"I have been subject to Rheumatism and indigestion for a number of years and tried one doctor's treatment after another for stomach trouble until I was firmly convinced that doctor's medi cine could not reach my case. It did not even relieve me. Whenever I would eat solid food my stomach could not retain it, and I was constantly hav ing vomiting spells after eating. My system became weakened down and nervous. I was at the time county treasurer, and became so shaky from it that I could scarecly do the necessa ry writing. Finding I must change my treatment. I determined to try Mrs. Joe. Person's Remedy. I bought three bottles of the Remedy and by the time I took them I knew I was better. Then I continued and took it regularly over a year. Those vomiting spells would return for some time but I stuck to the Remedy. Before I started cn the Remedy I was subject to severe at tacks of Rheumatism and my legs and knees would swell so I could hardly turn in bed. I think first and last I have taken a hundred bottles of the Remedy. It has made a perfect cure of my indigestion and Rheumatism. It is the finest medicine I have ever found for breaking up colds. I have recom mended it largely on my plantation to my tenants and to my friends ev erywhere. It is a remedy that never disappoints, and I cannot say too much in its praise. I would not take thous ands of dollars for what it did for me." BERRY A. PARKS. Aaron, N. C, May 11, J.907. OWNERSHIP OF PRO PERTY NOT WANTED The Board of School Commissioners Will Object to Being Saddled With the Responsibility of Keeping in Re pair the City School Buildings. "The public service board has butted into something with which it had no business," was the statement of Mr. D. B. Smith, a member of the city school board, at the moetting last nig'it in discussing the matter of whether the school property of the city should be vested in the school beard. The matter came up at the last meet ing of the board of aldermen on a rec commendation from the public service board, and out of courtesy to the school board, it was given a chance to be heard on the matter. The city charter now places the re sponsibillty of repairs to the school property in the hands of the service board, and in order to get rid of this responsibility this board wants the ownership of the property turned over to the school board so that it will be liable for repairs. Mr. Smith stated last night that the school board was a co-ordinate bodv with the board of aldermen, and that the service board was only an ap pointive body, and yet it was trying to saddle the school board with proper ty it did not want, and which would sink it in debt. Upon motion a committee was ap pointed to confer with the aluermanic boaTd in this matter. This commit tee is composed of Messrs. Smith, Baird and Sexton. Mr. D. B. Smith, reporting for the chairman of the finance committee, Mr. Jay Hirshinger, who wa?a bsent, made a motion that no bills except those on the payroll be paid except by check, countersigned by the chairman of the fianance committee, and no bills be paid except those passed by the finance committee. This motion was passed. The report of Superintendent Alex ander Graham was read and accepted. He read also a report, from the tenth Trade, which was intended to notify those whose grades are such as to keep Miem from graduating. Out of a class of 37 in this grade, 33 will graduate. The question of whether the board "lad the legal right to pay the salary of; i deceased janitor to his wife before in administrator was appointed, came up. Mr. Smith's advice was asked on this, and he said that while they had no legal right to pay it to other than m administrator, yet he did not think me would be appointed, and it would 'e nothing but right to pay the woman, vho needs the money. Mr. W. S. Orr, general manager of he Mecklenburg County Fair appeared -efore the board and invited the school children to attend the fair next fall in a body. The invitation was extended "his early in order that the fact that hey would attend could be gotten in he catalog. The board accepted the nvitation and the children will attend' he fair. A matter which 'was discussed quite it length came up on a motion of Mr. O. B. Smith that when a teacher was ick, and her pupils had to be taught y another regular teacher that both eceive salaries, and the pay for the 3xtra work of the teacher who taught ".wo grades be adjusted by the two cachers. The reason of this motion was ex plained by Mr. Smith as follows: i When a regular teacher takes other vjpils than her own, there is no provis ion whereby she can get extra pay, and m the other hand, when a teacher is 5ick, her pay is docked for the time 'ost. Mr. Smith thought it unreasonable that there was no arrangement where by a regular teacher doing extra work could get pay for it. Mr. Sexton wanted this matter to go lo the teachers' committee, but a mo tion to this effect was lost by a vote of 5 to 6 and Mr. Smith's original mo tion then passed. Farmer's Union Convention Will Meet Here in April Mr. G. W. Fant, state organizer for the Farmers' Co-Operative Union of America, announces that the an nual meetina: of the state organiza tion will be held in this city April 1st and 2nd.

Ranson is Doing Much Good at East Avenue Tabernacle. Rev. A. J. Ranson, of Spartanburg, S. C. who is conducting evangelistic services at East Avenue Tabernacle, preached two strong sermons yes terday afternoon an dnight. At the afternoon service Mr. Ran son took-for his text the 12th chap ter cf Romans, verses 1 and 2, in which Paul said, "i beseech you therefore brethren, by the mercies of God that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable ser vice: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God." "Beseech is a strong word," said the speaker. "With this 12th chap ter of Romans, Paul begins to draw Conclusions founded upon the agree ment that has gone before. In every preceding chapter, he has given good ground for this exhortation. In the first chapter, he has said that the gospel was the power cf God, ana in the 2nd chapter he has said that God is no respecter of persons. In this book the apostle presents the claims of the gospel on the highest possible grounds, and then goes on to enumerate the blessings, which will follow right living ana the acceptance of this gospel. At the evening service the speaker preached from the Acts 1:8; "But ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you; and ye shall be witnesses unto me, both in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." Mr. Ranscn's sermons are drawing large crowds at the Tabernacle, and much god is being accomplished. The hours of service are 3:30 ana 8'p m. The public is cordially invi ted to both services. JAPANESE CEREAL MARKETS. American Flour Trade Dull Reduced Rice Imports. Consul-Genera 1 Henry B. Miller forwards from Yokohama the follow ing Japanese newspaper extracts in relation to the trade in flour and rice : American flour still continues de pressed so far as the Kobe market is concerned. The stock brought over from last year was about 100, 000 bags. Though this is net large the increasing production of flour in this country (Japan) and the re duction of freight on flour from Amer ica seem to have discouraged dealers. On the resumption of business on Saturday, no dealing to be noted was dene, with the exception of about 120 bags shipped by the Mariuchi Shoten. In reference to the export and im port of rice, a contemporary observes that the export of the grain reached its highest point in 1899, Avhen the total shipment amounted to 871,535 koku. (Koku about 5 bushels.) Since then the export has gradually decreased, and the shipment last year did not amount to more than 156,079 koku. The import of rice, which reached the highest point in 1904, when it amounted to 5,892,714 koku, has since shown a decided de crease, the import for last year be ing only 2,488,572 koku, due, no doubt, to the heavy duty imposed. Funeral of Mr. Harry. The funeral of Mr. W. G Harry was conducted from the home of his sister, Mrs. C. L. Chamfe, II West Vance street, yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The funeral was attended by a large number of the friends of the deceased. The services were conducted by Rev. J. F. Totten, assisted by Rev. Plato Durham.

On this side the bulls were in control and, while iliey did not run prices up sharply, there was litle offering. There was a rumor in circulation that the National Ginners' Association estimates the amount of cotton ginned to March 1st at 10,800,000. There was some suspi cion that this would not be confirmed, and prices sagged down seme 10 points. However, the reaction did net go far till support improved again. The bull side is more popular, and confidence in higher prices is growing. There may be some irregularity before a higher level is reached, and some think this will come if the market holds. Trade conditions are not growing any worse and this will make a better market. Morehead & Co. Hay ward & Clark's Letter. New York, March 4. Liverpool was poor, futures only 2 to 3 up against 5 to 6 higher due, up to the last hour when co-operation from this side caus ed an advance. There seems to be free disposition to follow bull move in near positions in New York, but the leaders in this manipulation appear determined to carry it further. Spot prices in Liverpool are 3 higher since Monday and sales large, 10,000 each yesterday and today. Our market opened about unchang ed, but as May in New York was well held at 13 advance, prices here steadied up some. Trading is profes sional and very cautious. Everybody knows that cotton is not being bulled on its merits but to squeeze shorts and that as soon as news would come fromNew York that people want to liquidate or that a settlement has been arrived at, there would be a scramble to get cut with nobody to take the con tracts. Tentative scalping to catch the whim in New York forms the bulk of the trading. Weather continues good, only light to moderate showers occurred .in por tions of the belt during the past two days. Spot news is mixed. One buy er reports better demand including yesterday's business, about 1,200 soPJ so far at firm quotations. Others say there i only rome looking around ow ing to higher futures to buy off cotton on a tenderable basis. Exporters gen erally aa;ree that there is no new busi ness with Eui'ope. Heyward & Clark. J. S. -zcr e c Co.Ts Letter. New York, March 4. The cotton market was very narrow affair with no particular features of interest. Af ter opening up on the improved cables from abroad, prices rallied further on clique buying. May touched 10.93 and March 10.77 and July advanced to 10.70. The rumors current regarding the National Ginners' Association fig ures made it 10,800,000. This was look ed upon as favorable. There was not much effect on prices as many believed report had been discounted. The mar kets firmness was a feature and while the trading was small, there was not much of a decline on traders' ham mering around eleven cents for May. There rrry be much selling and while prices may work higher for technical reasons, we do not think cotton can hold much above 11 cents ipr any length of time. J. S. Esche & Co.
