Sharpening a Pocketknife.
Cutlers have certain rules for sharp
ening razors, pocketknives, etc. “A
razor,” said one of the craft, “must
be laid fiat on the hone, because It is
hollow ground and requires a fine
edge. But a pocketknife requires a
Stiff edge, and the moment you lay it
flat on a stone, so as to touch the pol
ished side, you Injure the edge. It
niu.st be held at an angle of twenty to
t\vent3’’-five degrees and have an edge
similar to a chisel.”
Quite Likely.
“I didn’t see you at our euchre the
other night,” said the bachelor.
“No,” replied the young Benedict, “as
far as euchre goes with me now, I con
sider ‘home’ the right bower.”
“That’s all right while hearts are
trump, but 1 suppose if chibs should
turn up it would be the left bower.”—

DEMOCRATIC RALLY.
Thursday, Sept. 17th, was a day
to be remembered in Brevard.
Three candidates for stat^ofl&ces on
the Democratic ticket were here
and addressed a large audience.
The speakers were Hon. W. W.
Kitchen, candidate for governor,
Hon. B. F. Aycock, candidate for
Corporation Commissioner, and
Hon, M. L. Shipman, candidate for
Commissioner of Labor and Print
ing. The beauty and chivalry of
the town were out in full force,
and both schools came in a body to
attend the sjieaking, which took
place on the court house grounds.
Hon. M. ]^. Shipman was the
first speaker, introduced by W. E.
Breese jr. Mr. Shipman spoke only
a few minutes, saying that the time
should be given up to the other
speakers. He said that he had
been selected to pilot the future
governor throughout the state. He
referred to his former stay in this
section, and spoke feelingly of the
“land of the sky, whose peaks tow
er toward heaven, and where you
can tickle the feet of tl^e angels.”
W. E. Breese jr. introduced Hon.
B. F. Aycock as the next speaker.
Mr. Aycock also declared that he
would not take up much of the
time, as he knew the people h^d as
sembled to hear the man who was
to be next governor of the state.
In his brief i speech Mr. Aycock
made a decidedly good impression.
He recounted the failure and
treachery of the Republican party
while in office, and shoAved the
claim upon the people’s confidence
held by the Democrats in what
they had done for the state. When
he referred to the brutal conduct of
Republican officials, and the treat
ment of white ladies by negro
policemen, a^ieartiy tipplause broke
forth, led by the feminino part‘ of
the audience. - • . -A .
The third and last speaker was
Hon. W. W. Kitchin, w-ho w'as in
troduced by T. H. Galloway. Lack
of space forbids anything like a
detailed account of this speech.
For at least an hour and a half Mr.
Kitchin held his audience willing
captives. He brought no railing
accusations against the opposing
jmrty, but made strong statements
and backed them by argument that
was dispassionate and convincing.
The whole tenor of his address w^as
remarkably fair, and his treatment
of the Republicans considerate. He
endeavored to i^ersude the members
of that party that their proper
place was in the Democratic ranks
if they desired a voice in the gov
ernment and did not wish to be
controlled by bosses. His discuss
ion of national issues, such as tariff
reform and the trusts, was clear
enough to be understood almost by
a child. In comparing the two
candidates for president, he declar
ed that Taft was a man w'lio had
always received his honors from
above by appointment, and so was
not in a position to feel the grati
tude and sympathy toward the peo
ple, which would naturally belong
to a man who had received his hon
ors from them. Taft, hd said, was
an echo of Roosevelt, who might
do very well 'witli Roosevelt at
hand to consult with, but what
would he do when Teddy went on
his great Africian hunt?
In addition to the strong matter
of his argument, Mr. Kitchin dis
played many of the graces of a
good speaker, possessing a fine per
sonal appearance and a splendid
voice, which dispite the difficulty
of open air speaking, carried his
message to the remotes" listener
without apparent effort. He was
interrupted by frequent applause,
and when he referred to the west’s
original opposition to him, his re
marks were received with great
good humor.
Immediately after the speaking,
the three candidates left Brevard
on the 4:30 train.
How To Get Strongr.
P. J. Daly, of 1247 W. Confrress St.,
Chicago, tells of a way to become
strong. He says; “My mother, who
is old and was very feeble, is deriv
ing so much benefit from Electric
Bitters, that I feel it’s my duty to
tell those who need a tonic and
strengthening medicine about it. In
my mother’s case a marked gain in
flesh has resulted, insomnia lias been
overcome, and she is steadily grow
ing stronijer.” Electric Bitters quick
