The only law now on the statute books regard ing mad doss is one requiring all mad dogs or other dogs bitten by mad doga to be killed under penalty of $50. But even this is; in many places a dead letter law. In many parts of the state sheep raising would be a profita ble industry were it not for the stray cur. In nearly the entire state hunting would be a pastime worth while were it not for this same unmuzzled, unlicensed, stray cur that makes his daily and nightly raids on our game. Eliminate such dogs and there will be more game to hunt. How much longer will wre continue to think more of worthless curs found around negro cabins than we do of the welfare, safety and prosperity of our most substantial citizens, or the future fertility of our soils? Strict muzzling, mak ing the owners responsible for all damage the dogs do, levying a reasonable license tax on all dogs, and devoting these tax receipts to the Laboratory for the treatment of people bitten would in a very short time stamp out hydropho bia, as is now the case of Eng land, Germany, and Australia. It -would permit the raising-of sheep ail over the state, and during the hunting season there would be game hunt. The Men Who Succeed. as heads of large enterprises are men of great energy.

Doan's Kidney Pills were used they cured. The story was told to Roxboro residents. Time has strengthened the evidence. Has proven the cure perma nent. The testimony is home testi mony The proof convincing. It can be iuvesujyatwd by Rox boro residents. R, L. Chappell, Main St., Rox boro, N.

What is a health? Is he a doctor employed to go about fumigating and tacking up yellow posters, announcing measles, scarlet fever and whooping cough here, there and yonder? Any dollar-and-a half-a day man can do that. Per haps he visits the jails, county homes, and a few indigent sick. But is that "health- work"? No. That is the work of a county physician and not of a health J Tf officer. If a community confines a man in jail, it should give him medical attention as well as food and clothing. Medical practice in county homes, etc., is charity work of a curative nature rather than health work. What, then, is the duty of a, health officer? "A health officer is one employed to reduce death rate." Bui what deaths can he reduce ?Preventable deaths, of course. Preventable deaths con stitute 40 per cent of all deaths occurring in the State. Prevent able deaths occur chiefly from consumption, typhoid' fever; die - At: !'. sCRI'kJ anu diarrheal diseases of infants.

This disease is both t preventable and eurabie, We lose in this county about 2.5 ' per thousand population every year from consumption. Thi average death rate from this disease in the registration area of the Unit ed States is only 1 .6 per thousand population. With moderately efficienl health work on this disease its fatality has been re duced to less than half.

Behold the worldliness and pride, The many temptations to sin, The ways of evil are open wide, So many are entering- therein . The possession of costly array To enhance the fading beauty Is the desire of many today, To the neglect of important duty. Let us the Divine commandments learn, Avoid carnality and worldly dis play. All pride, vanity and evil spurn, And walk in the true and right eous way. Dear Lord of wi&dom, mercy and love, Of justice, and judgement, too; Turn our affections on things above, . . On things which are holy and true. Teach us thy will to obey, To heed thy great command. Oh! keep us from pride's evil sway, ; Give us lovo for the true and inaho. Help us iu remember the iiht, That we as Christians should be. May we strive, with all our might To set sins captives free. Help us to 'consider, anda notft f or V get r ' Those around us who are ' going astray, - , " ... While there is time and mercy yet, i May they turn, without deiacf. May they heed God's loving call. Many in hisrbook are given. May they lay -aside evil and all That will keep them away from heaven. Help them to heed thy call to re pentance, May they seek with all the heart, MaV they shun that awful sen tence Pronounced against the wicked depart. Help us all, each fleeting hour, Ere our days on earth are passed To grow iu charity, faith and power. May we all reach heaven at last, And when our race on earth- is run, When death shali close our eyes, May we all be united as one In ourhome beyond the skies. Thad K. Jones. OLD HICKORY CHIPS. The delegates who supported Taft in the Chicago convention are finding front seats at the Fed eral pie counter. if it is Rooseveit'b idea to 'bust' the trusts by spending their mon ey in this campaign, he may suc ceed. A Connecticut man offeie to teach aviation by mail. We recom mend this method as the safest way. Among the "made in Chicago" products that are somewhat widely advertised is the ''bull moose party." It looks as if this was going to be a mighty poor business season at Beverly, Mass. . The Texas bull that butted a railroad train off the track must have been some kin to the bull moose which recently butted the Republican party off the track. Speaking of nature fakers, who ever hejrd of a bull moose at Armageddon? Gov. Colquitt seems determin ed to prove that old boast of Tex as that she could whip Mexico single handed. Mississippi cotton growers are offering 4 cents a piece for boll weevil, the swatting of which promises to eclipse the swatting of flies in that district. Mr. Lafollette has managed to display exceptional versatility in his role of a gentleman with a grievance. A female philosopher says as long'as a'woman can keep out of a man's reach she can keep him thinking she is worth reaching for. Senator Dixon makes the an nouncement that Taft will not get a single electoral vote. Now let people who have been afraid the election might be thrown into congress cease to worry. The average man doesn't keep a piece of money long enough to make it necessary to send it to the laundry CHILD HADJGZEMA MOTHER SAYS SAXO - SALVS MADE HER WELL, , "My little girl suffered with eczema cn-her hand 2 for nearly a year and reading about aso Salve-one day I bought a tube nil d feund it helped her.
