There are wonderful medicinal properties in S. S. S. that follow the course of the blood streams just as naturally as the most nourishing focd elements- It Is reallv a remarkable remedy. It contains one ingredient, the active purpose Of which is to stimulate the tissues to the fcealthv seleion of its own essential nutri ment. " And tlie medicinal elements of this matchless blood purifier are just as essen- t,r" end sugars of our daily food. Not one drop of minerals or drugs ia used in Its preparation. Ask for S. s.

The mule industry and it is EQQS GARDNER i SPEAKER CLARK TAIiKS IN OPTISflSTIC VEIN In an interview In the Washington Post a few days ago Speaker Champ Clark said: While I am neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet I am of the opin ion that 1915 will be a great, mem orable year for America and Ameri cans. The old year closes with a rising tide in business and commerce and with hope in the hearts of our peo ple. The trans-Atlantic war gave us a grievous but not mortal wound. i The worst of our sufferings seems to be over. The principle industries which are not righting themselves rapidly are the cotton industry and the mule industry. These two indus tries are to a large extent interde- ! . . 11 a vast one is improving more rap idly than the cotton industry because of the purchase of a very large num ber of horses for war purposes across the sea. If that traffic con tinues many months there will not be a horse left for cavalry service in Missouri, Kentucky and Tennessee which three states are the home of the mule industry. Consequently, be substituted for horses j m those three states wherever it can , . , be done, which will increase the de- mand for mules. The biggest acreage of winter wheat ever planted is in the ground, and reports from the spring wheat belt are all to the effect that the farmers are preparing to plant the largest acreage of spring wheat in the history of the republic. These wheat producers whether of the win ter or spring variety know, as cer tainly as anything in the future can be known, that by reason of the trans-Atlantic war they will get good nrices for their wheat. Consequent ly they are greatly encouraged. The department of agriculture gives the prospect of the winter wheat crop at 88 per cent plus of a possible wheat crop, which is above the' average at this time of year. Of course, weath er conditions betwixt now and har vest time will influence the output one way or the other and increase or diminish the percentage. If the pres ent snow should remain with us till March, it would probably raise the percentage to 95 or possibly higher. Why talk so much about the farm ers? Simply because all prosperity is bottomeed ultimately on agricul ture and because I represent one of the richest agricultural districts oe twixt the two seas. The railroads should cheer up and join in the general chorus of hope and prosperity now beginning to ring throughout the land. However it i v.y affect others. Interstate com merce commission certainly am ai,j good turn for the railroads by rais- ; freight rates. So the railroads should enlist in the vast army of op timists and join in jubilations at the prospect of the good time coming. Quite recently the St. Louis Re public contained a statement that 50,000 sawmill men and tie chop pers were idle on the line of the Frisco railroad alone. A few davs ago I read in the Fulton, Mo., papers j that many Callaway farmers were i busy hauling ties into Fulton of which I was truly glad. Of course, one swallow does not make a sum mer, but it is only reasonable to as sume that if the Chicago and Alton Railroad Company has resumed the purchase of ties, all the railroads will go and do likewise, which will give employment to many thousand tie choppers, teamsters and railroad men; because if the railroads buy the ties they will put them into the roads. If the farmers and the rail roads are pushing things, all the croakers and pessimists in the land can not prevent abundant prosperity i from coming to bless the land The war is bound to increase the output of our factories in almost every line. I have stated once be fore in print that in my judgment the war will be a great and perma nent advantage to us: (1) It will increase our foreign trade a great desideratum; (2) it will compel us, especially if long continued, to man ufacture almost everything we use or consume which would be a great and enduring blessing.

Of course, 20.4, which is the fourth highest in the Canadians and the sympathizers tne state. New Hanover county has with the cause of the allies will ac- cuse the state department of sympa- thizing with the Germans should it hold that Horn cannot be extradited. Equally of course German sympa- thizers will denounce the adminis- tration should it hold that Horn shall be sent back to Canada to stand trial in the civil courts of Can- ada. Secretary Bryan is bound to be criticised and denounced, no mat- ter what be his decision. The case is a new one, so far as we know. The fact that Horn, even though he be an officer of the Ger- man army, was not attached to any organized body of troops operating against Canada; that he was not in uniform at the time, may have an important bearing upon the case. The state department may hold that he was a civilian spy, not entitled to the protection of the laws of a neu- tral country. It may hold that he simply was a franc-tireur, a civilian operating against the enemy, a class upon which the German army in Belgium and France have inflicted death in hundreds of instances. i The state department, however, i may hold that Horn, by making United States territorv a base of on- erations against Canada, has vio- ated the laws of neutrality, and is subject to punishment rt the hands of our courts. This is the view which the admin istration is most likely to take. It is one with which Germany hardlv fault. Horn Put in Jail. i Pending determination at Wash ington of his political status the state of Maine has made sure of the custody of Werner Horn, the bridge dynamiter, by causing him to be sentenced for 3 0 days in the county jail at Vanceboro. It is expected that before expiration of that period he win be surrendered to federal au- thorities for a hearing on the appli- i cation for extradition from Canada. This is a Good Boy to Know. We heard the story this week of a Virginia boy, living on a farm, hat was as striking and as impres sive as any we had run across in some time. This little fellow is eleven years old.' He lives two miles from a little village, in which is lo cated the public school. Morning and night, through snow, rain or shine, the little fellow has walked this distance, swinging his dinner pail and his school books. In four and a half years he has not missed a single day. Think of this, city children, you who complain when you have to walk as far as four blocks to school; who stay home every chance you get, clap your hands every time there's a holiday, and vvould.. play hookey every day if you dared. We have no idea what kind of a place our little man will fill in life. He may become president of the United States or only a plain citizen of Virginia, living on his farm.

POPULATION' OP STATE INCREASING RAPIDLY. A bulletin just issued by the state the highest, 28.3 per thousand, while Forsyth has the next of 21.5 and Pasquotank 20.7. while at first thought these death rates may appear rather high, closer examination of the returns indicate pat these rates are due largely to lw causes; hrst, the higher death rate among the negroes, and, second, to excellent registration in these ( counties. I Another significant fact revealed by tne figures compiled by the vital statistics department is that the 1 A 1 11 . wnite aeatn rate is 11.5 per 1,000 population while the colored death rate is 16-6 Per 1.000.
