Blind Tigers Chased. In the t last few month?, the blind tigers have been getting in much sly work. The Hickory officers have been doing all they can to trail them up and run them down. And when our offi cers fail to land the game, they are certainly sly, and not so blind aftt r all. Durii g this time many have been arrested for drinking and sailing. On Monday morning last, Mr. Hill Hahn was up be fore the Recorder to answer five indictments, charging him with selling liquor, on Saturday, 11th, the last day the carnival was here. Mr. C. L. Whitener represent ed Mr. Hahn and R. R. Cline the City and State. The evidence through all the cases—to say the least—showel that Ilahn was about, handling, delivering and giving away liquor, from 10 •o'clock in the morning, till about that time at night. One of the indictments was for selling to a minor. The trouble only was. to prove the actual sale, which seemed evident. But after hearing all the evi dence —which Hahn did not go on the stand to deny, or put any one else on to deny —the Record er found him guilty in four of the five cases, and placed the fine at §5O each, $209 in all. Fail ing to pay, or give bond for it, or even to appeal, he was placed in the boose to await final action. To Avoid Colds. TNHillions of people suffer every -year ifrom colds, sore throat, and catarrfi, simply because they lack the knowledge or the gump tion to have their homes proper ly heated. Too much heat is worse than 'to little. It saps vitality from the body and makes it sensitive to changes. Different degrees 'of warmth in different rooms, or an different Darts of the same Toom. cause sudden changes in .skin temperature as one moves -about the house, and gives rise j to troublesome colds. Tempera ture that varies from hour to hour—sometimes hot and some times cold—has the same dan gerous effect. Strange to say, it costs le3s to warm a house properly and safe ly than it does to warm it irreg ularly, insufficiently, dangerous ; ly. This has been proven over rand over. Yet most of the poor • heating systems are installed •with the idea of saving money. The trouble is in the choice of tfoe plant. Steasa or hot water makes by far the a»ost efficient heating medium. And*the Model Heat ing System seems to be the most regular in its delivery of heat, :and the most saving of coal. Its economy begins with-the thor ough combustion of coal—getting all the heat out of it. Then, by a unique plan of internal circula tion, it heats water very rapidly and carries, it (or steam in a steam system) to all radiators with perfect regularity and with practically no loss. The makers state that thi3 sys tem will save from a third to a half of the ordinary coal con sumption, because it thoroughly utilizes the coal. This claim is backed by letters from many peo ple throughout the country who find the Model Heating System not only economical, but so reg ular and able that it banishes al most entirely that fall, winter ; and spring bugaboo—colds. Why We Are Stronger. l' The old Greeks and Romans were rgreat admirers of health and strength; (their pictures and statuary made the 'muscles of the men stand out like cords. As a matter of fact we have ath letes and strong men—men fed on iflne strength making food such as Quaker Oats»—that would win in any contest with the old Roman or Greek champions. 2 It's a matter of food. The finest food for making strength of bone, muscle and nerve is fine oatmeal. Quaker Oats is the best because it is pure, no (husks or stems or black specks. Farm iers' wives are finding that by feeding the farm hands plentifully on Quaker Oats they get the best results in work and economy. If you live in a hot cli mate buy Quaker Oats in hermetically tsealed tins. It keeps sweet and fresh.
