CONCORD III BANK CABARRUS THK DKCt DKNCK OP THE IIONR. Baltimore Sun. The Sunday Sun, in special dispatch from London, gave a letter from Lady Colin Campbell which ia doubtless pain ful reading for many excellent ladies Lady Campbell holds women responsi ble for the decadence of home life. The woman is the recognized home maker, and when Bhe fails to make home there can be no home For some reason or another a man cannot make a home, and if a woman does not make one for him he is as home less as a stray dog. "The wife doesn't attempt now adays," says Lady Colin, "to become the comrade of htr husband. She thinks her duties fulfilled when she has s en to the ordering of the dinner. The rest of her time she tries to kill as best she may. Hence, home that is the harbor for the husband becomes a wearisome prison for her, from which she is only too glad to escape on any pretext." And for the irksomenees of home to the homemaker Lady Campbell names three causes. Among "the upper and middle classes" there are two, namely, women's clubs and bridge. In the lower class it is religious revivals. How much superior, in this good lady's es teem, is the lower class to the upper and middle. But is it not likely that for every home injured by religious re vivals or too much religion there are a hundred injured by too little religion? A woman is essentially and by nature reverent and religious, and nine times out of ten it is her religion that serve? to make the home and enables her to bring up her family to be creditable men and women. It may be that clube and bridge do interfere with the home duties and the home life of some 'women. Unques tionably they do is the practice by wo men of playing cards for toney is as general as Lady Campbell seems to in timate. Upon this Bubiect she savh: j . "The passion for bridge has accen tuated a thousandfold the dielike ol home which was bebun by women's clubs. The overmastering desire to ob tain money which has not been earned by work is about the most disintegrat ing and vulgar passion to which a hu man bdngcan fall, and when an idle woman gives way to this insidious ex citement home life may call in vain. The worst part of the bridge craze is itc effect on young girls. What chance ie there of of a girl ever developing a love of home when she has once drunk deep of the excitement of afternoons and eveniegs devoted to bridge and the winning or losing of money?" It is to be hoped that this picture is overdrawn and that the evil of gambling women is confined to a small circle of the most vulgar and vicious class of so ciety. That it has not eatered any great proportion of American homes is certain Modern civilization has unquestion ably changed the home life of multi tudes of our people. A half century ago a great majority of the American families lived in the country. It wae the custom then to have fires only in living rooms, and when the members of the family were in the house they were together. All gathered around the same tire and in the long winter even ings all were around the same light. Parents aided children with their les sons and the children of educated par ents had the benefit of the intelligent conversation of their elders, from which they gathered a great fund of informa tion which the city boy or girl off in their rooms is denied. In the modern city the old-time family life is Impossi ble. There are constant interruptions by visitors; some member of the family is alwayB out; parents are too much oc cupied to aid their children in their Btudies; every room of the house is heated and the family circle is not often seen in the city home. Nevertheless, Lady Colin Campbell draws too gloomy a picture. The kind of woman she de scribes is confined to comparafively narrow limits. Touch on the Frog. Oastonla Gazette. A Newton man discovers that a toad applied to the foot of a fever patient and kept there, would certainly cure the patient. It may be that the same ii a well known remedy, known of old, but it is new here in Newton, he says A young man in this county h&a been very low with typhoid fever for several weekB; bo ill, in fact, that the phyBi ciana irave him ud to die. Another young man had had typhoid and took the frog treatment and was cured, and so the treatment waa applied to the pa tient with gratifying results The young man is reported as convalescing. The toad, the story runneth, turns green and dies, having drawn all the fever from the patient It seems to be, an excellent remedy, but it is tough on the frog. HAH WITH THE SPINNERS. Southern Cotton Planter Preparing to Hold Nev Crop. Washington, Aug. 18 President Harvie Jordan, of the Southern Cotton Association, who appeared before the grand jury to-day in connection with the cotton report scandal, made the following statement this evening when asked for his opinion on the recent meeting of the International Cotton Spinners in London on August 1, which advised foreign spinners to buy no more cotton for '.'0 days except in caacs where the raw material was absolutely needed; "That meeting indicates very clearly that the producers of cotton are to be bitterly fought by the spinners during the next three months. The effort will be made by the foreign spinners to depress the cotton market here by reducing the demand for the raw ma terial so far as possible in o der to break down the present movement of the farmers to demand fair prices for their staple. The present plan of the foreign spinners, it now appears, is to crush the Southern Cotton Association and its efforts at the opening of the fair sea son and force farmers to sacrifice their cotton on a depreesed market, brought about by combination and concert of action among the spinners and bear speculators. Every imaginable device known to human ingenuity will be brought to bear to depress prices dur ing the next four months. "The Southern Cotton Association will meet at Asheville, N. C, September 6, and at that time will fix a minimum price on the present crop which will be fair and just to both producers and spinners, based on a carefully prepared report on the estimated percentage of yield as compared with 1W4. When this minimum price for spot cotton is fixed by the representatives of the dif ferent States on September 6 at Ashe ville every producer of cotton in the South will be called on to Btand by the action of the association and force the consuming world to pay a fair price for the staple. "There will be no surplus of raw cot ton from the crop of T.H1. What is left over unoonsumed on September 1 will beoniy a small rewrv. stock. The mills are now consuming 270,000 bales a week and the demand for cotton goods is enormous at high prices. The farmers are in good financial Bhape to protect tneir staple, and if money is needed Southern bankers are amply able and quite williug to finance the situation. "The producers have just won a not able victory in the face of the largest crop ever produced in this country, and by concerted action forced prices up from f cents in January to 10 centa cn July 3, encountering each day the most intense opposition. The present crop indicates a short yield compared with l'.'O-l, while the consumption of cotton will go forward unabated for the next IS months. Present prices for spot cotton are not high. They represent only a small profit to she producers. If the tight must come it will be forced by the spinners and will be met by deter mined opposition on the prt of the producers. "The crop of K'05 must not be sac rificed. The mills have got to have our cotton, and if they want to Btop buying it at present prices we can stop selling and see whose corncrib and smokehouse will last the longest. Farmers all over the South are rapidly organizing on the eve Of the crisis which threatens that section, and the associa tion has no fear of the final outcome in the struggle which lies just ahead."

Living a Hundred oar Charlotte Observer. - We see that a Ixmdon specialist there are more centenarians in the orld than are suspected and that there should be more. He lay down these rules, observance of which he rays will promote long life. "Be moderate. ' - "Do not worry. "Take plenty of sleep. "Take plenty of exercise. "Eat plenty of sugar, rice, peas, fruit, potatoes, bread and milk. "Eat sparingly of fish and meat." "Almost any person possessing a healthy constitution could live to be a hundred," says the same specialist. But why should any one want to live to b"e a hundred years old? Touching this subject, Lord Bacon wrote: "I make not love to the continuance of days, but to the goodnees of them." Were it given me to choose, I should not be in earnest to see the evening of my age, the extremity of itself being a disease, and a mere return into infancy, so that if perpetuity of life might be given me, I should think what the Oreek poet, said, 'Such an age is mortal evil.' " Why should anybody want to live to be a hundred years old? Fraud Kxpoed. A few counterfeiters have lately been making and trying to sell imitations of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consump tion, Coughs and Colds, and other med icines, thereby defrauding the public. This is to warn you to beware of such people, who seek to-profit, through steal ing the reputation' of remedies which have been successfully curing disease, for over 35 years. A sure protection, U yon, is our name on the wrapper. Ixxik for it, on all Dr. King's, or liuckleu's remedies, as all others are mere imita tations. H. E.

JI!I BtTLEH WAS AV OK ST I'D. Hoston Herald. James Butler, one of the farlest set tlers of Alfred, Me., and a mechanic of some note, had the reputation of leing one of the most skilled prevaricators of his time in the State. The office of an old tavern, now known as the Central house, was his lounging place, where for years afterward his stories were fa mous. Only once was he worsted in a story. It was a blustery day in March. A crowd of drummers were seated around the old fireplace in the office, swopping stories, when in strolled Jim. He filled bis pipe, listened for a while, then said: "Boys, you ought to have seen the cabbage I raised last summer. It was a dandy. I put the seed in the ground ap Boon as the enow was gone, and this one grew and grew, and before it was two weeks old it was as large as an or dinary cabbage. I had just an acre of land in that lot, and I built a fence around it to keep the cattle out. Well, do you know, that by fall that cabbage had grown so fast that it touched the fence on all four sides, and it took a 40 mule team to haul it away." "Is it possible''' asked one if the drummeis. "That almost equals a ket tle I'm having made." "What about your kettle?'' asked Jim. "I'm having a big brass kettle built," replied the traveling man, "aud do you know, it is so large that the men ham mering on one Bide of the kettle can not hear the men pou : ing ou the! other Bide." "Honest? ' asked Jim. "And what in the world are you g( ine to do with a : kettle of that size ? ' "I was thinking," said the drummer, "that I would make yen a present of it ' to cook your cabbage in." Jim thought home would b a pleas ant place about that time. W AV TO TKEAT HA FKVEU.
