CABBAGE THE YEiR EODBD No Ned tor Northampton Farm ers to Buy Cnbbag& Water-Q!-':" melons Jaly O. ' The section of country between tbe Roanoke and Chowan irivers, in faot the whole of the Northeastern part of the State, is a favored sec tion, the soil being fertile, for the most part, and the climate favorable t growing a great variety ol crops. It is a noticeable fact that ship ments to this section of the products of other sections of the oountry have been on the deorease for few yars, while, a greater variety of products go from here to other markets. During several months of the year cabbage are sold in all the towns ol this section that are erowu in the trucking section around Norfolk and later .fro'n New York and New Jar sey. But there is really no reason why oar farmers should not supply our markets with cabbage. A few enterprising farmers have been growing them for market on a small soale while others' grow enough for family use the year round. This year we saw one of our young farmers 8. T. Gay, Jr., of near Jackson sell ing potatoes in Jackson, and iu con versation with him about his farm ing operations learned that he could have" nice cabbage, of his own raising, on his table everyday in the year. This year he had ripe water melons July 6, about three weeks earlier than most farmers. Last year bis first ripe melons were gath ered July 15. What Mr. Gay has accomplished other farmers can do, Why not experiment? When you want a modern up-to date phys'.c try Chamberlain's Stom ach and Liver Tablots.

Ad Interesting Question, A gentleman traveling in Or egon some time ago purcnasea a stone upon which could be plainly seen the imprint of a fish's tail. Believing the specimen to be a rare one, he brought it to Boston and with proper tools worked atientiy and carefully five hours eachdayor six weeks, picking out the pieces of stone bit by bit, when he was rewarded by finding s perfectly formed petrified fish. over seventeen inches long, some thing like a cod in appearance. The dark outline of the tail, up per and lower Acs and small rip bones is unbroken, the head is very natural, and tbe vertebral column clearly defined on th light stone. The specimen was found on a ledge of rocks on top of a mountain near Portland '3000 feet above the Ifcvel of the sea. How many years ago this fish be. came entombed, or lived, is an' nteresting question. Christian Work. "Tbe Noblest Mind The best contentment has.

STANDARD OIL COMPANY. : Mrs, W. It. Buufrham, In toying remembrance of Elli P. Baughaua, wife of W. R. Baugunvm.; who departed this life sixth month, 19, 1900, in the 29th year of her age, aftet- severe ill ness for nearly two weeks during which time her suffering was be yond human expression. For more thao six years she bad been a constant sufferer from that most dreaded disease dys pepsia," w blob doubtless bus ten ed her final enJ. But amidst all her afflictions she never forgot to labor for the comfort of her bus band, and for the welfare of her relatives and friends, one man ifested a childlike interest in her older sister, deeply sympathizing with her in her sore trials, and was ever thoughtful of her well beiog, aud to the end loved and coofidenced her as a mother; often remarking while in usual health, that, "She loved "Sallie' ass sister but "Sis" as a mother.' Her affection during her last sickness was almost indescriba ble. It extended i.ot only to her relatives, but also to her friends. She seemed toappreciate every kindness, often expressing her thankfulness, for having such good nurses, end so long as con- sciencousness and strength last ed, would gather those about her, in her weals: embrace, proving by ac.ions as well as words, that her love was far reaching. Ore ol the saddest scenes, lo the writer's mind, connected with her death, occorrtd on the morning of the last day of her life, when tbe dear father, who is now more than turee score years, visited the dying daughter, and bade her a lust farewell. As we watched him gently lifting her fevered hand la su and giving it the last parting Was, which to her was uokcows, she being too uncon scious to recognize his voice, we could bst be reminded of the fact, that only a few more fleeting years at longest, and he too would be called away. - Her funeral was conducted by W. F. Jones, Pastor of Rich Square circuit, who visited her several times durrcg'her sickness, and eudeavored to speak words Of comfort to the troubled ones, mingled his tears with thoseof the bereaved acd who spoke in appreciative terms of her value. Abram Fisher of the Society of Friends also spoke a few words, adding testimony to her worth. Her remains were then placed in the Kiiugbani burying ground near her two little babes who bad one before, leaving behind a dear lifant for whose life she earnestly prayed; saying more than once, that '-'She felt perfect ly resigned to go herself but craved that her darling might be spared." But He who never makes a mistake and who knows what is best saw fit to remove it only a few days following its dear mot'ier s departure, and we doubt not bt t mother and children are now enjoying a happy reunion in that better world beyond She leaves behind her a devot- ed husband who watched her till the last, a father, stepmother, sisters and brothers besides a host of relatives aud friends who deeply mourn the loss of one so loved on earth But while we J j weep, we are comforted with the i happy assurance that our loss is ) her eternal gain.
