NOTORINIS BIOII' ADER TAKEN Raleigh, Feb. 1—United States I Marshall Claudius Dockery has | recapturcd H. M.

He was brouglit to Raleigh and is' now in Wake county jail. There w^as arev/ard of $200 offered by the Depart ment of Justice. ; North Carolina CliiU Labor Com mittee. The following gentlemen make up the North Carolina Child La bor Committe 3*. ^ "Chas. B. Ay cock, Raleigh: J. W. Bailey, Raleigh; Jos. Eiount Cheshire, Raleigh; Robert F.- Campbell, Ashevilie; J. J.

These names, w'ithin them selves, give assurance that the Committee is engaged in work that is not only good, but need ful. It may be well, however, to explain to the State at large iust what this Committee feels should be done. The Committee is a sort of self- constituted guardian of the child hood of the State. There are de fects in the present child labor law which permit the employ ment in factories of children at ages when they should be either in school or out in the open air, and which also permits tiie employment of children at night. The North Carolina Child Labor Committee believes that the time has come when the State should say that her inno cent children should not be em ployed at work which will be hurtful on the one hand to their physical growth and which will prevent their mental and spirit ual development on the other; and especially that children should not be made or allowed to work during the night hours at the very time that nature has provided for their rest and growth. _ The Child Labor further bc- Heves that in addition to placin;:' upod the statute books the pro]> er sort of iaw.s fcji- the jn-otoe- tion of children, iTiac]n!;G]'y fihoulu be cij!t,od f'>i’ the ins;): c- lion of and Ji r that i.h\; la'\v ii: obeyed.

Central Loan & Trust Co., Mortgagee. Was White Man's Choice “Governor Cole Blease was not loaded upon South Carolina by the votes of the ignorant negro es; no negro, ignorant or other wise had any in the matter. He’s in Wade Hampton's chair because South Carolina white men—vot ing all by themselves in a Demo cratic State primary—put him there.” This is the very just comment of The Hartford Courant, and it is the severest thing that has been read by anybody about the situation of things in Lower Car olina. It d(,)ps not reflect so much' on Governor Blease as it reflects upon tl'iG people—the white peo ple—of South Carolina and if they do not squirm ’.^nder it they are indeed, lost to all sense of decency. But for their votes, Blease would not have been elect ed Governor of their State; but for their votes Blease will not be i‘e-elected. Talk about the pri mary system of choosing Candida tes for public office after the ex periences the people of South Carolina and the people of Ala bama have had with this device of the Devil; It is a long cold spell that nev er warms up. Stopped Those Paiiis Timberville, Miss.—Miss Ger trude Gutlin of Timberville wri tes; “I did not know anything could stop those v/omanly pains, from which I suffered for two ye:;i's, until I tried Cardui. I hau been troubled with various female ailments, but they were cured in a little while, thanks to Cardui,” Cardui is especially adapted for use by ailing women It relieves headache, backacke, dragging feeling, irregularily, nervousness, misery and woman ly weakness. It is safe. It is reliable. It does the work. Will you try it? Please do.

Me Elroy, in a letter from Clinton, writes;*' For six years, I was a’ sufferer from female troubles. I could not eat, and could not stand on my feet, without suffering great pain. I had lost hope. After using Cardui a w^eek, I began to improve. Now I feel better than in six years,” Fifty years of success in actual practice, is positive proof, furnished by those who have used it, that Cardui can always be relied ou for re lieving female weakness^ and di=iease.
