This is a regular Sun day feature of THE NEWS and most of the ads will be changed weekly. These ads alone make mighty interesting reading, but to make it still more attractive THE NEWS will print each week a silhouette of one of the advertisers. Each advertiser is a well known business man or woman and you may be able to tell who it is at a glance, but to make it easier we print a write up of each advertiser. How It Pays to Visit These Advertisers The first adult who cuts out the advertisement of the man whose picture appears here and presents it at his place of busi ness will be given $1.00 in cash. The next tw^o adults w'ho bring the advertisement will receive 50 cents each. LAST SUNDAY’S PICTURE The portrait in this page last Sunday was quickly recognized by the friends of Mr. W. C. Han cock, of Hancock & Wishart. the pr'tular barbers in the Realty liuilding. Mr. Frank .Tones was the first to present their ad for which he received a dollar, and Albert Lynch and Abe Miller being the next to identify the picture re ceived 50 cents each. The Man You’re Looking For This gentleman is up-to-date and progressive. While we can not live by his output alone it goes a long way toward filling in the chunks in the family menu. He is alw'ays courteous and polite, and has made a pleasant Impression on his many custom ers in Charlotte, many of w'hom are among the best people in the city. The name of the advertiser and those receiving the rewards will be published next Sunday. (Copyrighted 1911, I. C. Cham- berlyne.) W.H. MORRIS MEAT market’ Phone 165 FRESH MEAT, FISH OYSTERS Dr. C.

(37) Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bow'ed herself to the ground; and she took up her son, and w’ent out. The Story. Four stories in the ministry of Elisha are omitted in the scheme of our lessons. They are in order; the account of the healing of the waters of .Jericho; the mockery and destruc- ' tion of the children; a providing of wa- ' ter for the armies in the campaign ■against Moab; and the multiiilication of the oil for the supply of the ne- I ces.sities of the widow. All these took ' jilace during the reign of .Jehorani. I This particular story is a very sim- , pie one, full of interest in itself as a revelation of the manifestation of the power of God through His servant Elisha, but having little bearing on the history of the times save as it throws some incidental light on the (■rophet himself. One u£ the first matters which ar rests the attention is the reverence in f which Elisha was held, as evidenced by the attitude of the woman of Shu- nem towards him. Impressed hy the holiness of his character, she provided hospitality for him as he passed over and anon through Shiinem, but her approach to him w'as always character- I i/.ed by reverence; and the action of | I Gehazi ec jtepially when he attempted | t(' nrevent her from touching the pro-; ! phet, reveals tne fact that he was held j lin avv'e by the people. The kind of life Elisha lived is also incidentall.v revealed. He was evident- j ly journeying Avith his servant through I the country, visiting in all probability ithe scuools of the prophets, and train ing them for the fulfillment of their niinisti-y. In such journeying he ' w’ould always pass througii Shunem, j when going from Samaria, either to j -lezreel or to Carmel. ' His offer to spea4c for her to the king or captain of the host in order to procure any favor she might desire, indicates a connection with the court, and an influence there ui)on grounds of j friendship, and such as Elijah never knew. There can be very little ques tion that the ministry of Elisha dur ing these years w^as recognized and 1 accepted by the king and the people. { Of course the central light of the story reveals the man in his relation- i ship wiVn God. His speech and his ac- j tions, and especially in the hour of ■ need his prayer to God. all reveal him ! as one living in constant fellowship ' with Jehovah, j The Teaching. ! It is impossible to read this story jw'ithout feeling that Elisha had an , influence in Israel which Elijah never bad. He was more a man of the peo- j pie, touching them, familiar with them. His power was evidently felt at the court and his presence wel- • conie in the Homes. Ariiong all people he w^as held in reverence. This is not for a monient to put Elisha into con trast witli Elijah to the disparagement of the latter. Elijah had a special mission to perform and the result of his loyalty was the creation of the atmosiihere in which it was possible for Elisha to do his work for a time. The contrast between them in tem per and tone is most striking. At the same time there is a marked similar ity between the incidents in the course of the two ministries, and this ,similarity is strikingly set forth by Bishop Hall when he says, “Both of them divided the %vaters of .Iordan, the one as his last act, the other as his first. Elijah’s curse Avas the death of the captains and their troops; Elisha’s curse was the death of the children; Elijah rebuked Ahab to his face; Elisha, .lehoram; Elijah supplied the drought of Isratel by rain from heaven: Elisha supplied the drought of the three kings by waters .gushing out of the earth; Elijah increased the oil of the Sareptan; Elisha increased the oil of the prophet’s widow; Elijah raised from death the Sareptan’s son; Elii=ha the Shunammite’s; both of them had one mantle; one spirit; both of them climbed up one Carmel, one heaven.” Thus the testimony of the throne and government of (iod was maintain ed in the national life. Magnificent di versity rather than uniformity of oper ation is ever the method of the spirit. To endeavor to do what another has acconi])lished is to hinder the free working of the spirit, and to make im possible the doing of the v.’ork com mitted to ns. Admiration of God’s mighty workers is an inspiration to heroice effort; but imitation may be responsible for producing caricatures of the great, which .contribute nothing to the - pur])oses of God. The oGiden Text. The choice of the golden text fixes attention upon the one central inci dent of the lesson, and helps us to remember that this act of Elisha, w'hile one of grace, in so far as it bought relief to the woman, was nev ertheless primarily a manifestation of the presence and power of .Jehovah in actual government among his people. The golden text itself carries us away beyond the local story; and teaches us the spiritual lesson that life is always the gift of God; and that His supreme gift is life which is age- abiding. To Stimulate More General Intere s t In Agnculture Now Chinese Baby Empeior-Ditio London, March 11.—The Chinese mail brings an account of the baby emperor w'hich shows that he is very much like other youngsters of six. Recently a doctor who happenea to be an American was called into the palace to prescribe for the infant Son of Heaven who was very sick after a surfeit of edible swallow'ss’ nests (a national delicacy.) The doctor says that the emperor sleeps in a gigantic bed, big enough for six people; he rises at six to eat a breakfast of rice-gruel or rice, qnd then goes to pay his respects to the Dowager Lung-yu. He is on most af fectionate terms with this lady, but his own father and mother must kneel before him. His immediate personal attendant is Mrs. Chang, a middle-aged nurse, who carries him about all day and sleps in a truckle-bed beside his ow’n. The emperor has an abundance of expensive toys to play with. Unfortu nately the sanitary arrangements of the palace are melieval.

(By SIDNEY ESPEY) Washington, March 10.—For the purijose of stimulating a more wide spread interest in the study of agri culture throughout the I'^nited States, among the farming jiopulation, and in the various colleges. Secretary of the Department of Agriculture .Tames S. Wilson, has begun a campaign of pub licity. Already the department has sent out a great deal of literature bear ing on the subject in a general way. Its efi"orts in the future will be con centrated so as to actively interest the farmers through a series of practical demonstrations, conducted at central stations. Lectures at the various col leges will also be given at certain times in the year, to which all those interested in farming will be invited. At present the Amercan system of agricultural education has been high ly developed. It includes a number of dillerent classes of institutions, which, taken together, provide all grades of instrnction, from graduate courses leaning to the doctor’s degrees, to na ture study courses in the kindergar tens and primary schools. These in stitutions include departments of orig inal research, and graduste study in agriculture, agricultural colleges, sec ondary and elementary instruction. The secondary and elementary instruc tion is of comparatively recent; devel opment, but it is becoming an impor tant factor in American agricultural education. The graduate and colle- .giate courses, on the other hand, are well established, and take rank with the best agriculture course‘s In the much older universities and colleges in Europe. The institutions for in struction and research in agriculture are- brought to.gether to constitute a rational system of higher educaiion in the sciences and industries through the Association of American Agricul tural colleges and experiment st.ations, the office of experiment stations of the department of agriculture, and the bureau of education departn'.ent of ih(^ interior. At the head of the system of agricul tural education stands the United .States department of agriculture, and tlie agricultural experiment s«^\tions in the different •states and terirtories. Organised primarily with a reference to research, both the department and the stations, to a considerable extent, directly promote agricultural education in the technical sense, by giving in- si ructions to students. This is done 'by opening their laboratories to assis tants who participate , in research I work, w'hile continuing their studies or I by imparting new Inspiration and 1 knowledge to students through resi dence at the institutions whore 't is ; being conducted. I The work of the department of agri culture along educational lines is rap- i idly increasing. Not only does it con- ! tinue to open its laboratories and li- j braries to officers of the agricultural (Colleges and experiment stations w'ho ! come here to carry on special investi- ■gations. but its different bureaus, offi.- I ces and divisions are doing much to ] encourage all phases of agricultural education throughout the country. The weather bureau is taking r-.ctive part in public education along meteor ological lines. The bureau of plant in dustry" is aiding the school ga’den movement by distributing to a large number of schools special packages of vegetable and flower seeds, together with circulars containing directions for the planting and care of schcK^l gardens, and by co-operating with oth er agencies in conducting experim-antal school gardens. The Forest Service is reaching many educators with lit erature, lanterns slides and other il lustrative material concerning the con servation of the forest resources of the country, and the office of public roads is training road engineers. The office of experiment stations, how'ever, is the general agency of the department of agriculture in the pro motion of agricultural education. The w'ork is organized into tw'o branches; one dealing with agricultural col leges and schools and the other with farmers’ institute and other forms of extension w'ork in agriculture. In re lation to the work the farms’ insti tutes, the offices collects data respect ing the condition and progress of far mers’ institutes in the United States a|id Europe, prepares lecture courses cf study for movable schools of agri culture, condacts correspondence with persons interested in agricultural edu cation, visits educational institutions, lectures before representative farmers’ assembles, assists in forming movable schools and acts as a clearing house, in securing speakers from the depart ment of agriculture. Graduate work in agriculture has been offered by some of the agricul tural colleges for many years, but in the last few years, as a result of the rapid development in the science, the character of graduate work has im proved, and the number of institutions offering graduate courses in agricul ture has greatly increased. A large number of land grant institutions now maintain graduate schools, and there are 41 colleges which provide agricul tural work leading to the master's de gree, and ten offering courses leading to the doctor's degree. From a recent enumeration, by the department of agriculture, 67 colleges were found to be organized under the acts of congress of .luly 2, 1862, Au- igusjLSO, 1890, and March 4, 1907, by whi^ government aid is extended to colleges. In 16 states separate instl- tutions are maintained for white and I colored students, and in 15 of these, i courses in agriculture are maintained. , The only purely agricultral colleges in I the United States, however, is that In Massachusetts. The aggregate value of the perma nent funds and equipment of the land grants colleges and universities in 1910 was $42,664,039; farms and ground owned by institutions, $1.'5,- 136,198; buildings, $38,389,128; appa ratus, $3,.553,989; machinery $2,803,- 630; libraries, $4,136,739; livestock, $452,246; miscellaneous equipment, 84,656,718, making a gi’and total of 8111,882,687. The income of three in stitutions exclusive of the funds re ceived from the United States totaled $18,082,854. The faculties of the land grant in stitution aggregated .5,755 persons, andj students membership last year was 67,227 of wliich 6,586 were colored. ' To this total must be added short term students, such as farmers, farm tenants, and others interested in the work and a large percentage of school children who are engaged for a portion of each year in the elementary agricul tural studies in the common schools. Death of Mr. Basil Muse. Durham, N. C., March 11.—A tele gram received here Thursday an nounced the death of Mr. Basil Muse, the surviving son of Mr; and Mrs. E. G. Muse of this city. A few days ago the father and moth er left Durham for Saranac Lake, New York, where their son was spdening some time in the hope of health. He ment there last year but it had been long known that hope w’as against him. Last week a shocking change for the worse called the parents to him and he died yesterday morning after one of the most pathetic combats with a mortal malady. Hubby’s Marketing. ^ A New Jerseyite had been asked by his wife, w'hose cook had deserted her to order a few things for dinner, on his way to his office. He merely forgot the orders he had received, so that It was with consider able perturbation that he retraced his steps and stopped in at the grocer’s. “And I w ant a head of cabbage sent,’ he added, in conclusion. “What size,” asked the gr6cer. ‘‘Oh, about six and seventh-eighths,”' nonchalaurly responded the Jeraeylto. —February Harper’s,
