Some of these same arms of the law privately ex press the hope that something will be done to liberalize the State’s liquor laws at the coming session. 9m . ■ RIDING A WAVE —Unless some dark-horse 3teps out into the light, Thad Eure and Leßoy Martin will be unopposed lor reflection as principal clerics of the House and Senate re spectively.

Within the bowl is another bit of magic, an electric lamp, newly de veloped, which (because of two fila ments) gives three different intensities of light at the turn of a switch. For sewing and the reading of fine print for long periods, the lights of the auxiliary candles, holding bulbs of from 40 to 60-watts, are added to that of the central bulb. “How about using a single lamp at the end of the davenport, rather than at the back?,” I hear someone ask. Well, that depends on your davenport. If it is too long the lamp standard would have to be excessively and awkwardly high to shed its light the entire length. End table lamps can of course be used, but are not always practical for the away-from-the-wal! location in a smaller room where space must be conserved. If the davenport is of the Love Seat type, a lamp similar to the smaller one sketched, and using a 100-watt lamp, may be placed on a table behind it. T his is also an approved I. E. S.

He was educated at Cal vert College, Maryland, also at Le high University, Pennsylvania, re turning to his native town where he faithfully applied himself to study law, with Captain Oct. Coke and later with Aug. M. Moore. Receiv ing his license in January, 1878, “he commenced practice in partnership with his second preceptor with whom he remained two years; he then re moved to Hyde, but in twelve months returned to Edenton, where he has ever since enjoyed a large portion of the business at this point. Mr. Leary gives his undivided at tention to his clients’ interests and has become recognized as an advo cate of ability and a lawyer of learn ing. He married a daughter of James Woodard, of Edenton, by whom he has a family of two boys. He is a vestryman of the Episcopal Church, takes an active interest in public af fairs, he has been town Intendent several times and personally is an in telligent, ready and entertaining conversationalist.
