Speaking of tho effort to organize
a silver party in North Carolina, tho
Charlotte News says: "It is our
opinion that tbe organization of a
new silver party in North Carolina
would have but one effect. It would
weaken the silver cause by dividing
tho silver forces. It is tho very
thing tho enemies of silver would
liko to see done. It would give the
Republicans even a better chance
of carrying the State than they now
have. That would be its chief
effect."
Big gold and silver excitement
up at North Wilkesboro. Mr. J.
L. Whittington thinks bo bas found
a valuable gold vein. It bas been
thought for fifty years that there
was gold in that vjchjjty, asjtwas
found in branches, and Mr. Whit
tington scorns to have fonnd it at
last. The analysis shows about two
hundred and fifty dollars worth to
the ton of ore. He has about one
ton ready for shipping, and if it
proves to be valuable, be will work
tbe vein at once.

else to stay there for unless we

Kindj,
Winter is half over. People are
continuing to catch colds, and not

People are trying to get something
to cure these trouble, which are
almost inevitable at this time of the
year. It can mftdy bo said that
nine-tenths of tho people in the
United States hive a cold some
time during tho winter. There is
ono rornedy which will prevent
colds and coughs and cure them
with certainty when they are con
tracted. This remedy is Pe rn-na.
Taken with regularity during the
winter months, it will entirely pre
vent coughs, colds, la grippe, con
sumption, bronchitis or pneumonia.
It will also cure without failure
catarrh and recent ea.-es ot con
sumption, and olten in advanced
stages.
Everybody should have tho (14

diseases which is being sent free by
Tho Po-rn-na Drug Manufacturing

We do not mean a shake cf
the hands ; but a genuine mal
arial chill. Quinine Is the
best remedy for this. Yet
when the chills have ceased,
there remains a debilitated
system, with loss of appetite
and poor blood. For this
condition take 5c ot t ' s
Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil,
with Hypcphosphites. The
cod-liver oil Is a valuable food,
furnishing needed elements to
build up the tissues. It also
makes rich blood, bringing
back color to the checks.
TheHypophosphites Increases
the appetite, and gives vigor
and strength to the nervous
system.
