Don't Get Fooled Ifs easy to get fooled on Jewelry. Some people bi:v jewelry without regard to self protection. Others are careful to buy from a house whose name stands for honest merchandise at honest pri- I cos. Buying jewelry here is made easy for it is bought with confidence and the variety for selec i on is rarely equaled in cities much larger than • lickorv.

Also the way has been paved for the reUef of the 60,000 men *ho are poisoned by lead each year in the United States. Dr. Frank L. Morse, of 3504 St. Louis avenue, assisted by Dr. G. O. Wilhite, of Easton auenue, say they have found that the action cf bichloride of mercury can be arrested hat the poison probably can be dis sembled and then eliminated. Smarting on the theory opposite of cataphoresis, in which galvanic electric ity drives metal.chemicals through the lesh from a positive to a negative pole an attempt was nude to out the mercury in the same way that electro plating is done. A cat's back was shaved and bichlo ride of mercury was forced into Its stomach until three grains were in iis system. This is estimated to be ecus) to 50 grains in a human being, which 10 grains inevitably kills. The cat wa> ted on milk three or four times a day A bath was arranged and the cat put on a copper plate in the bottom and an electrode placed on its back. Six dry battery cells were used. Until their ex penments have progressed further with lead poisoning, which takes longer to accomplish, the physicians refuse to give out the chemicals used ir this oath. The first experiment wa a disa. - pointment and also a great surprise. The coop r was not "electroplated' with mercury, but the physicians sey they discoverel what they h3d beei. searching tor. The mercury released its hold ugon the kidneys within five o> six hours. Other cats were treated similarly and the result was the same It was discovered, that a second shock of electricity was fataL Ont treatment cures, Dr. Morse says. A cat that got three grains last week and received the one shock shows ever} sirn of recovery. Another died soon after a second shock. Another cat i undergoing the lead poisoning. Experiments are being made to de termine wha. the electricity does to th» mercury and what is the ultimate effect of the electrolysis on the kidneys of the cured subject and ultimate effect t f tie temporary poisoning. Under othe conditions the mercury slowly destra s these organs. Low Round Trip Fares, vi. Southern Railway.

In the primary department, the firs', three grad , here were 144 enroll-d in the souu. and 140 in the North rchool.

Naturally the hundreds who pa tronize the show are pleased with what they see, but it mat ters not how rare the animal may be, there is nothing that furnishes to the old and young alike so much pleasure as the many monkeys in their large and spacious home. Giraffes, hippo potamuses, rhinoceroses, giant camels and even the extremely hydrochored may for a time hold their attention, but not as long as will the cage full of monkeys. There is always something new about their antics, and they seem to know they are the "whole thing'' when it comet to being attractive. There is nothing so near human as a monkey mother with her babe. Every move and every attention bestowed upon her offspring is just as near that of a human mother as can be. S >metime ago with this show a monkey mother lost her little baby and was grieving herself to death. She refused to eat and could not in any way be comforted until the keeper one dav introduced a small puppy dog to the cage full of monkeys. Almost immediately the mother who had lost her monkey baby adopted the little dog and has mothered him ever since, watch ing over him as carefully as she would her own little baby. She carries him around in her arms whenever she climbs to the perches, and when he is playing around in the cage she watches and sees that no harm befalls him. Should the monkey when playing hide and seek with the puppy hide where it is difficult for him to find her, he will cry just as if being neglected, and the mother monkey will spring from her concealment, pick him up in her arms and cuddle him to her with true motherly affec tion. She does not mourn for her dead baby since she adopted the puppy dog. Mrs. Ariuor. The Woman's Christian Tem perance Union and the North Carolina Anti-Soloon League by a united effort have induced Mrs. Msry Harris Armor, of Georgia, to make a campaign of this State for two weeks. Tuesday night, September 16th, has been fixsd for her appointment at Hickory. Mrs. Armor was recently ap pointed a delegate to represent the United States at the Inter national Anti-Alchoho! Congress at Milan, Italy. She is without que tion the most sought after temperance speaker of her sex in the United States. She is ad vertised as one of the drawing cards to the National Anti-Sa loon League Convention, which meets at Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 10th. 1613. Everybody cordially invited to come out and hear Mrs. Armor. I would like for all our Hick ory people to hear Mrs. Armor, the great women speaker from Georgia. She is regarded as the world's greatest woman speaker. She certainly surpasses all the speakers either men or women that I have heard in many a day. She is a cultured woman with a burning message, and she liter ally skins those people who are weak on the prohibition question. Let's all turn out and take our share, for who of us has done his du*y? In all probability she will not let the church people off as light as they m'ght expect. No admission fee when she »peak 3 at the First Methodist church next Tuesday night, but a collection will be taken for the cause of prohibition. Mrs. Armor is making a tour of the state in the interest of nation wide pro hibition. She is sent out by the Anti-Saloon League and W. C. T. U., and her work locally is under the auspices of the Minis ters' Association of Hickory. Let' 3 fill the house packed full to the doors. D. M. LITAKER. BIRTHDAY CELEBRATED The 70th birthday of S. E. Kiiliar, Ksq , was celebrated at his home In this city Tuesday. For the past ten ysars ii has been the custom of his children and grandchildren to gather in commemoration of this happy oc casion About 23 children and srrand children were present and after par taking of a sumptuous dinner the chil dren presented their father with a nice Stetson hat as a present. After a short address by Mr. Killlan, he in eturn made a present of $5 00 in cash to each of his daughters and wife and Mrs. Mary Bryant, his only living sis ter.

Children Cry FOR FLETCHER S C AS TO R IA FAcmn mum at mi COLLEGE The Lend"-College Faculty re cital which was given on Mon day night was in every way a great success. The recital had been looked forward to with a great deal of pleasant anticipa tion. Naturally the chief in terest centered in Miss Wright, the new director of the piano forte department. The work of Miss Ha 11 man, the former di rector, had always been so splen didly succpssful that many ot her admirers and warm anxiously awaited the recita which was t»i introduce Mia.* Wright. After hearing the r • cital eveiy one agreed that Miss Wright is a perfect artist. Her technique leaves nothing to be desired, and her interpretation shows a true appreciation Er.d a perfect understanding of her wonderful art. Miss Shultz whose successful work of last year won for her & warm place in the hearts ot Hickory audiences was at hei best. Her work in expression was especially good in her in terpretation of a scene fron "Macbeth", and her singing wa* delightful as usual and was much appreciated by the audience. Miss Dorn, the new director ol the Art Department, success. **jHy assisted Miss Wright in two duets. The regret of the audi ence was that she did not see fit to appear as a soloist The recital as a whole was at. artistic treat, and Lenoir Collegt and Hickory are to be congratu lated on having such delightful artists in their midst.
