North Carolina, says the New York
Herald, is a state of small cities. After
a long and honored existence being
one of the original thirteen the State
has not as yet gathered 21,000 persona
under one municipal government.
Though the State has a population of
1,647,947 and 347 incorporated places,
only thirty-five of these have a popula
tion of more 2,000. Of these twenty
1hree have less than 5,000 inhabitants,
six more than 5,000 but less than 10,000
and six have more than 10,000." Wil
mington leads with 20,976, Charlotte
comes next, with 18,091; then follow
Asheville, 14,694; Raleigh 18,643; Greens
boro 10,035, and Winston 10,108. Though
the State has Increased In population
218.197 in the laat ten years, it has been
quite evenly dlstribued, and there is
no strong tendency of the growth of a
large city.

A SAILOR'S MONEY.
At a seacoast town a young man was
about to ship before the mast.
"What's your name?" asfced the skip
per. "John Smith."
"Well, Smith, for fear o accidents
some one had better take your money.
Who'll you leave it with?"
A .girl was leaning out of a window
above. She looked down and smiled.
"Oh, I see!" exclaimed the skipper.
"You're going to take it, miss. Well,
you know where to go. Old Tom Price
Is the owner an the name of the wessel
the Saucy Lass. Come on, Smith. No
more hankyin. Your sweetheart'll take
your money." And he seized the newly
shipped by the arm.
"No, no," she cried in confusion. "I
do not know the gentleman. I I"
--i.i..ofiv Smith, with the hand of
theTklpper Oh Tig arm, had" been lur
ried out of earshot, and before sue
could reach the door the two had van
ished down the row.
Eight weeks later the sailor returned.
His money had been kept for him, but
the glri had gone.
On his homeward path he stopped to
buy a morning paper. Quite undis
turbed, he began to look it over. Sud
denly he caught his breath. His gaze
was riveted on an advertisement that
read thus:
"George Neal is earnestly requested
to communicate with Messrs. Furness
& Wapp, when he will hear of some
thing to his advantage."
Before noon that day John Smith
was on his way to the city. As he burst
Into the office a carefully dressed old
gentleman, wearing a pair of gold rim
med glasses, stepped forward to greet
him. This he did by nearly shaking
his arm off.
"Why, my dear George," he cried,
"how glad I am to see you! We have
been advertising for you all over the
country. How is it you haven't seen
our advertisement before?"
In a few words the young man told
his tale. The old solicitor listened
with much interest; then his face grew
grave.
"So you have not heard the news,
my boy?" he said. "Your uncle is dead."
"Dead!" repeated George Neal sadly.
"And we parted in anger .merely be
cause I refused to follow the profes
sion he had chosen for me."
"If we thought oftener of the king
of terrors, there would be fewer quar
rels," said the lawyer kindly; "but he,
too, was sorry, George, though 'wbb

"And that condition?" said George

"Now, my dear boy," said the law

Footsteps had been coming nearer
every moment, and Involuntarily Neal's
face turned to the door. The cieta

fashioned cburfesy. hastened forward
to Intercept the visitor. -

the poison which causes consumption is
killed and the healing; oils of the in
halation are enabled to heal up the
sore places. The old way by injection
was successfully used by himself and
hundreds of physician who attended
his college in Berlin and became edu
cated n Its use, but it 'has now s;en
erally given place to the more success
ful treatment the Koch inhalation.
