Easily In the Lead.
Louise Jennings, Elsie Hathaway
and Florence Brlntnall are three
schoolmates whose Indulgent parents
provided a picnic for each of them, I
giving carte blanche as to the num j
of their guests and the manner of
entertainment on the beach. Three
parties In ten days means a lot to '
young ladies of the tender age of
eight. But they recovered quickly j
enough from the fatigue. Followed ,

"I think," said Lou. "ours was a ;
▼ery nice party. And we had ice I
cream twice, if you remember."
"Oh, 1 don't know," quoth Elsie —

—"I notice all my ©tests rode 'round
on the carrousel al often as they
wanted."

In her pretty newHrock sister Mabel
felt quite proud as she sat on the front

on the sidewalk.
After a time one little boy came up
to talk to her and to admire. In his
rough little way, her bright shiny
■hoes and pink sash.
"Bee my nice square-cut waist," ex
claimed the girlie, "and my nice coral
beads! Don't you wish you wuz a
girl?"
"No slr-ee," replied the boy. "I
wouldn't want to be any girl at all,
because lookie how much more neck
you haf to wash."
WRONG SORT
Perhaps Plain Old Meat, Potatoes and
Bread May Be Against Yeu > I
for a Time.
A change to the right kind of food
can lift one from a sick bed. A lady
In Welden, 111., says:
"Last spring I became bed-fast with
severe stomach troublea accompanied
by sick headache. I got worse and
worse until I became so low I could
scarcely retain any food at all, al
though I tried about every kind.
"I had become completely discour
aged, and given up all hope, and
thought I waa doomed to starve to
death, until one day my husband, try
ing to find something I could retain,
brought home some Qrape-Nuts.
"To my surprise the food agreed
with me, digested perfectly and with
out distress. I began to gain strength
at once. My flesh (which had been
flabby), grew firmer, my health! im
proved in every way and every day,
and in a very few weeks I gained 20
pounds in weight.
"I liked Grape-Nnta so well that for
four months I ate no other food, and
always felt aa well satisfied after eat
ing aa if I bad aat down to a fine ban
quet
"I had no return of the miserable
sick stomach nor of the headache*,
that I used to have whea I ate other
food. lam now a well -woman, doing
all my own work again, and feel that
life ia worth living.
"Grape-Nuts food haa been a God

life; and my two little boys have
thriven on it wonderfully." Name

condition of state, private and savings 1
banks in North Carolina on June 7,

shows total resources on that date |
of $63,2 10,803.32. The increase of re

Some features of the report are an
increase in loans and discounts

Believed Travis Will be Appointed.
A development in the contest for
the appointment at the hands of
Governor Kitchin to the Corporation
Commissionership to succeed the
lamented H. C. Brown is the an
nouncement by President Edgar E.
Broughton of the North Carolina Re
tall Merchants' Association that the
officers and directors of the ussocia
tion have pledged their support to E.
L. Harris, secretary of the state as
| eoclatlon, Raleigh, and that the local
associations in every part of the state
5 will be urged to take action in the in
! terest or Mr. Harris on the ground
I that he will represent the shipping
Interests of the merchants and is well
! qualified for the place. He was
j notified that the Salisbury associa-
I tion endorsed Mr. Harris. With the
| backing of the Retail Merchants' asso-
I ciatlon, Mr. Harris will be a formid
| able candidate.
Many believe that the Governor
I will appoint his life-long friend, E. L.
! Travis of Halifax, who is known to be
an active candidate. Mr. Travis has
been in Raleigh at frequent Intervals
for several weeks past and seems to
be steadily recuperating from the
wound ho received In Scotland Neck
when he and Governor Kitchin's
brother and th» chief of police were
shot down by an insane man. At the
Governor's office the only response to
inquiries as to candidates is that
there are "many."
With the return of Governor
Kitchin to the city delegations will
begin to arrive and evidences as to
who the active candidates are will
begin to multiply.
Reward of SSOO For Murderer.
As the result of a gunshot wound
sustained Monday morning at the
hands of a negro knoftn as John Huff,
whom the officer had under arrest
and while returning to the city In an
automobile, Patrolman E. C. McConnel,
one of the most daring and efficient
officers of the Ashevllle police fore*
died. Connell was conscious up to
the last and made a brave fight for
life, but the odds were greatly against
him and he met the grim reaper as
fearlessly as he had met his duty.
At the regular weekly session of the
city council and as the result of
strong pleas for. rewards, tempting
enough to bring the murderer to Jus
tice, the board of aldermen oecided
to offer a reward of SSOO. Many pri
vate citizens have attested their
willingness to raise the reward to a
■till larger amount and it is believed
it will soon be raised to SI,OOO.
——
Commissioner Causee Arrest.
Insurance Commissioner James R.
Toung said that he had procured the
arrest of E. E. Whitehead at High
I'oint, who was representing without
license the Standard Home Company,
of Birmingham, Alabama, an invest
ment company somewhat like the
building and loan associations in this
state. A license, required by section
4505 of the State Insurance Laws, had
been refused and the agent got what
he might have expected. Whitehead
was tried and bound over to the
Superior Court
To Camp Together at Morehead City.
The Second Infantry, North Caro
lina national guard, under the com
mand of Col. H. C. Bragaw of this
city, and about sixty enlisted men
of the First, Second Fourth Vir

rifle practice and field work from

Finest Crop In Twenty Years. *
Wilson. —Mr. John W. Blount, assis
tant clerk of Nash Superior Court,'
was in Wilson, and when questioned
as to the condition of the crops and
the outlook for the farmers in /'Good
Old Nash," his reply was: "The crops
are the finest I have seen for twenty
years and the outlook for a heavy har
vest looks good to me; that Is, of cot
ton and corn; ond If there Is no set
back the farmers truly have something
to be thankful for. Tobacco seems
to be a failure, and my predictions
are that the warehouses in Rocky
Mount and Wilson, combined, will not
seel more than ten million pounds
this season."
Mr. Blount also says, "The election
of Mr. S. E. Austin aB superintendent
of public Instruction of Nash county
by the board of education which met
lafct Monday In Nashville, was a wlso
cue. Mr. Austin succeeds Mr. R. E.
Hansom, who held the office for two

CHURCH LIGHTED BY WIND
Novel Method Employed to lllumlnata
Sacred Edifice Near Birming
ham, England.
Probably one of the most novel
methods of providing lighting for a
church Is that employed at the old
Cosely church, situated a few miles
out froth Birmingham, England.
About 600 feet from the church is
the mouth of a disused coal mine,
around which are huge piles of tail
ings. Upon one of these a steel tower
60 feet high Is erected and a windmill
18 feet in diameter Installed. At the
base of the tower fn a small house Is
an electric generator which Is run by
the mill. The current thus generated
feeds 27 lamps in the church, two In
the chapel, two In the vestry ; operates
a motor for pumping the pipe organ,
and also lights 30 lamps In the rec
tory. A storage battery In the rectory
Is a part of this unique lighting plant.
NATURALLY.
Hlx—Did you notify the police of
the robbery?
Dix —Yes, and I am expecting at
any moment to hear that they have
arrested the wrong man.
