Even after consumption has almost gained a foothold in the form of a lingering cough, bronchitis, or bleeding at the lungs, it will bring about speedy cure in n8 per cent, of all cases. It is a remedy pre pared by Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., whose advice is given free.o all who wish to write him. His great success has come from his wide experience and varied practice. O. S. Copenhaver, Esq., of Mount Union, Huntingdon Co., Pa. (Box 222), writes: "About twelve years ago I was suddenly taken with a pain in the pit of the stomach which was so vio lent I could not walk straight. It would grow more severe until it caused waterbrash and vom iting of a slimy yellow water. A physician told me I had a form of dyspepsia and treated me for about six months with but little benefit. An other physician told me my liver was out of or der and that I had indigestion. He gave me a treatment and I got some better but only for a short time. I then tried another one, who said X had chronic indigestion, ulceration of the lining of tie stomach, torpid liver and kidney affection. He treated me for more than a year and I felt much better, but it did not last. I then took to using several widelv advertised patent medi cines but received no more than temporary re lief. I then tried Dr. Pierce medicines, using his ' Golden Medical Discovery," and the ' Pleas ant Pellets, and in two months time I was feel ing better than I had for years before."

A Number of Interesting Local Items Personals. Special to The News. Greensboro, N. C. Jan.- 16. There was something of a ripple on the other wise smooth political waters here Sat urday, when it became known that the colored people had sent a "protest" to Washington against the appointment of Mr. C. P. Frazier as postmaster. It is understood they claim that as a Republican candidate for the Legisla ture in 1902 after the suffrage amend ment had disfranchised them he went cut of his way '"to throw off" on the negro and that he did the same thing in his speech at the State Republican convention in 1904 in accepting the nomination as Superintendent of Pub lie Instruction. A gentleman speaking of this "protest" this morning, said it was a little strate that no protest was sent by the negroes against Chair man Rollins and those on his slate, when their throwing overboard of the negro was made with much more noise and fervor than that by Mr. Frazier, who only followed suit in the fashion cf the time. Mr. Frazier is said to have the endorsement of the Black burn faction of the party. United States Marshal Millikan has been instructed by the Department of Justice through the Attorney General to offer a reward of $50 for the appre hension of Jim Combs, wanted for con spiracy in the United States Court. He was also a witness in some of the cases before the court. . Greensboro is becoming a great en gineering and construction company center. The latest acquisition is the Southern headquarters for the cele brated firm of the Andrew Fuller Com struction and Engineering Company, of Boston. They will soon open up offices here in the Benbow Arcade building, with a large force of office men under the supervision of Mr. C. A. Sawyer, Jr., of Philadelphia. There is as yet nothing definite given out as t6 the selection of a minister for the First Presbyterian Church here to supply the vacancy by the resigna tion of Dr. Smith. GIVE HER A CHANCE. Old Dame Nature Knows How. "Old Dame Nature has a sure way of curing sick people by food if the kind she wants is supplied the body and the person don't interfere with drugs. .Sue prescribes such things as fresh air and sunshine, exercise and right, food as her principal agencies. Grape-Nuts is a natural food, pre pared from wholesome grains, with no drugs nor chemical ingredients or tiro- cessesj and is shipped from the factory m sucn predigested fitness that the weakest stomach will readily assimi late it. An Ohio woman who suffered for twelve years from nervous prostration, night sweats, imperfect circulation, in somnia, etc., tells how Grape-Nuts food restored her to health and happi ness in lss than twelve weeks. -"I was so reduced in strength with untold suffering, without- vitality or ambition, bed-ridden and unable to even wait on myself, that I felt obliged to doctor all the time, taking one pre scription after another, but deriving no permanent benefit from any. Some times I would feel better for a little while, but soon the effects of the medi cine would pass away and I would lapse back to my former condition. "Last May at my mother's solicita tion I concluded to quit medicines and try Grape-Nuts food. It did not work a miracle at once, but slowly and sure ly, day by day, it built me up and strengthened me. I soon began to sit up, then to work a little, then to get out to see my friends, gaining mean while in sleep, till at last, by the end cf June I was able to leave home for a visit (taking my Grape-Nuts with me, be sure,) returning after a few weeks, completely restored, with a healthy in terest in :my domestic duties, and, thank Heaven, the strength to perform them! "That is so, and that I am stronger in mind also and quicker and more vig orous intellectually, is due to the use of Grape-Nuts food." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There's a reason.

Urge Amount of Goods Re covered by Officers. In the Recorder's Court this morning Hattie Kirkpatrick and Blandina Gad- dy, the two negro women . alleged to have been guilty of shop-lifting, during the Christmas holidays, and who are now out on bond, were before the court again on a similar charge. Sergeant Farrington and represen tatives of the Bee Hive and Belk Bros, went to the home of the women, near Biddle, yesterday afternoon and armed with a search warrant, they went through several trunks, supposed to be the property of these women. The searching party found a large number of dress patterns, skirts, pieces of lace and different kinds of wearing apparel. Some of these articles had the private cost marks of Belk Bros., The Bee Hive and the Little-Long Co. Representatives of each of these firms were in court. They recognized the different articles but, of course, could not swear that the specific ar ticles were stolen. All three testified that articles of goods had mysteriously disappeared from their stores and the supposition is that they were stolen. Mr. T. L. Kirkpatrick who repre sented the women, stated that unless the three firms above mentioned would swear they had lost the goods, his cli ents could not be held. He also re quested that all three firms be marked as prosecutors in the different bills of indictments. The representatives of the firms did not feel justified in taking this step so Acting Recorder Hilton continued the case until tomor row morning, requiring a $25 bond from each of the women. "When the court announced its in tention, Mr. Kirkpatrick said that in his opinion the judgment was a legal monstrosity and that in order to re lieve his clients he would ask that their cause be brought to the attention of Judge Henry R. Bryan, in a habeas corpus proceedings. The court inform ed Mr. Kirkpatrick that he might take this action if he chose; that he would hold the women under a $25 bond, each, until tomorrow morning. Will Nelson well known to the police was sent to jail for 30 days for va grancy. Nelson has been in the habit of jumping on and off trains at the Southern' passenger station.

Their Dogs Got Drunk, and Things Miscarried Generally. Lesueur (Minn.) Correspondence to St. Paul Pioneer Press. The most unfortunate hunting expe dition ?engaged in by any of the citi zens of Wheatley this ' fall was that undertaken by Henry Dolgan, Casper Theile and Goetlieb Doch, who drove out seventeen miles to the Preston meadows yesterday in search of game. They had gone only three miles from town when Doch, who had crept up behind a straw stack, to get a shot at some crows in the field missed the crows but set fire to the straw and had to pay S3 damages to the farmer who owned it. Then they lost their way and on a three mile wood track, through heavy timber, which they had to take to get to the right road again, they were compelled to follow a load of hay at a snail's pace, so that it was i high noon when they got to the lake.' Then they discovered, when .they prepared to eat their lunch, that the brandy bottle had broken and its con tente had soaked into sandwiches, ruin ing them as food. They threw them aside; the three dogs ate them, and were crazy drunk allthe rest of the afternoon. The water spaniel swam in the icy water of the lake and caught muskrats until he was nearly dead with the cold;. then ran round and, round in a circle to get warm. The coon dog tried to tree everything there was in a ra dius of a mile., and finally settled on ; la hook aent a mile from the camp, , an k8T)t h?m aloft till he fell to the ! ground from sheer exhaustion just as ' Doch had found out about it.

R. H. JORDAN & CO. SUCCESSFUL. After a great deal of effort and cor respondence R. It. Jordan & Co., the popular druggists, have succeeded in getting the Dr. Howard Co. to make a special half-price introductory offer on the regular fifty cent size of their "cele brated specific for the cure of constipa tion and dyspepsia. , VThis medicine is a recent discovery for the cure of all diseases of the stomach and bowels. It not only gives quick relief, but it makes permanent cures. 4 Dr. Howard's specific has been so remarkably successful in curing con stipation, dyspepsia and all liver trou bles that R. H. Jordan & Co. are will ing to return the price paid in every case where it does not give relief. The old-fashioned idea of dosing with ! mineral waters, cathartic pills or harsh purgatives will soon ,be a thing of the past The best physicians are pre scribing Dr. Howard's specific because it really gives the desired results and on account of the small and pleasant dose that is needed. Headaches, coated tongue, dizziness. gas on stomach, specks before the eyes, constipation and all forms of liver and stomach trouble are soon cflred by this scientific medicine. $ I So great is the demand for this spe cific that R. H. Jordan & Co. have been able to secure only a limited supply, and every one who is ' troubled with ; dyspepsia, constipation or liver trou ble should call , upon them at once, or send 25 cents and get sixty doses of the best medicine ever made, on this special half-price offer with their per sonal guarantee to refund the money if it does not cure.
