Tbd Wonders ol Science.
A camera man. working: for
the educational department of a
coinoanv. met an old farmer
coming out of a house in the
town where he was working and
explained his presence in these
words:
I have just been taking- sonn
moving piciures of life out on
your farm.
Did you catch any of my
laborers in motion? asked th old
man curiously.
-Sure I did. '
The farmer shook his head re
flectively, then said: Science is a
wonderful thing."

Prssbyttriaa Action Ys. Loyalty to Romo.
"Philadelphia, Septfrnbr
14 The board of education
of the Presbyterian church
has taken action asking min
isterial candidates to waive
exemption for military ers
vice, believing it la neither
wif nor patriotic to i akn
advautage of the exemption
provisions. '
'Although the army bill
exempts from the draft tLeo
hgicalor diyinity students
who have actually entered
upon their course, the board
recommends tftat unless they
are compelled to seek exemp
tions under some other pro
Visions of the act,1 they
waive exemption relating to
their caUlng as fiUure minis
ters of the Gospel?
"This Btaudf the board
adds, 'represents the soirit of
loyalty on the part of the
Presbyterian church.' " -At
lanta Constitution, Sept. 15
197.
In the United States the
Catholics secured exmpt;on
from military snrvice . for
their Dfiests and. students
and loudly boas of their loy

Attorney-General S P Free
ling of Oklahoma decides that by
tate constitutional provision
aid bone dry law" of Oklaho
ma the use of wine for sacramen
tal purpose is prohibited in that
state. Bishop veerscbaert,
Catholic, denounces the decision
as "intolerable; and outrageous,"
and declares his intentions to
use the vcine. Of course every
Citholic priest in Oklahoma will
follow the priest-bishop in defy
ing the law.
Many Protestant ministers use
un fermented wine or other sub
stitutes for sacramental purposes
and consider that they have no
need for alcoholic wines, either
by the bottle or the case, or bar
rel as do their papal brethren.

of Chamberlain's Tablets have

found them a pleasant laxative."
These tablets tone up the stom

troubled with indigestion give
them a trial, get well and stay
well.
Tbe Usual Injustice to tfci Fear.
At a meeting of the board of
alderman last week it was de
cided to give three per cent off
the taxes of the rich wlio havethe
money and will pay their taxes
this month. The poor who
can't come across will have to
pay the full amouut or have their I
property sold with an assess-
ment added. Probably this is
the reason. Justice is usually

After many years' experience I
in the use of it and other cough
medicines, there are many who
prefer Chamberlain's to any oth

Cough Remedy has been used in
mv mother's home and mine for
years, ana we always round it a
quick cure for colds and bronch

be
the most reliable cough medicine

According to the Independent
Gazette of German town, Pa.,
thjgre seems to be a rank and un
justifiable discrimination on .the
psyrt of certain officials against
the Sunday schools of German
toyrn. It has been the custom
tq'allow the use of the city play
grounds for civil and other pur
poses without complaint or hind
race. Fourth of July celebra
tions were held in them, also
various
athletic societies
con-
dtizi their sports there.
At one
tofVj them
the Hibernians were
alEbwed to hold a carnival for
twb" weeks, but when the Sunday
schools Of the city asked use of a
playground in which to hold a
hijjorical pag-eant showing the
reijgious life of the community
in its early days they were re-1
fud. The Hibernians were an I
lmh Catholic organization and
could get a playground for two!
weeks.
vThe Sunday schools are
po&ed of protestants and couldn't
gemeuse ot a playground for
an fnstoncal.pageant for one day.

Homo Grown Seed Are Bssi.
West Raleigh, N. O , Sept. 29.
irride is often expressea in
home-grown and home- made
products, but when tt comes to
seed we are too ready to discard
the home-grown product for
that from other sections of the
State or even from other States.
By this means, seed are often
secured which are not adapted
to the local soil or climate. Many
times a high price is paid for
seed that are not so good as the
home-grown seed. .By carer ally
I made tests, it has been found
that home-grown-seed of corn.
cotton, wheat, oats and clover
(are better than seed brought in
from other localities.
A few people still believe that
crops 'run out" when planted
in the same locality for seveial
years. This is far from true.
Crovs Income better adapted
to the locality in which they are
Isrrowa. The condition known as
com-r'running out" is usually duo to
a failure to save good seed each
year.

The post office department has
been making considerable chang
es (during the ' last few years,
some of which seem to have
considerable merit and some look
otherwise, however, it is gener
ally easier to criticise than to un
derstand. The latest move is to
make the leading office in a given
section, a kind of supply house,
or distributing point. This has
been done in the case of Salis
bury, and it is now necessary for
al I other offices in this county to
get their supplies from the Salis
bury office and also to make re
re Dorts to it. This will make it
necessary for this office to carry
a larger supply and make it un
necessary for theother offices to
carry as large stocks as they
have heretofore. This seems
to be a consolidation and simoh-
ncation ot business and moat
likejy will be of much help and
convenience to the oublic.
