Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi ness, coated tongue, foul taste and foul breath—always trace them to torpid liver; delayed, fermenting food In the bowels or sour, gassy stomach. Poisonous matter clogged In the in testines, Instead of being cast out of the system Is re absorbed Into the blood. When this poison reaches the delicate brain tissue It causes con gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick ening headache Cascarets Immediately cleanse the •tomach, remove the sour, undigested food atfd foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poisons In the bowels. A Cascaret tonight will surely straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep—a lOcent box from your druggist means your head clear, stomach sweet and your liver and bowels regular for months. Adv. WANTED A PERMANENT BOND Mlta of Beven Years Had Worked Out Solution of Problem to Hla Satiafactlon. He Is the merest mite, only seven, and his widowed mother was married the other day for the second time to "daddy"—a really very nice person who had long been fa*t friends with the stepson-elect and had no idea of being an Interloper. There are problems to be figured out —even when you are only seven. "Mother," Asked the mite, "who are you going to marry when daddy dies?" "Why, my dear," she replied, "what a curious question." "Well," responded the mite, "when-, father died you married daddy—and now, when daddy dies, I know Just who 1 want you to marry." "Why, my little son!" exclaimed the perplexed mother. "You shouldn't speak like that. Daddy Isn't going to die" "Yes mother, I know, but he might die. Then, If he ever does, mother, I want you tp promise me that you'll marry me—'cause then —then, you see —we would never hnve to be sepa rated." Thus, even at seven, does a hear* know Its own sorrow. A New Cure. A bedpost has not generally been regarded so much as an eye-opener as an e"e-shutter, but If a story that comes from Boston Is true—and what story from Boston was ever untrue — our should go to school to the handmaids of Morpheus. Mr Frank H. Hayes. \yho has been stone blind for nine years, so the tale runs, struck his head violently against the bedpost on arising, arid was astonished a few mltfutes afterward to find that his sight had been entirely restored Wo do not know whether the virtue of this cure lay In the bedpost or in the fact that it was a Boston bedpost; but If It was really effected In this way there would seem to be a good deal In such Inanimate objects not heretofore dreamed of In the philosophy of optics. On«» of the morals of this modern mir acle would seem to be that "knocking" Is sometimes n very efficacious proc ess, and that the only way to make some folks see things Is by knocking them into their heads —Baltimore Sun. Heartless Prophetess. "Harold says that after we are mar ried he will want me to dress like a . queen." ——- "Yes," replied Miss Cayenne. "And for a while he will be as proud as a king After that he will grumble like a taxpayer." % THREE REASONS Each With Two Lega and Ten Fingers. A Boston woman who Is a fond moth er writes an amusing article about her experience feeding her boys. Among other things she says: "Three chubby, rosy-cheeked boys, Bob, Jack, and Dick, respectively, are three of our reasons for using and recommending the food, Grape-Nuts, for these youngsters have been fed on Grape-Nuts since infancy, and often between meals when other children would have been given candy. "1 gave a package of Grape-Nuts to a neighbor whose 3-year-old child was a weazened little thing, ill half the time. The little tot ate the Grape-Nuts and cream greedily and the mother continued the good work, and it was not long before a truly wonderful change manifested itself in the child's face and body.-- The results were re markable, even for Grape-Nuta. "Both husband and I use Grape Nuts every day and keep strong and well and have three of the finest, healthiest boys you can find in a day's march." Many mothera instead of destroying the children's stomachs with candy and cake give the youngsters a hand ful of Grape-Nuts when they are beg ging for something in the way of aweets. The result la soon shown in greatly increased health, strength and mental activity. Name given by Postum Co, Battle -Creek. Mich. —— Look la pkgs, for the famous Utile bopk, "The Road to Wellvtlle."

SIO,OOO Simply for the Aaklng. It was a happy group of ladles who came out of the office of Colonel Wood, *tate auditor, for they had In, their possession a warrant for SIO,OOO which was appropriated In 1913 for the building of a home for worth* women descendants of Confederate veterans. This action, following a meeting of the council of state, which had been called at the request of the ladjes who were there In the Inter est of the appropriation, the ladles could have gotten this money nearly two years ago.

The Senate voted by • big Majority against the Joint resolution to limit the present session of the Legislature to 40 days. This was after two-hours' discussion in which Gardner, Gilliam and others urged the adoption and Senators Mill, Hobgood and others op i posed it as a vain and Impossible I thing to accomplish. The action of the Senate will probably cause the House to not call up the resolution at that end of the Capitol at all.

Ot. the other hand advocates of the meas ure agrued that the making of two circuits was no more than having two religious conferences, dioceses or oth er divisions for the better prosecution of the work to be furthered. The vital statistics bill, that stirred such opposition ss working terrible hardship on remote sections through preventing the burial of the dead un til official reports had been made by the physician of the death was amend el to avert Interference with burials and to merely penalize the physician if the death is not reported within 10 days, it passed In this form. The ever-present fish question stlr red the house for more than an hour through the debate of the Meeklns hill to exempt Tyrell county from the jurisdiction of the fish commis sioner.

Mooresville.—The Mooresville Co- Operative Creamery wan formally opened here with public exercises In the graded school auditorium, follow ed by a butter-making demonstration during the afternoon. It will be re called that about 18 months ago an effort waa made In Iredell county to establish a creamery, but owing to the fact that the cream routes were not organized and there was not sufficient butter-fat gathered at this point to maintain one, it was deemed advisable not to attempt starting such an insti tution until routes were thoroughly or ganized and the cream obtainable. Farmers began at once with their dog ged determination to succeed , and with a united effort, the creamery was launched. At 11 oclock Mayor Frontls. present ed in a happy manner Dr. D. H. Hill, president of the A. £ M. College of Raleigh, who spoke for 40 minutes of the practical methods for doing things, employing the scientific worn as thb big essential. Improved methods and science have come to put a new aspect on the whole farming system and laws that control productions are now employed. Doctor Hill made a pleasing Illustra tion of the "practical" man who want ed employment, but knew nothing whatever of scientific or modern methods of weeding out the unprofit able work on the farm. In his clos ing words he said there were only three things to do that must be done to attain the highest efficiency of prof it and results on the farm. For in stance, select better seeds, prepare and cultivate your soil better and fertlize with a view to preserving the fertility. He referred to the man who under old methods raised only 10 bushels of corn to the acre and who under the method of selecting lils seed, brought from the same acre 20 bushels ot corn. He said there should not be an acre of poor land in North Carolina, where cow peas will grow in the sum mer time and clover In the winter, thereby keeping the boII from washing and nursing it as nature had Intend ed it. Doctor Hill paid a high tribute to Iredell county and her progressive spirit. J. A. Arey, formerly county demon strator but now with the I'nited States Agricultural Department, made a brief talk In which he referred to the early agitation of the creamery for Iredell county and how willingly the men of this community took hold of It.
