Pritcharil- Bright & Go. Durham, N. C. WSiQfrf^tHkrtSchaffDct feMan Center of British Industr/r Within two or three hours bj’’ rail and linked to the River Humher l>y a network of canals, live 12,000,000 to 15,000,000 people, mostly engaged in manufacturing and mining, and largely exporting their products to foreign lands and receiving from abroad the bulk of their raw material and food 3U))i)iles. Seed crushing, flour miilii.g, oil refining, and the mak ing of paintt? and other goods into vvhi«‘h lhe;ie oils etit^->-, are the special industries of Hull. lj]i!.^l;ind Stale Bread or Fres'.i Elrea'K Mobt peisons don’t like .jtale br.ad so well a.^ fresh, thougli uian> sider it Uit'ie digestible As ;i matter of fact, bread is ju.st as digesit- Ible as stale, if it be chewed as uuich. but its veiy softness is a temptatioa to chew it too liitle; htuee it is swal lowed without the admixture of enough saliva to dige^^t its starch. Stale bread, on the ovher hand, is dif ficult to swallow unless thoroug.hiy chewed. The difference between fresh and stale bread is merely a matter of water. In breaa as it comes from the oven the crust is dry and crisp ■ and the c>umb is moist and soft, be- I cause all the water is in the crumb. : As hours or days pass the crust ab- • sorbs water from the crumb and be comes soft, while the crumb becomes dry. A l'.)af can be made fresh jisjain by slightly iiiuisteiiing it and plai-ing it for a few minutes in a hot oven. The heat drives the water frons the ciuat back into the crumb. iSound Principal Taken from Judge Castier’a announ cement of his cai.didacy lor at toi no> general. “Wl.ile we assert a theoretical equal ily before the law, it is my observation that, as administered in our courts, the criminal law is comparatively im potent as Hgamst wealthy a.ui influ- ental offenders, »it the same time thai it is generally enforced with vii^i>r, and too frequently with ruinous haish- ness, as against the weak and humble. Upoti the one hand we are crowding our chaingangs with wayward youth from the lower ranks of sov-iety and thereby, in the na?ne of justice, con verting mere delinqu€iits into liardeiied { crimii.als; whereas, upon the other hand, the influential criminal is too often able to delay. b;itYle and fiii.illy defeat justice.” L. T. JOHNSTON THE ICE MAN Recognized the Burden. “No wonder them city people conv plain about beia’ all worn out with Ihelr social duties,” vouchsafed a prominent citizen of Wayoverbehind. "When I was down to New York I duni near unj'iuted my neck tryln’ to bow to everybody i met on the streets.”—Magazine of Fun. Who Makes Up the Suicides. Accordiog to Dr. Jacques Bertillon the French statistician, suicide is com monest among Uquor sellers, chimnej sweeps, butcherj, fruiterers and mu sicians. It is frequent among “came- lots,” shop assistants, cutlers, hair dressers, servants, costers, lawyers doctors and druggist. It Is rare amon^ the clergy, government offlrJals and men leading an actlye, open-air life. No. Six-Sixty-Six Thii ti a prescription prepared especially for MALARIA or CHILLS & FEVER. Five or six doses will break any case, and if taken then as a tonic the Fever will not return. It acts on the liver better than Calomel and does not gripe or sicken. 25c Subscribe to The Leader HOW WILL YOU SET YOUR TOBACCO THIS YEAR? Will YOU STICK TO THE OLO UBOmOUS, BACK BREAKING METHOD OF SETTING IT BY HAND WHEN THEBE IS AN EASIER WAY? By using a Masters Plant Setter you not only save lab or, time and prevent lame backs from stooping but you get your plants nature’s way—every plant is rooted by absorption. One man with a Masters plant setter can set, water and fertilize more plants than three men can set by by hand in (Tne day. Plants are set, watered and fertilized all in one operation. These setters may be used equally as well for setting out tomatoes, cabbage, cauliflower, sweet potato slips, etc. If you have never used one of these planters call and let us show you the principle of operation.

GREENSBOKO. N. C. The Nature Of The Beast Not only has the entire issue of one hundred million dollars of twenty-year six per cent, convertible bonds recent ly olfered for sale by the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad, been subscribed, but no sooner were the bonds plated on the market than they sold at advances raiigin^^ from two to three and .,011 e-ha If per cent. Shis is described as “the largest issue j of corporate securities ever placed in the United States,” and the success with which it was marketed does something more than bear convincing testimony to the soundness and sta bility of financial conditions in this country. It furnishes concrete and conclusive evidence of the confidence with which capital views the improved and rapidly improving business situa tion generally. It is Idle to expect, however, that it will have any effect in the way of silencing the howling of the republican calamity-shriekers. In proportion as grcund for it grows less their howlirig will gain in volume and vociferouness. It’s the nature of the beat.->Norfolk Pilot. “Dickensy*' Names. );Dickensy” names are to be discov ered in the most unlikely localities, as those whose travels take them to Bur gundy may have discovered. In Ma- con there is a Rue Dombey, which, apart from Its name, is worth explor ing for the sake of one or two fifteenth century timber houses with most quaintly carved fronts. And by a Strange conincidence, on the banks of the Saone, about seven miles out of Macon, there is a village called Boz. R. N. Cook, Sheriff C. P. Thompson, Merchant Swepsonville, N. C. W. I.

'I hing for Bilious Attack. “On account of my confinement in the printing office I have for years been a chronic sufferer from indigesti on and liver trouble. A few weeks ago I had an attack that was so severe that I was not able to go to the case for two days. Failing to get any re* lief from any other treatment, I took three of Chamberlain’s Tablets and the next day I felt like a new man,’* write.s H, C. Bailey, Editor Carolina News, Chapin, S. C. For sale by Mebane Drug Company. The Logic Of it^ (The Yale freshman year was prov ing very expensive to father, so father I decided to have a “heart to heart” talk with Johnny, home for the week end according to the New York Even ing Post. “Now, son,” said he gravely but af fectionately, “your mother and I are spending just as little as we possibly can. I get up in the morning at half past 6 and I work until after 5. But. son, the money just won’t go round at the rate that your expenses are run ning. Now, I ask you, as one man to another, what do you think we had better do?’' For a moment Johnny’s head was buried in thought—and then he rt- plled: “Well, father, I don’t see any way out but for you to work nights.” One Purpose of t.;fe. What do we live for if U is not tc make life less difficult for each other j^eorge Eliot.
