"The governmental expenditure-last
year mounted up to five hundred and
eighty-two millions, which is not equal-
lea by any year since the civil war, with
the exception of the year of the Spanish
war. Instead of a surplus in the annual
receipts of about eight millions, which
the present executive found on assuming
control, there is now a deficit to be found
of forty-two millions. There is an in
evitable result to such extravagance."

"What shall I dor Both these men
are my husbands! Not that I lore Jim
the lest, but that I love Lump more,"
said Mrs. Turner Lowe, as in the pres
enoe of Magistrate J. W. Bates, of
Jonesville, few .days ago, she brokenly
asktd tbe question and then burst into
tears, the two men standing on either
side also weeping silently. -
It was a startling and unusual titua
tion for any woman and magistrate
too, for that matter to be in, and while
he deliberated the woman told her
story about as follows:
She was a Miss Evins from near Rich
Hill, and married Jim Turner several
years (go. He left ber. She heard he
bad been killed by a soda fountain ex
ploding. She mourned bis demise for
a year, then came Lamp Lowe tod
happiness into her life again. Lowe it
22 years old, Turner about 35, and her
age, which having been married twice
she does not attempt to conceal, is 26.
She bad been married to Lowe for
one year and both of them bad worked
in the spinning room of the Jonesville
Manufacturing Company for some
time, but little seems to be known of
them. Then came Turner, who il
seems baa no occupation, as it wen
from the dead. Consternation prevail
ed, and three hearts that had beat at
one ached in a manner not to be de
scribed.
"What shall I do," she tearfully re
peated.
And Magistrate Bates, knowing thai
only iu far Thibet was one woman per
mitted to have as many husbands tr
she liked, and that that couutry had
never been penetrated by three living
persons and they were men, delivered
himself thus: '
"Go to North Carolina. Get a divorr
from Turn r, and live thereafter with
Lowe, for when" marrying, bim you
thought he was your only living hus
band."
When he bad spoken Turner weni
out on tbe street. There be was seen
crying. Presently be called to the.
former Mrs. Turner. She went to him
Together they wept. Then the return
ed and informed ber spouse No. 2 that
bis presence was desired. When the
two men met, it was, not with angry
words and blows. Their tears mingled
freely, one weeping for what he had lost,
the other evidences fail to reveal the
fact that it was for what he had gained
it wat out of sympathy for bis pre-
deceeaDr in matters matrimonial.
Here the story ends, so far as tbe
Jonesville folks know, except that nexl
morning Mr. Co we boarded tbe train
with the supposed intention of going to
see her brother, reported to live neai
Rich Hill, but an inquiry about ber of
well known person there, failed to
produce any information. Turner's
whereabouts are not known. Lowe,
the next day, it it said, left on a train
bound in the same direction,' and it

The New York Worl publishes a

"Determined to sustain his reputa
tion as the ohampion eater of the world
Philip Melloy, a local character, is dead
at the result of devouring 85 pounds c f
raw beef in 20 hours. When physi
cians examined bit stomach they pro
nounced it three times its normal size
and so much inflamed that it resembled
raw beef.
"Melloy died in terrible agony. Tbe
doctors stated that death was due to a
rupture of one of the large blood vessels
leading into the lungs.
Melloy made a wager that be could
eat 85 pounds of raw b.'ef in 20 hours
According 'to the terms of the wager,
Melloy was to bfi locked in a room and
remain there until he accomplished the
feat. A guard was stationed outside
the door. Melloy emerged from the
room at the expiration of 19 hours, snd
the man who stood watch was dura-
founded to Sod only the banes of tbe
beef left.
"Melloy felt elated over his success
and took tbe party to a nearby restau
rant, where be ate three cns Of salmon
and two large apple pies.
"Melloy had been an extraordinary
eater for years. Two weeks ago he
sucked 13 dozen eggs in SO minutet
and then ate 15 cans of salmon in two
hours. Recently several of the young
iports of the town took Melloy to a
restaura-it couduuUd by a German,
ho offered to give 'Melloy all the food
be cmld eat for 1. Melloy ordered
rive porterhouse steaks aiad six mine-
pies aud devoured them all to Im
ban one hour. He whs formirly s
prosperous merchant and was married
Sve times."

Am Inaporjca enter ot Police
Under the above heading, Tbe Wil
mington Star has the following edi
torial: "Two chiefs of police having
been killed by desperate criminals at
Shelby, that office apparently went beg
ging so far as home material wat con
cerned. The consequence wat that the
Shelby authorities looked elsewhere for
chief, and picked up one in Har
vey Jetton, who has been on the
Charlotte police force for more
than twenty yes, it seems to us.
He has gone to bit new post of duty,
and danger, perhaps; but knowing Har
vey, we are rather inclined to believe
that if there it another funeral at
Shelby on account of pistol shot, it
won't be Harvey's funeral at all. He
goes quietly about bit butineea and has
a good eye for 'monkey' tricks. Shelby
hat imported tbe right article, and be't
worthy all the tariff charges tbe will
bave to pay on bim."

1 Fonll.li ralrlc to Vanity In thr
Case of c lillrirrn.
Kaleiifh Times.
One of the many unfortunate results
f this straining for wealth and the
appearance of it is to make extremely
selfish the young women for whom such
superhuman efforts are msde. When
girl knows that all in her family
make sacrifijes to give her that which
they cannot afford, and when she
knows that others so without neces
sities in order that she may have lux
uries, she begins to think, sfier awhile,
that she must be somebody tf greal
importance, and that everything must
point toward her and all the family
arrangements be made with reference
to her comfort and convenience Too
often she becomes dissatisfied with he
humble surroundings, and thinks ber
home a bore, a place to bo avoided as
much as possible. Not loDg ago we
heard a young woman of this kind
actually say that she wasa8hamed of
her home, although her mother had
made untold sacrifices for her, and bad
robbed herself and her home of many
things they should have bad, in-order
to aoaMe ber daughter to make a tiae
appearance, this catering to vanity is
what ruins many wrmen and makes
selfish wives.

I THE HUNTERS CAME TOO LATE
Their Faithful Dog has pointed out the True Bemedy to Prevent Baldness,
but the Hunters came too late-Chronio Baldness is incurable.
HERPICIDE A "HAIR-SAVER."
Newbro's Herpicide saves the hair by destroying the
Rerm or microbe that is now known to be the cause of
dandruff, falling hair and baldness. In chronio bald
ness the hair follicles are completely atrophied, causing
the scalp to shriuk aud shine ; little can be done in snch
canes except to save the remaining "fringe," aud this is
well worth saving, for it offers some protection against
the cold.
The "Hair Grower" is a fallacy. It requires but a
slight knowledge of Anatomy to know that tbe hair gets
its life and strength from the hair-papilla at the bottom
of the bair follicle,- and the papilla in turn gets its nour
ishment direct from the blood ; therefore, nature is the
only true hair grower. There are enemies of hair
growth that cause hair loss and baldniss. Invisible
microbic growths enter the sbaceons glands, situated
at the top of the hair follicles (Dr. Sabourand, of Paris,
says the microbe usually enters the scalp in yonth)
where one colony after another is established, until
finally, after months and sometimes years, there is dan
draff, itching scalp and falling hair. The Sebnm also
solidifies, causing dry, lustreless and brittle hair. De
stroy this microbe growth with Newbro's Herpicide aud
protect the bair against re-infection, aud it will grow
as nature intended.
Newbro's Herpicide is a Twentieth Century Remedy.
JUL.
Its mission is to teach new rules 'for scalp cleanliness,
new rales for hair preservation aud to supply a germ-.
destroying solution that will enable careful persons to
have beautiful and luxuriant hair. Almost marvelous
results follow the use of Herpicide, and if it does not do
more than we claim for it, your dealer will refund your
purchase price. As a hair dressing it is truly exqnisite,
on account of its dainty and refreshing odor, which is
characteristic. It c ufiims no oil, grease or sedementary
substauce, neither does it stain nor dye the hair.
Stops itching of the scalp almost instantly.
