Who knows the harm that whiskey does? The suffering who can tell? We ask the man who strong drink loves, Who by the curse has fell. He cannot tell one half the pain Or suffering it has brought - To him in mind, in heart, in brain, Or on his body wrought. He cannot tell the pain and woe Of wife and children dear, Or all the suffering that they knew Ur what's their dreadful fear. How oft' his mother's heart has broke; ' His father bowd in shame, When he las put himself to soak . In whiskey's fiery flame, . A list of harm brought on by drink, Would fill a volume large, And many crimes, as black as ink, We mustlo whiskey charge. It takes, from christian homes, the boys And turns them into thieves : And all their hope of life destroys. And 'round them ruin weaves It takes the bright-eyed boys we love, And makes them drunken sots ; " It puts them where they're not above The murderers' midnight plot. When'in the prison they are cast, We ask the cause to know? And when the truth we find at last, "Twas drink, the deadly foe." It makes them in the ditches fall And in the mud to lay, It makes them taste thl bitter gall That in strong drink doth stay. It makes its way into the home And some times, shame to say, It makes the fairer ones to roam Where sin and shame doth stay. It lands its victims in the grave, In early manhood's hour, It makes them in their misery rave; - Strong drink has dreadful power, Sonetimes it rules where laws are made For this bright land of ours, And oft, a candidate has aid Brought in by whiskey's powers, Somtimes its use will make a man- Forget his blood bought right And cast his vote at drink's command, ' Let it be wrong or right. It causes men to quarrel and fight, . And blpck each other's eye,- With cruel blows, their friends they smite, To slay.them they will try. Then let us join the ranks with these Who stand against this foe, And with them every move oppose, Our courage let us show. With words of love, we'll beg and plead . - Witn those who make and sell This awful stuff, they know will lead . , So many down to hell. We'll plead, with . them, to cast their vote To save our girls and boys, And clench the demon by the throat Before it more destroys. We'll ask their help, to drive it out Of this bright land of ours , And when 'tis done, we'll raise a shout Stong drink has lost its pow'rs. Bunion, Faith, N, O., 3-2-'08. Judge Becomes Interested In Prisoner and Will Assist in Getting Pardon. Asheville, March 28. Publica tion of a notice is made here of application for a pardon for A. G. Strickland, who is under sentence to the chaingang for a term of eighteen months but by. reason qf a kindly feeling aroused in 'Judge Peebles for the convicted man. Strickland is at libarty and grant ed time in which to piepare and make application for a pardon. The interest that Judge Peebles has taken in Strickland came aboat in a queer manner. Strick land was convicted here of bigamy and sentenced to eighteen months on the roads. He appealed to the Supreme Court and pending the hearing of the appeal went ,on about his work, returning to South Carolina, his native t State. When informed that the Supreme Court had' decided against him Strickland came to Asheville and voluntarily presented himself to Judge Peebles for re-sentence. So unusual was the aotv that Judge Peebles made inquiry and declared that a mati as honest as Strickland ought not to have to serve time oh the roads. Execu tion of the sentence was continued for 60 days with the tacit under standing that' Strickland apply for a pardon, the court in ti ' mating that it would be glad to How to Raise Boys. "Thar aint much of a problem in raisin' boys if you'll have a lit tle common-sense about it," said Mr. .Billy Sanders. "Don't let 'em run wildlike pigs in the woods, an' don't keep the lines too tight, an' .when things go wrong don't be afear'd of usin, a raw-hide. But don't forgit that the mammies an daddies of the land are twice responsible when one of the'r boys goes wrong. Ef the legislatur' wants to do a good work, and make better citizens out'n. the risin' generation, let it put a heavy penalty on the dear parentB of the boys that go wrong." Joel Chandler Harris, in Unole rRemus' Magazine. : Pigeon Follows a Train. , A correspondent writing from Lenoir toxthe Greensboro "Indus trial News tells of the peculiar j performances of a white" pigeon.

Sometimes it flies along side the engineer's cab. within arms-length of the cab window. Other times it has been seen ahead of the tram, over the train and away benind, bringing up the rear owing to the speed the train was running. Several people have testified to having seen this pigeon follow ing the train for the past four five days. The railroad men re port that the pigeon follows . the train to .Granite Falls, Cliffs and even as far as Hickory .r tt al ways follows the first train from Hickoryi or wherever it stops to rest', back to Lenoir, Kodol is today the "beBt known and most reliable remedy for all disorders of the stomach, such as heart burn , .sour stomach and belohing of gas, Kodol contains the same juices-found in a healthy stomach.

Do Not Be "Decelied " - The pastors of the churches in Alamance county, thirty-two in number, have issued a pastoral address to the voters of Alamance county that has right ring. From it these extracts are taken. "This is the opportunity for which we have been long, praing, and one which, if neglected now, may never come again, jf we let our cause be lost now, we serve notice on our Legislature that our people are opposed- to Statejnrohi bitio ; to win by a small majority will mean the indefinite continu ance of the fight; to win over whelmingly will settle the question once for all. "Let us not be deceived by the soothing assurance that victory gill be easily won. On the con- taryr we need strenuous efforts of every temperance man and wo man, a thorough organization in every township, and every vote that cap.be cast. The liquor man ufacturers and dealers of the whole country are pouring money into otr State and flooding it with per nicious litterature filled with specious falsehoods. And some of our own newspapers and politi cians are using all their influence to prejudice' the people against prohibiton." imi TO ACT. Don't Walt for the Fatal Stages of Kidney Illness.

Helms, 412 W. Council St., Salisbury, N. C, says: "I give Doan's Kidney Pills the credit for curing me of kidney trquble and I heartily recommend them. For quite awhile I had pains in the small of my back and I was annoyed considerably by the irregular action of the! kid neyys.

About eighteen months ago I had grown so much worse that I could not eat a crust of corn bread and could not retain anything on my stomach, I lost 25 lbs; m fact I made up my mind that I could not live but a short time, when a friend of mine recommended Kodol. I consented to try to please him and I was better in one day. I now weigh more than I ever did in mv life and am in better health than for many years. Kodol did it. I keep a bottle con stantly, and write this hoping that humanity will be benefitted. Yours very truly, Jake Moore, At lanta, Aug. 10, 1904." Sold by James Plummer and all druggists.
