vast spread of advertising mat

few years ago was the principal
factor in the building up of the
colossal trade the firm now en
joys, the "Old Durham Hull" still
lieing fresh in the minds of old
and young. The many hundreds
of brands by as many hundreds

No Cigarettes for Minors.
The low er House of the General
AHsembly has concurred w ith the
uct ion of the Senate in passing,
with an important amendment,
tls act concerning the sale and
use of tobacco. As passed, the
bill reads as follows:
Section 1 . No person shall sell,
give or deliver to any minor un
der 10 years of age, uny tobacco
in the form of cigarettes, or in
any other form. Any jierson vio
lating the provisions of this sec
tion fchull U fiued not more than
$50 for each offense.
S-c. 2. Xo person under 10
years of age shall haw, smoke,
or in any way use, in any public
street, place, or resort, any to
bacco iu any form whatsoever.
Any sueh jiersoii violating the
provisions of this section shall be
fined not more than $7 for each
offense. j
' The one speech opposing the
bill was made by Mr. Graves, of
Litchfield. He said he appeared
for the Itoyt. Before makingatiy
legislation of the kind, he said:
'Connecticut farmers, quit grow
ing tobacco and stop using it
yourselves." Mr. Graves went
uii to speak about the force of
example, when Mr. Burton, of
Salisbury, called him down. The
latter said what Mr. Graves was
advancing was not germane to
the subject underdisenssion. "He
admits he has no sons, and it is
n inighty lucky thing that it is
so." Boars of laughter greeted
Mr. Barton's remark.
When the bill as amended was
putiion its pussngis no more
than six thin vtsees were heard
in opHMition. UmitifFtl, (vim.,

Yes, this is one of the advan
tages of patronizing the "home
press." But many jieople fail to
look at it in this light. They ap
parently lose sight of the fact that
their home paper is .working in
season and oat of season for the
upbuilding of the community in
which it is published, and that id
various ways it isconstantly con
tributing to the prosperity of its
patrons iu the manner above
spoken of. The home pnper not
only does a great deal of gratu
itous work, but much that is lost
sight of altogether, or worse, is
unappreciated in many instances.

Durham's (N. C.) Most Distin-

! Mr. Julian 8. Curr, of Durham,
N. C, is one of the most generous
bestow ers of charity in the State
of North Carolina. No matter
what the section or what the ne-
Lwssity, he is a ready and a will
ing giver. He is never appealed
to in vain, and the liberality of
his gifts are often surprising. In
consequence he is becoming
know n nnd admired as no other
man in his State, and it is safe to
say no honor or office in the gift
of the eopIe of his State would
be refused him were he to signify
his desire. Westetn Tobacco

of these marvelous little books, and
Sods food for criticism, but before
indulging in it, will give out readers
some quotations theretrum, from the
higtieu medical authorities, wbich we
believe worthy of consideration.
Under the heal of "No Distinctive
Symptoms Apparent," we find :
First More adulu are carried ofi

Edwards.
Thompson is authority for siying
that more adults are carried ott in thi
country by kidney disease than any
other malady except comumptinn.
Ufcder Warner's "Safe Cure" art.cle
on Consumption, we find a paragraph
claiming to be a quotation from a
publication uuei by Jirompton llos
ptal for Consumptives, London,
England, wntch states that a'i per
cent, ol the patient oi that institution
have uukusptctei kidney disorder.
Dr. Herman Uiei mer, an eminent
German authority also says that Con
sumption is aiwas due to deficient
nutrition ot tbe lungs, because of bad

Medical science ran no longer dis

We cinuot, however, see the ne
ccsity of continually ll miling the
