S.&S. guaranteed purely vegetable ) is a real blood remedy for blood diseases and has no equal. Mrs. Y. T. Buck, of Delaney, Ark., had Scrofula for twenty-five years and most of the time, was under the care of the doctors who could not relieve her. A specialist said he could cure her, but he filled her with arsenic and potash which almost ruined her constitution. She then took' nearty every so-called blood medicine and drank them by the wholesale, but they did not reach her trouble. Some one advised her to try S.S.S. and she verv soon found that she had a real blood remedy at last. She says: "After tak ing one dozen bottles of S.S.S. I am perfectly well, my skin is clear and heajthy and I would not be in my former condition for two thousand dollars. Instead of drying up the poison in my system, like the potash and arsenic, S.S.S. drove the disease out through the skin, and I was perma nently rid of it." ! A Real Blood Remedy. S.S.S. never fails to cure Scrofula, Eczema, Rheumatism Contagious Blood Poison, or any disorder of the blood. Do not rely upon a simple tonic to cure a deep-seated blood disease, but take ft real blood remedy. - , , Uur books free upon appli cation. Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga. The Honorable J. F.

Prices on the stock exchange were in full swing upward all along the line today when Samuel L. Post, Jr., an old and popular member of the exchange,, was seized with heart dis ease and expired almost immediately on the floor. This visitation c death put an immediate stop to the trading in stocks ana . 11 was not resumed tor nearly two hours. The volume of business was. in consequence, largely curtailed, many ac tive operators witnorawing trom the deal ings for the remainder of the day. The confidence of yesterday with which all offerings were absorbed, even a large amount of stocks which had been bought for London account and were resold here, had its effect in London today on the tone of the market there for Ameri can securities. There was active demand and advancing prices as long as the trad ing continued in London and after it ceased large purchases were made here of favorite stocks for London account. The. London buying was the most potent factor in the mkrket and. supplemented by the sympathetic strength radiated from some special stocks, it moved prices upwards to a point materially above last night's Close in the great majority of stocks; but a rush of realizing sales in the closing transactions wiped out the earlier close and at or near the low point touched in a realizing movement earlier in the day. The selling to take profits at the close started in Chicago Gas. which had been most aggressively strong all day, rising in the final hour to 87, the high point of the present upward movement. A fall of over a point at the close induced sell ing in other stocks. Sugar, also, which was the! leader of the market, with a total of nearly 35.000 shares sold, sagged in the final dealings and had a strong Influence in causing the final decline. There was manifest all day, in fact, a rather nervous watchfulness on the part of professional traders for the moment to take the highest profits, and several notable selling movements occurred dur ing the day, with this in view. The early slump in the Rubber shares on account of the reduction of the semi-annual divi dend on the preferred stock from 4 to 2 per cent, led 3 one of these movements. Rubber, preferred, broke 6 at the open ing and the common and preferred stocks moved rather feverishly all day. But the buying for London account, the improved business by the commission houses and the strength in the specialties all' served to give a strong undertone to the market. The covering movement in New Jersey Central was also an element of strength. Therefore, while the profit-taking caused a net loss in a majority of the stocks in the list, the decline was small. The grangers continued in very heavy request Burlington coming next to Suear in the list with several large buying orders exfr. cuted in the stock. ' The total sale of stocks for the dav amounted to 196,071 shares, including American Sugar 35,000. Burlington and Qulncy 27,700, Chicago Gas 25,500, Reading zo.uuu, itocK island 6,100, St. Paul 14.400. Western, Union 6,100, New Jersey Central s,6w, aoutnern taiiway, preferred, 8,400. The bonld market displayed unusual ani mation, the sales aggregating 2,138,000 de spite the cessation of trading for two hours, occasioned by the demise of S. L. Post, Jr. The dealing embraced an ex tensive variety of issues in which marked gains were generally recorded. Con siderable amounts of the middle grade and speculative issues were taken for foreign account ana a revived investment de mand by domestic interests was noted for the' gilt edged mortgages. Improvements of 1 to 2 per cent, were scored in many of the leading properties and there were but few exceptions to the upward trend of values. Governments displayed strength and gained slight fractions on purchases of $126,000. . .. . fJptton Futures. v '.'.(Special to The Messenger.) New York, June 3. The dullness in pot- ton today, surpassed even thftt of yester day. Liverpool sent us surprisingly fa vorable cables. Futures there were slight ly higher," and the spot' sales were again encouraging. Our market opened 2 to points higher, August selling on the first call at 7.20; but there was no enthusiasm and the business was almost nominal. Local scalpers sold in the morning and bought in tne afternoon and their trading chiefly caused the fluctuations. August declined to ' 7.18, advanced to 7.21 and closed at 7.20 to 7.2L with the tone-of the market dull. It is a waiting market and crop accounts will be closely watched. .

It is convenien't, -and, on occasion; useful, to have at hand a terse declar ation of the creed of a' political party. It is therefore with genuihe pleasure and unaffected gratitude that we clip from the Louisville Evening Post and file for ready reference the authorita tive statement that "the -democratic party .stands for sound money, free trade, and home rule; and the Interlop ers should not forget it. The Evening Post Is an organ of the gold-Standard democrats. It was one of the most en ergetic and agile of the organs that stood for .the Indianapolis platform lsat year and helped to roll up a grand total of about 130,000 votes for Pataner and Buckner. "The Interlopers," whom The Evening Post kindly admonishes not to forget the creed, may possibly mean the populists and. silver republi cans, who united with the democrats in the. last campaign, but, we think it more likely that the deslgna'tion Is In tended for the regular democrats and their allies for the great combination that gave about six and a half million votes for Bryan and - free coinage. Sound money," according to The Ev ening Post and the Indianapolis ptlat rorm, means goia, without even a hint toward or a wish for international bi metallism. The votes cast for Palmer and Buckner were the only absolutely unconditional gold standard votes put into tho ballot boxes on the 3rd of No vember las't.

The question of how to get better roads ought to be agitated in North Carolina until we can have such roads that farm ers will be justified in loading teams prop erly. The power of a team has to be gauged by the worst mile of road over which a load must be drawn. All the road may be good except one mile, and that mile measures the load. The team must be loaded for that mile regardless of what could be drawn over the other part. Let us have good roads. Scotland Neck Commonwealth.

Evasion of taxation is attempted by so many persons as to require a more rigor ous method of listing taxables. Many men who are considered good, citizens and members or some church, seem to think there is nothing wrong in their trying to escape or evade taxation. Many men, who would promptly resent any imputa tion upon their honesty, do not hesitate to defraud the state and county wlien they are compelled to list their taxables. They resort to all kinds of tricks and subter fuges, and some commit down right per jury, in concealing or undervaluing the amount . of their property liable to taxa tion. ' The value of so many men's proper ty shrinks so alarmingly (like Vance's catfish) when it is being listed for taxa tion. If you doubt this, Just notice next month when the list taker begins work! As our readers are aware, every tax payer in North Carolina must list ' his taxables in June, and must furnish the list taker with a sworn statement as to the value and description of all property owned by him on the first day in June.
