The Best Bank is the one that serves most people well Citizens Bank and Trust Co. r Why a NATIONAL BANK is Best A National Bank is under the supervision of the United States Government. Laws governing National Ranks are very strict. Tliev are required to submit to the government a sworn detailed statement FIVE TIMES a 3 ear. The stockholders are held responsible for DOUBLE the amount of their stock. This is for the benefit of the depositors The capital stock is required to be paid in cash, and must be held intact for the benefit of the depositors. The Rank is required each year to add to its surplus account before declaring dividends. This is for the further security of the depositors. A National Rank cannot loan more than 10 per cent, of its capital to one man or firm. The Concord National Bank Capital $100,000 Surplus and Undivided Profits $26,000 No large amount required to start an account.

Brother Excell and myself began evangelistic meetings in Evansville, Indiana, last Sunday in Evans' hall, a splendid auditorium, seating about 2,500 or 3,000. We are holding two services a day with increasing inter est and crowds, and the promise is for a good and great meeting here. In the Associated I'ress telegram from California I ran across the fol lowing paragraph : "Perhaps never in the history of the city has there been so little crime in San Francisco. With the saloons closed, Chinatown, the Barbara coast and other haunts of criminals wiped out, and soldiers and marines on al most every residence district, there have been few crimes of any kind. It is the opinion of the police that most of the criminal element has left the city. The saloons, in all proba bility, will remain closed for two months yet. The absence of liquor is controlled by the board of police commissioners. Some of the city of ficials have intimated that they will not permit the saloons to open and liquor to le sold until the present army of officers in the city is with drawn ana normal conditions are en tire! v restored." Now, if that doesn't put the saloon on the black list and -demonstrate that humanity recognizes it as an outlaw and the principal instigator of lawlessness, then 1 am no judge of conditions. The saloon is the hot bed of anarchy and lawlessness, start ing with the saloon-keeper himself and ending with the victim 01 drink on the gallows, paying the penalty of his crime. In manv places like Evansville they say we cannot con trol the saloon because of the large German element or the large Irish emejit of the foreign element. I am disgusted witn talk like tnat. We have nothing but American citi zens nere. because a naturalized wer nian or Irishman is either an Ameri can or he is a fraud, and if he has not been naturalized he has not part in the allotting of the matter of gov ernment over here.

I other afflictions o:' t he heart, attended by ir regular action, palpitation, doziness, smothered sensations and other distress ing symptoms. Three of the promunfit inerodients of which Dr. Pierce's liolden Medical Dis covery is made are recommended by some of the leading writers on Matcrui Sfnlira for the cure of just such cases. Gulden Seal root, for instance, is said by the Un,itki States Disi-kssatory, a stand ard authority, "to impart tone and In creased power to the heart's action." Numerous other b-acli authorities rep resent Golden Seal as an unsurpassed tonic for the muscular system in c ueral, and as the heart is almost wlmliy com posed of muscular tissue, it naturally follows that it must be greatly strength ened by this siixTli. general tonic. But probably the most important ingri'dient of " Golden Medical IMsrowry." so far at Its marvelous cures of valvular a ad other affections of the heart are con cerned, is Stone root, or t 'iifwiNoiiKi ( mi..

I think, however, it is only a sub terfuge on the part of lawless Ameri cans when they talk that sort of talk. When I was in St. Louis twenty years ago they said it was a Catholic city. I said no; a city with more than four thousand saloons and more than a thousand gambling hells, to say nothing of the other na.neless places, that I had too much respect for the Catholic church to say ;t was a Catholic city. I said, "This s the Devil's city." And so it goes t -ery-where. Lawlessness has its er uses and its reasons why it is lawle:t I notice that Sherman's ntarch through Georgia, with troops furnish ed to escort him, has been suddenly stopped on the way. 1 think that was wise. We don't want that now any more than we did want the other Sherman with his soldiers marching through Georgia. There are some things we like, some we do not. Father Sherman is welcome in Geor gia and we extend to him the right hand of friendship, but we want him to say as little about the march through Georgia in the sixties as he can reconcile to his religious belief and duties. Some memories are not as precious to us as the memories of a pleasant dream. They are more like a nightmare. I note that Indiana is booming N ice President Fairbanks as a candi date to succeed Mr. Roosevelt. He is the leading citizen of Indiana, but if Fairbanks is nominated by the Re publican party and Bryan is nomina ted by the Democratic party, that will not be any race at all. Bryan will get under the wire before Fair hanks gets half way around the track. Fairbanks has the longest legs, but he will find the ground slippery and the track muddy. The way is not going to be paved for the Republican party this time like it has been for the last few years. Mc Call is dead; McCurdy is in Europe; Perkins seem to re at the mercy of Jerome, and it seems like Jerome is going to have mercy extended. I tell you when the boodle fund is cut out, the Democrats will have a show. If Mr. Roosevelt runs again, of course he will leat anybody, but he says, and I believe him, that he will not run again. Then next to him Bryan is the most popular man on this continent. Bryan's peerless character, his splendid brain power Hnddvs t.-oble manhood put him a. the forefront. I never voted for BryaM in my life, but I am a Bryan man now against everything on tne pike. I see Governor Hoch, of Kansas, has been in a kissing scrape and he is in trouble. It seems that things were reversed with him. The girls kissed Hobson and the sisters kissed Carnegie, but it seems that Hoch was the kisser in this case. The average woman ought to confine her kisses to husband, father and brother. The average man ought to limit his kisses to wife, mother and daughter. Further than that may come of evil. To say the least of it, newspaj.ers have a big to-do about it and when ever a fellow gets to kissing promis cuously, he is going to get his name and his reputation in the papers and the world will have as much fun as the poor victim has trouble. I notice that prices are slumping in Wall street about this time. Of course there is no reason for this outside of the tussle between the bulls and the bears. Any railroad stocks or bonds in this countrv are worth as much to-day as they were a month ago. Wall street may indi cate the value of stocks and bonds ut their intrinsic value is deter mined bv the net earnings of the roads. The railroads are all doing well. The country is doing well along all commercial lines, and whether the bulls or bears shall be victors, the great businessinterest of this countrv does not care. Yours truly, Sam P. Jones. BONDS FOR PUBLIC ROADS. Many of the counties throughout the State have issued bonds for the construction of macadam and other good roads. The result has been that these counties have been more thoroughly developed and become much , more prosperous than those counties which have been contented with poor roads. The issuing of bonds by a county will mean but a very small increase in taxes, which as the years go on, will be more than counterbalanced by the large increase in the value of land and of other taxable property. It is a fair and equitable arrangement that future generations should pay for a portion of the improvements of our public roads, as they derive as great a benefit as the present generation. Too many have an idea that to bond their county will mean a very large increase in their taxes without their deriving any material benefit from the expenditure, not realizing that the increase in the value of Jproperty, and the decrease in the cost of maintenance of the roads and wear and tear on horses, wagons, harness is so much money saved. Are you interested in good roads? If so, call meetings in various sections of your county to discuss this important question and also the advisability of bonding your county for the purpose of raising sufficient money to ma cadamize the principal roads of your county. The members of the North Caro lina Geological Survey will, as far as possible, meet your committees and deliver addresses in your coun ties regarding the Value of public roads ; the best methods of con structing same and the issuing of bonds. The Geological Survey will also assist in the construction of the the first mile of macadam by fur nishing an engineer to give instruc tions and sujerintend the work.

Hurry at MhIn 1VI1I Send You to (.ibnon Drug; Store for Mloua Stoinaeh TMbletd. "Eat in. haste and repent at leisure" Is an old saying brought up to date.

Of course indigestion has many other causes, but wnatever tne cause, tne reuiedy is the same, Mt-o-na.

Could Not Trust Him. After a wordy argument in which neither scored, two Irishmen decided to fight it out. It was agreed, says the "Washington Post." that when either said "I've enough" the fight should cease. After they had been at it about ten minutes one of them fell, and immediately yelled, "Enough! I've enough !" But his opponent kept on pound-! ing him until a mart who was watch ing them said : I "Why don't you let him up? He says he s got enough. I know he says so," said the victor, between punches, "but he's such a liar you can't believe a word e says." He Knew Whereof he Spoke.

In a small town in Pennsylvania there lives a woman preacher. One Sunday afternoon she heard a timid knock at the parsonage door.

"Dey say der minister lifed in dis house, hey "ies, sir. "Yess? veil, I want to git mar net. "All right ; I can marry you."
