YFS, MAKE THEM PAY.
The Salisbury Sun has stirred
up the matter of non-deb.t pay
ing, a subject timely enough.
We think we have noticed sev
eral changes aslring whether
the Sun would have non-debt
payers imprisoned, referring we
suppose to thecasa law that we
had before we got the dishonesty
breeding homestead.
If we are not decidedly in er
ror, you did not imprison a man
unless you could swoar that you
w
believed that ho possessed but
was secreting the means to pay
you, and therefore was pur
posely depriving you of your
.n i. Then he would stay for a
Period of SO days and if he could,
, ar that he d'I not possess
t hp means to pay he was turned
loose and the expense paid by the
inooccutor. We have no hesitation
in saying that.it was infinitely a
better law than we now have.
1 1 was promotive of honesty,
while our homestead is begetting
a wretchedly large class of ras
cals. We do not mean to sa'y,
however, that we are advocating
the casa law. The homestead
should be greatly reduced ajrd it
sliould be a misdemeanor severe
ly punishable for onfe to neglect
y) pay a debt through unwil
lingness to work as hard and
practice as muth economy as the
nan he owes, i
The best remedy we havejn
rolrd is to hang every last one of
thse chronic deadbeats, not
wIlIi, hem save it for more de
cent subjects, but uscuntriiftmed
$rape vines as long as the sup
ply would hold out. It would
. cut off a bad breed and would in
culcate honesty, industry and
economy with the progress of a
cyclone.
'THE SlIELDOg IDEA.
tiring
0 fchj ab3e ubjecfc tire
pjjjfsident of the State
Press Association, Mr. D J
Whichard, in hi oration at the
late convention .at AshevilleH
said:
i'One of thQ.problem,s the last
year of the closing century has
given us iswhat has been terjned
the 'Sheldon Idea in Journalism.'
We have seen an illustration of
this and heard its merits ana"
demerits discussed, but so far as
my observation has reached
there are no followers of that
single example, I believe,
brethervn and I say this rever
entlythat we overstep the
bounds of propriety when we
undertake to say how Jesus the
Christ would couduct a news
paper, were He on the earth to
day. I do not believe wc are
justified in assuming to take His
place and to ask the question
'What would Jesus Do?' But on
the other hand wo might with
propriety, and, if we are sincere,
with much profit to ourselves
change the form of this interro
gation and ask 'What Would
Jesus Have Me to Do?'
"Who can picture the result if
every newspaper maker should
before leaving the quiet of his
home to begin the duties of the
day, go humbly to the feet of the
Great Teacher and ask 'How
would Jesus -have me cpnduct
my paper today?' Listen to
this promise: 'If any man lack
wisdom let him ask of Gfotl, who
givetti to all men liberally and
upbraideth not.' Dcwewantto
honor Him in all that we do?
With the honest desiro in eyery
man's heart to conduct his paper
as Jesus would have him conduct
it, there would soon be changes
in journalim more marvelous
than any we have yet seen."
The sentiment is eminently
timely it seems to" us but thore is
sensation in the Sheldon idea and
that catches.

. The Southern Railway man
agement has issued a circular
setting forth that statistics show
that during political campaigns
more railroad accidents occur
thaii at other periods. It is ac
counted for by divided interest
and attention and sometimes by
loss of sleep. The management
therefore urges its employes not
to talk much'of politics, and es
pecially when on duty. It is but
a wise precaution and not a hard
ship when we consider that life
itself .hinges upon the faithful
and undivided attention to duty.
There is nothing in the circular,
however, that seems mandatory,
but of kind precaution for pub"
lic safety.

Nine out of ten women are afflicted with tome of the
common .ailments knawn as. female diseases. Among
wOmen whose employment requires them to stand on their
feet or sit in the same position all day, not one in twenty,
fiye escape these troubles. The average feminine consti
tution cannot, unaided withstand the strain to which,
steady, trying work subjects them. The organs of woman
hdod are so delicate and finely adjusted that the inevitable
result of constant standing, lifting stooping or strainintf is
displacement of vital parts. The disorder is usually slight
at first, but soon develops into irregular or painful men
stru'ation, leucorrhoea or falling of the womb. Wine of
Cardui is the riant remedv for female weakness. As such
it is offered to you. Wine of Cardui will not perform LlJ
miracles, but it will, it taken as directed, insure painless
and regular operation of the menstrual function. It will
drive out every trace of leucorrhoea, and will so strengthen
the ligaments that falling of the womb will be an impossi.
bility. Don't you think it would pay you to try a medl
cine with such a record as that? You can get a $1 bottle
of Wine of Cardui at any drug store and use it in the
privacyof your home. ,
