All food taken Into the stomach which falls of perfect digestion ferments and swells the stomach, puffing It up against the heart.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.- Advertising is a system of educa tion. Sunshine makes brain as well as brawn. . ' , The time is past when a mdir.iWtn do just like pa did and succeed!'' Education is a slow growth. It is gathered in small quantities and is acquired little by little. Intelligence coin mu tidu respeel, whether the person who possesses it wears broud cloth or overalls. The class of instruction is better where there is local taxation or a graded school for then only the best teachers are employed A tax of 25 cents on the 100 valuation of propel ty and 75 cents on the poll will cost three fourths of the people several limes less than puying tuition. The growlers have closed up f the present. We haven t heard any one in ten davs send up a wail of woe, but some people can only see the dark side. The merchant who expects to jump to success at one bound will accomplish but little. A sing! advertisement will not make you known permanently but you should make a campaign of publicity. Congressman Page tells the Raleigh Post he has found out how deep the Mooro county sand is. Recently a well was bored in Aberdeen and after boring 210 feet through the sand thcic was found a layer of slate. The spirit of progress is seen everywhere in this great Piedmont section. The biggest undertaking ever undertaken in this section is that of the Whitney Kediution in developing power at the narrows on the Yadkin. Development and improvement is seen on every hand. The time has been in North Caio linahen the children had no friends in the geueral assembly not so now. Other interests were represented, but there was no one who saw the uplifted pleading hands and heard the suiull voices of the thousands of children. It is very different now, the children are not forgotten and their voices are heard and heeded. The fresh air fad is the most sen sible fad which has struck the country in a loug time. It is now held by almost everybody that Dr Ozone is the finest physician in the world. Fresh air is prescribed by physicians and everybody else as a cure for almost every ill. The fresh air cure is the most marvelous and consistently dependable of any of the fads which have prevailed. The History of the First North Carolina Reunion, at Greensboro, N C, October 11th, 12th and 13th, 1903, is the title of a beautiful and interesting volume compiled and and edited by O S Brudsbaw, Esq, of the Greensboro bar. Jos J Stone & Co are the printers, and the print ing and binding are done in the highest art. Mr Brudshaw has prepared with care and ability this beautiful souvenir volume. The commissioners of Wake coun ty are compelling the collection of the merchant's tax for 1904. The clerk of the board of county com mission bos furnished a list of them in schedule "B," and taken the sheriff's receipt for the same. The merchants, as yet, have not list ed their gross sales for 1904. The last Legislature abolished this tax. The trouble ii that merchants have not paid for last year. They have not paid in Randolph.

Tafl Sitting on tha Lid The Chicago Election. Hearst Wants New York to Follow Suit, Freight Rates Reduced. Rebates. Spcclnl Correspondence of the Cuuner. Washington, P. C, April 2-t. Everybody has been reading the President's speeches on his trip through the -great State of IVxhs, and the Southwest. Some of them have been good and some have been indifferent, but nearly all of them have lieen inconsistent. The only consistent thing he has done or sun is that he sticks to the text of war and the war spirit. In nearly every one of his sweeties helms apostro phized the war spirit as the only thing in this country worth wlnlt The "big stick" has been in evident; ever since he left Washington. II talks one way and writes another, toucan figure whether a man is honest or stating his honest opinions or not when he writes one way the quiet of his library with thought and conviction to swuv him, and talks another before an audience that he is attempting to please. For in stance, in Louisville, Ky., in his first speech after he left U asliingtoti, the I resident fair), pointing to u statue of Jefferson: "I am glad of the spirit that, nia'ies yon with to dedi- e slatiies like this or JetTeison i I ke l he great statue of Clay liii-nle that ronrt. House. I here one statue Unit I wiah member!) of the National Congress from Ken tucky to see put up by the National (iovernnii ut, and that is a national statu" of Andrew .Jackson and the victors of the battle of New Ot leans." Vet Mr lbiosevlt has written down in his historical essavs that Jefferson win "the most incitpubl- executive that ever It I led the execu tive chair," mid that his influence was "on the w hole, distinctly evil." And of Jackson s administration, be say 8 that "the publii! service then took its lirst and greatest step in that downward career of progiessive debasement and deterioration which has only been checked in our days." What does be find to admire in "the spiiit which dedicates monuments to men of whom he bolus such opin ions? This shows that he not only has been inconsistent, but his oratory has been of the bifurcated kind, He makes one sort of speech about the South when he is talking to South erners, aud another sort of apt eel. about the South wli.-o he is talking to Northerners. This is natural I v calculated to raise m the Southern mind a serious question as to the President's sincerity. The honored head of a nation should he of one mind, whether he is speaking to Un people of Massachusetts, or to the people of South Carolina. So far. his public deliverances have not squared with this very simple and obvious rule. The President announced before he left on his vacation tli.it be had left "Taft sitting on the lid." While the avoirdupois of the Secretnry of War would indicate his capacity for keeping the lid on quite successful ly, his career in the Philippines would not indicate that as an admin istrator his control of affairs is a thing to be desired. Of all men wh" have come prominently into the public eye in the lust eight yeais Mr iaft probably has fulled most signul- ly to live up to his advance notices. The country was given to under stand when we went to the Philip pines that be was a phenomenon in the way of executive ability and de votion in duty. Nevertheless, his administration of affairs in the islands developed nothing more im pressive than the urgent necessity foi a censorship that should keep the country in lgnorauce of what was reully being done, tie "sat on the lid" in the Philippines so succssful ly that to this day only those who have talked to returning soldiers and sailors who were there during his tegime have any idea of what was reully concealed under the lid. If the country generally nnuerstooil more thoroughly his l inlippiue record, the honored Secretary of War is about the last member of the cabi net that it would select to act as the understudy for' Mr Roosevelt while he is chasing coyotes aud jack rab bits. - The flood of Jefferson day oratory shows conclusively that the democ racy of Judge Alton B Parker aud William ,J Mryanis as far apart as ever it was and that there seems to be no chance of them ever getting together. The people will have to take their choice betweeu these two brands of democracy, aud it does not require a man possessed of second sight to tell which one will be chosen by the vast majority of the people I be Jelterson Day uuuiiuct at Chicago came nearest the ideas that Jefferson believed in as' voiced by the speakers there than any held in the country and was reully a iolli- fication over the victory won by the there is not one of them that giws anything approaching the service the people have a light to expect.

As 1 in not a puzzle editor, 1 gave it up. orkiiigmen, labor unions, rail road employes are coming here to protest against rate reduction because they think it is going to hurt them.

Indeed, noth ing in ull the recorded history of mankind has lieen more patheLc, more heroic, more deserving of ad miration and sympathy than the ut- titude of I he south since 18H5. As lute would have it, their defeat war was the smallest of their woes because il could neither threaten ror brin' dishonor. But the new con test with lartisan rancor, with military power, with theft and rob. Iiery, with poverty and the inforced domination of u race lately in slave ry foiced us it was without time for recovery and that, too, in their own homes, required a courage little lees than superhuman. ".Maintaining the struggle with the one great and almost insoluble problem of our time, working nnder the most serious difficulties, coura geous in the face of many dis couragements, thcs people have manfully represented the hopes, the ideals and the tiuditious of their country and the logic as well as tlie heroism, of our national history. If any man is so foolish us to usit why llie Democratic party has been true to the south, in its tune of trial, and why this attachment has been re quited, it must be because ho knows little of history and less of human nature."
