It all happened in this wise: While a case was being tried one cltisen failed to get a seat near a cuspidor. But he did. not let that worry him. At least he didn't until Judge Long discovered that the citizen wasn't wforrylng. but was spitting on the floor very unconcernedly. Judge Long at once called him to the bar. The cit izen apologised slating that he was sorry. Indeed, and he really aeemed to be.

Another Is the sarrirtce ; of the Southern people for the advancement of liber ty and true democracy in the earth. "When the tocsin of war sounded. It was the Mood of the old Confederacy that laid the first red rubles upon freedom's altar.

POETRY AS CCR.E FOR THE FLAPPER (Raleigh Times.) Comes Miss Mary Parson of New Jersey with a recipe for reforming the flapper; cure 'em with poetry Is her advice. Whose poetry, may we askf la ths cure to be effected with Service. Amy Lowell. Edger Oueet. Walt Mason or fclla Wheeler Wilcox T And who is going to catch and hold the flapper while the poetry Is -being admln- letered? It might be poeelble to slip some over via ths Vlctrola between dances, but whst manufacturer of records Is willing te take a chance on gumming up eo much gutta percha for mlsslonsry work? Another obstacle to be overcome le the finding of folk who could apply this treat ment when the flapper has been sufficiently subdued to be quaai-non-reslstant. Anybody reeding poetry this year esve those who see It on the screen In sub-tit lea? We've Just thought of something: Byron's "Don J uan." illustrated as movie serial, might get over. Indeed, you're welcome to this suggestion.

How many round tripe from bottom to top do you euppoee the average elevator mekea-a dy? How many people used tt? The number le o larse ihat the elevator la today un questionably our greatest transportation sys tem. . Statistics show that there one hundred snd fifty-alx thousand elevators In the United Rtates. They haul more people than all the railroads, surface street cars, elevateds and subways combined. So say engineers who, after five years' study, have Just completed s snfety code to decrease elevator accidents. ( Tills new safety code, prepared by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Is a composite of national experience. Bal timore expects to be first to adopt it. Other cities should study it carefully. Do you ever get acared, riding Im Accidents are few, considering the number of passengers. But if you want to play safe, keep sn eye on the elevator door. Three fnurths of elevator accidents occur at the doors or by falling down the ehaft. Most of these arcldents can be eliminated by Installing interlocks. With them In place, the car' cannot move 'until the door Is cloeed, and the door cannot be opened until the car is nt the floor landing. Engineers en dorse this as real Safety Klrst. Archimedes. Greek mathematician, some 8500. years ago Invented the first -"flying chair" a crude elevator, lifted by ropes, operated by man-power. It was not until lsS that George Fox invented the first power elevator, lifted by a screw-plunger. Steam elevator was displaced by hydraulic type, still used by the thousands. The electric elevator cams in about thirty-five years ago. Observe that It took more lhan Iwo thmt SAnd years to perfect the crude idea ef Ar chimedes. Fundamental progress le slow in this world, and success is possible only through infinite pstlenee snd tmceastng en desvor in the face of repeated disappoint ments snd failures. That is as true of in dividuals as It is of inventions and progres sive movements. " " It wss the elevstor, perfected by Amer icans, that made poeelble the creation of skyscrapers The skyscraper Increases con gestion ot , population, so It Is ss much a curse as a blessing except for land owners snd exploiters. ' Evil, however, frequently breeds good. Thus the elevator, producing the skyscraper, compelled the development ot fire proof building construction, which has extended out to protect buildings with out elevators. Peculiar, how a commonplace device like the elevator influence our lives end civilization. More Interesting, It IS the only form of frM transportation.

BISHOP CATARRH Just what do you mean by ca tarrh? This word Is one of the eommoneet tn ess todsy for de scribing oertaia Indefinite ailments that people are afflicted with. Popular usage has transformed th word from a scientific medl eal term to a loosely used. Indef inite and often mleleading descrip tive. The term originated In the daya when physicians and medics! practice waa young. Physicians at this time believed disease due for the most part to the conditions of the fluids or humors of ths body. Thus catarrh, originally, waa not a symptom of a local disorder but rather that of a blood disease or Other constitutional disorder. There are several seats of ca tarrh. The head, throat, etomarh. and bowel are usually the com-i moneet. Catarrh of the heed is chronic Inflammation of ths membrsnea of the noes. Sometlmee this Inflam mation la dus to lack of clesnli neaoVand cere: sometimes to sn at mosphere laden with smoke and dust. Often It results from the thickening and overgrowth of the nasal membranes. Dally cold baths and open air often effsct a cure. Catarrh of the throat la usually a continuation downward of that ot the "head." It Is very difficult to cure. The beat results srs ob tained by moving to a climate where the air la free from dust and smoke. Catarrh of the stomach Usually results from such habits ss In dulgence in alcoholic beverages or In highly spiced foode. Regulation of food and exercise are a large part of the specific treatment. Catarrh of the bowela le due to reuses slmllnr to those of catarrh of the stomach. Consllpatlon is a great factor, especially In women.

Now I will say It there le such a thing as ring 1 am not aware ot the fact, and for the benefit ot those who believe there le such a thing as a ring I will slate that every Democratic man or woman, wno la entitled to a vote ha a right to b a candidate In ths Democratic Primary and tu vote in Ihm lunt. The time la on for all who wish to be candidates for the Legisla ture or any county office to file their applications to be voted for In the primary to be held June 3rd. We will be glad that every man and woman that would like to be nominated for Legislature or county office would file their application with the chairman of the board of elections before the 10th day of May. provided they ade Democrat, and we beliove that the people would be glad for some good competent woman, or as many as wish to, fUe their ap rllrstions for the office of their choice. Now I do not euppoee that a woman would want lbs office of sheriff and it may be that some who wish to b candidatea would tike to know the compensation al lowed each of tbe various offices. We will state that the Clerk of buperior Court receives a salary if 4,U00. This Is for one year, and he is now receiving $6,uou lor help In this office, which Is nlso for one year. The salary of ths Register of Deeds for ons year is $1,000, snd he le now receiv ing $1,000 for help, this is tor one 'ar. The members of the Leg islature la one Senator and three for the House. They have been paid 14.00 per day and mileage, and 1 understand will be imid more. Now in the last legislature cne or the membere from Bun combe county was a woman. The pay allowed to the county com missioners Is $S. 00 each per day, and there are three of them. I will state a a member of the Hoard of Commissioners that I lecelved in the year of 121. the eum of 110,000 and will further stale that with this salary 1 huve Den auie to create a bank ac- -HHH ami if 1 should have s-onrt iuck to get In for one more term then probably I will be financially BDie to ouy an up-to-date car and irvei up witn me otner boys, as the 110.00 received is for one year oniy. Now If any man or woman that wants an office should fail to en ter the Primary, then do not charge It to a ring, and if you should enter the primary and be defeated you should know the fact that all cannot be nominated, am! then remember if you are defeat ed you will have with, you plenty of good company.

One time the Fairy Queen gave them eai'h a pair of Green Shoes, which were maglral. These shoes could take the Twins anywhere on the earth or off of it. Indeed, for that matter. They could go any where in the sky or In Fairyland by Just wishing. They had many wonderful ad ventures and proved a great help to the Fairy folk who looked after the Fairy Queen's Nine Hundred and Ninety-Nine KtnRdotns, from helping Mr. Rubadub to spring- clean the birda and animals, to as sisting Mr. Hprinkln-Blow in mak ing the weather up In the sky. Their last adventure was to set tle a dispute betwen the Dlddv-I ewer and the Krneknott In Fairyland, where a wicked Sorcer er, called Twelve Toes, had caused trouble. Now they have returned horn over the Seven Mountains and the Seven Valleys snd are greeted by the Fairy Queen In her Palace where they relate their adventures. Their next adventure Is to be "A Trip to the Moon." There Fairy Queen wan waiting for the Twin when they srrlved at her Palace after a quick trip over the Seven Mountains. They Just wished themselves back and whi they were there! Everybody crowded around to hear the news, first of all their old friend, the Magical Mushroom, who had gone with the children on so msny of their travels. Then, there waa Mr. Rubadub, and fat Mr. Tlngating, and thin Mr. Perth-ble-Rcratch. and funny Mr, Flip-perty-Flop. and Mr. 8prlngle-Blow and Cap'n Pennys-inkle, who had come on business from his coun try under the nea. Indeed, all of the Fairy Queen's helpers were there, nil ear to hear about Ihe Twine' last wonderful adventure. You know they had been to the Land of the Dlddy evvers and Ihe Knrsknolts to set tle some trouble shout two kings. "You are certainly wonderful children:" smiled the good queen. "Whatever would I do without you? I hope you didn't have very much trouble. Are you tired 7" "Not n bit:" declared Nancy. "Goodness no!" said Nick. "It wa a lot of fun. Old Twelve Toes the Sorcerer, did all he could lo stop us. but our magic beat his every time.' "Would you like to help me some more?" said the Fairy Queen, thoughtfully. "Oh, yes. ineed,." .rrled both Twins to gether. "Do you have an other errand?" "res", answered the Queen. "I have just had word from Mr. I'eerabout, the Manln-the-Moon, that he's so busy this spring he can't get along without help. The four winds are very handy and do all they can, but what with some folks wanting a full moon, some wanting it dark, some wanting a wet moon, and some wanting it dry, even the winds aren't enough. He'd be ever so glad lo have you for a while. I'm sure." "Then we'll go," answered Nick, "won't we. Nancy."
