Maw I-rS. it n mmssv Ylfr , li Healthy OslT Necessity A True Friend. . By Ella Wheeler Wilcox. If you think and talk continually; about the weary grind of your daily life it will continue to seem so and will not change. How rarely d6 we encounter a hu man being who does not give utter ance to a complaint of this kind. The mother of a family, with her household cares; the father at his office or shop, the teacher, the clerk, the commercial traveler, the mer chant, the newspaper man, the au thor, the artist and the man and wo man of fashion you have heard them one and all bemoan the monotony of life and its duties. yhy add your plaint to the mon ody? Why not sing new words to a more cheerful air? Your work must contain some pleasant features. If it is wholly and absolutely distasteful to you you can never attain the best success and you would be wise to seek other employment. This, if you are determined, can be obtained. Once positively make up your mind what you want to do and set your mental forces to bring about the desired result and "you cannot fail to attain it. No man or woman need remain in a position which makes life cheer less and disagreeable. An intense, persistent desire for something different will bring a change. If, however, your work is not all unpleasant, then stop your constant faultfinding about its monotony. Your mind ought to be able to give variety to what you do. The sun rises every morning and sets every night, yet do two days are exactly alik". The sky, the wind the atmosphere varies. Let your thoughts vary your work. Begin each day with a resolve to find something pleasant and inter esting in life. Enjoy your walk or ride to your office or shop. Walk a portion of the way, if possible, and amuse yourself by deep inhalations of fresh air. There is great enjoyment in mere breathing if you know how to do it. . We often hear it said of a man that he does not know enough to go in when it rains. Such ignorance is much less reprehensible than not knowing enough to breathe, and there are tens of thousands of hu man beings who belong in that cate gory. Life and work assume much more interesting aspects when we learn how to breathe. If all the way to and from your labor you are feeling sorry for your self because life is monotonous, you are building the wall higher which shuts you from the things you de sire. Stop it! ' Say each morning: "This is to be an interesting and successful day for me." If it does not prove to be, then say it the next morning and the next, until it comes true. The moment you find yourself in an absolutely hopeless and despair ing state of mind regarding your work take a vacation. If only for a day still take it. Let your brain rest by giving it new thoughts. You will return to work like one reborn. If you are an author or a musician or an artist, do not sing that old refrain about wishing you did not have to make a potboiler of your talent and that you might work only when inspired. It is a tiresome, worn-out theme, and you are wishing against your highest good wheu you give utter ance to it. .Stop and think how few great men or women in any field of art were independent of it. The phrase "Necessity is the mother of inven tion," applies to art as well as to mechanics. The average artist whatever be his mode of expression is inclined to be an idler and dream er. If he were not spurred on by dire need he would dream wonderful things and accomplish little. However you may feel you are prostituting your art by having to employ it as a pot-boiler, remember you are keeping all your abilities and activities alive and in use. Though you may do five "pieces of work you do not care for you may do a sixth which is great. That sixth you could . not have created only through being in constant practice. You might have dreamed it for years, and continually postponed the act ual labor necessary to its completion. Whether you are an artist or a laborer, take a hopeful outlook, and stop grumbling and whining. A Convincing Annwer. "I hobbled into Mr. Blackmon's drug store one evening, says Wesley Kelson, of Hamilton, Ga., "and he naked me to try Chamberlain's Pain Balm for rheu mutism with which 1 had suffered a Jong time, I told him I had n faith Jn any medicine as they all failed. He said: 'Well if Chamberlain's Pain Balm does not help you, you need not pay for it. J took a bottle of it home and used it ac cortiiDg to the directions and in one week I was cured, and have net since been troubled with rheumatism.' Sold by M. E. Robinson & Bro., J. F. Miller's Drug Store, Goldsboro; J. R. Smith, Mt.Ulive. ARP FEELS BETTER. Bill Writes About His Experience As a Grip Patient. This is a bright and blessed morn ing. I feel better a good deal bet ter. Think I will write a verse or two of poetry. If a sick man has good surroundings it beats medicine Good cheerful company to call and not stay long good children to sym pathize and watch the clock for med icine time, good grandchildren to come and kiss you and go to and from and talk and make a noise; a good wife to scold you and tell how imprudent you have been, and a good doctor to look at your tongue and choke you with a spoon handle so as to see away down the esophagus. But nature has the best of medi cines stowed away in tbe blessed sunshine that gives life and vigor to everything animal and vegetable and revives the drooping spirits of ths sick. It has been a long and hard winter the coldest and most dis agreeable one hundred consecutive days that we have had for years. How I envied the good people of Florida while I read Tom Sawyer's rhapsodies in the Clear Water pa per over the advent of spring with its peach trees and yellow jessamine perfuming the balmy air with their fragrant blossoms. 'But it is coming gentle spring is not far away now and a day like this is its harbinger. If it were not for the daily cata logue of horrible things, that head line the daily papers even a sick man could be calm and serene on such a day as this. An aged country friend told me that he had quit taking the daily papers for it distressed him to read such things. "I haven't long to live, said he, "and I don't wish to cloud my mind with a daily record of human misery." But most all people have to mix up with the af fairs of nations and of men and keep posted about everything that hap pens. We can t skip the bad and read the good only. There is a fas cination about horrible things that we cannot resist. They are the first things we look for. They ex cite our pity or our indignation or our wonder. Our childhood began that way for we never tired of Jack the Giant Killer and Rawbead and Bloody Bones and Robinson Crusoe. And now the editor of the press dispatches carelessly looks over the little slips that are laid upon his desks and reads "Another explosion in the mines one hundred killed;" Another railroad wreck thirteen killed," and then resumes the little anecdote he was narrating to a friend. We are all growing case hardened to pain and grief and suf fering for the same reason that the surgeon becomes case hardened to the pain of his patient. But ever and anon some new hor ror comes along that shocks human ity and astounds the world. I read three long columns last night about the horrors of adulterated food in Paris and how 18,600 infants died the last year from poisoned milk. How the great incorporated dairy companies in . the suburban towns have to deliver 800,000 quarts every night. It is skimmed before it is canned and then is watered 20 per cent before it is put on the cars. On arrival at their depots it is deliver ed in cans to 800 milk boys (garcons) who get $1.40 a night and as much more as they can make by watering the milk from the hydrants that are supplied from the river Seine, the filthiest river in all France. One hundred detectives are employed to watch these boys, but the boys have detectives, too, and are seldom caught or arrested. The superin tendent of the police says it is im possible for one hundred men to fol low and watch eight hundred boys and he now asks for two thousand. This watered milk quickly sours and by the time it is delivered to the re tailer at day break it has to be wa tered again with a solution of bicar bonate of soda. This is the milk that supplies all Paris, and is daily fed to infant children and in a brief time they take cholera infantum or diarrhea and die. The medical fac ulty all testified that this milk caus ed the death of over 18,000 infants in Paris in one year, and the mor tality was on the increase, and this does not include the deaths of chil dren over one' year old. These eight hundred boys are organized into a powerful syndicate for protection and defence. Each pays into their treasury $4 a week, making a total of $14,000 a month with which to pay lawyers' fees and fines and the wages of those in jail and to bribe the city detectives not to catch them when watering the milk. They water it while the wag ons are on the go pumping in be hind with cans of water. The milk suspected is turned over to the city chemists, who analyze and report and if the boys are arrested most of them escape punishment in some corrupt way, but none are discbarg ed. Theygobackat once into the company's service. But Paris is aroused as it never has been and de clares the-death-dealing business shall be broken up if it takes two thousand detectives to pursue the eight hundred boys. "Our children are fed on microbes from the river Seine," is now on every tongue Other cities have taken up thecry and Bouen and Dunkirk show a larger death rate of infants than Paris and now they say no wonder the -population of France is decreas ing instead of increasing. We are poisoning three-fourths of all the chil dren before they are a year old and half the remainder soon after. Seine water, microbes and bicarbonate of soda! This exposure comes from late official sources and is no doubt the truth, or very near it Just think of it and shudder 18,000 innocent, helpless babes murdered in one year in one city. Tom Hood wrote a song about the poor sewing women that aroused all London. If he were alive in Paris now what a pitiful subject he would have for anpther song. What a shame upon our sex, for it is not women who do these things, but men- and boys. The mothers suffer in giying them birth. They nurse and cherish and clasp the little things to their bosoms and love and hope and pray, but the des troyer comes and then all. she can do is to grieve and weep. Eogland slaughtering the Boers and France her innocent children. What next? A.graphic writer in The New York Press describes a different kind of horror that we know not of, but is a living, breathing, seething thing that is not new but has come to stay and grows bigger and more horrible as the years move on. He says: "It would have been unneces sary for Gustav Dore to follow Dante for a text in order to picture the horrors of hell." The government has established free baths at Hot Springs, where thousands of the most miserable of all God's creatures congregate and bathe for relief and a cure from their loathsome di seases. These wretches leave their rags upon the cemented floors which are an inch deep in water, then stag ger or reel or crawl naked as the fiends in the chambers of hell. From thence they crowd into a third room where the water and the air is up to 110, and the stench of foul odors is horrible. In this room are two large pools like vats in a tan yard, and the victims tumble into them like hogs into a mud puddle. No doctor, no soap, no towels, no at tendants, and they are soon hurried out to make room for more, for seven hundred a day is the maximum. Ten, fifteen or twenty at a time soak their loathsome infirmities in the nasty, filthy, hot healing waters, and then recloth themselves with their wet rags and go somewhere to dry. All are benefited and 10 per cent are cured. What a picture! Their lives. such as they have made them, are not worth saving, but they cling to them and live in hope and defy des pair. One hundred and seventy- eight thousand of these human be ings passed through the free baths last year. One bath room is for white men, one for white women, one for negro men and one for negro women. ' Not far away is a magnificent ho tel, and there is a fashionable ball going on. The rich, the gay, the elite are there. ' One moment a man is waltzing with his wife, the next with some other man's wife, the next with somebody's mistress, and the next with his own mistress. Eve rything goes, and all is hell. A fa mous physician took his daughter there this season, but sent her home quickly to keep her from the com pany of the wealthy and diseased parasites. Almost every one who goes there registers tinder an as sumed name and plays incognito during his stay. A southern judge was recently called upon for a toast at a hotel banquet aud said: "Here's to the names we left behind us." But the half has not been told some of it is too bad to tell. Every night the poker rooms are in blast and thousands won and lost. The read er " ponders and wonders can such things be in this Christian land, and in this God's country? Verily, the bumble and the poor who live around us on the hills and in the valleys or down in the piney woods should be thankful for the health and morality that comes from poverty. Burns never wrote a truer verse than that which says: "And I know by the smoke that so gracefully curled From among the dark elms that a cottage was near, And I said to myself if there's peace in this world. The heart that is humble might hope for it here." Bill Arp. The claim of other cough medicines to be as good as Chamberlain' are effect ually set at rest in the following testi monial of Mr. C. D. Glass, an employe oi isartiett & uennis (Jo., uardiner, Me., He says : "I had kept adding to a cold and cough in the winter of 1897, trying every cough medicine I heard of without permanent help, until one day I was in the drug store of Mr. Houlehan, and be advised me to try Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and offered to pay back my mon ey if I was not cured. My lungs and bronchial tubes were very'sore at this time, but I was completely cured by this remedy, and since have alwavs turned to it when I got a cold, and soon fiud re lief. I also recommend it to my friends and glad to say it is the best of all cough medicines. rorsaieoyM. K. Kobinson & Bro., J. F. Miller's Drug Store, Goldsboro; J. R. Smith, Mt. Olive.

On a cot in the Cooper Hospital, with a po liceman on guard part of the time and the hospital attendants keeping a close watch the rest of the time, lies Miss Belle Hanna, of Philadel phia, who had been made insane by a fortune-teller. Some time ago the young woman went to a town in Southern New Jersey and there made the acquain tance of a woman who told fortunes. This woman prophesied all sorts of bad luck for the girl and nearly frightened her to death. The fortune-teller prophesied that Miss Hanna would be poisoned to death. She brooded over it all the time and did not half attend to her work. The result was that she was discharged, and she became violently insane. A physician who examined her, and to whom she told her. story, said it was a form of nervousness brought on by placing too much cre dence in the fortune-teller's words, and advised her to come to Cooper Hospital. Miss Hanna went to the hospital Saturday affernoon, and had been there but a few minutes before she became violent, and it was necessary to send to the city ball for a policeman to watch her. Since then she has grown rapidly worse. Women To tio Armed. Richmond, Va., Feb. 24. As the result of several attempts of crim nal assault on well-known women in the town of Vinton, near Roanoke, Va., a "Ladies' Gun Club" has been formed. The rules of the club re quire every member to carry a pis tol in plain view and to learn how to use it accurately. The matter had been under discussion several weeks.
