WATCH WHAT YOU SPEND And Put Y our Savings in the Bank You Can Cut Down Your Expenses If you try—a little less for this luxury--a few cents less for that—and you have the beginning of a fortune, if you put what you save in the bank. All the time it is accumulating you are getting nearer to independence and to the goal of that ambition, for all things are easy when you have money. Saving money is like planting your garden. When you plant money in the bank you expect it to bring you a harvest of profit and pleasure, same as your garden. And like the produce of your garden it grows best with careful attention, till it becomes a harvest, a fortune. NOW is planting time. Think it over. It's Never Too Late to Begin Saving . . .. /. - ... _ Many people commence a bank account when they reach the evening of life. It is never too late to save.

He said in part *hat the official report "put Co. A. in the excellent class in regard to effi ciency, drill and marksmanship, sta ting that your company led the State in tield-firiDg, which is considered the highest test of marksmanship." Capt. A. T. Daugherty, of the Bth U. S. Infantry, who for four years has been inspecting the N. C. militia, is exceedingly fond of the Hickory com ply. As the troops were breaking camp he sent his baggage up to Co v A., and rode with our men in their car. The men prize above every thing the following letter he wrote to Capt. 1 yerly, dated Aug. 1: Dear Captain:- Let me congratu late you on the fine work cf yo i com pany at the camp last month. I have Put them in my reports to the War Dept. in the excellent class. in the field-firing, which I regard as '•"• e graduation examination of a com pany of inlantiy, you lead your regi- 1 n-ent and the State.

Hoey will make the address at the Confederate vet- Jians reunion at Newton Aug. lOi Children of I. 0. 0. F. Orphanage. Last Friday night a class of thirteen children from the Odd Fellows' Orphan age at Goldsborc gave aw eniertainment at the Academy of Music. Those who were delighted with the entertainment g ren by these children last year an ticipated a treat and were not disap pointed. The music was unusually good, the elocution excellent. Perhaps the sweetest song was "Gome Where the Blue Bells Ring," by the class, and the recitations most enjoyed were "Doctors' Bills" and "Mr Bodkins and Widow Simpkin«." As the manager of the party, Mr. Ed word M. Davis, stated, the most significant thing about the entertain ment was the picture it gave of what the Odd Fellows are doing for the Odd Fellow's orphan. It should be stated that, at the Goldsboro Orphanage, the children are given a full course iu grammar and high schcol grades, be sides being taught the manual trades that will ensure them a living When they go out into the wt rid of manual industry. The building tinues, printing, farming, dairying, both with modern methods, in all these the boys receive training, while the girls are taught all that belongs to the makiag of a sanitary home, together with business courses and teacher training work. Beginning with two children and twenty act es of land, the Odd Fellows now have one hundred and seventy-six children iu the home, with an equipment remark able for the twenty years since the foundation of the Home. These tours through the State are an important part of th > work, adding much to the annual income. The orphan child appeals to all classes, every creed, and it is a privilege to be allowed to aid them. Marshall the Right Stuff. Statesville L,andmar«c. The more one hears of Gov. Marshall, the Democratic nomi nee for Vice President, the stronger is the evidence that he is the right sort. In an inter view this week the Governor said he had declined an offer of four of his friends to make up a fund to pay his personal expenses in his campaign. Instead he said that he had arranged with a bank to borrow about $5,000 to pay for his speaking tours and incidental items. The Governor asserted that he never had been under obligations to anybody for campaign funds, and that now was not the time to begin. Good for Marshall! A Colord Man's Fiendish Crime. Joe Parker, colored, was held by Recorder Yount without bail Tuesday morning on a horrible charge —criminal assault upon a little 12-year old colored girl, Ida Sudderth. The girl's mother went away, and left the girl at Parkers' house. At midnight he overpowered her, and when she was able to get away from him, she ran to the home of Ida Knox, who cared for her. Dr. Henry Abernethy found her in a pitiable con dition. Judge Clark Wants to Cut Down Campaign Expenses. Statesville Landmark. V Correspondence between Judge Clark, Gov. Kitchin and Senator Simmons as to campaign expenses has been made public. Judge Clark wrote Gov. Kitchin and Senetor Simmors suggesting that they unite in printing the tickets for the senatorial primary, the names of the three candi dates to be printed on one ballot, the voter to check the name of his choice; that these tickets be sent out with the regular tickets and distributed by party mana gers, which would mean a con siderable saving as against separate printing and distribu tion. It also suggested that they unite in asking their friends to serve as judges at the sena torial primarv without pay, as to Day three men in each township in the State would involve an enormous expense. Gov. Kitchin accepted Judge Clark's proposition but Senator Simmons referred the whole matter to Mr. Rogers, his cam paign manager. The latter has not announced his dicision. GREAT MASS OF PROOF Reports of 30 000 Cases of Kid ney Troubl Some of Them Hickory Cases. Each of some 6,000 newspapers of the United States is publishing from week to week names of people in its particular neighborhood, who h*ve used and recomended Doan's Kidney •Pills for kidney backache, weak kid neys, bladder troubles .and urinary disorders. This mass of proof includes over 30,000 testimonials. Hickory is no exception. Here is one of the Hickory cases. Mrs. Fannie Probst, Twelth st. and Second ave., Hickory, N. C., says: "Judging from my experience with Doan's Kidney Pills, I do not hesitate to confirm the public testimonial I gave some time ago recommending them. I suffered a great deal from nervous and dizzy spells and my head and back. The kidney action was irregular. I did not sleep well at night and arose in the morning tired. 1 pro cured Doan's Kidney Pills at Moser &. Lutz's Drug Store and used them. They made me strong and well." For sale by all dealers.

Hemphill, who while edit tor of the Charlotte Observer violently opposed Woodrow Wilson's nomination for the presidency, appears to have come round to Wilson. Writing in the New York Times he says "there is only one really progres sive candidate for president in the field, and his name is Wood row Wilson. Nobody seriouslyre gards Mr. Roosevelt as anything but—Mr. Roosevelt; a mere symptom of the times." Con tinuing he says: "The people are progressive— rather too progressive for their own good, it may be —but they are progressing toward the true progressive camp this time, and are looking to Wilson and not to Roosevelt, because, as they see it, tnere is something really tangible, something understand able. in what Wilson has said and in what Wilson's party has done, wliereas they have had nothing from Roosevelt but mixed and uncertain and im practicable declarations, 'sub ject to change without notice.' " Ivey Dots. West Hickory, Aug. 3—Miss Ola Lawter, from Cliff Side and Mrs. Pearline Sparks, from Caro leen, were at the Ivey Mill several days last week visiting their sister Mrs. G. W. Branch. While they were here they en joyed several automobile rides with their sister, visiting Brook ford and other places, returning home on Saturday. Flying Men Fall victims to stomach, liver and kidney troubles just like other people, with like results in loss of appetite, back ache, nervousness, headache, and tired, listless, run-down feeling. But there's no need to feel like that as T. D. Peebles, Henry, Tenh., proved. 4 'Six bottles of Electric Bitters," he writes, "did more to give me new strength and good appetite than all other stomach remedies I used." So they help everybody. Its folly to suf fer when this great remedy will help you from the first dose. Only 50 cents at C. M. Shuford, Moser & Lutz and Grimes Drug Co.
