RELIGIUZTS MISCELLANY.
Can we enjoy Christ while liv
ing for ourselves, while indulging in sin,
while prayerless and cold and dead 1 Does
not God directly seek our highest happi
ness when He strips us of vainglory and
self-love, imbitters the poisonous draught
of mere human felicity, and makes us fall
down before Him lost in the sense of His
desirableness and beauty ? The connection
between glorifying and enjoying Him is, to
my mind, perfect one following as the
necessary sequence of the other; and facts
bear me out in this. He who has let self
go, and lives only to the honor of God. is
the free, the happy man. Mrs Elizabeth
Prentiss.
When ambition, reputation and
salary are in the pulpit, worldliness. pride
and ease are sure to be- in the pews. The
gospel of Christ is changed to the gospel of
self, and the masses are missed. Self never
reaches humanity to save. When the church
becomes churchly and thinks more of forms
than she does of humanity, the masses are
missed. When the Church becomes care
ful of reputation, too respectable and gen
teel for contact and association with the
crowds, she misses the masses. Always
discussing plans about how to reach the
masses, and never reaching them; compla
cent, sentimental: talkative about ideas.
plans, theories, and never putting them
into practice, is a delusive, pleasant, popu
lar way to miss the masses. St Louis Ad
vocate. It is bard to tell how much the
Sabbath has sweetened human life. Day
after day thunders on. Each one is laden
with care, and thought, and worry and
business. It comes beating in upon us like
a mighty wave. We may be able to stand
up against one of them, two of them or
three of them ; but by tbe time the sixth
wave has thundered in upon us, wounding
the heart and racking the brain, we begin
to stagger. BuW then the seventh comes
with waves of healing It is tbe day of
rest. And thus in our lives there are six
layers of care, and toil, and conflict, and
one layer of heaven. Six times the shuttle
leaps across the loom of our lives, carrying
a silver thread, and one time carrying a
golden thread. And so the weaving goes
on from year to year, until the loom stops
and God cuts off the thread which has
been going into it. Wilson Mirror.
Waste, folly, extravagance are
fearfully increasing among us, and beyond
doubt thousands of families -have as little
concern about the fragments as about their
enormous and luxurious feasts. We throw
away enough to feed the poor. Our ances
tors would have lived, even as late as fifty
years ago, on the fragments we throw away.
But we have fallen upon the time when
money threatens to become the standard of
everything except integrity and prudence.
God help us! It is terrible to see the rate
of living indulged in by vast numbers of
our people and the contempt put on the
home! v. virtues once in such nigh Honor.
If the struggle for wealth is not making
scores and hundreds inhuman, it is certainly
making them non-human by tne selfish
habits and reckless tastes it is generating.
And it is awful. to recall the fact that Dives
was the man' to plead so piteously with
Father Abraham for a drop of water in the
Hell of Inhumanity! Btcimond Adcocale .

UCK STATE CONTEMPORARIES.
The benefits wrought by the graded school
are untold. The town, and the people of
this entire section, have been benefited as
they have been by no other institution or
enterprise ever established in Wilson . The
good that has been accomplished and that
is still to be accomplished we sincerely
trust can never be estimated in dollars. and
cents, or by any other method known to
mankind. Wilson Advance.
Our State history has been written with
the haste and flippancy the editor of a paper
dashes off his daily work, using materials
already at hand, and giving results equal in
value and not more so to the hasty effusions
of current journalism. This is why we
have no history that is reliable; and while
each contribution has some element of
value, none form a complete whole or fur
nish solid data for future laborers in tbe
field. The present contributions begin in
the right way ; they begin with the expendi
ture of time; and that means study and pa
tient research; and a foundation is thus
laid for a substantia, trustworthy, ample,
and elegant history of North Carolina. If
we were hard-hearted, we would condemn
our friend Sunders to the work which no
one would do so well. But he is a physical
sufferer; and our surprise is that amid so
much of pain and the pressure of other re
sponsible duties, he has been enabled to do
so much. Asheville Citizen.

Killed In Central Park.

Mrs. Alice Key Pendleton, wife of
George H. Pendleton, United States
Minister to Germany, was instantly
killed about 5 o'clock yesterday af
ternoon in Central Park, and her
daughter, Miss Jennie Frances
PendletOD, was severely, though not
fatally, injured..
Entering the Park by the Fifth
avenue entrance about 5 o'clock, they
proceeded up the East Drive to the
southern part of the Mall and then
turned up the Centre Drive, going
north. They were then within 300
feet of the Webster statue, when the
horse again became frightened at
some rumbling noise in tne distance
and started up the Centre Drive.
The driver, pulled suddenly forward
bv the start, tried to balance himself,
but failed and was pulled over the
dash-board, thrown to the -ground
and dragged along the driveway.
The horse dashed on until he was
within 150 feet of the statue. The
two ladies Kcreamed for help and
were beside themselves with fear.
All this timu the horse was dashing
on and no oue was visible to check
his course. Miss Pendleton stood up
on the seat oi the carriage and, after
calling to her mother to follow her,
jumped over the side and landed on
the lawn which borders the roadway.
There she lay unconscious.
Mrs. Pendleton, when she saw'her
daughter spring , out, followed her,
but struck the pavement witn tern
ble force.. She was hurled by the
speed of the carriage agaiust the

stantly killed. , i
THE SKIN.
Its Diseases and- Gure.
This class of troublesome complaints embraoea
a large list, some of which afflict nearly every
family in the land. Heretofore the treatment of
nearly all these disease! has been very unsatis
factory and unsuccessful, and the people have
been very much d ecelved by pretended remedies.
A majority'' are caused by an impure, vitiated
condition of the blood, and as most of the blood
remedies of the day reqnlre 50 to 1C0 bottles be
fore you discover that they will not effect a cure,
we offer B. B. B., which makes a positive care by
the use of -only a few bottles.
The most common of the skin diseases which
are cured by ths use of B. B. B., the only quick
Blood Purifier, are aslfollows:
Eczema, Old Ulcers,
Impetigo, . Abscesses,
Erysipelas, Dry Tetter,
Ringworm, Carbuncles,
Soaldhead, Itching Humors,
Pruritus, Blotches.
Old Sores, Herpes,
Pimples, Bolls,
Itch, Splotches.
Beautiful Complexion
Is sought by the use of cosmetics and all sorts o
external applioatlonp, some of them being poi
sonous. All females love to look pretty (which gentle
men do notlobject to), and a smooth, soft, clea
complexion adds greatly to female charms.
The use of B. B. B. will purify yonr blood, will
remove blotches, splotches and bumps that ap
pear upon the face and neck, and will tinge the
pale cheek with the roseate hues of nature.- One
or two bottles will convinoe any one of its value.
No family should fall to keep B. B. B. In the
house, as there Is no family medicine its equal.
Rheumatism.
One author says: "Rheumatism is due to the
presence In the blood of a vegetable organism of
definite characters-"
Another says: "It is due to the presence of a
poison In the blood which is of the nature of a
miasm.'
ZThe disease having its origin In the blood, It is
reasonable to suppose that it must be oured by
remedies directed to the blood.
SA successful remedy must produce certain
changes in the composition of the blood, and
when this has been accomplished, all pain,
swelling and stiffness of the joints subside.
This accounts for the reason why external ap
plications fail to produce permanent relief.
But we now have the remedy which acts like
magic in giving relief to all forms of rheumatism,
rheumatic goat, rheumatism of the joints, mus
cles and heart. It also cures eyphlliths and mer
curial pains and rheumatism in an incredibly
short time. The faot cannot be denied that B.
B. B. (Botanic Blood Balm) has proven Itself to
be the most speedy and wonderful remedy for
all forms of rheumatism aver before known
Those who were prostrated In bed and could not
get about, have been cured. Hen with crutches,
and hobbling along with stiffened and painful
joints, withered flesh, loss of sleep and appetite,
are cured by the use of B. B. B. Cast aside all
other remedies, use B. B. B., and you will soon
have no use for crutches.
Many who read this will refuse to be cured by
the use of B. B. B., but we advise all such to
drop us a postal card for our Book of Wonders,
free, which Is filled with startling proof of cares
made here at home. It also contains full infor
mation about blood and skin diseases, which
everybody should read.

cine Man
Atlanta Constitution:
Atlanta, alt hough in many respects regarded as
a healthy city, is not unlike all other inhabitable
portions of the carth.in claiming her share of vic
tims of the monarch of all dreaded ailments
blood poison. A Constitution man was delegated
to Investigate some of the most notable cases, in
Atlanta, and In his rounds made the following
appalling discoveries :
Miss Chapman Interviewed.
"My name is Mary Chapman, and I live at the
corner of Williams and Cox streets. I have been
a dreadful sufferer from scrofula and running,
eating scrofulous ulcers for six years. Have
been waited upon daring the time by seven At
lanta physicians, also used various advertised
remedies, without the least benefit. The eating
sores on my neck were a mas of corruption
almost down to the bones. My throat became
so much affected that I could scarcely swallow
my food lodging in a portion of my throat I
was reduced to 90 pounds weight being a mere
skeleton. In this condition I commenced the
use of B. B. B., and found great relief in the first
bottle.
"When I had used fine bottles my health had
so much improved that the ulcers had all healed,
the swelling subsided, my appetite returned, my
skin became active, my strength returned and I
gained 44 pounds of flesh, I am now healthy,
fat and hearty, and am able to do as much work
as any woman, and feel as happy as a lark."
Miss Wallace Questioned.
Miss Minnie Wallace resides with Mrs. George
Fickland, 41 McAffee street, and from her own
lips the reporter learned the following story:
Several months ago she became almost totally
blind and deaf. Her bones became the seat of
intense pain, her Joints were swollen and painful,
and eventually her whole body and limbs be
came covered with splotches and small sores.
Her appetite failed, and she gradually lost flesh
and strength, and had bat little use of herself,
as her limbs and muscles wero paralyzed.
To the reporter she said: "I had blood poison
a id rheumatism and .before one bottle of B. B. B.
had been taken I began to see and hearv When
I had completed the use of six. bottles my eye
sight and heating were fully restored, sense of
taste returned, all splotches disappeared, sore
ness art tnaled, and my strength and flesh re
stored."

MOTHERS
maKES CHILD-BIRTH
EASY.
ii
The time- has come at last
when the terrible agony inci
dent to this very critical period
in a woman's life oan be avoi
ded. A distinguished physi
cian, who passed the greater
v portion of his life (forty-four
years) In this branch of prac
tice, left to child-bearing wo
man this priceless legacy and
life-saving appliance, "THE
MOTHERS' FRIEND," and to
day there are thousands of the
best women In onr land who,
having used this wonderful re
medy before confinement, rise
np and call his name blessed.
We reoelve letters from eve
ry section of the country
thanking us for placing this
preparation in the reach of
suffering woman. One lady
from North Carolina writes us
that she would like to thank
the proprietors on her knees
for brls gins it to her notice,
as in her previous confine
ment she had two dootors,and
they were compelled to use
chloroform, instruments, etc.,
and she suffered almost death;
but this ttme she need "MO
THER'S FRIEND," and her la
bor was short, quick, and al
most like magic. Now, why
should a woman suffer when
she can void it? We can
prove all we claim by living
witnesses, and any one interest
ed can call, or have their hus
bands do so, at our offioe, and
see the original letters, which
we cannot publish.
SThls remedy is one about which we cannot
publish certificates, but it is a most wonderful
liniment to be used after the first two or three
months.
Sold by all druggists. Send for our treatise on
the Health and Happiness of Woman, mailed
free, which gives all particulars.
