f
Resolutions Adopted By Lcntentcsa The
:Quarterly Meeting.
Whereas, the legislature ot North
Carolina has submitted the question of
the prohibition ot the liquor traffic to
the voters ot the State, to be voted on
on Mav 26. 1908, we, the members of
CotentneaQuarterly Meeting of Friends
Church, realize that a great responsi
bility rests upon us, as well as upon all
Christians, in connection with this
subject.
Iu order that our position may be
clearly understood, we make the fol
lowing declaration:
First. Because the legalized saloon
traffic is a source of much ot the crime
of the land, and the use strong drink is
destructive to morals and a hindrance
to religion, we record ourselves as un
compromisingly in favor ot theabso-
lute prohibition of the entire traffic in
intoxicating beverages.
Second. In view of the tact that the
Bible teaching is definite and emphatic
against the use of strong drink in such
injunctions as, "wine is a mocker,
strong drink is raging, and whosoever
is deceived thereby is not wise." And
again, "at the last it biteth like a ser
pent and stingth like an adder." And,
yet, again; "Woe unto him that givetn
his neiehbor drink." "No drunkard
can enter the kingdom of God."
These scriptures, and many others,
make it clear that strong drink is a
eup of death, and that God's judgments
are nronouneed against it. Therefore
we believe that the only consistent
course for Christians is to vote in favor
ot the prohibition of this traffic.
Third. In view of the fact that the
liquor traffic fills the prisons and asy
lums with victims, and the sober peo

HERE'S THE PROOF.
But Besides Catarrh, Hyomei Cures
Grip, Coughs and Colds, Croup
and Astbma.
Mb. Hobson's candidature for presi

on and laughed at. The office requires
the services of a man with some idea of
diplomacy. If all the good-looking
ladies had a vote, he might be able to

awake a great deal. I raised thick

However, I am entirely cured solely
through the use of Hyomei.".
Dr. Philip Z. Hart, Laconia, N. H.
Reader, this is one of thousands of
testimonials praising the marvelous
curative power of Hyomei. If you are
sufferer, why not try it? J. H. Hill fc
Son guarantee it, and will refund your
money if it iails to cure. Hyomei is not
a stomach nostrum; it is dry antiseptic
and medicated air, and all you have to
do to cure any disease of the nose,
throat or lnngs, is to breathe it in
through the Hyomei inhaler. A Hyo
mei outfit, including a scientific inhaler,
only costs $1.00. Get one to-day. Sub
sequent treatment is only 50c a bottle.
Get one now. J. H. Hill & Son take all
the risk. They guarantee it.

That Goldsboro should sustain the
best music house in North Carolina has
always been maintained by the Argus,
for not only does our city itselt abound
in superior musical talent, and in that
refined tate and literary culture that
go hand in hand with the former, but
also in thrifty homes, well-ordered and
beautiful, whose furnishings however
are not complete if a piano ororganjjbe
not installed therein.
Moreover, Goldsboro is an unexcell
ed railroad centre, the facilities ol
which, in this regard, afford more than
250,000 people, resident in the scope
subserved by these railroads, the op
portunity of leaving their homes in the
morning, spenamg ample nours io:
trading m Goldsboro, and being at
home for the night. So that as a trade
centre Goldsboro should, as it -does,
meet the demands of this mordern age
in every line of commerce, both at re
tail andw-holesale. This is why Golds
boro is so prosperous. It has the goods
and our merchant s treat every cus
tomer right who comes to trade with
them.
But it is not alone because Goldsboro
is possessed of such musical talent and
fine railroad facilities and trade ad
vantages that we look for the success
of Goldsboro's new music house, but
because in addition to these, the people
of this city and for miles and miles
around know Mr. John L. Faulkner,
so long identified with the tobacco
trade of this market; they know him
to be a man of integrity, whose
word when he makes a statement can
be absolutely relied upon. He has as
sociated with hi i u Mr. W. H. Dones, a
practical piano man of many years ex
perience. and together they have open
ed in the north corner store of the
Messenger Opera House as fine a line
of pianos and organs as have ever been
offered to the trade of this city and
territory, and th9y guarantee every
instrument they sell to be just as re
presented, and everybody who knows
John L. Faulkner knows that when he
sells them an instrument they are get
ting just what they buy.
The Argus commends the newf firm
to the trade throughout our wide cir
curlation and wishes them the full mea
sure of success their enterprise deserves.
