That this conclusion is erroneous, and that . , Hobson's Eczema Ointment will effect a cure is shown by the following unsolicited testimonial of Mr. Venable Wilson, who for many years was a citizen of Wades boro.

Day after day Wall Street houses sold heavily and this selling was general ly believed to be for some large bull Interest. The recent decline of 10 cents in wheat Is attributed - largely to the selling by people who were lone: on both wheat and cotton. Nat urally cotton suffered. But for va liant support by leading Southern bulls the decline might have been greater than it was. - Warmer and clearer weather throughout pretty much the whole belt has in the gen eral estimation improved the chances ot the crop. Meantime, too, spot markets at i the South have been quiet and the New York stock has been heavily Increasing", giving rise to the impression that bulls will have to take and pay lor more cotton than they originally expected to do. The spot sales at Liverpool hat e decreas ed. The dry goods trade in this country is in by no means as satis factory state as could be desired. Large exports or impending exports are reported but on a basis it is said of sharp discounts nnder the July option, and to some the wobbly con dition of the Liverpool market at times has seemed highly sugreestive. rom some parts of Texas the ad vices are to the effect that the crop outlook could hardly be better. large spot interests have been heavy sellings of both crops. On the other : hand some reports about the crop are distinctly bullish and the statistical position is regard ed by some close students of cotton as strong.

McNeill and Prof. Charles Pea body of Harvard University, who are interested In archaeological discoveries in Cum berland county, passed through Hope Mills on their way to the Davis bridge, about six miles from Hope Mills, to engage in excavating the large Indian mound near that point. Six or eight men Were secured to do the work of excavation and as the mound is 30 feet wide and nearly as long and many feet deep, it will take several days' work to reach all parts of it. A number of skulls and bones have been uncovered,-and it estima ted that fully one hundred and fifty Indians were buried here long be fore the advent of the white man. A pipe made of a substance that ooka like soapstone, and a well-de fined tomahawk were also found. i There are a number of Indian mounds in this county, and most of them are familiar to Dr. McNeill, who has been investigating the mounds for several years. In one grave i Dr. McNeill found where more than one hundred .Indians bad been buried, evidently the victims of a sanguin ary battle. One of the skulls , still had a tomahawk sticking in it. while there were arrow heads in a number of the, skeletons, : showing that they had been thrown into the grave as they fell on the battlefield with the weapons that caused their death remaining in their bodies. !

Gayer finds himself 16 pounds lighter, but stronger, he says, clearer in mind and with better memory and eye sfght. He will consult an occulist fof an opinion on the .improvement of his eyesight. The doctor sleeps outdoors and drinks water freely. He acknowl edges that for the first three days the smell of cooking drove 'him out of the house, but says that harder still he found the deprivation of to bacco. He used to smoke ten cigars a day. His hair has stopped falling out, and he thinks it is turning darker. Throughout the test the doctor has continued his daily exercise and lec tures. He undertook the fast to study the influence of auto-suggestion on the body, and is so pleased with the re&ults that be says he will pro long his fast to 50 days instead of the 30 days firat planned. Physicians will watch him for any dangerous impairment of vitality, and should such be noted the fast will be discon tinued. - r Dritrntd tatCamet Hit Ulna. Now York, May 27.

A stranger unfamiliar with Amer lean methods, on going into one of our big establishments, might get the impression that the hundreds ot employees who are hurrying and scurrying about, doiug a great deal 1. II a a . oi laiKing ana Dusuing, are respon sible for the enormous volume of business being done. But if he should go into a certain private of fice in the establishment, he would probably find sitting there at his desk, a quiet, serene, level-headed man; a man probably of very few words, who dominates and controls all the activities of the hundreds or thousands of employees. He is the head and center, the moving loroe behind all the hurry, bunlle and show. The ' man who aspires to leader ship must be an organizer. He must not only read men like an open book, but judge accurately what to do With them; how to weigh, measure, and place them. It seems as natural and as easy for some people to lead, to command and to control others as to breathe. There Is something in their very personal! ties that dominates others. They are born leaders. They do not need to exercise great will-power. They conquer by the very force of their presence their character as Hercu les conqured those who looked upon his gigantic powerful figure. No matter what situation they are in. they dominate. Put a lot of strange cattle together and they will very quickly decide which is to lead the herd. They will lock horns for a while and test their Btrength, but when the leader has once asserted himself, , by common consent of the rest, who do not ques tion it after the first test, he is mas ter. On every board of directors or trustees, in every organization of men, there Is always one who easily overtops the others; there is always oce man who by tacit consent of all the rest Is recognized as spokesman, as leader. The leader is always characterized by positive qualities. He ruled by his vigorous affirmatives. There is nothing negative or minus about him. The positive man. the natural leader, ia always assertive, while the negative man Bhrink9, effaces him self, waits for some one else to take the initiative. A natural leader does not need to urge those nnder him. They will follow wherever he goes. A good chess player must be ab'e to see a dozen moves ahead. He must keep constantly in mind the unexpected, so that he may meet every move of his opponent. Looking ahead is characteristic of the leader. It is the man who can see far into the future that is wanted everywhere. The man who can provide for the unexpected, for the emergency, is the safe man. On the other hand, there is such a thing as knowing so much and pee ing so much that it makes one timid about undertaking the lead. Someone says: "It is generally the man who does not know any oeiier wno aoes ine things that can not be done. - You see, the blamed fool does not know that It can not be done, so he goes adead and does it." Scholarship, often kills Initiative. Scholars are proverbially timid when it comes to great undertakings. The man who knows little outside of the particular thing he nndei takes fre quently has courage because he does not see the risks, the possible dan gers of failure, of disaster, as clearly as a more intelligent, better educated man sees them. His range of vision is narrow; he just sees ths step he is taking, and so he plunges in with all his energy and enthusiasm. Everywhere there are men who murder the English language every time they open their mouths; men who know almost nothing of books or schools, who are doing things that the college-bred man shrinks from attempting. - Whether the leader be educated or uneducated, he is always able to draw the line between theoretical knowledge and practical ability. He knows that ability that can not be practically applied is useless so far as his work is concerned. There were many men nnder Gen eral Grant who were better educated, more cultivated, more widely read than he, but who could not trans . a. a a mute meir Knowledge into power. On the other hand, what Grant knew he could turn to practical use. You can not be a general and private at the same time. You mu?t either lead or follow; you must either make the program or help carry it out You can not do both If you ex pect to do anything big. The success of the great general de pends largely upon his ability to sur round himself with a staff of officers who can carry out his orders, execute his plans. Grant had many officers who could work harder than he, but be could outgeneral them all. A leader mut be a man of prompt decision. If he vaci'li'f, It ha r.-vcr quite knows bow to take the next step without consulting some one else, his followers, his employees will soon lose respect for him. "You can not do the biggest things in this world unless you can handle men, and you can not handle men if you are not in sympathy vith them." The greatest leaders are those who combine executive ability with kindness and consideration. Em pioyees will not only follow such a leader, but follow him enthusiasti cally, work for him nights and holi days do anything to help him along. But if they see mud at the bottom of his eyes, if he lacks the qualities of manhood, if they see nothing In him to admire and respect, they will tol- low, if they follow at all, as the slave follows his master. There Is no system, there are no ruh s of Lusineas by which a man ran force poople to be loyal to him ami enthusiastic for his welfare. Thorn must be qualities ir himself which will call out their voluntary confi dence and respect. They must see that he is businesslike, that he has executive ability, that he has the qualities of leadership. Then they will follow with zeal and loyalty. If you are a leader, an employer in any line, it is idle to expect that you can call out of your employees qualities which are vastly superior to those you possess yourself. The very Idea of leadership is superiority, T ree of character, executive push, the ability to plan and put an under taking through to a finish. If you are afraid of making ene mies, do not try to lead, for the mo ment you step out of the crowd and show originality, individuality, you will be criticized, condemed, carica tured. It is human nature to throw stones at the head lilted above the Crowd. No great leader ever yet escaped the jealousy and envy of those who could not keep up with him or do what be did. A leader must be positive, aggress ive. He must have an iron will, an inflexible purpose, and boldness bor dering on audacity; he must be able to defy criticism without being in sensible or indifferent to it. Some of ur great leaders have been extremely sensitive in this respect. Criticism was very painful to them, yet they had the qualities of leader ship which urged them on in spite of the pain caused tjy harsh and UDjust criticisms. Many worthy young men have retired from the race for leadership because of the sting in flicted ty the malice and envy of their fellows. They did not think the honey worth the sting. Large leadership today calls for great breadth of view, for the same qualities which made the leader In the past, but much enlarged and de veloped to meet the needs of our time. The vast combinations, the enormous interests involved in our large concerns today require colossal leadership. 'Organization is the one overtow- ering necessity of the times. It comes logically of the vast interests put into one business through incorporated capital." There never was such a demand for leaders, men who can do things, as there is today.
