Others are about half sick all the time. They have headache, backache, and are restless and nervous. Food does not taste good, and the digestion is poor; the skin is dry and sallow and disfigured with pimples or eruptions; sleep brings no rest and work is a burden. What is the cause of all this? Impure blood. And the remedy? It clears out the channels through which poisons are carried from the body. When all impurities are removed from the blood nature takes right hold .in J completes the cure. If there is constipation, take Ayer's Pills. They awaken the frowsy action of the liver; they cure biliousness. TASTELESS m ISJUSTASCOOD FOR ADULTS. WARRANTED. PRICE SOctS. G ai.atia. Ills., Nov. 10, 1S33. Pr ?

It is commonly supposed that one must have an understanding of men in their various humors to success fully manage them, but some men and some women have intuitive knowledge on the subject. They are born managers. The success attend ing the careers of great men has generally resulted from their ability, natural or acquired; to pick out the right assistants and get them to use their best efforts. Their methods are not always the same. Some men have to be driven and some led, with every possible shade of differ ence between the two processes. But the successful managers of men ex hibit one characteristic in common. They have command of themselves and pursue their course, whatever it may be, with an even temper. When they drive thev do so with moral force rather than with physical; when they lead it is with cheerful manner. They are always in earnest, and their purposes command re spect. The driving man may be very quiet, though determined; it is his persistence without passion that breaks down opposition. If he should be arrogant, he would arouse resist ance and perhaps fail in his purpose. The noisy,abusive, domineeriug ruler of men may command them through foar, but he has no real hold upon them, and the moment they are giv en an opportunity to escape from his tyranny they rebel. He is not a ood manager of men, though for the time being they may obey him with alacrity. Successful management of men implies that they have been so trained by him that they will do their duty whether he is present or absent; whether he has the power to punish or reward, or is the mere agent of another and higher author ity. Such a man rules by force of char acter, because the men under him have learned that he is fair minded, sympathetic and devoted to duty. He is not arbitrary or bad temper ed, but has obtained control over himself before undertaking to control others. He is, moreover, an observ ant man and quickly learns the dis positions of those whom he rules and treats them accordingly. With one he is indulgent, with another severe; with all he deals justly. Such men are, of course, rare, but these are the men who rise to the higher positions in business life; they are the men who are fitted to become foremen, managers and principals. Some of them are fitted for such posts by na ture; all can qualify themselves for higher office by giving some atten tion to the qualities required of those who are to successfully manage other men. They must first of all learn to con trol themselves so that their tem pers shall be even; they must be free from prejudices, able to deal justly with all men; they must have a deal justly with all men; they must have a definite purpose in lite ana suffi cient determination to follow it un swervingly. Men thus constituted command respect, and are, therefore, fitted to rule or manage other and weaker characters. The common idea of a manager or boss is of an ar rogant, loud-mouthed, cruel ruler who governs by the fear he inspires; but the real rulers of men are gentle and just, but persistent. They are men who control themselves and are thus fitted to control others. .

Last Friday night I closed my mission down in Alabama a most delightful week with balmy .weather, moonlight nights and good people to cheer me. I retired happy to dream of home and the little grand-children and the light that would be shining in the window for me on Saturday night. The porter was to call me up in time to take the 2 o'clock train for Chattanooga, but alas! he did not do it, and I awoke to find that the train had passed and I was left, left, left Oh! the misery of it. Shakespear says that there is no philosopher can endure the toothache patiently, and I will add, or being left by a train when far from home. There is a goneness about it, for the train has gone. The next train would not connect at Chattanooga and I would have to stay till another 2 o'clock in the morning. But all's well that ends well. All was still and silent. The good old dog was lying at the door and gently wagged his bushy tail. The door was locked, but the window sash was not, and I raised it slowly and softly and was soon in the sit ting room, where there was a good comfortable sofa. I knew that the door to our family bedroom was lock ed, and I heard some faint familiar nasal sounds that assured me all was well. The diagnose was right. In a few minutes I was asleep and play ing on the harmonican myself. My heavy bass echoed to the tenor in the other room and awakened one of the girls, who whispered: "ilamma, mamma, there there is somebody in the front room. " "'It's your papa," said she. "I know his trombone be still and let him sleep, for I expect he is almost worn out." It was eight o'clock when somebody kissed me while I was dreaming of the soldier boys drilling and the officer said left, leftj left at every step. Rousing up I received the family embraces, and two little children came running in and climbed all over me and made me happy Oh, it beats war, or politics, or a dog law, or anything. I was escorted into the dining room to breakfast and saw it at a glance that the room had been repapered with a tinted olive green paper and the bor dering matched it beautifully. The doors to the parlor were wide open and that room had been repapered too, and was lovely. Somehow I never could make as much ado over pleasant surprises as my female folks expect, but I did my best and have expressed my admira tion several times since. Before I left thev had talked about the old paper that had gotten dirty and was falling off and said that if I would get the paper they would put it on, and I assented. I am glad that I did, for if I had been at home they would have put the harness on me and made me wait on them all day, for I am the bov. I met a man down in Alabama who said that my letters were demoraliz ing the women of this country and putting new burdens on the men. "Why," said he. "just look at me I am fifty-five years old and weigh nigh on to 200 pounds, and yet my wife wanted me to climb up a step- ladder yesterday and fix the curtains back and I told her I couldn't, and wouldent, for the ladder was old and rickety and I might fall and break my neck or some of my arms and legs. Well, sir, she laughed and said: 'Bill Arp climbs ladders for his wife, and plants flowers, and straw berries, and nurses the grand-chil dren, too.' "Yes," said I, "that what he writes, but I don't believe a word of it. He thinks that you women are going to be allowed to vote pretty soon and he is just fixing to be elected." Now, see here, Mr. Arp, I fought four years in that dog ond old war and now I am gettin' old and fat and I'm not gwine to climb ladders and tend the flower garden just because you do; that is, if you really do it which I don't be lieve." And the good jolly old vet eran laughed immensely. Next day I made acquaintance with a conductor ou the Alabama G reat Southern and he comforted me by saying that my letters have good example and good cheer and pictur ed what home ought to be. Said he, "we have nine children at our house all under age, and my greatest pleasure is in meeting them when my run is off, and in helping them and their mother to fight the battle of life and be contented and enjoy what we have got and be thankful to God for his tender mercies. Run ning a train half night and half day is hard work, but I enjoy my home and family all the more when I get with them, and they are all the glad der to see me." I like that man and that kind of talk. When our people realize that home is the best place on earth, and the mother is its dearest inmate we will have an ideal commonwealth. Coleridge says: "A mother is a mother still The holiest thing alive." Lyttleton says: "The lover in the husband mav be lost Rut the wife is dearer than the bride " All the great poets have paid tri bute to the home and to the mother, for home is cot home without a mother. Of course there arp many married women who are not mothers and do not wish to be. With them children are intruders, and the pity is that their mothers had not been of similar mind. In New England and fashionable northern circles the maternal instinct has been smoth ered, and has gone into an "innox ious desuetwde" as Mr. Cleveland would say. And good gentle Tom Howard said that a Boston mother wouldn't have but one or two chil dren, and she wouldn't have any if she didn't want an heir to inherit the estate. Ella Wheeler Wilcox wrote a re markable letter two years ago on the decay of the maternal instiuct in New England, and the great increase of divorces and voluntary separations. Mary Brent Reid has recently pub lished an article on the same subject as applicable to France. She says that the fashionable women of the period wont even dress like women. They despise hips and try to hide them. They prefer to be as slim as race horses, and to conceal every sign of maternal form. Children are intruders they say; and if by chance they have any they are put out to nurse and to be reared by uumoth erly hands. What an awful pictsre this is what a sad descent from the motherhood of our mothers what a counterpart to the Savior's teaching when he said, "Suffer little children to come unto me for of such is the kingdom of heaven." Nearly all the great men of the world have been nursed by noble mothers, and it re joices me to know that Mrs. Sarah Butts, of Brunswick, has a book now in press with Lippincott that will res cue from oblivion the mothers of many of Georgia's great and good men. With her it has been a labor of love. How our biographers from Moses down have lauded the great men but paid small tribute to their mothers. But the highest heaven is reserved for them, and an eternal fame that will not pass away like that the great men acquire in this changea ble world. Alas, poor Dewey; how soon did his gatlands wither, but we still have Schley and Brumby and Hobsou left, and a host of lesser lights that illuminate the southern sky. Bill Arp. Decline of Imports. The decline of imports is striking and curious. "In 1893," the New York Journal of Commerce observes, "the imports were, in round num bers, $844,000,000, against iWT.OOO, OOOforlSOO a decline of $147,000, 000 in spite of an increase of at least nine millions in population. The most important element in this de cline is, of course, under the head of manufactured products, of which $30,000,000 less in value was import ed in 18D9 than in 1803. Under the head of food and animals there was a decline of $57,000,000, and under the head of articles of voluntary use luxuries, etc. a decline of $14,000, 000. On the other hand, the value of the imports of articles in a crude condition entering into the processes of domestic manufacture shows an increase of $4,000,000 as compared with 1893." The imports this year are less by $1S,000,000 than in 1S95, in which year the country had not recovered from the crisis of 1893. In some cases, however, the quantities imported have increased, while the value has decreased. For example, we import ed 2,000,000 more pounds of sugar, while the value has fallen over $21, 000,000. Of coffee we imported 831, 000,000 pounds, against 503,000,000 pounds in 1893, but for the larger quantity we gave $55,000,000, while we gave $70,000,000 for the smaller quantity.

Covjngton shot and killed himself because he was disappointed in a love affair. Leaving a note, asking his wife to forgive the deed, L. A. Root killed himself by drinking carbolic acid, at Port Huron, Mich., Friday. Becoming despondent on account of ill-health Mrs. John Laughton, of Woodville, Fla., committed suicide Thursday by shooting herself in the head. In a row over a woman, William H. Phillips, colored, was fatally cut with a hatchet by George W. Parker, colored, at New York city, Saturday night. At Philadelphia, Pa., Wednesday morning, nearly $2,000,000 worth of property was destroyed by two fires. The loss is said to be fully covered by insurance. In a delirium from pneumonia, Jrnnie Michelbank jumped from a fourth-story window, at the Roose velt Hospital, at New York city, Friday, and was killed. The entire business portion of Onancocke, Va , was destroyed by fire Frida3' morning. The loss is es timated at $100,000 with insurance amounting to $25,000. Origin of fire unknown. At the Land pebble Phosphate Camp near Tampa, Fla., Thursday, Mamie DeLong shot and killed Lizzie D. Sessions and Calvin Andrew. Jealousy is assigned as the cause of the tragedy. An unsuccessful attempt was made to wreck the "Colorado Special" on the Chicago and Northwestern Rail road, near Marshaltowp, la , Satur day. Several arrests of suspects have been made. An express train on the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad was run into by an accommodation train at Paterson, N. J., Wednesday night. Six persons were killed and 20 or more seriously injured. Two masked robbers entered the express car of a train on the South ern Railway near Brauchville, S. C, Friday night, covered the two mes sengers with their guns, secured $1,700 and made their escape. Near Columbus, Kan., Friday af ternoon, the Laflin-Rand Powder Works were blown up. One man was instantly killed, four hurt seri ously and one missing, supposed to have been killed. The explosion re sulted from a fire which broke out in the mixing room. At Johns Hopkins Hospital, Balti more, Md., Friday, Miss Clara Gunn, 28 years of age, of Meadowdale, Va., died of an overdose of laudanum, taken with probably suicidal intent. No cause for the deed can be assign ed, unless it was ill-health. She was a patient in the hospital. At Port Jervis, N. Y., Friday night, burglars blew open the safe of Howard's drug store, setting fire to the building, which was complete ly wrecked. Two adjoining build ings were also burned. Aged Mrs. Tarbox was burued to death. She occupied an up stairs room in one of the burned buildings. Foreign Affairs. Aguinaldo is now reported to be in Abra Province, North Luzon. Germany is said to be very shy of the mooted Anglo-American German alliance. Emperor William, who has been visiting Queen Victoria in England, has returned to Berlin. The French Chamber of Deputies voted a credit for re-establishing an embassy at the Vatican. There is opposition among the Cu ban planters to the proposed new revolutionary movement. After a count of noses it seems probable that the German Reichstag will pass the Kaiser's big navy bill. The Countess St. Maurier (Grace Corneau) will have a Christmas tree for poor American children in Paris. American military officials in Cuba say they expect no immediate trou ble from the talk of another revolu tion. The British steamer Merrimac, which left Quebec for Liverpool on October 27, has not reached that port. Prominent Mussulmans have been arrested at Constantinople on the charge of plotting to assassinate the Sultan. The sentiment of the German press is still favoxable to the Boers and some papers suggest a German Dutch alliance. General Castro's government in Venezuela is sending an army to at tack General Hernandez, who has started a revolution- Joseph Chamberliin, speaking at Leicester, England, again advocated an alliance of Great Britain, the United States and Germany. Col. J. F. Bell's victory over the Filipinos in the mountains west of Mangalaren, Luzon, resulted in the capture of artillery and many rifles. National Capital Matters. From Our Regular Correspondent. Washington, Dec. 5, 1899. "Speaker Henderson promises to be just as much of an autocrat as Thomas B. Reed, if one can judge from present indications. -If any thing, he is more dictatorial than the man from Maine ever dreamed of being." That is not a democratic opinion, but one uttered by a prom inent republican member of the House, whose name cannot be used, because he spoke in confidence to a personal friend. It indicates, how ever, that things are not turning out in accordance with the numerous prophesies of reform that were to be inaugurated when Mr. Henderson became Speaker. Democraats are rather enjoying the republican criticism of Mr. Mc Kinley'sgold standard bill, alleged to have been prepared by a republi can caucus committee, which was made public several days ago. Al though the bill explicitly declares for the single gold standard, aud fav ors the national banks, the ultra gold men are objecting to it because it does not provide for calling in the greenbacks as well. Several repub lican Senators have said that the bill cannot get through the Senate in its present shape, and have predicted such radical amendments thereto as will result in a dead-lock between the House and Senate, and no finan cial legislation. Democrats are not discussing the bill to any extent, just now, bnt they will be glad to have the-republican party go into the Presidential campaign with that bill defining its financial position. According to Gen. Leonard Wood, who saj's he is in Washington solely to confer with the War Department concerning the withdrawal of some of the troops under his command from Cuba the orders for their with drawal have been issued Mr. Mc Kinley has abandoned the idea of ap pointing a civil governor for Cuba at this time. Representative Crowley, of Illi nois, one of the new democratic members thus sizes up the political situation in his State: "My people favor the nomination of Bryan and the re-affirmation of the Chicago platform, with some additions against trusts and the imperalistic course of the McKinley administra tion. Col. Bryan has a strong chance of carrying Illinois, if sufficient en couragement is given and a good or ganization effected." For the first time in many years two brothers, from different States, are members of the same House. They are Representative Clayton, of Alabama, and Representative Clayton, of New York, nephews of of ex-Senator Pugh, and both demo crats of the tried and and true brand. Senator Harris, of Kansas, thinks the democratic party has a grand op portunity before it, of which he said: It seems to me that if the demo crats would seize upon the opportun ities within their grasp they would have an excellent chance of regain ing control of the country. First and foremost, let them address themselves to getting up an income tax law that would be held valid by the Supreme Court. Here is some thing definite, something worth fighting for, and inline with popular sentiment. Social and economic problems are the vital issues, and the party that ranges itself on the side of the common people will be the domi nant political force in this country." The members of the republican caucus committee, which claims to have prepared the gold standard bill, which is to.be jammed through the House by order of the caucus, without even being referred to a com mittee, displayed monumental nerve when they stated in their report on the bill, as one of the reasons why it ought to become a law, that silver had steadily declined in price and its production had fluctuated. Everybody knows that both the decline in price and the fluc tuation in the production of silver was caused directly by the attitude of the republican party, taken under orders from the gold kings of Eu rope, during the last eight or ten years toward the white metal. Representative Sutherland, of Ne braska, says all the republican talk about not having tried to carry that State and being glad that Bryan won is tommyrot of the worst kind; that the republicans of the State tried hard to beat Bryan, and had lots of outside help on the job, and have been sore ever since election because of the poor showing they made. He added that the State would give ' Bryan an increased majority next year. Mr. Sutherland is one of the few populist members of this House. Much regret is felt in Washington over the announcement that the health of Hon. W. L. Wilson, who was the last democratic chairman of of the House committee on Ways and Means, and Postmaster General during the last Cleveland adminis tration, was in a precarious condi tion. Mr. Wilson, who has since his retirement from public life been President of the Washington and Lee Universitj', at Lexington, Va.,' has been ordered to Arizona, for the winter by his physician. ALL OVER THE STATE. A Summary or Current Events for the Past Seven Days. -Rutherford county farmers are holding their cotton for better prices. The officials of Tarboro have let the contract for a complete sewerage system. Love's Methodist Episcopal church at Walkertown, Forsyth county, was destroyed by fire Sunday, causing an uninsured loss of $2,000. Dr. Ledbetter, of Greensboro, has brought suit against the cit3' for $2, 400. for services due for attending smallpox patients last April. The sixty-third annual session of the North Carolina Methodist Con ference convenes at Washington this morning. Bishop E. R. Hendrix, of Missouri, will preside. While making some blackboard demonstrations in the room of the fourth grade of the Union school of Wilmington, Tuesday, Miss Leo B. Cameron, the teacher, dropped dead. A negro named Alex. Broadnax was found crushed to pieces under a freight train at Reidsville last Sat urday night. It is supposed that he was murdered and placed on the track to hide the crime. Mr. Alex. Vaden, a Richmond drummer, has brought suit against the Raleigh Electric Co. for $3,000 damages because he was put off a street car during' Fair week, after refusing to pay his fare. The truck farmers near Wilming ton have an enormous crop of lettuce this season, and the quality is prime. The crop is being shipped in large quantities to Philadelphia aud New York where good prices are received. While out hunting Thanksgiving Day with three other lads, Louis Godwin, a negro boy who lives a mile west of Faj'etteville, accidentally shot himself through the shoulders and neck, death being almost instan taneous. A rear-end collision occurred on the Southern Railway, at Greens boro, Sunday morning at C o'clock, by a passenger train running into a standing freight train, causing the death of the negro fireman on the passenger train. W. A. Knowles, of Mecklenburg county, was run over by a Southern train at Charlotte Friday night and instantly killed, his head being sev ered from his body. He sold a load of wood that morning and became intoxicated in the afternoon. A rich deposit of iron ore has been discovered within twenty-five miles of Raleigh in the edge of Johnson county. It is yielding a car load daily that is being sent to Greens boro. Experts say that the ore runs from 48 to 55 per cent, of metallic iron. The Western North Carolina Con ference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in session at Concord last week, adopted a resolution request ing Congress to refuse to seat Congressman-elect B. H. Roberts, cf Utah. The resolution was adopted by a rising vote. David Wilson, of Sutherland, who was badly injured at Savannah, Ga., more than a year ago while in the service of the United States, has been granted a pension of $72 per month for total disability, he having been confined to his bed ever since his return home. Near Castle Haynes, Saturday morning, the body of Dr. T. F. Nix on, resident physician at the State farm at Castle Hayne, was found be side the track of the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad horribly mangled. It is presumed that he was struck by the northbound train Friday night, while on his way home from Wil mington. The Baptist State Convention met in its sixt3'-ninth annual session at Asheviile yesterday. This is the first session ever held beyond the Blue Ridge. This fact will give the con vention significance in Baptist his tory. Until twelve months ago there were two conventions the other known as the Western North Caro lina Convention, has existed in the mountain counties since 1845. The present session seals the union of all North Carolina territory in one con vention. The Baptists in the State number 175,000 white and 140,000 colored communicants.
