We are glad to see the farm ers of Catawba County awaken ing to a realization of the bene fits to|be derived from a Rural Building and Loan Association. The cities and towns have had the benefit of these associations for years, but this is the first at tempt to organize a Rural Credit Association in North Carolina, and it speaks well for the pro gressivenes3 of Catawba and ad joining, counties that they should introduce this system in this State. The plan of this ..-association is along the lines of the -Rural Credit Systems that have been in practical operation in Euro pean countries, and a commis sion was appointed last summer to inspect this system, and this Association is the result of this work, as it was found to be very satisfactory wherever tried. A wise selection of officers for this Association was made, as they are among the best business men of Hickory, and some of the very best and most progressive farmers of the county are among the number. Mr. Lutz the pres ident, is a prominent farmer, and owner of a large dairy farm, and is an all around good busi ness man. The election of Mr. G. R. Wootten as secretary and treasurer was a wise decision as he has had many years experi ence as sesretarv and treasurer of Building and* Loan., Associa tions of the State, as wfell as of the one in Hickory, and thor oughly understands the business in all its details. The suit that will be brought before the Supreme Court of the United States in which the Stats of Virginia sues an individual will be quite unique, as it is one of the few instances where a State has sued a citizen in Supreme Court. -•> ? i>, v The will of Martha Washing ton, wife of the first president of the United States, was the richest womanipthis sec tion ofthe country, was stolen from the record book-of .-Fair fax County, Va., during the war between the States, and for more than fifty years the people of that county have searched for this will, which they prized very highly as a relic. Not long ago some one saw this will among the collection of official records of J. Pierpont Morgan,. and noti fied a citizen of .Fairfax County. Thev made an leffort. to' have the document returned to them, but the elder, J. P. Morgan said, that the will of Martha Wash ington was contraband oi war. and he had a right to keep it 1 . After the death of J. P. Mor gan, Sr.,- the of the American Revolution undertook to get the will from his son. Mr. Morgan positively refuses to give it up, but says he will have the will photographed, and send them a copy of it, Following his refusal to give up this will State Senator Thorn ton will introduce a resolution when the Legislature of Vir ginia meets, authorizing tne At torney-General of that State to institute suit against Mr, Mor gan in the United States -Su preme Court for the recovery 01 this will. This case will be foK lowed with interest. It is strange that Mr. Morgan should want to keep this wiil knowing the facts in the case as he does, especially as he has re turned to France and other for eign countries valuable papers that had been stolen from of ficial records and sold to his father. The State of Virginia prizes this will so highly that no amount of raOney could have purchased it from them, and as money is no object to Mr. Mor gan it seems pitiful that it wiii have to be forced from him.

What Can Be Done About It? We read a lot of medical literature that only entertains, bnt does not in struct. In this strenuous period, when life is put to such a severe strain, we need light and facts how to prevent disease more than talk that entertains. Bo yon know that the clerk and the shop girl, the merchant and the pro fessional man, confined to sedentary work, are daily creating those conditions that conduoe to colds? x Hentel fatigue, worry, heavy strain, nervousness resulting from desk or store work are the easiest means for the development of colds. The average life of a clergyman is less than that of a farmer—cause, sedentary work. Sedentary life, especially where it means the consumption of brain tteue, often leads to over-eating; there is no more common cause of oolds than over eating. When the digestive organs are weighed down with an excess of food, the liver and kidneys and other important vital organs are overworked, vitality is lower and there is less resistance; slight exposure, which under ordinary conditions causes no harm, results in a bad cold. . , To relieve a cold, a good expectorant or cough remedy such as PXRUVA should be conveniently at hand to be taken at the very first attack of the cold. But what can be done to stop the frequency of colds to such people that are oonflned to sedentary work? Start with a cold water towel bath, walk to your place of business or de vote an hour of each day to outdoor life, take a dose of PERTJHA before each meal to tone up your system, eat moderately, retire early and sleep in a room full of fresh air. Mr. L. A Eichardson, a substantial druggist from Marine, Illinois, com menting on the merits of proprietary medicines, writes as follows: " I have been engaged in the retail drug businesshere for the past forty years. During this time I have seen many patent medicines come into use, flourish for one or two years and then gradually disappear. There are very few of these remediesthat possess enough real merit to insure them long lifo. Peruna has always been a good seller with us, with a marked increase from year to year. The change in the formula some yean ago, by the addition of the slightly laxative properties, has made it a reliable remedy for oonstipation and for colds. I take pleasure in urging my brother druggkta to rooomnsttd it for these two ailments." Those who wish to begin the oold water towel bath should have a copy of the Ills of Lifo.
