The annual banquet of the New York Chamber of Commerce has attracted much attention throughout the country on ac count of the chief speaker being Secretary of State John Hay, who was expected to give an out line of our foreign policy in his speech. The banquet was held Tuesday night at Delmouico's. The able Baltimore Sun thus summarizes his speech which may be taken as a forecast of the ad ministration's policy regarding foreign affairs: The briefest expression of our rule of conduct is, perhaps, the Monroe.Doctrine and the Golden Rule. With this simple chart we can hardly go far wrong. . 1 think I may sav that our sis ter Republics to the south of us are perfectly convinced of the sincerity of our attitude. We no more want their territory than we covet the Mountains of the Moon. We have striven, on the lines laid down by Washington , to cultivate friendly relations with j all powers, but not to take part in the formation of groups or combinations among them. We have kept always in view the fact that wearepre-eminenth a peace-loving people; that our normal activities are in the direc tion of trade and commerce. We believe that a fair field and no favor is all we require. We consider our interests in the Pacific ocean as great now as those of any other power and destined to indefinite develop ment. Next in order will come a Pacific cable and an Isthmian canal. The President, to whom you have given your invaluable trust and confidence, like his now im mortal predecessor, is as incapa ble of bullying a strong power as he is of wronging a weak one. Our Cotton Will be Needed. The decline in cotton prices the last three weeks, amounting to about one cent, per pound, is naturally a disappointment to growers, yet there is no uote of real discouragement. The down turn is due largely to bearish speculators in foreign markets, who exaggerate the situation and claim more for our southern crop volume than can be realized. The movement from first hands is liberal, as is to be expected at this time of year. Yet conserva tive opinion points to an ulti mate yield of less than 11,000, 000 bales, rather than more. What is of still greater import ance, our great staple will all be needed There is industrial de pression in Germany, but this means increased activities at spinning centers in L'ngland and; tne United States. The consump tive demand for cotton goods should prove at least a normal in the old world, and better than that here at home, where there is general prosperity among all classes. The southern cotton spinners' association, in annual convention at Atlanta this week, is very wisely taking up in earnest the question of. increasing our foreign outlet for American made goods.?Farm and Home. Luck in Thirteen. Bv sending 13 miles Wm. Spirey, of Walton Furnace,. Vt., got a box of Bucklen's Arnica Salve, that whollycured a horrible fever sore on his leg. Nothing else could. Positively cures bruises, felons, ulcers, eruptions, boils, burns, corns and piles. Only 25c. j Guaranteed by Hood Bros., drug gists. POLENTA NEWS. Preaching at Oakland next Sunday morning and night. Red Hill public school opened last Monday, Miss Nellie John sou in charge. Mr. J. ('. Holt will occupy the residence at Oakland recently vacated by Mr. Jos. Parrish. The hog cholera is still preva lent in this section. A number of futteuing pigs have died out re cently. Oakland Sunday school will not have a Christmas tree this year, but will have an entertain ment during the holidays. In the early part of the new year Mr. L. T. Hyrd and family will leave this section, and locate near Willow Springs, in Wake county. Mr. Jos. Parrish and family left last week for his new home, located on Black Creek, where he will continue his saw mill busi ness. Success to him. A number of our farmers are sowing wheat this week, some are fallowing in rye. Less cotton and more grain should be the slogan of the agriculturists in the future. Mr. J. E. Jones and wife, have both been quite sick for the past ten days. Mr..Tones is sufficient ly convalescent to be out attend ing to his business. Mrs. Jones is still confined to her bed, though improved. It is rumored that Rev. Mr. Betts, of Raleigh, N. C., will ac cept the pastorate of Baptist Centre at an early date Several years ago he was in charge of the above named church, and was greatly beloved by all of the peo ple to whom he preached. The cotton crop is woefully short in all this countyv- ' hi one hundred acres this year .Vlr. Jet Wood will not get over eight bales. Last year lie got forty bales on same land; this year Mr. Rabe Coats gets two bales; off of seventeen acres as against eight bales last year off of same number of acres; Mr Lou Coats will get two bales off of fifteen acres, last year he got eight bales off of same laud, and so the com parison might tie made with ail of our f win- rs I'uh crop will certainly nut be a tt ird of l ist year's yield.

Ask any agent Southern Railway for full itiformatii m Getting Thin is all right, if you are too fat; and all wrong, if too thin already. Fat, enough for your habit, is healthy; a little more, or less, is no great harm. Too fat, consult a doctor; too thin, persistently thin, no matter what cause, take Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil. I here are many causes of get ting too thin; they all come under these two heads: over work and under-digestion. Stop over-work, if you can; hut, whether you can or not, take Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil, to balance yourself with your work. You can't live on it?true?but, by it, you can. There's a limit, however; you'll pay for it. Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil is the readiest cure for "can't eat," unless it comes of your doing no work?you can't long be well and strong, without some sort of activity. * The genuine has < this picture on it, take no other.
