In our previous articles we have in a great measure addressed ourselves to those of mature years. In this oerhaDS we have erred, we will there- fore now call attention to a practice ! that seems to he growing among the boys and young men of our commu nity. It is the habit of cursing and swearing. It may be that our atten tion has been called to this practice more of late- than formerly, but it does really appear that boys are more given to the use of intemperate lan guage now, than was the custom a few years ago. To our mind there is nothing which is so utterly useless (to say the least of it,) as the continual use of profane language. It seems, however, that our youths have been impressed with the idea that they cannot be "manly" until they have accustomed their tongues to the for mation of 1 words that would cover their sisters face with shame, and cast -a. shadow of pain across their mother's brow. If they could be permitted a view themselves, as they appear to others, they would doubtless re nounce forever this most debasing habit. t We wish to make a request of every young man that may see these lines, and it is this : Stop before using any bad word and ask- yourself, Is it ne cessary for me to emphasize this ex pression with an oath? We fee confident that long ere the question is flashed through the brain the an swer will have been agreed upon, and one bad word will have been sup pressed. Try it. ' In a recent address before the American Bar Association Justice Brewer, of the United States Su preme Court, made this startling as sertion : In criminal cases there should be no appeal. I sa,y it with reluctance, but the truth is that you can trust a jury to do justice to the accused with more safety than you can an appel late court to secure protection to the public by a speedy punishment of a criminal. There is no question that a more speedy termination, of cases, especial ly criminal cses, is necessary to the welfare of society, but the abolition of the right of appeal in all criminal c ises is a startling proposition and the more startling because it is made by a Justice of the Supreme Court. What is needed in North Carolina at present is a radical reform in the jury system. The' right of appeal migjht be restricted and probably ought to be but we are hardly pre pared to say that it should be abol ished entirely. Statesville Land mark. . As the money ' for crops slowly finds its way into the pockets of the farmer,, we notice that he grows pro portionately more willing to allow other people to bear the burden of financial discussion. It is strange but true that people who have little or no money know best how that article should be handled.- KKNLT OTKS Mr H. F. Edgertoh and lady have returned and are boarding at Mr. Jes se Kirbv's. Messrs. Edgerton & Lynn have sold their- mill to Mr. George Lynn, 0 Sehr?, who is moving it to that place. Mr 'T R. Rose is acting as agent , here a I present, plad to see Bob The people are come, he is a 3- good boy. 'The type sticker for the Advance some times makes me say some very curious words. List week he made me say Buckeye for Buckhorn. There were copious showers in this neighborhood the first of last week and wet some fodder that had been . pulled but the people have saved a good lot this year I Mr. S. V. Joyner made a hasty business trip to Greenville last week. He has sold his store here to two young men, Mr. John Barnes and Mr. Pope. They will continue busi ness at the same place. Mr. R. H. Alford, our efficient ana accomodating R. K. agent lelt last . . . . Saturday for Parkton, he has no rel atives there yet he eoes there fre quently and I expect says things that he would not like for Dot to write. It suits me f jr our yenng men to go somewhere else to have their sugar talk to ladies. Mr. J. S. Richardson has sold his drug store to Mr. Walter Jerrell an other young man. Dot is opposed j t0 SQ many young men flocking into town unless there were more young ladies here. We all seek to get some notice from the few that are here which is subject to make them feel that they are more popular than they really are. Last Sunday I visited some youns ladies in town with anticipations of bringing forth smiles which never fail to have the same effect on a heart, that is reaching out lor something to ding to that the sun has on a lrozen snake. I was spending the time very pleasantly and on account of a simi arity in names in which Jacob of old made love to his future wife, an ac count of which we read in the 29th chapter of Genesis, when I received the following note : "Old man Dot : You had better go home at once, it you don't the white caps will see you after you do go. White Caps." Now it is wrong for fuzzy faced boys who cannot look at a pretty girl and speak to her at the same time to dic tate to whom Cousin Jack and myself shallsmake love, and if Cousin Jack will join me we will sling the fuzzy faced white caps into the middle of next July; L Dot. We are pleased to note the grad ual disappearance of the frown that has so long darkened the faces of our farmer friends. Good crops and fair prospects will make most men forget past troubles.

On Saturday night the Chattanooga Stove company shut down its plant, telling its employes that it would have no further work for them to do until the price of stores went up. This company employs a hundred men, and its action will be followed by stove manufacturers all over the south.
