[REVIVAL MEETING.
The protracted meeting, which
is in progress at the Presbyterian
church, is being well attended, and
a good deal of interest is being
manifested by the people generally.
Begining on W'ednesday of last
week, a series of preparatory ser
vices were held at hight through
out the week, in which the pastors
of the different churches took part
Saturday night, Mr. Burr, the sing
ing evangelist, arrived and took
charge of the music, but owing to
certain business hindrances, Mr.
Black did not reach Brevard till
Monday night.
OThe preaching at these services is
characterized by simplicity, force
and clear presentation of gospel
truths. Mr. Black is a speaker of
no ordinary ability, and holds the
undivided attention of his audience
from first to last- The evangelists
brought with them a special lot of
singing books, which are distribut
ed among the congregation, and all
are urged to take part in the sing
ing. A special feature of the ser
vices is in the duet singing by Mt*.
Black and Mr. Burr at the close of
each service. Every word of these
songs can be distinctly heard, and
their effect is equal to that of a fine
sermon.
The business men of the town
have so far entered into the spirit
of the meeting as to agree upon
closing their stores in the mornings
from ten to eleven, the hour for
morning services.
Legalized Theft.
We are told that the young Spartans
were taught to steal by the authori
ties for the purpose, presumably, of
maklDg them good foragers in war
time. In Egypt professional thieves
gave in their names to the chief of the
robbers and agreed that he should be
informed of everything they might
steal. The owner of lost goods ap
plied to the chief for their recovery,
and on payment of one-quarter of their
value thay were restored in full. The
chief robber was salaried by the gov
ernment.

HCW A mm IN N. C. STARTED IH
BUSINESS WITH ONLY Gf^E OGLLAR
She is Now Independent and
Cares Not How Bad Tinies
Ai;e—Can be Done by Others.
A woman in North Carolina started
in business with only one dollar and !
now has an income of more than 200 j
dollars a week.
One day she saw an advertisement |
in ' a monthly story paper of I
“WICKE’S SWISS HERB TEA” I
stating that it was the BEST REM
EDY ON THE MARKET for all
Kidney, Liver and Stomach Trou
bles, and while she hnd been trou
bled with all the'-e complaints for
more than 7 years, she wrote to the
manufacturer for a 25-cent package,
which she used careful according to
directions. After one week’s use
slie found that ivll her complaints
had left her and she told the people,
who had known her as a very sick
lady, what she had usxl. All who
Sjivv the wonderful change in her
condition, asked her to get them a
a package, and she sent one dollar to
the manufacturer of the T<a and
asked him to send her as m^ny pack
ages as she could afford for the one
dollar.
She got 8 packages which she sold
at 25 cents each, which gave her a
profit of one dollar on her invest
ment, and 25 sample packages,
which she distributed to other peo
ple and asked them to try this won
derful Herb Tea.
A week later she went to all these
people again and asked them if they
had tried the Tea and what they
thought of it, and to her surprise
she got an order for a package from
every one of these, they all said “the
Tea is wonderful.” She at once
sent for 100 packages and kept on
distributing samples and sold them
all in a week’s time, then she sent
for 500 packages, and now she has 50
other ladies and men working for
her, selling “Wicke’s Swiss Herb
Tea” from house to house, and North
Carolina has never been in so healthy
condition as she is now; the call for
a doctor is only in rare cases or acci-
dent. A druggist offered her the
other day $10,000 for her agency,
but slie declined his offer.
Anyone who has a little push and
energy can do as well as she, and
while there are a few agencies still
open, we advise all who want to
build up an independent business to
write to H. FELDSTEIN, 1375 Myr
tle ave., Brooklyn, N. Y., and send
him a money order for one or more
dollars to secure the agency of their
town. Write today if you want to
build up your own business and be
independent.
