"••r ;-jrmawwwa Mrhy Tea is Both Black and Green. One of the scientists at the Agricultural College of Tokio has been investigating the sub ject of the difference in the col or of tea leaves, and he offers the following explanation: In: making green tea the leaves are j steamed as soon as they are gathered. In the case of black tea the leaves are allowed to fer ment before drying. The re sult is that the finished black tea contains much less tannin than the green. The original tea leaf possesses an- oxidizing enzyme, which is destroyed in the green tea bv steaming. In black tea, during fermentation the enzyme oxidizes the tannin, and gives rise to a brownish product.—Selected. (llionic I>iil:-|*loel. Mr. C. B.

To the Honorable Board of County Commissioners: Gentlemen: The campaign Oi* Good Roads in North Caro lina has reached the stage where wc must either go forward or backward. The recent Con vention of Good Roads advo cates at Raleigh brought to gether representative men from every part oT the State, who with one .accord agree that Good Roads in North Carolina are a vital necessity. The gre:*t dif ficul y confronting us is to dis cover the means whereby they may be secured. The object of the North Carolina Good Roads Association is to promote the interests of better public roads in every county in North Caror iina and in this work we ask the co-operation of every pub lic spirited citizen in the State. The necessity for combined ef fort. however, is obvious to the success of the movement, and .ve hope through this Associa tion to band together the forces in every county in the State to the common end of improving ;very public highway in North Carolina. At a recent meeting of the Executive Committee of this Association the policy to be .ui-sued was carefully over we realize that the first im portant step is to raise a small fund for the purpose of defray ing the necessary expenses in the prosecution of our work. The officers of the Association are. of course, giving their time I md efforts freely, but in the necessary correspondence and distribution of literature there are some small items which must be paid for in the way of Stationery, postage, printing etc., and in the maintaining ol an office for headquarters we will be compelled to make oc casional small cash expendi tures. As yet our plans are not fully matured, and in this prelimi nary state we hope to have the co-operation of every county in the State that wants to improve its public roads and join the procession of iudustral and com mercial activity now marching through this entire section. The Executive Committee believe that the various counties are going to be its most substantial supporters, and to the counties we appeal through you, the Commissioners, in this matter. The movement of course is purely one of public interest and there is no provision from any source for the financial life of our Association. It is hop ed, therefore, that your Board of Commissioners will agree at your next meeting to appropri ate the sum of Ten Dollars. ($10) toward a general fund for the Good Roads Associatioh for the purpose of defraying the small incidental expenses in order that we may proceed with the work in a methodical and effective manner. The time to advance is now, while the move ment is before the people, and with concerted effort we cannot fail to accomplish a wonderful work for the upbuilding of the State. At the forthcoming ses sion of the Legislature, through the efforts of this Association, we shall hope to be in shape to present a practical aud desir able Road Law which will bene fit every township in every coun ty in North Carolina in the mat ter of public roads. I hope your Board will fa vorably consider this matter at its next meeting; any delay means an abatement of interest which will detract from the suc cess of the undertaking. The money may be sent to our Treasurer, Mr. Joseph G. Brown, the President of the Citizens National Bank, at Ral [eigh, N. C., who will be the custodian of all the funds of the Association, and who will give you the Association's receipt for your remittance. Herewith I am sending you a stamped envelope addressed to Professor J. A. Holmes, Chapel Hill, N. C., who is the Secretary of the Association, and with whom all correspon dence relating to these matters should be conducted. Yours very truly, P. H. HANES, President. February 17th, 1902. Uflrlng; a Knn on Chamber. laiu'tf ConKh Remedy. Between the hours of eleven o'clock a. in., and closing time at night on Jan. 25th, 1901, A. F. Clark, Druggist, Glad Springs, Va., sold twelve bot tles of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. He says, "I never handled a medicine that sold better or gave better satisfac tion to my customers." This Remedy has been in general use in Virginia for many years, and the people there are well ac quainted with its excellent qualities. Many of them have testified to the remarkable cures which it has effected. When you need a good, reliable medi cine for a cough or cold, or at tack of grip, use Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and you are certain to be more than pleased with the quick cure which ii affords.

"They have new evidence and I wouldn't be a bit sur prised if they hang James Wil cox," he said. '•Some startling develop ments, then?" "Oh, yes, It seems that just before he was arrested Wilcox drove through the streets of Elizabeth City holding a big live moccasin snake in his mouth." "Well?" "Well, don't you think the ordinary jury will believe that a man who travels around with a live snake between his teeth ought to be hanged on general principles?" A. l*rill(«-r Creutly Surprised. "I never was so much sur prised in my life, as I was with the results of using Chamber lain's Pain Balm," says Henry T. Cook, pressman of the Ashe ville, (N: C.) Gazette. "I con tracted a severe case of rheuma tism early last winter by getting my feet wet. I tried several things for it without benefit. One day while looking over the Gazette, I noticed that Pain Balm was positively guaranteed to cure rheumatism, so bought a bottle of it and before using two thirds of it ray rheumatism had taken its flight and I have not had a rheumatic pain since.'

His DEFINITION OF ETERNITV. "The best illustration of what eternity is, with its end less flight of time," said a Wes tern member of Congress the other day, "was one I heard given by a preacher who was conducting a revival at a Colo rado mining camp. The revi val had been well attended, but there was a poor harvest of souls, and the rough old preach er depicted the joys of heaven and the tortures of hell with discouraging results. One even ing he announced that the revi val would close with that meet ing unless the sinners showed a desire to repent. He then de picted the sufferings of the lost and in telling them how long it would be before they would be freed from their environment or brimstone and hell, he said : "You will suffer for all eternity. Do you know what that means? I'll tell you. If a little sparrow was to dip his bill in the Atlantic ocean and take one drop a day and hop across the country aud put that drop in the Pacific ocean and then hop back to the Atlantic, one hop a day, and if he kept that up until the Atlantic was dry as a bone, it wouldn't be sun-up in hell." "It isn't necessary to add that mourners came to the bench that night and the meet ing continued for some time." —Washington Post. Mr. C. E. VanDeusen, of Ki I bourn.

They all agree that it will not hurt the North Carolina tobaqco for the Cuban article is the leaf used in cigars, while the North Carolina weed is used in smok ing tobacco and cigarettes. The only injury which the growers in this State could suffer would be that some cigarette aud pipe smokers might take to cigars instead when the latter became cheaper. Favorite Nearly Every where.
