Forty years ago he was running an engiue on the old Raleigh aud Gaston, and through all these years he has had the full confidence of the authorities of the road.

A note received from his son-in-Jaw Mr. A. P. Mustiau Tuesday, conveyed intelligence of the oaath of our ven erable and esteemed friend Dr. J. A. Geogliegan, which occurred at his home in Warren county, at 5 o'clock that morning. He had been in feeble aud declining health a long" time aud the announcement of his death will occasion no surprise to his friends, painful as the tidings may be. Dr. Geogliegan was a man of marked intellectual ablility and in his younger days was a leading figure in the politics of Tenuessee, having represented that State several times in the Legislature. He was a prominent and successful physician,, practicing his profession in Virginia and North Carolina until advancing years aud wasting strength compelled to retire from active life. Moving to this section of North Caroliua about ten years ago he made his home iu the lower portion of the county for some time, removing to Warren later where he has since resided with his son-in-law. Dr. Geogliegan leaves three children, his oldest sou Mr. Geo. P. Geogliegan, being city tax collector of Danville, Va. His wife preceded hitr. to the grave about four years ago. He was about 73 years old. The body was in terred at Brown's church at 4 o'clock yesterday .afternoon. An Affidavit.

Stevens, president, Southport Leader; J. A. Thomas, Louisburg Times; II. A. London, Pittsboro Rec ord; J. A. Ramsey, Raleigh Progres sive Farmer; Thad R. Manning, Hen derson Gold Leaf. Letters and petitions were read from two or three places inviting the Association to hold its session in their midst. After carefully considering the claims of all, the location, etc., and the further tact that many of the members have never visited Wilmington and per sonally know little or nothing of the industries, tesources, environments and people of that portion of the State, it was unanimously decided to accept the infitation of the Chamber of Commerce and citizens of that city to meet there this year. Wednesday and Thursday, July 15th and 16th, were the dates cho sen for holding the convention. There is no more delightful place in the State than Wilmington, and that the editors will be entertained in a mannar entirely in keeping with the hospitality of the noble hearted citizens of the "city of the sea," goes without saying.

Mr. Bouldin was for many years editor of the Danville Time, and is a vierorous writer and original thinker with a style alike pTeasing and unique. The work consists of sketches of the colonial days and is ns instructive as it is entertaining. I ins little book is composed of valua ble historical documents found in an old trunk, which belonged to Col. Thomas Uouluin who, m 1744, settled in that portion of Lunenburg county, Ya., which was afterwards cut off and formed into the county of Charlotte; and traditions of the men and things of colonial days, winch lie received, thirty-four years ago. from an aunt, who was at that time niuety years of age. 1 he names of 120 of the old pioneers are mentioned, with sketches of Clement Head, "Madam" Read.

Thomas Bouldin, Joel Watkins, Abra ham Maury, Samuel Mo- ris and his sister Mary, together with anecdotes of various other persons, all showinc: the habits. manners and customs of the people over 100 years ago; also, a lively picture of the great conflict which arose upon the breaking up of the established church. Vnd the reader will find also, what we venture to 6ay, he never saw before a description of negroes fresh from Africa. In met, every page presents some scene of home life, and while all students of his tory will find pleasure in the perusal of "ihe Uld Trunk," it will be found esnec- ally interesting to the scattered descen dants of the Old Yirginia homes.

Andrews, Vice President of the Southern Railway, is. performing the duties of the President of the road as well as those of the Vice Presidency, and he will continue to do eo for the next three months. Order No. 13 was issued from the Broadway office of the Southern in New York city on April 10th, appointing Col. Andrews to act as President dur ing the absence of Mr. Samuel Spencer in Europe. It was signed by -Mr. Spencer and reads as follows: "During the absence of the Presi dent abroad. Col. A. B. Andrews, Vice President, will, on and after the 11th inst., exercise the authority of the President, as provided for by the by-la ws of the company." The work of dispatching the duties oi ihe chief executive of this great system of railways will necessarily detain Col. Andrews m New York city a great part of his time. He will not forget Raleigh, however and it is certain, that Raleigh will never forget the President Vice Presidentof the Southern railway, whom she is proud to claim as a citi zen. President Spencer has gone abroad for his health. He will be absent in the old country for three months or more. Raleigh Press Visitor. Sick stomach means sick man (or woman.) Why not be well. Sick stomach comes from poor food, poor nourishment; means poor health, poor com fort. Shaker Digestive Cordial means health and a well stomach.

We would feel it less if we took Shaker Diges tive Cordial. v Shaker Digestive Cordial makes your stomach digest all the nourishing food you eat, relieves all the symptoms of indigestion, acts as a tonic and soon makes you well and strong again.

And yet, if the entirely new design on the cover of The Monthly Illustrator and Home and Country, iew lork, for April, should induce you because of its coior so suggestive of lilacs and the Spring which has been long hoped for and vet were so tardy in their coming, saying naught of "Easter" and the "New Woman to investigate further, you will be well repaid.

Copyright by Charles Austin Bates. I Do you expect your advertising to pay unless you give it proper attention? You wouldirt plant seed in the garden and never look at it again. If you did, the chances are that it would never grow into the fruit-bearing stage of develop ment. I saw a notice the other day of an ad vertisement which had been run continu ously in identically the same form since 1866. That advertisement may have done some good, probably did; but, to. bring really adequate returns, advertising should be freshened by frequent changes of copy. 1 have recommended frequent changes to a man, who said: "Yes, but our news paper charges us extra for aomposition 11 we change our ad. ottener than once a week or once a month, as the case might be. lhat doesn t alter the case at all. Ihe advertisement should be changed, and, if it costs a little more, it costs a little more, aud that's all there is of it. It will pay to pay the additional charge. Ashrewd advertiser said to me recently: I like to advertise in papers which charge a good, stiff, extra rate for dis play and for the insertion of cuts. The fact that they do this prevents a good many people using them, and, as a con sequence, my ads. are very much more prominent, for 1 always pay the extra price and use the cuts and display." Advertisements should never De pre pared in a hurry. There ought to be some particular time set apart in each day, or each week, for the consideration of this question. Do not wait until the last minute, and then write something hurriedly, running the risk of making mistakes, and with almost the certainty of failing, to get a really good announce ment. A bad advertisement in a good paper may possibly do sbme good a good ad. in a good paper will always pay. It isn't such a hard thing to write good ads.; it is mainly a question of taking time enough and giving the matter the requisite amount of thought. Do not say you haven't time, because this part of the busiuess is mst as important as any other. In one sense, it is more im portant, because without it the business cannot amount to veiy much.
