Joy- ner gave a pie party ac iviuiien s Cross Roads for the benefit of the school there which she teaches. It was the first affair of the kind held in this county, and patrons and friends of the school came in large numbers to witness the manner in which it was conducted and to do their part in helping to make it a success. The pies, which had been contri buted by many of those in attend ance, were each numbered, and sold by number to the highest bidder. Each number corresponded to the name of the person who had made the pie, and the purchaser was sup posed to eat his pie with the one that made it. This feature of the affair proved quite interesting and excit ing. Mr. Ashby W. Dunn, the auc tioneer, announced that no bids should exceed one dollar, and that all bids of that amount would be highly appreciated, and any under that amount acceptable. Another pleasing feature of the occasion was a voting contest for the most popular and beautiful young lady. Miss Liza Gray, the winner in this contest, was present ed a handsome six-layer cake. The proceeds from the party and the voting contest amounted in round numbers to Twenty-five dollars. Many people came from Scotland Neck to attend the party, and they all report the occasion to have been a most pleasant one. Miss Joyner is to be congratulated for the pro nounced success of the party, and for the good work she is doing in the interests of her school. Charlie Lamb, the polite and ac commodating clerk at the Coast Line depot, has given up his position and will devote his time to agriculture. He will be succeeded by Charlie Dunn, the popular and energetic selesman for Mr. J. W. Allsbrook, while the all-round and thorough bred sport, Charlie Steptoe; will hold the fort in the place of Charlie Dunn. Charlie Lamb will farm, Charlie Dunn will railroad, Charlie Steptoe will sell groceries and dis pense soft drinks. A trio of Charlies. la. 1-12-iOt t Mr. J. W.

The concern started in 1808 and has been at the business ever since, so there is nothing ex perimental about their plan.

They only give tempor ary relief and their reaction is harm ful and sometimes more annoying than constipation. They in no way effect a cure and their lendency is to weaken the already weak organs with which they come in contact. We honestly believe that we have tha best constipation treatment ever devised. Our faith in it is so strong that we sell it on the positive guar antes that it snail not cost the user r cent if it does not give entire satisfaction and completely remedy constipation. This preparation is called Rexall Orderlies. These are prompt, soothing rnd most effective in action. They are made of a- re cpnt chemical discovery. Their principal ingredient is odorless tnf'p!ess and colorless. Combined with other well known ingredients long established for their usefulness in the treatment of constipation, it forms a tablet which is eaten just like candy. They may be talten at any time, either day or night, with out icar of their causing any incon venience whatever. They do not mine, purge nor cause nausea. They acc without causing any pain or ex cesalve looseness of the bowels. They are ideal for children, weak, delicate persons and aged people as well as fcr the most hearty person. They come in two size parages 12 tablets 10 cents, lo tablets L cents. Remember you can obtai them only at our store, The Rexa Store. E. T. Whitehead Company North Carolina Halifax County.
