Revenue Officers Found
68 Blockade Distilleries
It is announced that during the
month of September the revenue
officers of North Carolina and a
portion of South Carolina destroy
ed a total of fiS illicit distilleries.
Of these 41 were in the fifth dis
trict of North Carolina, which is
the territory in the western part
of the state. Seven of these
were in eastern North Carolina,
of the fourth district, and 20
were in South Carolina. The
rocr.th had an increase of four
destroyed over August.
"The practice of piiing tobacco
(-talks in heaps and leaving them
exposed to the weather means a
waste of valuable material that
might be returned to the soil.
The practice of burning them is
also wasteful, unless they are in
jected by such a serious disease
as the (»ranville wilt.
CONSUMPTION TAKES
350 PEOPLE DAILY
Over 350 people succumb to con
sumption every day in the United States.
Science proves that the germs only
thrive when the system is weakened from
colds or sickness, overwork, confining
duties or when general weakness exists.
The best physicians point out that
during changing seasons the blood should
be made rich and pure and active by tak
inp Scott's Emulsion after meals. The cod
liver oil in Scott's Emulsion warms the
1 ody by enriching the blood; it peculiarly
strengthens the lungs and throat, while il
upbuilds the resistive forces of the body
to avoid colds and prevent consumption.
if you worlc indoors, tire easily, feel
languid or nervous, Scott's Emulsion is the
most strengtheningfood-medicine known.
It is totally free from alcohol or any
stupefying drug. Avoid substitutes.

James M. Burge was born
in November, 1837, and died j
August 19, 1914, making his
stay on earth 76 years and 9
months. He was married to
Mary J. Smith, who preceded
him to the grave one year and
seven months. Unto this union
was born thirteen children, nine
bovs and four girls, of which ten
are still living.
Mr. Burge's fatal disease was
paralysis. We done for him all
that loving hands could do but
nothing seemed to do any good.
He was laid to rest beside his
beloved companion at Snow-
Creek church. He was a kind
and devoted husband and a good
neighbor, one that.will be great
ly missed. He was strictly
honest, sober, industrious and
correct in all transactions. He
claimed a hope in Christ but
never united with any church.
He highly respected the
Primitive Baptists and loved to
have them visit his home. He
devoted much of his time in his
last days to reading his bible.
A chair is empty now,
A man we loveu is dead
We trust he's where the Saviour
is.
Where no farewell is said.
We hope he is happy.
With his angel plumage on.
But our hearts are very desolate,
To think that he is gone.
We loved him. yes. we loved
him.
But angels loved him more.
And they have sweetly called
him, i
To yonders shining shore.
The golden gates were opened,
A gentle voice said come.
And with farewell unspoken.
He calmly entered home.
Written by his second neice by
marriage.

Carl Ray Drafted !
i
Pitcher Carl Ray has been
drafted by one of the higher class
leagues. The only information
received here was a check for
S3OO and the statement that it
was for the Twin pitcher. It is
believed that the club is either
one of the Southern or Texas
leagues.—Winston Sentinel.
What Would You Do?
There are many times when
one man questions another's ac
tions and motives. Men act
differently under different cir
cumstances. The question is,
what would you do right now if
you had severe cold? Could you
do better than to take Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy? It is
highly recommended by people
who have used it for years and
know its value. Mrs. 0. E.
Sargent, Peru, Ind . , says,
"Chamberlian's Cough Remedy
is worth its weight in gold and
I take pleasure in recommending
it." For sale by All Dealers.

Apply Sloan's Freely For
Lumbago.
Your attacks of Lumbago are
not nearly so hopeless as they
seem. You can relieve them
almost instantly by a simple
application of Sloan's Liniment
on the back and loins. Lumbago
is a form of rheumatism, and
yields perfectly to Sloan's, which
penetrates quickly all in through
the sore, tender muscles, limbers
up the back and makes it feel
fine. Get a bottle of Sloan's
Liniment for 25 cents of any
druggist and have it in the house
—against colds, sore and swollen
joints, rheumatism, neqralgia,
sciatica and like ailments. Your
money back if not satisfied, but
it does give almost instant
| relief.

Sow Crimson Glover
and Save Fertilizer Bills
The indications are that prices of
fertilizer the coming season will be
much higher than usual, owing to the
fact that the supply of fertilizer ma
terials will be largely cut off on ac
count of the European war. This
should cause farmers everywhere to
put land in crops that will save ferti
lizer bills. Nothing will do this better
than Crimson Clover. It is unques
tionably one of the best soil-improv
ers that can be put in, and wherever
it is grown, it gives largely increased
crops of com, cotton and tobacco.
We have secured more liberal sup
plies of Crimson Clover than was ex
pected and will be able to sell at
much more reasonable prices than
was anticipated.
WOOD'S CROP SPECIAL gives
full and interesting information a
bout the fertilizing value of Crimson
Clover; also about other seeds for
Fall sowing. Write for Crop Special
