This Twenty-sixth Sena torial district includes the counties of Moore and Randolph, the present sena tor being the lion. D. Held Parker of Trinity. Our Representative district is the county of Moore only, and at the present time we are represented by lie v. W. II. II. Lawhon of Carthage. Wi: print in another column a letter on Pinehurst, from the pen of Jno. J. Metzger, Esq., President Judge of the 29th Judicial District of Pennsylvania. Coming from a man so widely known it will no doubt prove interesting to our many readers. Mrs. Bailey was reading to the children one Sunday afternoon, and came to the passage "Paul may plant, and Apollos may water, but God giveth the increase." Shortly after, she heard little Mabel say ing to herself, "Paul may plant Apol linaria water, but God giveth the grease." FINDS HEALTH IN PINEHURST. A Winter Itt'sldent Tel In of the Benefits and Pleasures Ki: Joyed In Our Village. PlNi:iiLUST,N. C, Dec. 17, 1897. Editou of The Outlook: My Dkaii Sir, Prior to my coming to Pinehurst I was in very poor health caused principally by exposure and over work. I became very much discouraged and despondent in consequence of my physical condition, and had about lost all hope of ever regaining, my health. Nearly every person I met talked dis couragingly. Finally my physical! ad vised me that I required absolute rest and a less rigorous climate than we had in the North. He recommended ' Pine hurst as the place possessing the neces sary elements to accomplish the pur pose. I came here rather reluctantly, how ever, and I might say somewhat preju diced ; but I have been very agreeably disappointed. The improvement in my physical condition is simply marvelous. Upon my arrival the landlord, as he afterward informed me, had serious doubts as to the propriety of receiving me (you know consumptives are not al lowed here, which is perfectly proper). My appearance to the eye of a layman indicated that my days were numbered. Today one not having kown me in the past would suppose I was not only entirely well, but that I never could have had any very serious illness, and I now feel positive that my complete and permanent restoration to health is assured. While I have not yet recovered my full strength, the disease itself is conquered and I ascribe my present happy physical condition chiefly to the climate and the conditions by which I am surrounded here. Pinehurst is a beautiful and attrac tive place, and seems to become more so, the longer you stay. It is what I call a little paradise in appearance. Here, too, you can have absolute rest, which is impossible in many summer or winter resorts. You may, if fond of company, find here what you desire, without fear of coming in contact with unworthy as sociates. If fond of games such as whist, billiards, lawn tennis, croquet, etc., your desire will be gratified, as you will find plenty to join you in these amusements. All while here are on a social equality, and formal introductions are not even necessary, for the reason above stated. There is a fine theatrical hall just being completed which would do credit to our northern cities, and a number of tine musicians are here to gratify those having a taste for music. An immense store with a large stock of general merchandise is conveniently situated in the centre of the town. A restaurant where meals can be obtained at what might be termed merely nominal prices, with food of the best quality, is also centrally located. This enables any one who wishes to live inexpensively to do so, as rooms may be obtained in some of the cottages for a small figure. Those who wish to keep house can be accom modated with pretty cottages, large or small, having all the modern improve ments and conveniences. Others who desire good hotel accommodations can find the best to be found anywhere, at the Holly Inn. During the past season it has been remodeled and enlarged to double its former capacity, so that it will i easily accommodate two hundred guests. The rooms are larger and better than are usually found at resorts, and the man agers, Messrs. Atwood & Sise, are cour teous gentlemen who take the utmost pains to . make their guests happy and comfortable. Nothing is too much for them to do to contribute to the pleasure of their guests, and this is equally true of the good landlady, Mrs. Atwood. Everything in this hotel, including the cuisine, is the very best, and nothing is wanting to make one most comfortable and contented. There are many other things of which I might speak, such as the elegant read ing room, the library with its thousand vol umes, and the school house containing all the modern improvements, but so much has been said by others, and as my letter is already too long, I will for the present close with the remark that one finds here not only the necessaries, but all the luxuries and conveniences that can be desired. Jxo. J. Metzger. Instructor. The services of a teacher of Mathemat ics, German, Latin, Botany, Geology aiul English Literature can be obtained for pupils in Pinehurst, provided a sufficient number of boys or young .women apply. The gentleman is a graduate of Harvard and former professor in one of the New York colleges. Aside from his scholarly ability he is a very conscientious gentle man, whose influence could not be other wise than elevating upon the character of his pupils.
