The first brick of the Masonic and
Eastern Star Home for Aged and In
digent Masons, their wives ana
daughters, was laid last week at
Greensboro in' the presence, of a
-jiumber of Masons who went out to
Mia - work begin. The building
occupies a lovely site of twenty-five
acres just beyond vLindley Park and

The tobacco farmers of North Car
olina, particularly in the old tobacco
section in Stokes, Surry," Forsyth and
-adjacent counties who have seen their
products taken for twenty -years by
the trust at about fhe cots of cultiva
tion, have come to the conclusion that
there is no hope of protection for
them by the State or Federal Govern
ment bo -long -as the American Tobac
co Conmpany has the influence it now
lias and they are organizing in order
to try to help themselves.
Governor Kitchin last week granted
. ni.nno r frrnr nrisoners in for vari-
-ous terms and crimes, and a commu
tation of sentence to one.
Robert Harrison, the young white
man of Cary whom it was sought in
the Wake court at Raleigh to convict
of manslaughter for the shooting of
Vessie Turner, a small negro boy,
last New Year's night, has been ac
quitted by the jury, members of which
took the view that the killing was en
tirely, accidental. Harrison was try
ing an old revolver by shooting at the
door of a shed and the boy came up
unexpectedly, the ball glanced from
the door and took effect in his head.
In a batch of twenty-three opinions
delivered last week, by the Supreme
court, State vs. Sandlin - from New
Hanover was the most notable, this
against L. M. Sandlin, under sentence
to be .electrocuted for the murder of
his wife in Wilmington.
Fred Ritchie, a lineman in the em
ploy of the Southern Power Company,
was electrocuted at Lexington one
day last week while strapped to a
pole thirty feet from the ground. He
was one of a force that has been
working around Lexington for sever
al weeks and when the accident oc
curred he was helping to make some
changes in the line at the jWenonah I
nmill in Ilia cmittiara end nf tho r
city.
Last week at the regular meeting
of the board of aldermen of Shelby an
election was called for December 5
to vote $15,000 worth of bonds with
which to take over the electric light
plant. The town closed the deal for
the privately owned plant several
days ago, but willjhave to have the
act approved by the citizens in the
form of a bond issue. The sentiment
Is strong for municipal ownership.
Catawba county advocates of bonds
for roads have prepared petitions for
circulation in Newton- and Hickory
townships, calling for an election to
pass o nthe question of issuing bends
to the amount of $50,000 in each town
ship. These will be presented to the
commissioners at the December meet
ing, and they will be asked to call the
election. It was the intention of the
bon dadvocates to take sters to have a
county election but it appears that the J
i uau icgiaiauuu iui uic vuuuijr was
made with the township idea in view,
instead of the whole county as the
unit. t
Cleveland county farmers are hold
ing their cotton for beter prices. Very
few bales are being sold and these go
on the market by people who are una
ble to hold and whose creditors are
pushin gthem for settlement. The
Farmers'. Union is 1,400 strong in the
county and every union man has
pledged himself to hold his; taples.
Mr. R. M. Gidney, one of the leaders
of the union, has been appointed to
make a campaign for the union in the
Interest of the holding movement.
The Durham and South Carolina
Railroad Company, running from Dur
ham to Bonsall, the extreme edge of
Wake county, last week awarded the
contract for an extension of twelve
or more miles to Kipling, where it
30ms. the Raleigh and Southpcrt and
enters into direct connection with the
Atlantic -Coast Line.
The cotton leaf caterpilla which has
a.eared in so many counties is all
over Catawba county, and spreads
with the greatest rapidity. The green
leaves of the plant are eaten while
you wait and the horde moves on.
many call it the army worm, although
the State entomologist has dubbed it
the above-mentioned caterpillar. No
damage wil lbe done by it this late in
Catawba county.

Stages, Cured by
MILAM

Reconstructive
' tonic and blood,

We do not set forth MILAM as a cure
for consumption, but it has proven so bene
ficial to such patients that we believe, and
are supported in our belief by a practicing
physician, that MILAM will arrest incip
ient tuberculosis or consumption in its early
stages. We know that it greatly benefits
even those in the advanced stages.

Scrpfulitic Consumption
City of Danville, State of Virginia -To-wit:
. I, Edmund is. Meaae, iMotary ruDiic in
and for the City of Danville, State of Vir
ginia, do hereby certify that Abram Word,
of Danville, Va., to me well known, did ap
pear before me, and being duly sworn, de
poseth and says as follows:
"For ten years prior to August, 1909, I
was under the care of a regular physician.
Last spring this doctor told me he could do
me no-good, and I tried another for four
months without receiving any benefit from
him.
In August, 1909, 1 began taking Milam,
and am now able to do my work without
difficulty, my appetite is good, and I can
eat and digest any food. . '
' My trouble was said to be Scrofulitic
Consumption, and I was wasted away to a
shadow. O I was so weak that I could hard
ly walk when I commenced on MILAM.
I regard MILAM as a truly valuable reme
dy in all cases of blood trouble, whether
eruptive, or proceeding from a lack of full,
free circulation.
I have recommended MILAM to about
twenty of my friends, and so far as I have
seen or heard from them, they all speak In
the highest terms of it, and are recommend
ing it to their friends.
It was particularly beneficial tome in aid
ing digestion and building up an appetite."

HOLY ROLLERS SPBEAD OUT
New Religious Sect in Catawba Has
Strong Hold on Converts Large
Number of People Ally Themselves
With New Faith.
Newton, Sept. 30. For some time
past the "Holy Rollers," as they, are
called, have been operating in the
eastern part of the county, and there
has been, no little interest in their
doings. Strange stories are told of
the complete mastery which the pe
culiar doctrine obtains over the
minds of cenverts.
It seems that the ministers of the
sect have no faith in doctors of med
icines and lay claim to healing pow
ers. At least one case has been re
ported where a girl died of pneumon
It, refusing to the last to have a phy
sician and spurning even the appli
cation of home remedies.
Tobacco, also, seems to be under
the ban and it Is reported from the
new field of their labors in the west
ern part of the county that a coun
try merchant, immediately after his
conversion, piled all his stock of to
bacco, amounting to no little sum,
and set it on fire.
Converts are said to go off into.
trances and to quiver as if they had
St. Vitus' dance. In these trances
they claim to have visited heaven, it
is said.
Not a few people have joined the
organizations and some of the mem
bers are fairly well-to-do . Outsid
ers marvel at the hold which the doc
trines get on persons and compare
the effect to hypnotism.

Jlf there' is any man in this country who- 'ought to get good,
nonesr snoes ax an nonest nnce it is tne workinsrman.
N Yet what happens when he buys the average shoe for himself or
..nis--iaiimyf, X ; .- - -;
t ) Instead of a shoe that protects his feet properly for the work he
has to do he gets a. poor, weak thing that breaks down cracks
and leaks, loses its fit and. comfort, j
Adulterated Leather in Trust-Made Work-Shoes
Jr The shoe goes back on him because the leather is weak tanned by a
cheap, hasty "process" by the Leather Trust "weighted" with adulterants
to swell the profits of the Trust.
For those low-grade shoes he pays an outrageously high price because the
Leather Trust fixes the price of the leather to suit itself- and because the
shoes carry four needless profits 1
jr -v Profits to the Hide Trust, the Leather Trust,-the Leather Jobber and the
Shoe Jobber.
The Only Work-Shoes Independent of
h the .Leather Trust
K Why doesn't the shoe manufacturer buy
good leather? .
Man alive, he can't! The Trust controls
the tanning industry of America. The ordi
nary manufacturer has got to take Trust
tanned leather or shut his factory down.
There is only one shoe factory in this
country that is independent of the Leather
Trust. That concern is Endicott, Johnson
& Co., and they make the most dependable,
sturdy work-shoes in the United States. ......
. Shoes for the farmer, for the miner, for the
bricklayer, for the teamster for' all heavy
work and wet work outdoors and indoors.
They, get good, old-fashioned leather be
cause they tan it themselves in their own
tanneries.1 They are the only shoemakers
in the-world who tan every pound of leather
they put into their shoes.
Wonderful Endicott - Johnson Leather
Endicott-Johnson Work-Shoes are made of
leather tanned and finished expressly for
work-shoe purposes
. Chrome-tanned upper leather, heavy, tough
and strong, but pliable and soft so that the
shoe will wear a long time, be easy to the feet
and give them ample protection.
"Kromelk" soles (chrome tanned); the
most durable sole leather ever produced
proof against weather and heat, and all but
proof -against wear.
Remember this "Kromelk" sole leather. It
is the first and only perfect chrome-tanned
sole leather in the world. Nobody but
Endicott, Johnson & Co. can produce it
though the Leather Trust has tried.
Work-Shoes Honest All Through
Endicott-Johnson Work-Shoes are solid
leather shoes no "filler" or shoddv
or
pasteboard inside. Just good, honest Endicott-Johnson
leather through and through.
They are handsome shoes good lines and
good style, because they are designed by the
same men who design the Endicott-Johnson
dress shoes that sell for twice the money.
And they are finisned just as carefully, too,'
inside and out. Endicott-Johnson shoemakers
do not know how to make a poor shoe. !
Now you would naturally suppose that
shoes made out of this extra-grade leather,
with such style, and finish, would cost you
more than the ordinary Trust-made shoes.
As a matter of fact Endicott-Johnson shoes
come to you cheaper than any shoe of the
same general type you ever wore. -
How Price Is Kept Down 4
Endicott, Johnson & Co. make good leather
in their own tanneries at rock-bottom cost,
remember.
Endicott-Johnson shoes pay no prof
its tojrusts or Middlemen. They carry
no exorbitant retail profits. Endicott,
Johnson & Co. sell direct to your local shoe
dealer who is willing to make his money by a
fair margin on many sales rather than a
big profit' on a smaller volume of business.
Endicott-Johnson Work-Shoes are made
in several grades, selling at $2i00 to $3.50 a
pair. You can have your choice of numerous
shapes and styles, and a full range of sizes.
Other Endicott-Johnson Shoes
You can get other Endicott-Johnson fines
