The man's wife was at home dying oi consumption, and the note left for her said: "pear Paby, I will not bother you any more." lie was a dope and whiskey fiend, and is it too much charity to say that the poor wretch must have already lust his mind? Hut the woman who died with him, shall there be only words of .corn for her? The world gener ally bestows its sympathy upon the respectable, not upon the outcasts. This woman was but twenty-two and had not known a parents' care. She had once sought to desert her life of shame, but drifted back. Her age, her history as barely mentioned by the papers, and her death, all sug gest that there was in her heart deeper something than a choice and brazen life of shame. Perhaps it was a sorrow over a great wrong, perhaps a sense of shame too great to be borne. People do not kill themselves lightly. Only despair can drive to it, and this giant should hare no rightful place in the heart of one so young. Grover Cleveland is lending en couragement to the petition signers, a class of hefty folks who really need no encouragement He, John 0. Carlisle, and other prominent people are petitioning the governor of New York to pardon one Patrick, a lawyer entenced to be hanged for the mur der of an old man by the name of Rice, who left a will in Patrick' fa vor, on the ground that there is grave doubt of his guilt The alleged criminal baa been convicted in two or three trials and has exhausted very resource of the court, hence hi appeal to the governor.

He also appointed sixteen men of property and character to stay in the court room to serve when needed a talismen, thus assuring as good men wben talismen are called as when the regular jurors are serving. These two ideas are both good, the second of course being the most im portant The other would be a good ou for this county if ths oourt room here were such that lbs audience could hear when they were seated. Salisbury is now doing t million dollar liquor busrbea a year. The revenue agnnt who said that one man in every ten in North Carolina either drank whiskey or used some substi tute, must have been thinking of this when he made his remarka. Still be didn't teU the truth. tion has gone beyond the ability of production. At the prices of cotton goods spinners could have easily paid the farmers 12 cents for every pound of American cotton emwn this year If we should be able to hold back two million bales for 15 cents the spinners would still get the crop at an average price under 12 cent a pound. Hut little cotton remains in the hand of the producers and local holder. If those who have cotton will hold it firmly they will be well rewarded later on when the whole world realizes the shortness of the crop and the market responds to the actual conditions brought about by the legitimate laws of supply and de mand. To the farmers. Southern press and the business interests of the South generally, I extend here with my best wishes for a happy and prosperous new year. Yours truly, IIakvii Jordan, Pre.

Every Two Minutes Physicians tell us that all the blood in a healthy human body passes through the heart once in every two minutes. If this action be comes irregular the whole body suffers. Poor health follows poor blood ; Scott's Emulsion makes the blood pure. One reason why SCOTT'S EMULSION is such a great aid is because it passes so quickly into the blood. It is partly di gested before it enters the stomach ; a double advan tage in this. Less work for the stomach; quicker snd more direct benefits. To get the greatest amount of good with the least pos sible effort is the desire of everyone in poor health. Scott's Emulsion does just that.
