What's The Matter t With Your Baby? Ths younff mother and many an old one, too is often puzzled to .now the cause of her child's 111 nature. The loudness of Its cryins does not neces sarily indicate the seriousness of its trouble. It may have nothing more the matter with it than a headache or a feel ing of general dullness. It cannot, of course, describe its feelings, but as a preliminary measure you are safe In trying a mild laxative. Nine times out of ten, you will And It la all the child needs, for its restlessness and peevishness are perhaps due to ob struction of the bowels, and once that has been remedied the headache, the sluggishness and the many other evi dences of constipation and Indigestion Will quickly disappear. Don't give the little one salts, cathar tic pills or nasty waters, for these will act as purgatives, and they are too strong tor a child.

WILSON IS NOWEO FOB THE PRESH National Democratic Conven tion, at High School, Hands It to Jersey Governor. Woodrow Wilson was placed In nomination for the presidency of th tatted States last night on the sec nil ballot of the mock democrati national convention, which was held In the auditorium of the High solum btiilillnff. It was a ureat event and the place was crowded by political en thuskists of the risins generation, both male and female. The latter arc starting early and even last night tried to get a suffragette plank inserted in the platform. They failed miserably but state that they are not dis couraged. Charles ltlddiok was acting as tem porary chairman of the convention when it was called to order, and when the voting came for a permanent chairman, Thomas A. Jones had no opposition and his election was madt unanimous. The new chairman made a very tilting speech accepting the high office to which he was .chosen and then called for presidential nom inations in the most approved style. Nominating speeches were then in order and some very line ones wore made as the names of the various candidates were presented. Silver tongued orators were present ii hordos and lliey advanced the claim1 rVf their favorites with tesl. Tie s( i . i 1ms- were really c.nod and wen hy no means without humor. When the nomination had all been made A. Samuels was elected perma nent secretary and the balloting he gun. The llrst ballot resulted as fol lows: Wilson. 498; Clark, 212: Bry an, 1"8; Underwood, 88. This n o sitated a second ballot as there had tieen no nomination, and in the sec ond Dr. Wilson came out with ban new Hying, a largo part of his added support coming from Mr. Bryan. Tip nnininating ballot was as follows Wilson. 70fi; Underwood, 124; Clark. 110; Hryan, 111. The event was the first of its kind to be pulled off In Asheville by the younger politicians and it was greatly 'ii.inyod by those present. CASTOR I A For Infants and Children.

Chosen President, S. 0. Bradley Vice Pres. and M. F. Hoffman Treasurer. Samuel P. lhirton was chosen at the all members meeting of the Asheville Merchants association as the next president of the association, to ser e during the coming year. ' As his as snclato i.rHi eis S. o. Brndiey was i-ii . tid si vice-president, M. f. Hott nian treasurer and J. K. Rector secre tarj mil attorney. Reports from the retiring Officers were heard, a number Of routine matters were taken up and t pa decided to hold the annual ban -jui I in the evening of June 7 In the roof garden of the Umgren hotel. The reports of the oltieers who have .served 'in association during the past year were full and were verv interest ing. Showing a remarkable growth In the association, both in point of mem bership and the work undertaken in expanding the usefulness of the organ ization. The reports of the president mil Secrttary Were of especial interest to the members present. Retiring President Archibald Nich ols, sialeil mat lie- association is r. ally doing a eoiniiienduble work and none of its acts deserve criticism from' those on the outside the point neing emphasized that the association has never so much as mentioned th loesuon oi selling prices, has ni oiacKiisi ami noes all In its power to protei t its membership through a well regulated collection department. He made a strong plea fur oxpun sum. especially along industrial lines of development, and thought that thi spirit ol boosting the city and section should be liurtiired. Be urired that uie memoers comply won 1 he adver tising rules of the association and take no space in anything, not recom mended specifically bv the seerelarx 1 ne secretary a report showed that 13 new members have been enrolled luring the past year and that tin sociallon is In line condition. The tatement was made that one of the principal endeavors of the association luring the year has ben to promot uiuveinvntl lor ine net tcrinir nr com mercial conditions In the city. Several forward movements were recited and the members asked to continue along these lines. Tile President's Report. Pr -id. nt Nichols' report was as fol lows: Gentlemen: I can on'y make a par tiai report, as you are all aware that I am only tilling out the iinexplre term ni President ti. F. Strndlev, who resigned some four months ago. I base not even revised the directorate. xcept in the few instances made nec-s.-iry by the change, and the time was so short that no new business has been undertaken. I shall make no detail report of the work accomplished. This will be done by the directors who are the chairmen t the various committees. i'e important matter under way wnen r came in was the adoption of the graduated scale of dues, milking it easier for the smaller merchant to belong and cause the burden of ex pense mostly to fall on those best ubl to bear it, and who would or could n-,ii me laiKesi ocociits rrom me as sociation. The change, 1 believe, was wise one. We have a ided many new names to our memliershlo. u-lvlne he association more strength for good in the community. I contend a iner- banis association is u blessing to anv ommunity in which they exist. I certainly wish the public could be tier acquainted with the workings f this organization. 1 can't believe a fair-minded man on the eutslOe could possibly raise an objection to any thing done by this organization. Some ine remarked In a joke the other dav that the .Merchants association was tiling but a trust for setting prices, Now you gentlemen all know there was never ;i greater mis oiicen- liou of the facts. Every man in this oom will biar me out that prices or price setting have never been dlseuss- d or mentioned in anv nicotine ever eld by this association since its or tnilallon In 19(10, and I have altend I about every regular meeting. I'm Iher, we have no "Dead Ileal List" as sonic pen-ale .suppose. It Is true thill have a collection department and I mil. ! in. mailed monthly to our members, which conveys the sad news f those "Itcuorted Slow" and lh- imca of those whose bills have been KNOWS NOW Doctor Was Fooled by His Own Caw fir a Time. It's easy to understand how ordi nary people get fooled by coffee when doctors themselves sometimes forgel mo facts. A physician speaks of his own ex perience- 1 hud used coffee for yenrs and really did not exactly believe It was Injuring me although I had palpita tion of the heart everv dnv. IT,. ontains caffeine the same drua found In coffee and is Just as harm ful as coffee.) "Finally one day a severe and al most fatal attack of heart trouble frightened ine and I gave un both tea and coffee, using Poitum Instead ind since that time I have hnd abso lutely no heart palpitation except on one or two occasions when I tried a small quantity of coffee which caused severe irritation and proved to me I must let It alone. When we began using Postum it seemed weak that was because we did not make It according to direc tions but now we put a little bit of butter in the pt when boillnir nnd allow the Postum to boll full 16 min utes which gives It the proper rich llavnurlng and the deep brown color. I have m'vlsed a great many of m. ImmiiI:i and I iti,.,i t leave off ifc mid drink Postum, In fact I dally give this advice." Name given by Postum Co.. Battle Creek. Mich. Many thousands of physicians use Postum In place of tea and coffee In their own homes nnd reeorlbe It to patients. "There's s reason," and It Is ex plained In the little book. "The Road Wellvllle," In pkgs. Ever read the above letter? A now one appear" from time) to time. They i??' "I1 h sent In for collection. No merchant la to blame for anv citizen having his name on these lists, for you can rest assured that every merchant Is going to collect his accounts himself If pos slble. and 1 believe I am safe in say Ing that there Is not a single mer chant that turns in his delinquent ac counts as soon as he should. 1 never knew of a merchant pressing a cus tomer who showed any disposition to pay. 1 am led to inquire. How could lie ' or w hat would be the use .' Credit .s loo cheap In Asheville. In fact credit is too chenp all over our south land. Very few appreciate the credit Ihey receive from their retail mer bant in the various lines. General! tin- trade appreciates opening up an account with them, but thev can't un- derstand why you want mur money promptly, when your terms are not ..implied with. They are nut aware thai von are paying per cent more mr inem lor the time the ac count has been running, not to say anything of when it Is past due for two nr three months. Kvery good citizen should he ac quainted with the fact that If slow payings accounts were paid promptly that prompt paying 'customers could net their goods cheaper. This is one of the few ways of keeping up appear nices and down expenses in this day of the cost of high llvlnc and blamed un the retail merchant. livery merchant should study close ly what it costs him to do business, ami what goes Into mnkllic up Ibis costs. There would be fewer failures if this ost problem Were known. 1 wish to say In closing that every member should be careful in taking oh citising In schemes not approved l.'iy the association. It means saving money to you to require tin- solicitor In all cases to have a letter of ap proval from the officers m advertising committee. Please do not say, "I did not know this was the rub- and that that was barred." Dozens of these schemes are turned down that you never heard of, more than enough to pay your dues. Let me urge you to be more careful In the future. Let me urge every retail merchant to boost our city at every opportunity i am sure you will De pardoned If vim make the opportunity, as soon those interested find whal a beautiful city we have In which to live. I wish to recommend that this as sociation Increase its efforts along the noes in inuusiriai uevelopment. I am convinced to build a big city and gain the name ol "no mean city" it will b along industrial lines and encourage visitors as another asset. I wish to thank the nllicers and di rectors and secretary for the assist ance given me In the performance of the duties of this office, but please don't ever do It again unlil my time comes in the regular rotation. I wish to commend to you, gentle men, my motto: "It Pas to Pay Cash." 1 thank you, gentlemen. FATHER SCOLDS HEH; SHE ATTEMPTS SUICIDE Beulah Redmon, 17 Years Old, Takes LaudaiMm but Is Found and Reitored. fiecauso her lather sometimes scolded heg- lor going out nt night Beulah Rfdmon y trday attempted to take her own life by swallowing a luantlty of laudanum. The attempt was unsuccessful as a physician was called soon after I he poison had been swallowed and the girl was given an emetic which quickly brought her to i onsi ioiisness and complete restora tion. The girl Is 17 years old and is a laughter of Samuel Redmon of North Asheville. The reason given above for the attempted rash act Is the one stated by her after she regained con- ioiisness and she also expressed re gret thai her attempt proved imsui essful. However she said she did not expect to try the same thing over gain, The girl is said to have been a close friend of Kuba Luther, who commit ted suicide sometime ago by taking carbolic arid, and It might be that this had something to do with the at tempt of Miss Itedmon yesterday. Hhe Is said to have stated that she would have used the add. too, but was una ble 'o procure any. DEAIM IN DIRT. I. P. Ciithberson, commissioner, to Jettle C.
