay L on the ice until needed. Don't depend upon extra heat vhen you want water to boil piickly ; but add a little salt to the water and watch the grati fying results. Don't throw any thing away >ecause it is too salty; add Drown sugar until it is just right. —Womau's Home Com panion.
