Newsman's Peculiar System of "Ban

lshed tying up his unsold papers, uud
save for (lie lingering clangor of a de

The commuter was wondcrlnK exact
ly how long he would havu to wait
before he caught hIrIU of the red and
green lights of a llronx express, when
he was startled by a loud pounding
noise In the direction of lite news

lint leaning over the sloping top and j
banging the boards with might and '

in one section lie went to tho next j

commuter approached and ventured a i
question. i
"What'B the mat tor, my friend," he
said, "was business ho poor today?"
"llusiness poor? Not on your life.

the newsman.
"Struck me you might be relieving

COURTESY ALWAYS AN ASSET
Something That 8hould Not Bo For
gotten Even In the Rapidity of
Modern Life.
One of the minor virtues Is to Bay
"thank you" audibly.
A mil ii HurrtmritTB his seat to a
woman in a crowded car, and of
course it is no more than his chival
ric duly to do so. Nevertheless, he
feels mildly resentful when his sacrf
lice Is accepted in utter silence, and
the beneficiary flounces into the va
cant )lace without so much as a
glance at the benefactor.
Similarly, when one has given a bar
ber a gratuity amounting to the cost
of the tonsorial operation, it is irri
tating to have the honorarium pock
eted as a matter of right, and not as
a gracious concession.
Walters and porters who are anx
ious to Insure the life of the onerous
practice of tipping would do well to
observe that much of the well-defined
popular resentment of the custom is
due to the unappreciative attitude of
! the recipient. It Is only human na
ture to expect at least a civil acknowl
edgment when we think we have con
ferred a favor, and many a man who
gives a tip regrets it when his gen
erosity is accepted without a word.
The practical value of courtesy as
an actual business asset is coming to
be so generally recognized that the
modern employer considers politeness,
together with honesty and Bobrlety, as
among the Indispensable qualifications
for one who seeks to enter his service.

WHEN SUMMER DIED.
The duy iliai summer died we saw a change
Creep slowly o'er the sunshine of her face
A Heeling beauty, dim and wholly strange,
Unlike the brightness of her earlier grace;
Vt'e fell a chill in every breeze ihai blew,
And saw across the meadows green and wide
A veil of frosi iliai silvered all ihe dew
The day that summer died.
The day thai summer died a red leaf fell
From out the maple's green and stately crest,
And all the slender fern leaves in ihe dell
In robes of while and palest gold were dressed;
A laie rose shed its petals one by one,
The poplar stirred iis trembling leaves and sighed:
A glowing dahlia blossomed in the sun
The day that summer died.
The day that summer died the forest stream
Crept forth to watch theblueness of the skies;
The hills grew dim and hay as a dream,
Or like a vision viewed by tearful eyes.
A growing shadow, chill and vaguely drear,
Swept o'er the landscape like a rising tide;
And winter's footsteps sounded all too near
The day that summer died.
MEMORIES ALWAYS WITH US
IN A DRY INDIANA CITY-
THE DREAM AND THE SONG,
So olt our hearts, beloved lute,
In blossomy haunts of song are mute,
So long we pore, 'mid murmurings dull,
O'er loveliness unutterable,
So vain is all our passion strong!
The dream is lovelier than the song.
The rose thought, touched by words, doth turn
Wan ashes. Still from memory's urn,
The lingering blossoms tenderly
Refute our wilding minstrelsy,
Alas ! we work but beauty's wrong!
The dream is lovelier than the song.
Yearned Shelley o'er the golden flame ?
Left Keats, for beauty's lure, a name
But "writ in water ?" Woe is me !
To grieve o'er flowerful faery,
My Phasian doves are flown so long
The dream is lovelier than the song !
Ah, though we build a bower of dawn,
The golden-winged bird is gone,
And mom may gild, though shimmering leaves,
Only the swallow-wittering eaves,
What art may house or gold prolong
A dream far lovelier than a song?
The lilting witchery, the unrest
Of winger dreams, is in our breast,
But ever dear Fulfilment's eyes
Gaze otherward. The song-sought prize,
My lute, must to the gods belong,
The dream is lovelier than the song.
Pleasant or Otherwise, There Is No
Poselbl Way of Banishing Them
From One's Life.
"A single strain of memory's softly
singing music one sympathetic chord
that touches us, and the floodgates of
the past turn wide and looso tho tor
rent that would o'erwhelm us."
Hhadows of memory--fllttlng acrosa
the heart like birds In flight passing
catching the flicker of wandering
moonbeams, fading again into gray
ncaa of shadow.
Do you believe In fairies?
I)o you believe in Goblins?
Do you believe the fireflies light
the street lamps in tho evening?
Memories are but fairies older
grown that play within the garden
of the heart when twilight shadows
gather round about, and darkness
settles over all.
MemorleB that bless and bring a
smile to lips long since grown grave.
MemorleB that bless and bring a
tear to eyes unused to flow.
Memories that burn and sear the
heart, and open wide the wounds of
yester-year.
There are no ghosts save thoBe that
walk in the graveyard of memory.
The bitterest drop within the cup
at close of day ie to know that that
which we have left undone has caused
another pain.
Close the heart to the voico of mem
ory as wo may it ever stalks behind
us as a record that will bless or burn.
Today we make the memories of to
morrow, if we but solve life's prob
lem to the best of our ability clear
of mind, clean of heart, forgetting not
the little things that make the road
way rough to those that walk beelde
us on the path the memories will
bless, not burn each little love will
light its lamp to cheer and guide us

Governor Craig has issued a
proclamation for community ser
vice, the substance of which is as
follows:
Therefore, I, Locke Craig, Gov
ernor of North Carolina, in re
sponse to widespread sentiment
among our people as expressed by
many organizations and societies,
do hereby set apart the 3rd, 4th
and 5th days of December, 1914
to be known and observed through
out ihe State ol North Carolina as
"Community Service Days," and
I appoint them as days wherein
every man, woman, ana cnuu in
the Commonwealth shall lend
heart, hand and brain to the ser
vice and development of North
Carolina and of its every commu
nity and county, and as days where
in the people shall meet, confer,
and work together for the advance
ment alone the three-fold lines of
investigation, united labor for the
immediate improvement of the
community and wise planning for
its future.
1 call on the leaders of thought
and progress in every community
to assist in organizing and planning
for these "Community Service
Days."
I call on the Farmers' Union
the Chambers of Commerce, the
women's clubs, our teachers and
ministers, the press of ihe State,
our lawyers, physicians, farmers,
business men, industrial forces,
and all others to co-operate
working out plans for such Com
munity Service, and on these days
to put aside matters of private con
cern to themselves to the grea
movements for the common good
I. I urge that in each communt
ty, social and economic surveys
shall be made the first days of the
week or earlier, so as to inform
the public as to the conditions now
existing and the lines of progress
most needed.
The 3rd he names as Publ
Roads, Grounds and Buildings
Days.
The 4th is set aside as "School
and Neighborhood Improvement
Day."
The 5th he sets aside as "Coun

He also designates the week as
'Home Coming Week" when all
former residents of each North

Interesting to Note the Evolution of
Footwear Through Its Cen
turies of Use.
In tho ninth and tenth centuries the
greatest princes of Kurupe wore wood
en shoes. In the reign of William
Hufus of England In tho eleventh cen
tury a great dude, "Robert the
Horned," used shoes with sharp points
stuffed with tow and pointed like
ram's hornB. The Homans made use
of two kinds of shoes, the solea or
sandal, which covered the sole of the
foot and which was worn at home or
In company, and the calceufl, which
coverud the whole foot and was al
ways worn with the toga when one
went abroad.
Greek shoea were peculiar in reach
ing to the middle of (lie leg. Slippers
were in use before Shakespeare's time
and were originally mnde rights and
lefts. Shoes among the .Icwb were
made of leather, linen, rush or wool;
soldiers' shoes were usually made of
brass or iron In Ihe reign of Richard
II. shoes were of such absurd length
as to be required to be tied to the
knee with chains s nietlmes madu of
gold or silver.
In 14:i (he Kngllsh parliament took
the matter in hand and passed an act
forbidding shoes with spikes more
than two Inches in length being worn
or manufactured. The present fashion
in shoes was Introduced Into England
In 1633.

The Tangerine.
When the tangerine orange was
tlrst introduced Into China, It was bo
highly esteemed that It was given as
a gift to the mandarins, and hence
became known as the mandarin or
ange. Our tangerine Is Blmply a
descendant of the ancient mandarin
orange.
In the lust few years there seems
to have been a falling off In the popu
larity of these dainty, little glove or
anges, as they used to be called. Pos
sibly It Is because the modem navel
orange, with its sweetness and de
lightful flavor, la so plentiful.
Even so, the appetizing little tanger

it has at present. It would seem that
the very fact that the tangerine Bkln
peels off so readily would insure Its
popularity. Hut there are fashions

Indianapolis News.
Claude lidwards, a Muncie drug
gist, says that a few years ago he
was visiting relatives in a small
Indiana city when he was ap
proached by a stranger who said ;
"Vi'liai's the mailer with this town,
anyway ?"
"I don't know, I'm sure," re
plied lidwards. "I don't live hete,
I'm pleased lo say."
'1 hen, according io lidwards,
ihe siranger unburdened this tale
of woe :
"I knew this was a 'dry' town,
ami so I went in to a drug store
and asked that man if I might be
accommodated with a little poison.
"Have you got a snake bite?"
the counter-jumper asked me. 1
told him no. Have you got a '
prescription?" he asked again. I
didn't have any prescription.
" 'Well, you'd belief go oui and
get a prescription,' he said. He
gave me a list of the town's doc
tors, with their addresses. The
first place I went io there were
about twenty people ahead of me
wailing to see the doeior. At the
end of an hour and a hall 1 man
aged to see him. He said that he
could not write me a prescription
for what I wauled, but gave me a
bromide, which I didn't need,
The next doctor was oui, so that
saved lime. The third doctor, af
ter making me wait a half hour,
told me he could do nothing for
me.
"After that I went back io the '
drug store and told the clerk my
troubles. 1
" 'Well, there's jusi one chance
left for you,' the druggist said. '
'Down ai Frank Miller's livery j
stable they have a trained snake.
If ii bites you I might be allowed 1
to save vour life.' So 1 trailed
down to Frank Miller's livery barn.
When I got there I saw about fifty
men all lined up like they were
buying tickets at a theatre. I had
to take my place at ihe end of the
line again. Finally, after I had
stood in line about an hour, 1
reached ihe snake, but he wouldn't ;
bile me. I asked ihe man holding
hint what was the matter, and he
said, 'He's only got a contract to
bile 200 a day, and you are No.
201.'
"Well, having done my duty, I
went back to the drug siore and
asked the man, afier telling him all
the things that 1 had experienced,
'Is there any chance?'
" 'P-s-s-s-s-t! he whiskered.
'Follow me.' So I went in the
cellar, darker than a suck of black
cats, stumbled over boxes in mak
ing my way through an under
ground passage, and finally
emerged in an opening. Once
inside, the druggist went to all the
doors lobe sure that they were
locked, examined the windows to
see that they were shut, and afier
they were shut, and afier pulling
down ihe blinds, got me by the ear
and whispered, 'No !' "

IS T11E REMEDY YOU PiEED
It is not only an invigorating tonic
for a torpid liver, but it extends its
cleansing and restorative influence
to the stomach and bowels. Helps
digestion and food assimilation,
purifies the bowels and brings back
the habit of regular daily bowel
movements. When the stomach,
liver and bowels are active, bilious
impurities no longer obstruct func
tional processes, the result of which
is renewed energy, mental activity
and cheerful spirits.
