TAKE A Gentle Laxative And Appetizer j Strong Plea for Popular Education. Address of Mrs. Lindsay Patterson, of North Carolina, Before the Conference for Educatioa in the South Effective Work of Wo men's Cubs. Mrs. Lindsay Patterson, o! North Carolina, in licr stirring address be fore the Conference for Education in the South at Lexington, Ky., made an eant plea for popular educa tion. She said in part: "All children have a dreamland a land that beckons and soothes and charms; a land where one's fancy wanders and one's heart lingers. Mine was your beautiful country of Kentucky. "One of the family plantations was at Cumberland Clap, where Kentucky, Virginia and Tennessee march to gether, and through the plantation ran the old Wilderness road, traveled so many years ago by the buffalo hunting the salt licks; by the Indians hunting the buffalo, and by Boone and his men hunting homes. Along that same road we also traveled four children on one horse Old Bill, twenty years ago, and broad as he was long, given to lying down in the creek with us on hot days and spin ning round and round like a top, when he had gone as far as he thought he ought to go; yet notwithstanding these trifle idiosyncrasies, worth his weight in radium nothing in your State or any other could touch him. "My brother rode first, because he was a boy, and the horse was his father's; then my cousin rode next, because he was another boy; then my girl cousin, because she was com pany, and I, last, because I was only n girl and nobody in particular. Every day we paraded to the sulphur springs, because sulphur water puri- iieu uie uioou, ana puruying the blood was a very momentous thine: in those times, exceeded only in im portance by Bible verse and good manners. "Our blood properly attended to, if the weather were fair, we followed the Wilderness road to the gap in the mountain. There we rested, hunted Indian arrowheads, ate our fried chicken and horse cakes and looked over into Kentucky. Then we claimed things; my brother claimed the farms of Kentucky; my cousin the creeks that had catfish and swimro6 hoioo. my girl cousin the little pigs and muscovy ducks; but I claimed always the Wilderness road. My claim met with no approval, but I didn't care: I knew what I wanted, and that was that some time or other it would take me all the way into Kentucky. To dav the Wilderness road ends where " i i my neart nas long been, witn you, and I am very glad. "North Carolina is that section of our country known as tne awiui Warning. We are the white illiter ates of America, not plain illiterates, we could staler along under that burden, but white illiterates. We had done ourday's work and were sitting down with our knitting while the other States were yawning and rub bing their eyes and wondering if it were not getting up time. So, Dr. Mclver, a prophet who is an honor to his country and is honored by it, was only following in the footsteps of the fathers, when, in 11)02, at the State Normal College m Greensboro, he or ganized the first Woman's Associa tion for the Betterment of Public Schools. The movement proved so successful, so beneficial, that other States became interested. "In July, 1903, Prof. P. P. Claxton, of the Summer School of the South, then in session at Knoxville, Tenn., called a meeting of women interested in school improvement. The meet ing lasted two days and educational conditions in each Southern State were thoroughly discussed. It was decided that the best solution of the problem was to form an interstate association with a president andgen eral officers, whose duty it should be to acquaint themselves with what had been done in all the States and bind it together into one harmonious helpful whole, and State officers who should have charge of the work in their own States. If it can be ar ranged, we hope to have yearly meet ing to which we may take our failures and learn how to make them suc cesses. "In Tennessee, an association not yet a year old, reports a piano, free singing lessons, school drills by a re tired army officer, good library, pic tures and magazines. All this has been brought about by one woman, and her only complaint is that the lack of funds prevent her doing more. "In Arkansas, one association raised $400 and another $200 in a little less than three months, the funds, of course, being applied to the improvement of schools. "In Texas the women s clubs are taking up the matter, giving time and labor and money. In Louisiana the work is to be presented at the superintendents' meeting in Baton Kouge. "Now. because this is woman s work as well as womanly work, and the two are by no means always sy nonymous, we ask you every one to help. Scandinavian legends tell us of "primeval words" or words of such tremendous meaning that they possessed a life and power of their own, when called upon, to ban or bless. The people held them in such reverence that their use was largely confined to the priests, who in turn taugbt them to each succeeding gen eration, for, should those holy words be forgotten, tne nation must perish, "America has her primeval words Some of them tell of a small begiu ning, and a growth so stupendous that no man mav foresee the end: they tell of an humble struggle for daily bread and granaries that feed the world, and those Tvords are Roa noke Island, Port Royal, Plymouth Rock, Manhattan and Jamestown. "And when in the course of human events it became necessary to claim the God-given right of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, the Old World, with shuddering amazement, read in the light of a thousand blaz ing camp fires the primeval words of liuuker ilill, Valley Forge, King's Mountain and Yorktown. "Our country 's primeval words live in county and town and stream. There we read the names of men M'ho, with more than kingly generosity, bequeathed a continent to their chil dren, reserving for themselves only six narrow feet of arth. and who. loving life, yet chose death that their land might have life more abund antly. "Shall primeval words like these be written by the fathers and their little children not to be taught to read them? Then, indeed, must the old Scandinavian curse fall upon us and the nation perish." . - - .

Raleigh Biblical Recorder, June 13. We are printing in our news col umns a statement of the shocking disclosures of the criminal filthiness of the American meat packinghouses. It is enough to enrage an outraged people. For a small profit the pack ers have put the health of millions in jeopardy and subjected the people to an abuse that no words can measure. But our purpose here is to call at tention to the attitude of certain men; particularly, the chairman of the committee that has this matter in hand. "At this point," so the dispatches run, "Chairman Wadsworth made a some what heated statement setting forth his reasons for questioning Mr. Neill, and said he should feel free to question the present witness. "I may be called a friend of the pack ers," he said. "I am a friend of the pack ers and a friend of all other American in dustries. I do not believe in fouling our own American nest. We are here as members of the Agricultural Committee of the House of Itepresentatives to pro mote American agriculture, not to injure it or to cast aspersion on it. "This report has cost the agricultural interests of this country millions and millions of dollars, and if our foreign de mand decreases in the next two weeks. the value of American live stock will de crease anywhere from 30 to 50 per cent. nunarea pounds. -f "Uutfor tb "uuf this report, continued iur. vvaaswortn, "tneioreign demand would have gone on as it had in the past. There was absolutely no com plaint," There you are! It is no matter to Mr. Wadsworth that the American people have been fed on all manner of filth. His concern is that the ex posure of this fact will hurt business. He would rather have the fearful con dition of things go on than have the price of steers and hogs go down. Let the people die let prices be kept up! Mr. Wadsworth is not himself in teresting. But he is interesting as a type. There is the man who says you must not criticise your fellow Democrat lest it hurt the party, for getting that it is not so much your duty not to criticise as it is the office holder's duty to keep himself above criticism. That is another form of the Wadsworth type. Again, here comes the dear brother with tears in his eyes saying you must not speak of denominational policies except in praise, lest you hurt the denomina tion. He is simplv a pious form of Wadsworth. The denomination that cannot stand public scrutiny, the policy that cannot be defended with success before the liaptist people, is not worthy of them. I here are many Wadsworths in this world. None of them can look the main question in the face, which is, Is it right? This age a-nd genera tion is too much for them. It was Judas who was so concerned about the mone3r. A hundred years ago the best physician would give you a medicine for your heart without stopping to consider what effect it might have on the liver Even to this good day cougb and cold medicines invariably bind the bowels.

The North Carolina Ham. Raleigh Evening Times. "The North Carolina ham will now nssnme its oia-time ainuv, re maks the Wilmington Star. "No Chican-o in that." And there isn't anything finer in this world of food than the country ham, well cured, wfdl seasoned and well cooked. The Smithfield brand is glorious enough, but the North Carolina ham, with a little brown gravy on the side, tempts the appetite and makes an ill man strong and hungry. It stands in the front rank with the North Carolina shad and the North Carolina 'pos sum and the North Carolina corn. I They are distinctly Tar Heel pro ducts. The man who has a home of his own and who stands in with his wife is not deserving of pity if he fails to secure that which his system desires, and the rest of ns must be satisfied with the neck of the ox which is served by the people who permit us to pay them a monthy stipend that we may save ourselves from starvation. When the hog is execu ted in the wintertime there is a house wife nearby to see that the stock yards are not duplicated near the barnyard. There is no demand for a Reynolds or a Neill. The rich, red meat is neatly trimmed and salted and then sent away to the smoke house and the ashes. By and by it it turns up on the table and hungry man carves it andchucKiesmmsgiee.

Thia an wiv. auu& f CI J Oct tUXJ ill U.TD use boxes made and sold by tie trusts, instead of boxes of their bwn make or of local manufacture, Hon. Edward AV. Pou delivered the folbw ing remarks, as taken from the ton gressional Record. Mr. Pou saii Mr. Chairman, I wish to say a Jew words, supplementing the remarks oany friend from Tennessee, respecting therul ing of the Postoffice Department, liat patrons of the rural free delivery sesrice shall not make their own boxes.butnust buy the boxes put on the market by the trusts. I am not making these rema-ks for home consumption, either; I wantto appeal to the Members of this House to pass a bill allowing the patrons of fliis service to make their own boxes or hive them made. Gentlemen, why ihould these people not be allowed to make their own baxes? The PostofBce Department could say what kind of box ehoild be made, and the patrons of the servce could easily have boxes made corfora ing to such requirements; and they could have boxes made just as good as those sold by the trusts, just as good asthose the Postmaster General require.1! thera to use, at about one-third of the Driee they are compelled to pay now. A lew weeks ago I went Into a hard ware store where a large number d these boxes were on sale, and I was told hv the proprietor of that establishment that boxes which he was compelled to sell for $1.50 could be manufactured for 'I0 cents. He said he was- forced to sell at a profit and could not afford to charge less than $1.50 for one class of boiesand $1.25 for another, but that either kind of box shown could be made for 30 cents. I am told that a worthless sort of box is offered for 50 cents, but the point I am trying to make is this: It is wrong to al low the Postoffice Department to say to the patrons of this service, "You must use boxes prescribed by this Department or you shall not have your mail deliver ed to you. You shall not make your own boxes. You shall not employ some one else to make them, but you must buy from manufacturers who enjoy the favor of this Department or you shall be denied the benefit of this service which you yourselves largely ay for." This, Mr. Chairman, is in effect what we allow the Postoffice Department to say, and I de clare to you it is wrong. toroviaVlneYr'o wh"DtXBBln actoHraBtS 1 with reasonable requirements? Will any gentleman rise here and now and give one single reason why they should not be accorded this privilege? Let the truth come out. Is it not be cause the Department wishes to help cer tain manufacturers? It can not be be cause of the necessity for uniformity in the kind of boxes used, for there is no uniformity nor is there any necessity for such uniformity. I believe I have myself seen half a dozen different shapes of boxes. All that is necessary is a box which will keep the mail dry. I see no reason why wooden boxes may not be used, but I will not press that suggestion. Let the boxes be made of sheet iron or any other metal; let the Department make any reasonable and sensible requirement,and then if the trusts can put thier boxes on the market cheaper than the people can have them made, then the people will probably buy from the trusts; but in the name of common decency don't let a rul ing stand which requires, compels, forces millions of American people to patronize the trusts. God knows we are largely at the mercy of the trusts anyway, but let us frame a law which will stimulate the manufacture of these boxes in every town in the land. There are men in al most every town who would be glad of the chance to make these boxes at prices less than those charged by the trusts. I wonder if the companies which make these boxes contributed anything to the great fund our Postmaster General rais ed the last campaign as chairman of the Republican National Committee? They certainly should have contributed to that fund, for they are allowed to charge a profit of 100, 200, and even 300 per cent, for goods manufactured by them and which the people are forced to use. In conclusion, I say, Mr. Chairman, if the people of this country who nse the rural free delivery service are not alio wed to have their own boxes made, then the Government should at least see to it that they get their trust-made boxes at act ual cost. I have introduced a bill now pending before the Committee on the Postoffice and Post Roads which requires the Postmaster General to buy these boxes from the lowest bidder and then furnish them to the people through the post offices of the country at actual cost. I do not know why some action is not taken to prevent the trusts from extort ing money from our constituents. I sup pose my bill will sleep the eternal sleep of nearly all antitrust bills introduced since I have been a member of this body; but let me tell you, the people are restless un der this great injustice, and the day is not far distant when you will hear from them. This unjust requirement of the Department is one reason why their ser vice is not patronized by many of the people. Thev cannot understand why they are not allowed to manufacture their own boxes. They know they are forced to Dav more than the boxes are worth, and rather than submit to flag rant wrong many of them refuse to buy boxes. Gentlemen, this is an important mat ter. Thousands, it is true, have already paid tribute to the trusts by purchasing boxes, but there are thousands who have not, and in the name of ordinary decency, I sav.let us emancipate our constituents in this matter, at least, as far as possiuie from the domination of monopoly.

A shift in some of the other committees will give Senator Sim mous'a place on the committee on commerce, Senator Clay, of Georgia, who now is on that committee, go ing on the appropriation committee. This will likewise leave a vacancy on the public buildings committee, upon which Mr. Simmons is, and Senator Overman will be appointed to this vacancy. Senator Simmons was given to un derstand that he could choose be tween the committee on commerce aud the committee on finance, which is regarded as the biggest committee of the senate. He recognized that the finance committee was, in one sense, the larger committee, but he decided, in view of the general inter est of the State in rivers and harbors and especially on account of the in- and waterways scheme that will come before that committee, that he could be of more service to the State on the committee on commerce than on the finance committee. Senator Etausom chose this committee in preference to all others when he was n the senate and was a member of it until he left the senate. Will Cure Consumption. A. A.

People of an older generation tell us that the nation's birthday was in bygone years generally celebrated in North Carolina with public meetings at which the people came together original fourth of July upon which a new nation was born. But of more recent years this cus tom has for some reason fallen into disuse, and now in many parts of the State the day is allowed to pass al most if not quite unnoticed. To this general rule Guilford county furnishes a notable exception. The patriotic efforts of the late Judge Schenck and a number of gentlemen associated with him rescued the battlefield of Guilford court house from oblivion, and for a number of years the people of the county have, on each fourth of July, upon this historic spot held a celebration in honor of the .day. Other places scattered throughout the State also hold similar meetings, i but the custom is by no means gen eral. But it should be general it should be universal. There is not a amletin North Carolina that should not on this greatest of all American holidays pay a loving tribute to the men who so bravely battled to give us the heritage of liberty. Not only do we owe it to the illus trious dead, but by thus coming to gether we would do ourselves a sub stantial service. When North Carolinians come to gether it is generally on an occasion that appeals to only a portion oi eur population, or for a purpose that actually arrays our citizens against one another. Such meetings are, perhaps, neces- . . m . 1 Y 1 t sary, but the iourtu oi duiy is more than any other day in the year a time and an occasion when all North Carolinians can and should meet as brothers, come to know better and by knowing better to better appreci ate the glories of American citizen ship, and learn also to better know and better appreciate one auomer.

Finds Cobalt Abundant Here. Mr. Edison, the Wizard of jhe Electrical World, After Success ful Search Finds Rare Mineral al in Eour Counties in North Carolina Goes to Tennessee. Correspondence Charlotte Observer. Asheville, June 10th. Thomas . Edison, the wizard of the electrical world, has ended his automobile trip through Western North Carolina in search of cobalt and has gone to Nashville, Tenn. Mr. Edison ended his trip through WTestern North Car olina at Webster, Jackson county, Thursday afternoon. Saturday the great electrical expert and his com panions went to Sylvaand from that place to Asheville by train. The au tomobiles were left at Sylva. They will be shipped to Nashville and Mr. Edison expects to continue his search for the valuable mineral. He said while here that his trip through North Carolina had been most successful and that he is satis fied cobalt is to be found in such large quantities as to enable him to reduce the cost of city traffic 55 per cent, aud cut the weight of storage batteries just half in two. Mr. Edison found cobalt in Gaston, Jackson, Lincoln and Cleveland counties. He said that in" Jackson county there is a large quantity of it and that, from assays of tlie mineral found in both Jackson and other counties, the quality was just what he expected. During his investiga tion Mr. Edison was accompanied by two experts on mineral and when a track of cobalt was found Mr. Edi son would stop and an assay of the mineral would be made. Mr. Edison stated that he had left forces of men in the four counties in North Carolina and that a thor ough investigation of the cobalt beds would be made. "These men will re port to me," said he "aud I may re turn to North Carolina during the summer to further investigate my discoveries." He said that he is con fident the discoveries already made would enable him to at once start on the work of new vehicles propelled by cobalt batteries. Mr. Edison said that he believed the discovery of co balt in the South would mean addi tional prosperity for this section of the country. Cobalt has already been found in Kentucky, Tennessee, Geor nbw has forces of men in thbse"States prospecting and examining the min eral deposits already found. He saj's that there is a streak of cobalt run ning from a point near Nashville into this State and that some of the rich est beds were found in North Caro lina. Stimulation Without Irritation.

Statesville Landmark. , Speaking of the senators who have and have not made some reputation in the rate bill discussion in the sen ate, Charity and Children says: "Overman made a capital record, and his amendment was conceded to be one of the most sensible that was offered. Indeed, in the windup of this titanic struggle lew of the senators larea neiier than Senator Overman." The truth is. Senator Overman has made a fine reputation in the senate. Again and again he has put his im press on measures of importance be fore that body. He has made a record of which his people are justly Eroud one which reflects credit on im and them. Time to Advertise is All the Time. Southern Publisher. Much has been said about the best ti.ue to advertise, and it has been re garded as a sort of loss of energy to carry x on an energetic advertising campaign during the hot summer months. -This has all changed, how ever, and only the inexperienced ad vertiser bothers himself or anyone else about the time to advertise, for the experienced advertiser, regardless of what his line may be, is fully aware of th fact that the'time to advertise U all the time. That tins is thor oughly appreciated by the leading concerns of the country is proved by the expensive summer campaigns which they carry out. Of course ad vertising in the summer time should be different from that of the winter, but there should be no let up what ever in the advertising. Some ieople put forth the argument that the sum mer months are dull, but if these mis guided souls will a6k the man who has advertised they will find that he isn't at all in doldrums over the con dition of trade, and the difference is the result of his advertising, if one time is better than another to adver tise, it is during the so-called "dull months," made so partly by the lack of advertising. An Alarming Situation frequently results from neglect of clogged bowels and torpid liver, until constipation becomes chronic. This condition is unknown to those who use Dr. King's New Life Pills; the best and gentlest regulators of Stomach and Bowels. Guaranteed by Melville Dorsey, Druggist.

While it is not to be taken with seriousness, the following from the Statesville Landmark is a fine hit, and is interesting reading: It is the custom for corporations and various associations of business and professional men to secure legis lation to advance their own interests. At a meeting of the State Medical Society in Charlotte last week the de sirability of certain legislation was suggested, and some of the doctors said, and truly, that the way to get it was to go to work for it; that if the State Medical Society would exert its influence properly it could control the politicians and secure whatever it wanted, or words to that effect. This is preliminary to saying that the newspapers, which furnish all the publicity and do most of the work for the schemes of other folks, not only interests, Dut are frequently made to suffer by adverse legislation. It is time to be up and doing, brethren beloved. The newspapers can, if they will, control all the politicians and legislatures and everything else. We know that at least one newspaper man will be in the next legislature, Mr. John M. Julian, of the Salisbury Post, and the Landmark now moves that he be instructed to devote him self to securing legislation for the newspapers. To begin with we sug gest that he have a law passed mak ing the non-payment of newspaper bills subscription and advertising account? a felony. After passing a few such mild measures as this he might see his way clear to ask for a more drastic measureMsuch as com pelling every family to take at least one newspaper, etc. We may think of some other things later, but these will do to begin on. If the Land mark's motion is passed we will move to add as a penalty that in case Colonel Julian fails to secure the passage of these and similar meas ures, that he be expelled from the North Carolina Press Association. We know it will be only necessary to suggest this to cause the colonel to get a "hump on himself." He never would incur that penalty. I'.b. e had almost overlooked the most im portant measure that should be en acted into law. Every newspaper should be granted (free, of course) a franchise to do business in certain territory, the number of papers to be limited in towns and counties accord ing to population; newspapers not having a franchise not being allowed to circulate in another's territory. With this arrangement and every family compelled to take a newspaper and pay for it, we are constrained to believe that the business would pick up a little. Superiority Proves Itself.

Agricultural Keononiist. A simple method of finding out the aire of an ejrg is by means of the air tpace which is fcituated toward the broad end of the shell. If tlie egg is held up between the bands before a light in a dark room the air space can be easily discerned, and by its size the age can be deter mined. In a perfectly fresh egg the air space is very small, but as age in creases it extends until when the egg is three weeks obi the air space occu pies about a sixth of the entire eon- tents. With practice the age can be told to within twenty-four hours.
