i Girlhood and Scott*s Emulsion are ?
linked together. A
I The girl who lakes Scotf s Emu I-
sion has plenty of rich, red blood; she is O
plump, active and energetic.
The reason is that at a period when a girl's X
digestion is weak, Scott's Emulsion A
provides her with powerful nourishment in O
easily digested form. V
It is a food that builds and keeps up a - I

POOR PAY FOR RAISING TOBACCO.
Cost $960 00 To Produce A Crop
Which Brought Only $948 00—
Some Newt Notes From Germanton.
Germanton, Jan. 14.—Prof. E.
N. Helsabeck principal of Rural
Hall sohool, spent Saturday and
Sunday with relatives near Ger
manton.
The workmen have finished the
annex to Sheriff Petree's house.
Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Petree

Friendship and Corinth spelled
again last Friday night. Tht
crosses were 76 to 44 in favor of
Friendship, giving Friendship a
majority of 32 crosses. There was
a large crowd out and the night
was fine and all seemed to enjoy
ths spelling. A few among the
number present were Prof E. N.
Helsabeok, of Rural Hall ; Messrs
G. T. Baker, Henry Hartgrove,
Wm. Baker, Bud Baker, F. E.
Petree, Billie Tuttle, Aulins Tut
tle, Earl Wagoner, Grover Allen
and Sheriff Petree.
We certainly sanction every
word "Observer'' said in his ar
ticle last week. His statement is
unfortunately too true. I was talk
ing with one of the best tobacoo
raiseis in this section of th«coun
ty today, and we took his crop for
an example. We calculated all the
necessary expense one must incur
to produce his orop. The gentle
man's crop brought him $948.00
and the sotual cost to produce his
crop—not counting the wear of
his land—was $960.00, making the
orop cost $12.00 more than was
actually received for it.
It is a sure faet that we cannot
continue to make the weed, when
there is nothing left for us on the
cash side of oar bank book. And
we think it is high time the
Stokes farmer was turning his at
tention to something that would
at least give him dollar for doll»r,
! instead of ruining his land, de
stroying his timber, and making
his days shorter by the necessa y
exposure he must undergo to pro
duce a crop of tobacco.

The Specter Of Constant Jealousy.
When a man is afraid to remark
at the breakfast table, even mildl>
and casually, that, from what
he has heard, Cleopatra was a
beautiful woman, it is fair to as
sume that the specter of constant
jealously dwells in that household.
When a wife fears to look at the
moon because she may be accused j
•f admiring the mau in it, the
husband needs to be gently re
minded that he is taking a very
rapid short cut to killing the love
he snems to bold so sacred, Love
is fed by confidence, trust, faith
and serene, restful reliance, but
morbid jealousy is a poison of
doubt, suspicion and injustice that
dulls the love it does not deaden.
Jealousy is a disease that can I e
cured only by the subject, not by
anyone else in all the world. No
matter how gentle, kind, forbear
ing, gorgiving and forgeting t> e
object of it may be, this in itself
will not cure the attacks. The sub
ject whose heart is thus swayed
by fierce galea of joalousy must
first awaken to the folly of it, the
injustice of it : must be conscious
of the tried of bitterness and un
happiness it brings to both, must
realize the cruel continued assault
on the tolerance, love, loyalty and
patience of the other, and, when
the next attack oomee, seek by
strength of will, by force of char
acter, by every weapon in the ar
mory of the soul, to kill the feel
ing. Jealousy must be killed in
the thought. In the mind, the
battle-ground of the soul, must
the fight of extermination be
waged. In the thought must the
jealousy be neutralized by faith,
conquered by justice and trans
formed by trustful love into a
restful, abiding confidence that
only absolote proof and certainty
of just cause for jealousy can ever
reawaken. —Wm. George Jordan
in the February Delineator.
