{f^:- THE SHOWS *i'0 BE AT THE FAIR. 'Hi* Southerner, Tarboro, last week published the Following Article About tbe Shows Coming to Our Pair. The Liberty Show that is being giv en this week is having large crowds in attendance each night, and a most orderly ones. A^l seem to enjoy the many attractions, all the shows being well attended and we have heard noth ing but praise in regard to the entire Liberty Shows. The Free act that is being given by Mat Gay is truly a sensation. There have been many high divers but the dive given by Mr. Gay is an ^lipse to all others, as he divers backwards from the tallest lad der eyer used here by any high diver. He turns two backward somersalts in to a tank of water but you rfeet in depth. The dog and pony show last night had had no difficulty in getting their share of the business at each per formance," their big tent v»-as well- filled to its capacity, and the clever antics of the well-trained animals met the approval of all Fun worth the price can be had at this show,, watching the bucking mule which the management offers ten dollars for anyone to ride for ten seconds, hut judging from those who have tried, no money will be lost in this manner. The Caddis Show is also worthy. Thi.s attraction is called the show beautiful and is very deserving of the title. In this tent a beautiful illusion is shown and the sweet singing of Miss Ruth Gilpin makes the show e.'C- ceptionally pleasing. The old planta tion is a real fun show and all who attend it will have a big laugh. Ha- 'a leb, tbe wonderful horse, also gives a very good performance and one that should not be missed by any one. The big TOotor-drome is a saucer shape track with an incline of 70 degrees wfeers dared evils do all kinds of tricks and fancy riding on motor cy cles at the speed of a mile a mi.>iute. Anyone looking for a reals thrill should not miss seeing this attraction. Frederick Garganis, Italian band is attracting large crowds to the down town concerts and all enjoy the good music and the singing of Miss Ruth Gilpiii, who is easily the feature of th« concerts. She has a beautiful voice and receives many pi'aises from *!l who hear her.

(t appears from the Government re|>ort that while the saviors of the cotton farmers are eating up news- !»p«r space, there are thousands of farmers who are doing the most ef fective sort of holding and saying nothing about it. They are holding it from the gin. Cotton i.s always sisfely held before it gets to the gin. it is not so safe after it leaves the gin. —O Cupid's Advertisement. Cupid is a bu.sy elf. You can see this for yourself.

O My Lord Jupiter knows how to gilc the pill.—-Moliei'e. The Furnace, the G«lf and the Indi vidual. More than a ttoasand prisoners in the Eastern Pei^tentiary feigned a petition favoring a state prohibitory law in Pennsylvania. Many of ihe signers declared that drink was the cai:se of their downfall. This of it self is not remarkable except as it involves a substitute for personal re sponsibility. When Moses returned from tlia mountain he was shocked to find his followers, led by his brother, Aaron, worshipping an idolatrous calf of'gold. He was so provoked that in his an ger he dropped the tabled of the law so hard that they broke in pieces. Aaron explained that he put the jjw- di'y of the tribe in the furnace and out came the golden , calf. Nobody was to blame. It was the fault of the furnace. 'This is the liistory of ■ ong doing. Nobody is to blame. The saloon, the. brotheli envii-onniont, social conditions, heredity and iijsti- tutions—something other than one’s self—is the cause of the downfall. Personal responsibiU'.y is bitter .inedicine for the Irunsgressor, and few take it willingly. It is easier to point to an impersonal situation. Drink has been the Occasion of crime and sorrow, but drink is not to blame. The responsibility is man’s. Neither statistics nor coddling can take tho place of the individuals knowledge of right and wrong. It does not follow that the destruction of the furnace in dictates a change in the moral cowards who hide behind it.—Philadelphia Ledger. O Invigorating to the Pale and Sickly 'Th?

Iowa City, la., Sept. 13.—Iowa Un iversity surgeons have received a strange request to examine the brain of a negro child which died suddenly and peculiarly in » South Dakota town. The X-ray skiagraph of the brain shows four needles, driven to almost their full length in the brain. The presence of the needles, however, does not explain tbe little one’s death, as the needles wre evidently in tlie brain several years before it died and the symptoms had nothing in common with those that death from needle thrusts would cause. Yet to explain away four needles, resting several years in a living brain, is a diffi>'ult task. O There’s no Middle Way Say« Rudyard Kipling. London, Sept- 8.—1.15 A. M.— “There is no middle way in this war," Rudyard Kikling declared at a mass meeting last night at Brighton. “It is not conceivable that we should faii, for if we fail the lights of freedom go out over the whole world. ■‘The may glimmer for a little in the western hemisphere but a Germ any dominating half the world by sea and land will most certainly extingu ish them in every quarter. “Through no fait nor wi.sh of ours we are at war with Germany, the pow er which for the last 20 years, has de voted itself to organizing and pre paring for this war; the power which is now fighting to conquer the civilized world. “We must have men and men nnd men if w'e, with our allies, are to check the onrush of organized barbar- ism. Have no illusions. We are deal ing with a strong and magnificently equipped anemy whose at’owed aim !.■? our complete destruction. “If you assume for an instai^ lhat that attack will be successful, Eng land will not be reduced as some peo ple say, to the rank of a second rate power, but we shall cease to exist an a nation. We shall become an outly ing province of Germany to be ad ministered with what severity German safety and interest require.” 0 With Roger Sullivan in the senate, what will Mr. Bryan do about the I!- linois pstronage that must come through his department? Income Tax IncreWM Haa Bwn Agreed Washington, .Sept. 8,—An income tax increase of- one-half of one per cent, and a reduction of the minimum exemption from $3,000 to |2,000 and the maximum emption from $4,000 to $3,000 were agreed ott tentatively to day by Democratic members of rhe W'ays ana Means Committee, who are framing the emergency revenue bill to raise ?100,000,000. It is estimat ed that the proposed changes would produce ?35,000,000 annually. In deciding on income tax increases the committee corisider^ the facS that, revenue from this sources wo.ild not be available until next July, nut the opinion was general that increas ed revenue from other sources would meet any immediate defiiSit. Under the proposed changes the m- come .tax would be one and one-half per cent, on incomes of single persons in excess of $2,000 and the same on married persons in 'excess of $3,000. In addition to one-half per cent, in creases would be added pro rata in accordance with the increased sur taxes on incomes in excess of $’JO,'JOO. The conmiittee agreed also that the increased tax on beer and malt liquors should be fixed at 50 cents a barrel, bringing in $35,000,000. On domestic wines a tax of 20 cents a gallon will raise $10,000,000. Distilled spirits will escape an extra tax, but it was decid ed to tax rectified spirits two cents a gallon, realizing $2,000,030. The committee is said to have agreed tentatively on a tax on rail road freight in iieu of a tax on rail- road tickets. Such a tax would be collected by the railroads and easily administered. The rate proposed, it was reported, was two per cent. At the conclusion of an all day coa- ference it was agreed not to tax to bacco products, automobiles, gasoline, amusement tickets, magazines and many other articles and commodities proposed, the increa.sed income tax averting the necessity of levying against these articles. No official an nouncement of the committee’s action was made, P.epresentat»ve Underwood the chairman, stating that the pro gram was subject to change. WitKWvor Yim Need * Qeo««!

Doctors in all parts of the country have been kept busy with t^ie epidem ic of grip which has visited so many homes. The symptoms of grip this year are often very distressing and leave the system in a run down con dition, particularly the kidneys which seem to suffer most, as almost every victim complains of lams back and nrincry troubles which should not he neglected, as these danger signals of ten lead to dangerous kidney ti'oubles. Druggists report a large sale on Dr. Kilnier’s Swamp-Root which so m:my j'eopie say soon heals and strength ens the kidneys after an attack of grip. Swamp-Root is a great kidney, ! liver and bladder remedy, and, being I an herbal compound, has a gentle fieal- ing effect on the kidneys, which is almost immediat.ely noticed in most casej by those who try it.
