It a ncn woman wann mi clothe herself in gorgeous apparel and wear extravagant jewelry, she should do it at the functions of her own class, and not flaunt herself on the streets or at church, or other nlacea of common meeting. "A woman has no more right to tpmnt a crirl into extravagance be yond what she can legitimately have than she has to tempt a man into vice. This responsibility has not been properly impressed. Women of means seem to take a delight in making every other woman who can't keep up with her feel just as bad as possible. "Women of small means, especially young women, have the same love for the beautiful as the rich: the same thing that tempts one tempts the other.

A recent article in the Saturday Even ing Post, in commenting upon the chance that has come over women, Bays that it was once true that a hus band, to brae on his wife, would speak of her rare domestic qualities The truth is that when property goes into the hands of a receiver, most people who have to do with it seem to think that what remains is fair game. It is too. customary to have several receivers appointed, for each to have an agent and attorney, and for a multitude of extras to be put into the bills for clerks and every rnncpivfihle exDense until the poor stockholders who have already lost heavily are denied even a penny. In deed it sometimes happens that the scheme seems to be to take every thing in sight except what the credi tors demand, and if only a small sum could be saved by economy to the stockholders the feeling is that it is too small to trouble over, and that as they have lost most of their investment they might as well lose it all. A careful examination 01 the ex penses, the receivers' fees and attor neys' fees in receiverships would as tonish fair-minded men. If the property is valuable, fees that are outrageous are charged and an army of employes at fancy salaries are too often put in charge. Sometimes both the Federal and State courts take charge, each with receivers and lawvers and agents galore, and they charge often ten fold more than would be charged to a corporation able to pav. The expense of a re ceivership is so unnecessarily great thai creditors will accept a song be fore running the gauntlet of trying to get what is due them from re zeivership settlements. If a Judge Buegests that the allowances are too great, receivers, lawyers ana otners act as if he were robbing them, whereas it ia often the case they have been practicing extortion upon helpless stockholders and creditors. This matter has attained such pro portions as to call for judicial cour age and judgment. When property is in the hands of a receiver or in the bankruptcy court, there ought to be guaranteed strict economy and greatest care to protect the injured people.

Now a new day has come. These next hundred years will see a revolution in agriculture no less far reaching than the revolution in com merce these last hundred. 3. Much as this means to other sections, it means more to the South, because the South alone has more farmers than persons in all other oc cupations combined ft T . 7 out problem, Destoea lUDercuiosis and the hook worm, with which the people of the south have to deal, has now become a concrete propowuon in this section of the State.

For our teachers the greatest work is to hem in bringing about a svstem of education adapted to the needs of country life. Uar text books the whole curriculum, have been made by city people,1 for city people, and have ho appeal to the country dwellers. A change in the viewpoint of all the text books is needed, and the teaching ot the ele ments of agricultural science as well in all rural schools, there is no reason why a- teacher should argue that she is not competent to do this when (if she has studi the text book properly) she probably .knows a deal more of "the knowable things" about history, geography or physi ology subjects which she regards herself as thoroughly competent to handle. ' : ; Is Sorry George Hall Was Captured, fjpxlngton Dispatch. We confess that we are not glad that George Hall has been recaptured and we feel like things ought to be done to the man who informed on him for the paltry sum of ten dollars George Hall was a sorry citizen, an ex-convict, hence without friends. and he joined in a mob or some nve thousand othet George liaus ana others, and lynched the Gillespie negroes who murdered the Lyerlys. Out of all that mob he only was con victed and punished for trampling the law underfoot. It is true that the fact that he was the only one punished doe3 not lessen his crime; but we see no justice whatever in sending such a man to the peniten tiary for fifteen years, when many ol his ilk and scores of his betters were as cuiltv as he. We have never been able to see that matter as any thing her ability to make pies, jams, and It is in the power of the Judge to do j b t a farce We naVe no sym her all round ability to make a happy home. But now it is not so, not be cause the husband or children would not have it so, but because she has decreed otherwise. Now he has to brag on her ability to dress and pa rade and show herself and the num ber of clubs she belongs to and the card games she wins, and the like. Horrid, yes damnable, is the mange. It is wrecking the home and destroy ing the family, while negro women are raising the children." thi. and if he fails he is wronging thf stockholders and creditors who are being exploited.

There are many woman in this world handsome in features, perfect in form, graceful of movement and brilliant of mind, who keep in the background just hKinifl thev have thin, colorless and lusterle88 hair. In Paris they understand things about the hair that we do not know in this country. It was a Parisian, Dr. Sabour- and, who discovered that thin hair and dandruff are caused by a microbe. It. is Parisian Sage that proves Dr Sabour and's theory to be correct, for it is rigidly guaranteed by Gibson Drug Store to kill the dandruff germ and care dandruff, falling hair and itching scalp in two weeks or money back. Parisian Sage is a delightfully pleas ant hair dressing and invigorator ; it is not stickev or greasy. It should be used pathy for Hall; he doubtless ought to be in the pen on general principles. But somebody else ought to have been in comoany with him when he journeyed to Kale'gh, and when he escaped and especially since he has heenreDorted as leaaing an maus- triou3 life in Spartanburg, he ought suffered of the hospital and the attending physicians that the death of the pa tient was due to a well developed case of pellagra. This is the first instance that hat been reported from this section. The symptoms of the disease are eruptions on the hands and face and other parts of the body, the disease causing the patient much suffering. The idea that pellagra ia due to the eating of corn bread has become fixed in the minds ol a number or people, but a reference to the paper of Dr. J. Wood, which was given in synopsis in The Gazette-News Ju ly 15. shows that the experts who are studying this disease have not dis covered to what cause it is aue. ur. Wood in connection with Dr. Bella my, of Wilmington has been study ing this disease, which is very pre valent in New Hanover county, ana cases of which and deaths due to it have since been reported from Dur ham within the last week. Dr. Wood was by no means sure that the disease was due altogether to the eating of corn bread, but thought it was possible to come from other sources as well. 1 he germ does exist, it is said, in corn which has not fully matured, ahd which has been placed in bulk without allowing full curing. Dr. Wooa reportea that he had heated up corn which ehowed pellagra sympt6ms to 90 de grees centergrade and had been un able to destroy the pellagra, so that the cooking evidently does not kill the germs. " As yet. doctors have not come to any conclusion as to what is the best treatment of the disease, which seems to be incurable after it passes a cer tain stage. These later cases which have been reported show that the disease, while it may be more preval ent in some sections of the State than in others, is by no means con fined to any section. Mr. Hughes had lived most of his life in western North Carolina, living at Whittier before going to Canton about three years ago. He has been in the jew elry business for some years. Great consternation has been caus ed in Durham by the reports of pela- lagra in certain sections, and it is reported that some families have dis continued the use of corn bread. There seems to be no general alarm in this section over the appearance of the disease, which is said not to be contagious; but some people are consiaenng the advisability or giv ing up the toothsome corn pone as an article of food. It is said, that there is no danger from eating corn bread made from meal which has been ground from fully matured se lected corn, and that it is in the in- desirability of placing a telephone ia the home ot every while farmer In the county. It is believed that at a result of this movement a develop ment of not less than 5.000 farmers' telephones in Mecklenburg county can be secured. The value of this connection to the 2.800 subscribers to the Charlotte exchange can b very readily understood." The Newt quite correctly aayt that the extension of the telephone system tn the rural communities is now re ceiving more than pasning attention, a general proposition having been laid down that Ok re ia no more reason why the dwellert in cities and town, where easy access and quick communication is to be had. should enjoy telephone service than those in rural communities where personal communications involve the time element, and much greater personal effort. The subject it one which readily appeals to the farmer, and it should appeal with equal if not great er force to the merchant as it la ma terially to his advantage to co-operate with the farmer in the establish ment of this service.
