Reoorts of destruction wrought by the rains in Wilkes county con tinue to reach Washington, liep- resentative Doughton received a letter today from J. H. Berkley an attorney of Taylorsville, asking that he ask the federal government for at least $10,000 to put the road between Wilkesboro and Taylors ville in condition so that supply and mail may be sent into the coun ty which is cut off from the out side world. According to Mr. Merke the food supply in Wilkes county will not last more than a week, while it will take 100 men about 30 days to put the road between Wilkes boro and Taylorsville in conditions to be used by trains. The rail road between Wilkesboro and Win ston-Salem, Mr. Berke says, will not be in shape for train service within a month. Flood Briefs.

Several brought reports from Bridgewater yesterday and they lire very gloomy. Gibbs* store was washed away. Two barns be longing to Mr. Walker Lyerly went down the river. The rail road for miles was completely de stroyed and the land is washed clear of productive soil. Water was up to the second floor in the old Rutherford homeplace. If went to the porch of Mrs. J. R.

Well! “I see a man was arrested last night for taking notes at a lecture.” “You don’t mean it!” “Yes; they were banknotes, and he took them out of another man’s pock et”—St Louis Post-Dispatch, Should Sloan's Liniment Go Alon$? Of course it should! For after a strenu ous day when your muscles have been exercised to the limit an application of Sloan’s Liiniment will take the soreness and stiffness away and get you in fine shape for the morrow. You should al so use it for a sudden attack of tooth ache, stiff neck, backache, stings, bites and the many accidents that are inci dental to a vacation. “We would as soon leave our baggage as go on a vaca tion or camp out without Sloan’s Lini ment.” Writes one vacationist: “We use it for everything from cramps to soothache.” Put a bottle in your bag, be prepared and have no rescrets. The Twelve Jurymen. A prisoner is tried by twelve of his fellow countrymen. This custom is a thousand years old, and we get it from the vikings. The vikings divided their country up into cantons, which were subdivided into twelve portions, each under a chieftain. When a malefactor was brought to justice it was usual for each chieftain to select a man from the district over which he ruled and compel him to try the prisoner, the verdict of these twelve men being de clared by the Judge to be flnaL Why Endure Summer Colds? It isn’t necessary to have a stuffed head, running nose. To cough your head off as it were. All you need do is to use Dr. Bell’s Pine-Tar-Honey. I'he soothing and healing balsams open the clogged air passages and in a short time you get relief and start on the road to recovery. Your nose stops running, you cough less and you know you are get ting better. Get a bottle, use as direct ed. Keep what is left as a cough and cold insurance.

She can paint the most natural grapes and peaches you ever saw.” “Well, maybe looking at them will appease hunger Vhen there is no din ner ready.”—Kansas City JoumaL Look Good—feel Good. No one can either feel good nor look good while suffering from constipation Get rid of that tired, draggy, lifeless feeling by a treatment of Dr. Kin New Life PiUs.

There wasn’t a single passenger on the boat besides myself.” “That’s strange.” “Not at all. They were all married.” —Exchange. Taking BU Chances. It is a great risk to travel without a bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, as this prepara tion cannot be obtained on the trains or steamships. Attacks of bowel complaint are often sudden and very seyere, and everyone should go prepared for them. Obtainable everywhere. BE OPTIMISTIC Here^s Good News for Marion Residents.
