until middle life was an active worker

About twenty years ago she began
to be troubled with rheumatism, and
from that time until the day oi ner

relentless disease. Slowly but surely

joys she held so dear. She became
after a time unable to walk, and as
time went on the use of her hands

before her death she was absolutely
holnless. For six vears of that time
she lay in one position, her limbs pit
ifully twisted, ner joints motionless,
often suffering with great pain, but

lost her cheerfulness and her faith

The Courier is the best local paper
in the 6tate. It should be found in
every home in Randolph county. No
child will grow up in ignorance who
can be taught to appreciate the home
paper. It is the stepping stone of
intelligence in all those matters noti
to be learned in books. Give your ,
child a foreign paper winch contains
not one word about any person, place
or thing which they ever saw or per
haps ever heard of, and how can you
expect them to be interested ? But let
them have the home paper and read of
persons whom they meet, and places
with which they are familiar, and
soon an interest is awakened which
increases with every daily arrival of
the local paper. Thus a habit of read
ing is formed and those children will
read the papers all their lives and be
come intelligent men and women, a
credit to theik" ancestors, strong in
their knowledge of the world as it is

The value of advertising is felt at
three ends the merchant, the con
sumer and the publisher. Through
the medium of his advertising the
merchant acquaints the consumer with
the wares he has for sale, with their
values and their attractive features,
and is himself constantly in toucn
with the consumer. The consumer
reads of the goods he wants, learns
where to find them and saves the time
of fruitless hunting from place to
place. The publisher is the go-between
the medium of communication
between the buyer and seller, a sort
of public convenience. Strange -as it
may seem, he, too, has his uses. Ad
vertising accomplishes more good and
better results for all people than any
one feature of commercial life. It is
the modern necessity made so by the
constantly increasing demand of a dis
criminatng pubic.
Trade with the Asheboro merchants
and don't waste your time. Money
and temper on mail-order gocCu. They
will cost you more in the long run and
you have sent your money out of
town. Keep your money where you
have a chance to get hold of it again.
You may have an emergency when
your money has gone to some mail
order house; and too, you may never
see that money again. Patronize
home industries and you will, help
yourself, help the merchants. They
can save you money over the mail
order houses.

AFFAIRS TAKE A DECIDED TURN
IN FAVOR OF GERMANS THR
CHOLERA RAGING IN AUSTRIA
MONDAY
England awaits next move of Ger
mans, which may be attempted inva
sion. Cavalry battles like the world
has never seen on the plains of lower
Flanders. At some places the Ger
mans leave unsanitary trenches. The
Turks again are becoming restless
Cholera is raging in Austria.
In Antwerp everything is quiet af
ter days of turmoil. The Germans
who -arranged with the burgomaster
for the surrender, of the town, all
the military authorities having left
issued a warning to the people that
any disturbances or attacks on Ger
mans will be severely dealth with.
So far as can be ascertained the dam
age done at Antwerp by the bombard
ment was nit so serious as at first re
ported. The cathedral, art gallery,
museum and other public buildings
are in the northwestern part of the
city along the Scheldt, where the
sells did not fall.
TUESDAY
Reports say the Austrians defeat
ed six Russian divisions near Laniut.
and routed a division of Cossacks east
of Nymai. The Japanese have occu
pied the Shantung railroad in the
Shantung province, China. This is
the Chinese state railroad built by the
Germans. China has protested.
The progress of the campaign in
the north of France and" the fall of
Antwerp were forgotten for a mo
ment today by the people of Paris.
who everywhere were discussing the
throwing of bombs on the capital from
German aeroplanes. As a result of a
raid three persons were killed and 14
wounded. Another attack resulted less
disastrously, bombs dropped between
two departing railroad trains failing
to explode.
WEDNESDAY.
From Antwerp forces are sweeping
on to Ostend and French coast towns
in a dash and aerial invasion of Eng
land seems nigh. Berlin reports 40,
000 Russian losses at Pzemsyl, which
Petrograd says Czar's troops still be
siege. Revolt is started against Eng
lish in South Africa.
The headquarters of the Belgian
government were transferred today
to Havre. With the exception of
King Albert, who remains at the head
of the army, and the minister of war,
the members of the cabinet, with the
other government officials and corps
left Osetend by steamer for the
French port where they will carry on
the affairs of state and with the hos
pitality that has been offered to them
by the French government.
The American and Spanish minis
ters, both of whom are still at Brus
sels, are the only diplomatic repres
entatives accredited to Belgium re
maining in that country.
This is the third move of the Bel
gian capital since the Germans si
lenced the forts at Liege. The gov
ernment moved from Brussels to Ant
werp thence to Ostend and today
across the line to Havre.
ATTENTION! MEMBERS OF THE
JUNIOR ORDER
Tarboro, N. C, Oct. 10, 1914.
To members of the Jr. 0. U. A. M. of
' North Carolina:
On the third day of next November,
there will be submitted to the people
of North Carolina for their approval
or disapproval, an amendment to
the State Constitution which if car
ried will increase the present term of
the public schools from four months
each year to six months each year.
Article IX, section three, reads as
follows:
"Each county of the state shall be
divided into a conveneient number of
districts in which one or more schools
shall be maintained at least four
months in every year.'
The proposed amendment simply
changes the word "four" to the word
"six."
The Junior Order stands for the
public schools and has in the past
shown its faith by its works, and any
change that will be for the geod of the
present system and insure to the chil
dren of the state more schools anil
better schools, the Order stands
nledged to sunnort.
Regardless of creed or nolitics I
.take this opportunity of urging all
loyal Juniors to support this amend
ment. Fraternally yours,
