WAKRENT0;N, N. C, FRIDAY, How-to Advertise. Advertising is telling people -what you have for "sale and why they should buy. It sounds as easy as going to sleep in a feath er bed on a cold night. Every merchant advertises in some form or another. He may use nothing but his voice and a few signs, but he advertises just the same. The merchant should consider advertising from the standpoint of utility. He adver tises in some form or other, al waysr " What is the best--:way"? How can he reach the most peo ple? That means, what medium should be used? The newspaper is a good vehicle for advertising i for it is read by a great number of people. The local . paper is best, for it reaches the people living near at hand. The store sign, the window, other means for conveying advertisements are useful in varying degrees. There is another thing to be considered how to do the advertising, what . to say and how to say it. Appeal to interest, be succinct, say something about the goods, make a specialty of something in advertisement or series of adver tisements. Ex. Plows up a Bucket of Gold. Messrs. Thompson and Allison, two young men living near Saxa pahaw, were plowing one day last week and they struck some thinghardwith the plow. Inves tigating, they found it to be a bucket full of gold coins. One of the coins was on exhibition at the Alamance Loan and Trust Com: pany last week. We examined it. It was about the weight of a five-dollar gold piece, dated 1776, wlt"i theEnol shcoat-of-armsand some unintelligible letters on. one side and a head and the inscript ion "Georgius III, Rex Die Gratia, " on theother side. More than four hundred of these coins were found. This willtotalnbout S2,U00, it is thought.

"Silk of any kind or color may be cleaned in the following man ner," says Woman's Home Com panion for July. "For every quart of water to be used in wash ing a dress, pare and grate one large potato. Put therated po. tatoes into the water, which must be cold and soft; let stand two days without being disturbed in any way, then very carefully pour off the clear liquid from the sedi ment ihto a large convenient vesT sel, into which dip the pieces of silk up and down. "Of course, the silk must not be creased by wringing; let it hang and drip nearly dry, then lay it flat on the table, and wipe it first on one side and then on the other. If necessary to press it, do so between flannel with a mod erate. iron." We desire to call attention to the advertisement of the State Normal and Industral College which appears in this issue Every year sees a steady growth i this great institution devoted to. the higher education of the women of North Carolina. The Mclver Memorial Building pro vision for which was made by the last Genera Assembly, is now in course of erection and will "be ready for occupancy ot the open ing of the fall term. The College last year had a total enrollment of 930 students. Ninety.two counties were repre sented. Nine-tenths of all the graduates of this institution have taught in the schools of North Carolina. The College dormitories are furnished by the State and board is provided at actual cost. Two hundred appointments to the dormitories, apportioned among the several counties according to population, will be awarded to applicants about the inidclle of July. Students who may wish to secure one of these appoint ments should make application before July loth. Dr. Hale on American Travel, In his monthly talk in the July Woman's Home Companion, Dr. Edward Everett Hale protests against the growing commercial izing of travel in America, the making of it a business when it ought to be a pleasure. "The railroad people seem to think," he says "that'if they can make the public understand how to get from New York to Santa Barbara in fifteen minutes, less than it needed a year ago, the great battle of life is gained. . ; "But whoever will try the ex periment of saying, 'We will show you how to goirorn New York to the Pacific and back; again, stop-, ping forty times on the way, and coming back twice the man you 'were when you started,', will make a genuine contribution to the uplift of that hundred million people who are called Ame ricans." - People -insist on morality un. less it's for theMselves,' JUNE 26, 1908. , IN; MEMORIAM! On Sunday, the 10th day of May, nineteen hundred and eight, at 10:25 o'clock; the death angel came and called Mr. T. E. Ben sdn into eternity, : at the age of sixty-eight years. He had been in feeble health for. some time. Mr., Benson was a native of Nash county, but for the last seven years of his life he lived in this county, Warren. - - It was the. pleasure - of theJj: writer . to know the deceased brother. He was a man that was loved by all "who knew" him. A man that feared God. ; The kind esteem in which he was held was attested by the many friends that folio wed his remains to the "Davis burying ground" near Creek, N. C, on Monday, May the 11th. The deceased brother leaves a widow, six sons and two daught ers. His many friends feel there loss, but believe their loss to be heaven's gain. May God's richest blessings rest upon the bereaved family in this their ime of trouble, is the wish and the write. How sweet to trust in Jesus. There is nothing so sublime. It fits us for eternity, and the end of time. 1 A. P. Mustian.- If you will make inquiry it will be a revelation to you how many sucoumb to kidney or bladder troubles in one form or another.

This life-is indeed one of joy and sorrow, sunshine and shadow On the 20th of May 1908 Pauline Burroughs Read, oldest daughter of Jas. M. and Sarah A. Bur roughs and "wife of Rev. H. P. Read, died at her home in Rober- sonville, N. C., after about two weeks illness. Professing re ligion at an early age, she joined Mt. Auburn Christian Church, transferring her membership, to Union Chapel M. E. Church after her marriage, There she re mained a loyal member until death, and there we laid her precious body to await the Mas ter's call. Being of a bright genial nature, possessing, many charms and ennobling virtues. she won a host of f rjends that will lament her early death. - She always manifested an ardent love for her people which rendered her a great favorite in the family. Her personal appearance and home life were characterized by cheerfulness and neatness, which were beautifully attractive and doubtless those who visited her home will remember with me the sweet spirit of love and harmony that prevaded, and with what cheerful pleasure she ministered to friends and loved ones in that home. She entered heartily into her hushand's ministerial work and was a source of inspiration, comfort and help to hhn. We deeply sympathize with the young husband in the sorrowful reali zation that this brightest earthly light has been taken from his home, and pray that the Heavenly light and love will fill his young H'fe, trusting that he will lean for help upon the Powerful Arm. which ' has seemingly afflicted him. Knowing that His dealings with us are always wise and best. Tho we are sad and lonely with out our loved one we rejoice in hope that our loss is her eternal gain. Believing that even to-day she rejoices with her four baby angels and a host of friends around the throne in Heaven, where she will await our coming. She leaves asfather, mother, four brothers and sisters, two devoted aunts, one unel'e and many friends on whom we pray Gods comfort ing grace, and trust He will grant to each a happy reunion in Heaven. . .

' - FIGHTING-THE TRUSTS. The Farmer Needs no "Shot Guns to Fight Them. Since the day that Adam said: "The woman whom Thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat," human na ture has sought to put the fault on some one else if their lives have not proved successful. We so often hear the- sentiment expressed: The world owes me a living, and I propose" to have it," but it is only semi-oceasional-y that one stops to enquire how the world owes us a living., , When Divine Love provided us with a brain tor plan,-and physicalU strength to execute, and gave us His Word for a guide, there was nothing lacking, -but humanwill, to lead us to the highest success, along all financial,7 moral and physicaLlines. - -"There is one little passage in Holy Writ tbat says, "What doth the Lord require of thee, but that thou do jusLly, jind love mercy, and wTalk humbly with thy God?" When twentieth century meth ods lead us to ignore this law, our life barques will strike a snag as sure as the sun shines in the bending heavens above us, and no amount of sophistry will change the fact. So often our farmers bemoan their sad fate, in being at the mercy of speculators, trusts and combines; but let us bring the subject to the bar of reason and common sense, and see if farm ers who are so hampered, did not forge their own chains. When our farmers make their own'supplies, and have enough surplus to sell to some non-pro-dueer to buy their- indispensable groceries, so they can keep their market crops intact, where will the speculator be? Not long ago I read of a man who was longing for the time to come when non producers would have to get on their knees andbeg for one tur nip, and then not get it unless they paid a hundred times the worth of it. Now a spirit like that would-damn its possessor, if he had the wealth of the Indies. There is a worm at the root of his moral growth that will sap every vestage of soiritual.life if he al lows such a sentiment to rest in his heart. It is incumbent upon us to pre vent others from taking undue advantage of us, but may the dear Lord preserve us from the ex tremely popular notions that we can only overcome evil by return ing measure for measure. If farmers intend to take the lead in wealth, (nothing is wealth unless it is honestly obtained) morality and social standing, and go down in history to future generations, as the saviors of the nations it must be accomplished by having their hands .clean every whit. There is a plain, middle ground between "mistreating others, and being mistreated one's self. We need to plant our standard on the ground of eternal justice, and die by it if need be; but if we fail to. recognize the i f others, our course will be like a boomerang that will utterly anni hilate Christian character in its rebound. Are you tired of moral izing? Well; when you live in this world three score years you will understand the dire necessity thei Q is to be forever on the look oat for breakers'ahead. So many good. people are led into shody transactions by stronger minds. I have such an eternal desire to see our farmers rise in the ex alted positions that is their right, and due, and we know so well, that no excellence can endure on an unsound foundation. The farmer is the most import ant men- on this earth, bQ far as supplying human need is con cerned, and when he is dominat ed : by greed, he can do more harm to his fellow men than a dozen other Trusts combined. When he is offered a-living price for his products, and. fails to sell he is in the &ame category with the oil, steel, sugar, and other Trusts. The only, difference is, his Trust is a hundred fold more far more reaching in its soil effects NO. 16. than the others, and the cause of God, as well as people, will rest upon him. A large number of our rural people are in the mid dle of a bad fix, but if they will come right down to facts they will find that they have been" spending too much money, ac cording to the" size of their in come. They have been paying two prices for goods because they bought them on credit. A farmer had better have any known calamity than to have unlimited credit. We will score a great victory when our farmers get too proud to wear borrowed clothes, live on borrowed food, and" drive borrowed teams, hitched, to bor-, - owed vehicles We don't need -, any shot guns to fight the Trusts but only need brains with which the average farmer is well sup-" plied: ' "Rotr Fletcher. Our National Illiteracy. Defining an illiterate as one ten years . of age who can neither read nor write in any language, the American Journal of Educa tion gives some startling facts concerning the amount of illitera cy in the United States.- In 1870 one person in every five in the United States was illiterate. At ' the present time, under the defi nition of an illiterate given above, the proportion is about one in ten. In France there is only one in six teen; in England, Scotland and Holland only - one in forty; in Switzerland one in one hundred and sixty-six; in Denmatk one in five hundred; in Sweden and Nor- way 1 in 1,250, while in Germany illiteracy practically does not exist. The figures are not flatter ing to our national pride.Hbut they, remind us first, that we are still a relatively young country, and, second, that the problem of meet- mg tne eaucationat neeas ojl our hordes, of immigrants is one which must demand an increas ing amount of attention. Of the states in the Union, Iowa has the smallest number of illiterates, her percentage being twenty-three in a thousand, while Louisiana has 385 for each one thousand of her people. From a" table showing the, ratio of illitera cy in each of the states the train ed observer will draw many in teresting con elusions. Two which are ' so palpable as not to escape -the veriest layman are first, that the South is still laboring under the debt of . the ignorance which . slavery fostered, and, second, that the educational crown has departed from New England. Seventeen of the Middle Western states stand above the first New England state in the table of. illit eracy. The sons whom New Eng land has bred are settled on these more fertile plains, and her rock ribbed farms are gradually.be- -ing relinquished into the hands of the untutored immigrant. Home Herald.
