| SOCIETY J Wednesday, the 3rd, the Hick ory Took Club held the tw.-Ifch meeting of the tenth stries with Mrs. H. Geitner. This meeting with the trip out is always an event to which the Club looks forward every year. ''A I'hread of Gold" by Benson, s >n of the Archbishop of Canterbury was the special topic of interest. Pic tures of famous English scenes connected with the book were given as scuvenirs of the even-j ing. The place-cards ih the din ing-room were decorated with violets pa' n ted by the hostess and had called thereon a violet, poem. A delightful evening was passed with all present except Miss Schenck, the President, and Mrs. Philo Hall who were detained by sickness. Mrs. N. E. Aull entertained tie Travellers' Club Thursday, | the 4th, a large number being p esent. Quotations from "Our Mutual Friend,' introduced the h jur followed, by an article by Mrs. L. R. Whitener on "What remains of Dickens' London." Mrs. Royster read a selection from David Copperfield after which were very interesting cussions of current events. .. The subject for next winter's study was discussed and the choice made was "Ireland." Dainty refreshments were served before tle adjournment of a pleasant evening. Thursday afternoon, the 4th, Mrs. Marvin Sherrill entertain ed her little Eridge Club two , tables. Mrs. W. A. Clinard won the prize. The others present were Mesdames Chas. Menzies, Mrs. A. A. Shuford, Jr., Walter ; Martin; Misses Julia Wheeler, Essie and Rose Shuford. i Mrs. E. B. Menzies entertain- i ed five tables of Bridge Friday . afternoon, the sth. Quantities ] of lilacs and violets adorned this beautiful home. Miss Amy ] Wheeler won the prize and Mrs. i A. A. Shuford, Jr., the consola- ] tion. Refreshments, dainty and appetizing, were served before ' leaving. 5 • Mrs. W. G. Fox was hostess i to the Round Dozen Book Club • on April 3rd, with a large atten- i dance of the members, and Miss Rainey a visitor. The usual ex change of opinions on books read since the last meeting was fol- i lowed by a vocal duet, ' 'Under the Beautiful Stars',' by Mes dames Murphy and Bost. The hostess' special book is "Conis ton," by a number of the mem bers considered the best of the series. Mrs. Huf ham gave a de lightful sketch of the author's life, and told of some: of his oth er works. After adjournment, dainty refreshments —salad, sand wiches, pickles, coffee and can dies were served. The club was rejoiced to have Mrs.- J. W. El liott at this meeting after a long absence on account of sickness. Little Miss Mary Edna Hufham and Master W. G. Fox, Jr., were also a centre of attraction after adjournment. Mr. Delmas' theory of defense seems to be that Thaw was fool ish to get into the trouble when he did, but is smart enough to get out of it now. The concert Thursday night for the benefit of the Library passed off very successfully—as was fitting in such a worthy cause. Miss Ramsey, Mrs. R. B. Hutton and Miss Huffman played beautiful piano solos and th Mandolin Duets of Miss Sigmon and Mrs. Hutton were greatly enjoyed. The trios of female voices gave much pleasure, es pecially the one with Mr. Patter son's violin obligate. The_ Sol dier's Chorus from Faust was very fine, Mrs. J. H. Shuford sang delightfully. The Oakview Orchestra from Lenoir College contributed three fine numbers for the patriotic object. | .

We can never lose a crop until we have it; but to miss one we usually receive from the Giver of all good,causes a feeling like that of loss. A number of Conover people attended the closing exercises of St. Timothy graded school on April bfth. A good crowd of people was there, and all seem ed to enjoy the occasion. Su perintendent Mebane ar.d his lit tle daughter, Margaret, were present. .He made a speech of encouragement of some length. The recitations and dialogues were rendered in a manner cred itable to the school. Mr. Robert Holler with a fine graphophone added greatly to the pleasure of the day. Rev. F. K. Roof, Prof. J. S.

About the only thing that wil low induce the President to run 1 vill be the intimation that his " 'eet were too cold for a race with Vlr. Bryan.

It is ISO times as strong as the Nat- Ural water, and one 18 oz. bottle of it equals 25 gallons. Only a teaspoon ful is necessary for a dose. Its equal cannot be found in the : treatment oI Indigestion, Rheumatism, j Catarrh, Kidney and Bladder Eroubles, j Female Complaints, Malaria, Nervous | ness, Stomach and Bowel Disorders, Piles, Inactive Liver, Scrofula and oth er Blood and Skin Diseases. This water is simply a Natural treatment for Chronic Diseases, and is j by no means a patent madicine. By its use you can be cured in your own home, at the cost of 5c per day even better than vour rifch neighbor who spends several hundred -dollars, and; loses several months time by going to the Springs. We do not want your money unless we can do you good. Read what it has done for others. . TESTIMONIALS I think your Iron and Alum Water a fine tonic, also splendid for inactive Kidneys and Indigestion. W. A. SCOTT, Chief of Police, Greensboro, N. C. I have recently prescribed your Con centrated Iron and Alum Water for a lady who was the. subiect of a very prostrated case of Typhoid Fever dur ing the past sumrae. She derived great benefit from the water, and has continued to take it. I can endorse it as an excellent tonic, particularly in Nervous and Neurasthenic females DR. HENRY W. LEWIS, Member N. C. Board of Health, Jackson, N. C. About six months ago I had an at tack of chills and fever, having a chill nearly every day for thirty or thirty five days. I commenced using your Con centrated Iron and Alum Water, and alter I commenced using'it I only had one more chill, and was completely cured at once. L soon regained my appetite, weight and strength. I con sider it the best medicine I ever Used, ! and shall continue its use when sick. JAS. KIRKPATRICK, [ " j Burlington, N. C. I do not hesitate to Piedmont-Bedford Concentrated Iron and Alum Water, which I have used in ' my practice several years with fine re t suits. Especially do I recomment it > for diseases'peculiar to females, and it is with pleasure I add my testimony to such valuable medicine as I know this to be. 5 E. H. MURRELL, M. D., t Lynchburg, Va. I was an intense sufferer for some months with Indigestion, and could get no relief from the ordinary reme r dies. During the month of January I began the use of your Concentrated s Water, and one bottle has entirely re f lieved me. I can now digest any diet i and am entirely free from suffering.

ECHOLS CO., Lynchburg, Va. ij The Cngfatefol. 1 J There are those in nearly everj ' v town who are ungrateful totheii local paper for the courtesies I they receive. The paper is only '| a thing- to be used when they •' imva some private ends to be gained. They never think of giving any courtesy exdcpt when tney get some benefit and very often curse the paper, when it does not go to great trouble to look after some little matter that is only an advertisement of some kind of their business or personal interest. A pewspaper is a bus iness enterprise, yet it usually gives away more than any other business in a town. There are usually some business men who depend on the free advertising t can get from their local pa p 3r. to help them along. Often some merchant gets hundreds of dollars worth of such advertisirg i i a year and yet thinks it is un kind in the paper if it does not have a man on the spot to write up every detail that will benefit him. Such merchants think the paper is indebted to them for giving the paper an opportunity to get "news." The local paper has the same ideas of business that the merchant ha§. His stock in trade is the advertising in his columns. If he gives that away his source of income is gone. The paper has a friendship for the men who patronize it just as any other business does its patrons. The people who do not advertise are lust as anxious to get free advertising as any body, The truth is every body these days recognizes the benefit of adver tising and the man who scoffs at it is in no sense of the word ser iously to be taken.—Exchange. / i "A neighbor who carries scan dal to you will take a load away," observes the Baltimore Ameri can.

Opell, and now Harriman and others are said to be raising a fund of $5,000,000 to break down Mr. Roosevelt's influence. In i both instances the amounts nam ed seem ridiculously small!
