Catawba County Annual Farm ers Institutes, Newton Wed nesday July 31st, Hickory, Thursday, August 22nd 1997. The Annual Farmers Institute for Catawba County will be held at Newton, Wednesday, July 31st Hickory, Thursday, August 22nd 1907. There willl>e two or three speakers present from the State Department of Agriculture in ad dition to the local sneakers. These Institutes are for a free and in formal discussion of every-day farm problems and no farmer can attend and take part in these dis cussions without receiving more than enough benefit to pay for the time spent. No attempt will be made at this meeting to lay fast rules by which any man lpuld run his farm, but improv ed farming methods will be dis cussed and the reasons why these methods are better than many of those now practiced will be given. We are assured* that no speaker will recommend anything he has not himself done and that dezens of farmers in this yart of the State are not also doing at this time. Don't forget the date of this meeting, Newton, July 31 Hickory, August 22, 1907; and see that your neighbor knows o Bad Symptoms, The woman who has periodical head aches, backache, sees imaginary dark spots or specks floating or **»■•!'!g before her eyes, haygnawing distress or heavy full feeling Ift itomach, faint spells, drag- la lower abdominal or Pelvic regfcn. easily startled or exdted, IrregukTf or palnfal periods, with or with out relvic catarrh. is suffering from weaknlfaes that should have eWy attention.

Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription can do only good—never harm, ltd whole effect Is to strengthen, invigorate and regulate the whole female system and especially the pelvic organs. When these are de ranged In function or affected by disease, the stomach and other organs of digestion become sympathetically deranged, the nerves are weakened, and a long list of bad, unpleasant symptoms follow. Too much must not be expected of this "Fa vorite Prescription." It will not perform miracles: will not cure tumors—no med icine will. It will often prevent them, if taken in time, and thus the operating table and the surgeon's knife may be avoided.

Leroy N, Y. twU»»wgh ■n !■ Mmmoo Carrie Nation - Carrie Nation delivered two of her lectures in Wesleyan Metho dist church of Hickory last Fri day, July 26th. A fairly good sized audience greeted her at tbt first lecture, but at the second performance the crowd was small. Mrs. Nation is sixty-one yews old and is well preserved. Sqe baa an attractive face and impresses one most favorably. She told part of her history. She was born in the South and has been twice married. Her first husband died" a drunkard and she knows what it is to be a drunkard's wife and a drunk ard's widow. Her second husband sought and secured a divorce from her because she would not give up her work of smashing saloons. She claims to be called of God for this special work; that she has seen visions and that the prophet Isaiah had her in mind when uttering certain prophecies. She is a fanatic. Her first lec ture wis on the ideal woman and contained many wise suggestions for the young girls and mothers. She warned the young girls against tight lacing and her trib ute to mothethood was fine. At night she told why she smashed anp ho w she smashed. She was severe on coca-cola and ciga rettes as well as Hickory. She praised Hickory for the stand taken on the Prohibition ques tion. but said that we had some sneaks around here who were hauling the accursed stuff around in their buggies and selling it We do not know who had been telling Carrie tales, or whether she just jumped at that conclu sion. _ She praised Governor Glenn and said that she hoped the peo ple would send him to the Unit ed States' Senate: :that just such a man as be is was needed in Washington. The Republican and Democratic parties received respectful attention at her hands and the Chief Executive of the* Nation was not forgotten. Inci dentally it might be remarked that Mrs. Nation sells hatchets and a paper called the Hatchet and a copy of her life for fifty cents and that she does not for get to mention this fact in her addresses. We do not think that any town is the worse for having Mrs. Na tion visit it. She stands for vir tue, temperance and religion. She exalts virtue anc denounces vice. The? language used may seem severe in sortie cases, but: she is in dead earnest and her «oul is a fire with zeal for her cause. Money spent for her hatchet is better spent than money spent for cigarettes. CARRIE NATION'S SAYINGS. God made the skunk to smell, but he never intended that man should rival him in this respect Shame on you young girls who go to the hugging school. What would you think of the hen that would turn her. chicken over to the old rooster to raise. That is|whatsome of you women are doing* And there is the Masonic or- der. The last one of you are liars. 1 I have a great deal of respect for a dog becanse he will not smoke. No truly great nan was born for from a society girL You society girls are not fit to be* come mothers. Bull Durham and Duke's Mix tures are the appropriates em blems to place on some churches. J, H. .McLetiand and P. A. Hoyle, of Newton; was here Sat urday. Mr. Earl Colee went to Lin colnton Monday to see the ball game between Lincolnton and Lenoir. Mr. C. M. Sherrill and family, and Miss Hazel Elliott spent Sunday at the Springs. Dr. J. Coheii Morrison, of Reidsville, is in town for a few ;iw*sks.~" Advertising Scheme or Plan? The advertiser who orders out his announcements in July and August, 'under the impression that those are stagnant months in which he can safely retrench, is usually the one who advertis es by a-scheme insteud of a plan. Advertising by a scheme is choosing mediums haphazard,be ing moved chiefly by the elo quence of solicitors inbtead of placing business according to in formation secured by investiga tion. Advertising by a scheme, and then wondering where the results are. For an advertiser of this sort ever to see the utili ty of keeping up his publicity through the summer months, when sales are perhaps light, is like asking him to see through a millstone. The advertiser by a plan, how ever, is more than an advertiser. He is a distributor, and advertis ing of every sort means to him reaching so many people so many times a year in such-and-such mediums. He counts on win ning over a certain proportion each month, whether a national advertiser in a magazine or a lo cal one in newspapers, knows that his certain proportion of readers are going to be convert ed just as easily in July and Au gust as in November and De cember. He has his mind set, not on what one ad will produce, but the legitimate return of re sults due him month after month through cumulative effect. The retail piano men imagined until two or three years ago, that nobody wants to buy musical in struments in summer. So they stopped advertising in late spring and never really got under way again until the beginning of Christmas demand. Some broad minded piano men in one of the large cities, howeuer, tried the experiment of continuing adver tising until the beginning of rammer, talking pianos for the summer home. The results they pot were so surprising that they continued right into the summer itself to see what would happen, Hid, lo! it was proven that no such thing as a dull season ex isted in the trade. Half the piano retailers in the United States low follow this broad plan. Lock into New York dailies the hot test days in summer, and piano ids Will be found, together with :hose of piano players. The big general advertisers irhose goods are distributed in wery nook and corner of the sountry, and frequently over the vhole world; broad advertisers vhose distribution was complete rears ago, and who have long pven up "fliers" if they everin lulged in them—do you find hem ordering out their an louncements in the hot months? Seldom. Pears' soap is not nec essarily a summer specialty. Ifet the Pears ads are just as Dig in July and August as in the niddle of the winter. Elgin and [ngersoll watches, Marlin fire inns, the Prudential and Mutual Insurance companies, Bon Ami ind Sapolio, Waterman pens, the Pianola—such commodities as these are prominent in summer. None of them belongs distinc tively to summer, and some would seem to be unlikely in their appeal during dog days. But tney are advertised by a plan, and so successfully that there is no room what ever to question the judgment of the concerns that pay the space bills. They must be right. If the public will buy Pianolas and life insuranoe in summer, or it pays to lead up to fall selling for these commodities—if this is so, aren't there hundreds of other commodities, far more direct in their appeal, that might swell the magazine and newspaper pages daring the month3~"lvhen talcum powder and sunburn lo tions hold the center of the stage? The advertisefj- according to a scheme orders out his ad if a cloud passes over the face of the sun. The advertiser by apian, however— tfca distributor—know no seasons. He goes by the basic need* of humanity.—Print .er*' Ink.

We will live high un til the season is over. There was an ice cream sup per in the grove at the Methodist church for the benefit of the same, and quite a nice sum was realized and everybody had a good time that attended. Rev. Mr. moved into the John Hickman's house last week. We are glad to welcome Mr. Mossey in our little town. He has given us two good nights at the Academy. He is a fine musician, both instrumental and vocal. Its a wonder how a blind man can perform on the violin, piano and organ without- the aid of having the music to go by. The Rev. Mr. Sherwood has bought the house and lot where Prof. White lived and will move there soon. He is pastor of the Baptist church. » Prof. White will leave this week for Ramsaur where he has accepted a position as principal of the graded schools. We regret to lose him from among us. Shelby's Shows visited town last week and they had quite a lively time. One of the men got some b o:e and about the time he got the tents up it came up one of those unexpected thunder storms and blew it all down and it seems he and his lady had quite a lively time as a result of the booze and the blowing down of the tent. The gentleman in question resorted to Mayor Payne for a warrant charging the lady in question with assaulting him with a stick and being refused a warrant looked up Squire Starnes and procured a warrant for the lady and had her arrested and brought before him. Failing to to make out a case he was thrown in the cost. Payne Bros., are building a nice school house at Rhodhiss. Mrs. Tommy Shorrill, of-Le noir, is visiting Dr. A. D. Jones.
