Sheriff Crowell returned from Wil mington Monday where he had been to hear "Your Uncle" Sammy Jones. Sheriff Crowell says the evangelist is a big man and there is all difference in the world in hearing him SAY a thing, and reading it in cold type. Prol. E. B. Phillips, a former Wil son county boy, in a private letter to the editor is kind enough to say : "Send the Advance after this date to Hibnten. I have a splendid school nearly fifty pupils and expect to stay nere, but want to hear from progressive old Wilson every week." The officers of Wilson Council Royal Arcanum No. 676 on last Monday paid the death claim of the late Wiley W. Edwards, amounting to three thousand dollars. .

Brothers and family re turned from Elizabeth City Friday All our people will be sincerely glad to know that Mrs. Brothers has almost recovered from her long illness.

None re joice at her recovery more than does the Advance. On next Saturday, October 17th, Senator Marion Buder, President of the N. C. Farmers' Alliance, and Mr. I. T. V.

It always brings sunshine and pleasure to me and I read .eagerly every page, and sometimes re-read some of it." We have been reliably informed that the article from the Tarboro Southerner in regard to the Enfield sensation published in the Advance of Sept 17th is untrue in fact the Southern confesses it was misinform ed. We are told that Mr. W. L. Alley did not leave Enfield with Mrs. Carlisle. He left openly and alone to accept a position in Hot Springs, Ark. We copied the article from the Southerner as news and, of course, left the responsibility with that paper. The Wilson Graded School will bring to Wilson fifty families within the next twelve months. We can now count fifteen who will move here by the beginning of next year. It is said that people make' a town build it up and keep it a-going. And so they do. And Wilson wins the peo ple, because it is a live town and the best place to live in in eastern North Carolina. We believe Wilson will have, under the Superintendency of Prof Foust, a most excellent Graded School one able to command the patronage ol our people and be an ornament to the town, Twenty-seven convicts in charge of lour guards armed with repeating Winchester Rifles, passed through here Monday. They were going to the State farm near Weldon. Jn the party we noticed eight or ten young negro boys. They did not look a day over fourteen years old. But it is all the same.

We know tobacco of Pitt and Wil son to be the best in North Carolina crop this year for color. Prices were fully up and farmers well pleased. The big lactones of Smoot & Clark and Cooper and others just reaching completion, shows the town means business, and the 3500 population guage is to be doubled soon. Streets are extending.

SCROFULA It is that Impurity in the blood, which, ac cumulating in the glands of the neck, pro duces unsightly lumps or swellings; which causes painful running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which developes ulcers in the eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or deafness; which is the origin of pimples, can cerous growths, or the many other manifesta tions usually Ascribed to "humors;" which, fastening upon the lungs, causes consumption and death. Being the most ancient, it is the most general of aU diseases or affections, for very few persons are entirely free from it How Can It Be By taking Hood's Sarsaparflla, which, by the remarkable cures it has accomplished, often when other medicines have failed, has proven itself to be a potent and peculiar medicine for this disease. Some of these cures are really wonderful. If you suffer from scrofula, be sure to try Hood's SarsapariUa, Hy daughter Mary was afflicted with scrof olous sore neck from the time she was 22 months old till she became six years of age. Lumps formed in her neck, and one of them after growing to the size of a pigeon's egg, became a running sore for over three years. We gave her Hood's SarsapariUa, when the lump and all indications of scrofula entirely dis appeared, and now she seems to be a healthy child." J. 8. CUBg, Haurlght, K. J. N.B.
