IredeJl county seems to be a
f ovoritehaunt for ancient tarr.
pins.
It has been decided upon good
authority that there is no law un
der which the leper, John Early,
can be sent back to North Caroli
na, so -suppose we stop worrying
over it.
The kerosene cure for snake
biteseven in a prohibition State,
will hardly become popular.
A man who has plenty of cash
with which to purchase good food
and yet allows himself to become
nearly starved for want of it, cer
tainly needs a guardian much
more than he does money.
The gentleman who is bettiDg
five to one on Taft's election,
seems desirous in convincing the
publio of the truth of the old
adage about a fool and his money.
It would be interesting to know
if this night rider business is the
real stuff, or whether it is just the
work of some citizens who aspire
to be humorous.
The Greensboro Record thinks
if President Roosevelt can be in
dnced to write a few more letters
to Mr. Bryan, it will insure the
election of the latter an opinion
toith which the majority of intel
ligent voters will concur.
Gov. Haskell? callff President
Roosevelt a "foar-flaster," If
the governor of Oklahoma con
tinues to use such terms as this,
people - will begin to imagine
hings about him. -
It is rather, late in the season
or snake storiesr but that one in
another column, from, an Asbe
ville paper, will do to tell-any old
time.
Roosevelt will not reply to Bry
an's last letter. Does he begin to
realize that he has alteady replied
too often?
The impressible Tom Watson
makes a clean breast of it and ad
mits that he is only bluffing.
The weather prophets often say
there is a hard winter ahead of us,
but sometimes it does not get
around according to schedule.
Ink and Paint.
"There is a difference between
good advertising and showy adver
tising" says The British Adver
tiser. "The showy advertisement
will receive the commendation of
those who don:t think- much
about advertising, or who are not
going to buy the goods. This
commendation is a pleasant thing
to have, but it sometimes costs
more than it is worth." Outdoor
advertising is of the showy variety.
Ten square inches of newspaper
space filled with sensible selling
talk in behalf of a meritorious
commodity will exert a greater in
fluence on the minds of buyers
than ten thousand square feet of
red paint smeared over the land
scape always provided that the
newspaper is of the type that com
mauds the confidence of its read
ers. Philadelphia Record.
Another Snake Story.
A rural mail carrier is respon
Bible for the tale of a curious ex
perience with a pair of black
snakes by a man whose name ne
could not learn.
He says that the man was walk
ing through the Woods when he
came upon a monster black snake
about six feet in length, which at
tacked him and attempted to wind
its body around him . He secured
a large stick and killed the snake
but not before it had dealt him a
severe blow upon the face in its
efforts to squeeze him, the marks
of which were still visible. Im
mediately after killing the first
snake its mate came out from un
der some shrubbery and seeing its
dead companion made for the man
and severely but probably not se
riously, hurt his knee before he
could do away with it. Asheville
Citizen.
A Stiff Fight.
A i Villi
An interesting nent between a
"jar fly" and an English sparrow
took place on the street here the
other day, and the remarkable
part of it was that the jar fly
whipped out the sparrow and got
away from him. They fell from
a tree to the ground where the
fight, became faBt and furious.
As fast as the sparrow would
catch the jar fly in his bill the fly
would give one cf its vigorous
'inra ' ' aViolrirtrv t Via snormiD IriAaa
This was kept up for severat min
utes when the sparrow flew away
in disgust and the jar fly went
back in the tree to continue his
montonous ' 'jars. ' ' Wilkesbo- o,

What Mr. Foraker has lo say
about it from now on will only
serve to keep it stirred up, Ex,
Roosevelt will Shut up.
President Roosevelt will not, re-
i
ply to the latest letter of William
J. Bryan, given out by him last
night at Rock Island, 111. Secre
tary Loeb stated to-day that the.
President felt that inasmuch as
Mr. Bwjis letter: was simply an
attack upon nim personally, theTe
was no reason why he should an
swer it,
Secretary Loeb to-day also
made thestatemens that President
Roosevelt had no intention at pres
ent of making a tour in behalf of
the Republican candidate for Pres
ident. Many invitations had been
received by the President. JMr.
Loeb said, dut Mr. Roosevelt
never has stated that he ) would
take the stump, when asked
whether, if the situation took such
a turn that the President might
consider that making a speaking
tour would materially aid the
Republican cause, the President
in that event would take the stump
Mr. Loeb replied that he might or
might not do so, and added that
no one cculd tell what the future
would bring forth. Washington
despatch. - '
Advertisements, as Clocks, Should Keep
Running,
A store's advertistmeuts tell
the people what is "doing at
that store what is new, what is
inviting, why today is a good time
to visit the store. People look for
advertisements to tell them these
things just as uaturaliy as they
would look at a clock to tell the
time.
Sometimes a clock does not run
sometimes a store's advertise
ment does not. A "tun-down"
clock or advertisement are about
equally unsatisfactory, unservice
able, misleading.
Curious thing about it is that a
merchant who wouloVthink it ab
surd to have a "run-down" or out
of repair clock will, sometimes
deliberately let his advertisemei
stop running It s not wise, nor
"good business," nor dofensibl
on anv known grounds bnt i ts
sometimes done. ExchaDge.

Nature's Great Blood Tonic
The recent drug: exposures in this Country have proven to all that deadly poisons
and stimulants lurk in many Patent Medicines. You never know when you might be tak
ing some of that class.
Nature has made ample provision for restof ing1 vigor and vitality to humanity, and
the public, as well as doctors, resort to Natural Remedies, when all others have failed,
xai j Are 2u tr2TibledA with Dyspepsia, Nervousness, Malaria, Kidney or
gladder Trouble, Chronic Diarrhoea or Dysentery, and above all, that
dreadful disease Scrofula, which has almost baffled human skill, or Diseases pecu
liar to Females?
Piedmont-Bedford Concentrated
r .
Iron Alum Water
Is Nature's Remedy for Nature's Ills. Yes, when you consider that disease comes
from impoverished or run down conditions of the system, this Natural Mineral Water
furnishes the system what it needs. .
The analysis of this Water, shown on the bottle, tells you what Nature thinks
you should take when sick, and the doctor who reads it will agree.
Do you think the grouping together in this Water of 17 different minerals, which
are recognized by medical writers as most powerful blood tonics, could have been
accidental ? Reason answers, NO 1
An 18-oz bottle of Piedmont-Bedford Concentrated 'Iron and Alum water contains
all the minerals of 25 gallons of the average natural water Then why buy a barrel
of water when you can get a bottle of minerals at the trivial cost of
one dollar. The dose is a teaspoonful in a glass 6f your own spring water.
How this Water acts upon the system is not clearly known. It is judged mainly
by its works. It has cured all the diseases numerated above, and many more, evidently
through its action as a powerful BLOOD TONIC. "
We have many valuable certificates, which we will -be glad to mail, if you are
interested. ' -
