Page 6 RIGHTS OF MARRIED WOMEN. Marriage Does Not Any Longer Affect Any Property A Woman May Own Prior to Marriage or Acquire After Marriage. Married women are emanci pated—a twenty-year fight is ended. North Carolina takes her place among the progress ive states of the Union in regard to the rights of married women over their own property, says a Raleigh paper. Such is the effect of a decision, Rea v. Rea, handed down by the Supreme Court recently. This decision gives a married woman the same power over her property that she had before her marriage. The many intricate j and hazy uncertainties of the rights of married women over their own property are swept away; the last remnants of the mediaeval idea that a woman's property became her husband's on her marriage are banished from our law. Marriage does not any longer affect any pro perty a woman may own prior to marriage or acquire after marriage. It is hers and sub ject only to her wishes. For twenty years Chief Justice Clark has held in such cases the posi tion now taken by the court, and this decision sustains his position. The opinion is written by Chief Justice Clark for the Supreme Court. It settles this vexatious question for all time. The facts which caused the litigation in this case are these : Mrs. Rea gave her husband 46 shares of cotton mill stock which she owned in her own name. She tilled out the usual transfer certificate on the back of the stock certificate. No private examination was taken before any justice of the peace. The stock was transferred by the cotton mill to Mr. Rea. He died, and his administrator took the stock, and now Mrs. Rea sues to recover the stock, alleging that the gift and the transfer was void because no private examin ation was taken and therefore in violation of Revisal, section 2107. Summing up the rights of married women in North Caro lina as to conveyance, Chief Justice Clark says : "As to conveyances of person ality. There is no restriction whatever upon her right to dis pose of her personality as fully and freely as if she had remain ed unmarried, either in Constitu tion or by any statute. Vann v. Edwards 135 N. C., 661, cited with approval by Justice Conner in Ball v. Paquin, 140 N. C., 91. "As to conveyances of Realty. The Constitution requires only 'the written assent' of the hus band. The statute superadds only a regulation providing for a privy examination, which has been upheld on the ground that it is not an additional require- Young and old have them. Some abuse them.

NO ALCOHOL. k ment, but merely a method of ascertaining if the deeds is really her voluntary act. "As to contracts. Laws 1911. Chapter 108 provides that a mar ried woman is authorized to con tract and to affect her real and personal property thereby in the same manner and to the same effect as if unmarried, excepting only contracts»whereby she may incur liability to her husband, as which the provisions of Rev. 2107 are retained." The transfer of this stock to Rea is upheld and it is decided that it cannot be recovered of his administrator. BALKED AT COLD STEEL. 'I wouldn't let a doctor cut my foot Qff," said H. D. Ely. Ban tam, Ohio, "although a horrible ulcer had been the plague of my life for four years. Instead I used Bucklen's Arnica Salve, and my foot was soon completely cured." Heals Burns, Boils, Sores, Bruises, Eczema, Pimples, Corns. Surest Pile cure 25c. at all druggists. Good Roads and School Attendance. Mr. C. Massey, County Super intendent of Schools, Durham county, N. C., reports that at tendance in schools on good roads is about 70 per cent, and on bad roads about 50 per cent. He states that lands along the roads leading out from Durham sold for SIO.OO to $25.00 per acre and that since the roads have been improved they bring from $50.00 !?100.«>0 per acre. He states that farm lands along im proved roads are worth three times as much as those on bad: roads and that the people have moved off of the bad roads and on to the good roads. DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED by local applications, as they can not reach the diseased portion of I the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf ness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube re stored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is noth ing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Cure. Send for circulars free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O. Sold by Druggisits, 75c.
