Why do We Solicit Almost any Bank can -handle your business after a fashion, when times are good and money is plentiful, but the test of the ability of a Bank to take care of its customers- is given when a panic, such as the one we have just passed through arrives. Having maintained unrestricted currency payment to our customers during the entire period of the Currency shortage, and having taken care of every loan of our customers, we are proud of our record, a record which very few banks were able to make. These things, coupled. with conservative management, care ful personal attention, given by both officers and directors, assure the patrons of this Bank supreme safety for their funds, We invite correspondence or a personal interview.

E. Graham, in May Everybody's. The 20th Century Verson of the Ten Commandments. In this age of -ultra progressr everything has been improved on except, perhaps, a bird's nest. We have every reason to believe that the little wren's nest tucked away under the eaves of Noah's ark was as perfect m construc tion as those made this season, but everything else, has under gone some change for the better or worse. N The ten commandments have been so amended that Moses him self, would not recognize them, should he make a visit to this sublunacy sphere. Thejnodern verson reads thusly: "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." You can worship money to your hearts content, provided you give me part of it." "Thou shalt not make thee any graven images, or bow down thy self unto them nor serve them." "A few golden calves will not matter, as people must have some amusement. " "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain." ''Degrading servility. A man is no man at all, unless he inter lards his conversation with pro fanity." "Remember the Sabbath 'day to keep it holy." "Take all kinds of excursions on trains, enter tain company, and have elaborate refreshments. Do all kinds of odd jobs to save time in the week. Attend especially to. all secular correspondence;, " "Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work." "This only means poor people, Entirely unnecessary for the rich." "Honor thy father, and thy mother," "provided they are rfch, and great, and able to be stow favors otherwise ignore their existence, " "Tho shalt not kill," "unless you have money enough to pay a lawyer to prove that you were temporarily; insane, " "Thou shalt not commit aduh tery;" "unless you have a written order from the courts called ' Divorce'. " "Thou shall -not steal" "Get possession of the property of others as much as ypu like, but call it business' or 4graft,5 " "Thou shalt not bear false wit ness against "thy neighbor" "unless you wish to show up his fault against your own perfec tion ' "Thou'shalt not covet." If you see anything you desire just take it, according tothe new law that 'might is right.' " Perhaps, this is a pessimistic view of the situation, but it is no longer wise to blind ourselves, to our retrogression as a Christian people. It Is an established fact that no people ever drift into perfection. Those who believe that "all's right-with the world" are not go ing to make much effort to make an improvement, but reform must be brought abputhy thosa; who believe in "a long pull, a strong pull, and a, pull all to gether." If we expect the world this rushing, selfish, pleasure-loving world to believe in the God we profess to worship, we must demonstrate purlaith iu Him by a life of service to Him, that will utterly destroy every selfish thought, and act and our whole lives will be spent in sgrvice to, purJellowmftn: Do you think your piffle is fully occupied with, your- own business? Why," bless your soul, yott are doing more for mankind by traps, acting your on business in" a worthy manner, than if you were to do any amount of work, fop them. Do you know the whole life of your neighbor is changed by the way a Christian treats his children, or pays his hirelings, or feeds and shelters his stock, or spends the Sabbath, or pays his debts, or talks about his neighbors? . If we have any "light" it will not fail to shine, and if people are not led in the right way it is surely the fault of the christian world. Our patient, faithful, up right God-fearing life will offset muchsatanic theory, and thrice blessed are the children who have such an object lesson daily. The nations of the earth rise, flourish, and decay altogether ac cording to their faith in God. When their faith wanes no'power can save them from utter -destruction. Ruth Fletcher. N. B. When - we see words misspelled, and instances in which grammar and rhetoric are on a strike, we just understand that it is the fault of our unread able chirography, and not the fault of the long suffering typo.

AiV spending the entire day at the telegraph ofilce he was finally rewarded late in the evening by an affirma tive answer.- .

Hon. Claude Kitchin is Unanim ously Named For . Congress and Other Business. Kinston, May 21i The Con gressional Convention for the secoud district was called to or der shortly after 1 o'cloock by Capt. J. W. Grainger, of this city, as temporary chairman. He stated the object of the meeting and asked Mr. T. O. Rodwell, of Warrenton, to act as temporary secretary. The chairman then called the lists of delegates and the various delegates responded. On motion the temporary or ganization was made . permanent. The chairman then declared nom inations in order for Congress man for the secoud district. Mr. R. W. Pope, of Lenoir county, in a few words placed in nomination the present Repre sentative in. Congress, Hon. Claude Kitchin, of Halifax county. The nomination was seconded by Capt. Swift Galloway,- of Greene The nomination was unanimously made by acclamation. Mr. Kitch in came forward and thanked the convention for his renomination. He said he did not propose to make aspeechortq discuss issues at length, but he wanted to sound a note of warning. He said that the Republicans were looking forward to the coming election with great hope; that it was their purpose to try to reduce Demo cratic majorities 'so as to make North Carolina a doubtful State instead of one, solidly and cer- . i tainly Democratic. He renew ed his pledge of fidelity to the best interest of the people of his district and declared he would ! a"lwars do his best to f U1'ther the I same Mr. Kitchin's remarks were received witn cneers ana much enthusiasm.. At this point Mr. Plato Collins, of Kinston, introduced resolu- ! tions instructing the delegates to is me logical candidate and uiau it is due to him to-day more than to any other that Domocratic prospects are so blight. He argued that our delegates now know as much about the proper nominee, for the party as they will know at Denver, The reso lutions were unanimously adopt ed. A motion was. made and car ried that four delegates be elect ed with no alternates. Messrs. Plato Collins, of Lenoir; J. O. W. Gravely, of Edgecombe; T.. M. Washington, of Wilson, and E. L. Travis, of Halifax, were elected. Mr. N. J. Rouse, of Kinston, I was unanimously selected as th presidential elector from this dis trict. Mr. Rouse, responded to the selection with a short speech in which he expressed his thanks for the honor and accept 2d the commission. He declared that he had always admired and sup ported William Jennings Bryan and he made an eloquent plea for .the election of Bryan or some other good Democrat around, whom all could rally. His speech was reQiyedwith much applause. The several delegations then announced members for the ex ecutive committe as follows: Northampton, J. S. Grant; Halifax, E, L, Travis; Edgecombe, R. 6. Allsbrook; Wilson, E. J. Barnes; Green, J. T. Dixon; Le noir, J. W. Grainger; Berti, A. S. Roscoei Warren, T. O. Rod well.

Success has been symbolized as a woman. Our artists repre sent it as such and our writers attach to it feminine attributed. The goddess Nike typifies vic tory and fortune is known the world over as Dame Fortune. - Now if success be feminine in nature, it must be pursued" and won in, the same fashion as a man J pursues and wins a woman. If he is over attentive to her ishe will regard him with contempt. A wise lover never wooed too diligently, for he knows that the object of his affections would soon tire of his presistent decla rations. He who would win woes from afar. - Now, if success be endowed with the characteristics of a wo man, it would be well to advise the same sort of treatment. Do not pursue success too diligently flirt with her and let your wooing be from a distance. There are' lots of men " who spend all their energy trying to achieve success and in their wild pursuit they fail to perform the actual work before them. You all know about the youth who wasted all his time learning mottoes about suc cess rather than rolling ud his sleeves, pitching in and doing things. These people forget the woman nature of success and are sure to provoke a frown from Dame Fortune. A year before he died, Herbert : Spencer said: "Had I read as much as some other men, I would be as stupid as they." And every truly suc cessful man can declare, "Had I worried about success as much as some other men, I should have been as big a failure as they Herbert Hapgood. "The Old World and Its Ways."

We would advise our young friends who are out of employ ment to seek the agency and can vass for this book.

It was almost like retracing our first trip around ihe world, with less than one-thousandth of the money and one-hundredth of the time required for our "first trip. " The great problems of civiliza tion, religion, philosophy and government in Japan, China, the Philippines, India, as well as Europe, are presented in a clear light by a great brain. Mr. Bryan was 'accompanied on his trip by his wife and two youngyr children, William JM Jr., and Grace, aged 16 and 14, respectively.

PrioeSOo ( stops tl Sgotfb, and twrtateagf THE "SQUARE DEAL" Licoln Steffens Tells How the President Came to Use the Famous Expression, During the Roosevelt-Parker campaign I called on the Presi dent to persuade him to ask the people, instead of the corpora tions, to contribute to his cam paign fun. From the discussion of the democratic principle invol ved it that plan, the conversation changed off into the general sub ject of misrepresentative gov ernment, and finding the Presi dent interested in the political, but not at all in the economic, problems underlying our political questions, L uttered this re--proacb: ''Mr. President, I don't believe you will ever solve any of our real problems. You merely stand for a square deal." Down came his fist" upon his desk. He sprang to his feet. He hadn't herad or he didn 't heed the reproach. No, this man of action seized, as he always does seize out of books and men, that which he had use for, and that alone.- "That's it," he exclaimed. "A square deal. That's exactly what I do stand for.- And I shall say so in my next public utterance." And he did. His next public statement was his famous reply to.Mr. Parker, and he wound it up with "a square deal." Now, the square deal is a very limited remedy, but it has gone far to expose the cause and con ditions of our corruption. Take the case the President himself cites: that of recompensing- Har riman's railroad for the taming of the Colorado River. His mo tion was opposed in Congress by representatives who would favor railroads wrongfully in secret, but who feared to do right by them in the open. They repre sented what they thought was , "public opinion, not the public interest." the roei dent, who says he represents public inter- ., est, not public opinion, was will ing, out loud, in a message, to give a railroad what was right. And by doing so, he showed how Congress misrepresents both public opinion and the public in terest. 'From June Everybody's. Crops and Prices. Secretary of Agriculture Wil son is the administration opti mist. On the basis of reports so far received, he predicts bum per crops for the farmer this year, and a continuance of high food priees. He give as a reason for this fine outlook for the gran ger, and less favorable prospect for those who do not till the soil, that population in this country is increasing faster than crop acre age. There is not enough excess of mouths to eat the bread and meat supply. It is his- opinion that this condition must last un til it is rectified by more digging. Instead of flocking to towns the unemployed must go back to the land. Philadelphia Record. Many poor young iden anxious for college education are not ashamed to do odd nobs around the college to pay their expenses. The American girl is no exception to the rule and many are paying" their expenses, while in college, wholly or in part, by waiting on tables, doing typewriting, assist ing in libraries, darning of stock ings and other little jobs that bring assistance to the needy. It is said that of the 1500 girls at Smith College at Northampton, Mass., 250 are thus paying their way through school. Work is honorable and it is commendable to see so many girls who are so anxious to get an education that they are willing to work for their, more fortunate sisters in order, that they may get the necessary means to pay their sohool expenses.
