He Is Only a Printer. "He is only a printor." Such was the sneering remark ot a leader in a circle of aristocracy codfish qnali ty. Who was the earl of Stanhope I lie was only a printor. What was Pince Edward William and Prince Napoleon ? Proud to call them selves printers. Che czar of Iluesia, tho crown prince ot 1 ruseia and the duke of Pattenbcrg were printers, and the emperor of China worked n a private printing ollico almost every day. William Caxton, tho father of English liorature, was a practical printer. What were J. P. Morris, N. P. Willis, James Parker, Horace Greeley, Charles Dickens, James Buchanan, Simon Cameron, bchuylcr Colfax Printers all, and practical ones. Mark Twain, Amos J Cummings, Bret Ilarte, William Dean IJowells, Joel Chandler Har ris and Opio Itead were plain, practical printers, as wire Artcmus Ward, Petroleum V. Nasby and Sut Lovingood. Senator Plumb, of Kansas, and James J. Hogg, ex governor of Texas, were all printers and the leader of science and phi losophy in his day made it his boast that he was a "jour" printer. In fact, thousands of the most brilliant minds in this country are to be found in large cities and towns. It is nut every one that can be a printer brains are absolutely necessary. Century.

Ills naino is Alonzo Weed and he came to Amesville from California about a year ago. lie is 40 years of age, weighs 105 pounds and is but 4'J inches high. His election to the mayorality was the result of a joke, but now the good people of Amesville are of the unanimous opinion that the joke is on them. The village coun cil, clerk, marshal and other repre suntative citis tis have hied with the Governor sundry and serious charges against the midget. They recite that he is moutally incapable of performing the du'ics of his otliue, that he is wholly illiterate, an habitual drunkard, uuable to take care of his own property, is grosslv immoral and that, in short, he camo to the town a tr.it p or hobo and that he remains a tiamp or hobo to the present dy, notwithstanding hi t-lovation to the position of chief citizdn of the town. Upon receipt of tho shargos Gov- ernor Nash, in accordance with the provisions of tho municipal code, temporarily suspended Mayor Weed from otlice and began a hearing on the charges. If the charges are sustained by the evidence the town of Amesville will soon have a new hief executive and the midget mayor will bo obliged to look for another job. No Heart But Plenty of Nerve. There is one woman in New York who is either devoid of nerves alto gether or the possetsorof a nervou svsiem which is proof against shock of any kind. This woman is on trial at Monticello for tho murder of hr uaband. According to the teii- tnony of hor daughter, the murder- ees killed her buMmnd with a- lit'le compunction as if she had wrung a chicken's neck. After cutting up tho body and placing it in the kitch en stove to be reduced to ae'iee, the went to bed and slept until morning. hen the aros?, mixed flour for pan cakes and cooked the ctkes on the stove within which the remains of er husband were being incinerated. iter in the day she gathered up the ashes of hor murdered spouse, mixed them with corn meal and fed the compound to her chickens. A dep uty 6henll who testified at the trial stated that the woman told him, in rather amused sort of way, that she utilized the remains of her on fortunate husband as food for fowls, nd that she expressed herself as happy that he was gone. This is ot a romance It is a matter ot fact evidence in a murder trial in a civilized community. What Causes Pneumonia? Dr. Reynolds of Chicago claims that pneumonia is a highly conta gioos disease, the cause of which is micro organism in the sputa of those suffering from the malady and contracted by inhaling this germ ; therefore the sputa should be de stroyed, etc. All such talk might be set aside as bosh if it were not for the barm it is doing. So long as doctors can find the cause of any disease to re side in a micro organicra go long they can ignore the real conditions which produce them. It is not a micro organism that causes pneumonia or causes it to spread. It is improper clothing, damp, nnventilated surroundings, insuliicient food, intemperance, vice and excesses of various sorts.

Maj. Duf fy had been ill only since Sun day evening about 6:30 o'clock, when lie suffered a severe -attack of intestinal trouble, presumably the effect of some ice cream which he ate for dinner. Dr. Andrew II. Harriss, the family physician, was called immediate ly and remained at the bedside of the sick man during the night, but gradually he grew worse and Dr. W. J. II . Bellamy was called in yesterday. In the afternoon Dr. W. J. Love was also sum moned and though everything known to medical science was done by those three physicians for the jtatient, he passed away at the hour mentioned, remaining conscious almost to the ruinu'e Le was firmly in the grasp ot death.

Osborne's paper ..ml r. - T i- ti ...11 L on "iue oirenuous ljiio, wiiiuh was read before tho American Therapeutic Society at Washing ton, D. C, tho past week, led to tin) conclusion that Americans live at too fast a Dace. This was admitted by nearly all tho doctors present at the American Medical Congress, but nobody hud a remedy to suggest. Dr. Osborne said the strenuous ness of the life of tho average American business man has a tendency to incroaso card Lie. and arterial weaknesses, and that tilifitherruusefor the many break downs is the canstantly increas ing and reckless use oi coal tar products for tho relief of pain. "We hardly realize this daily tension and tho effect on our hearts unless wo analyze it," said Dr. Osborne, who comes from New Haven. "We rise on time in the morning, whether by an alarm clock or the call of a ser vant, or by habit, cat breakfast and read the pajcrs on time, a clock in every room and a watch frequently in our hand. We then, on time, meet ollico and outside engagements, college appoint ments, consultations, always and constantly carefully predicting the amount of time that will be required and timing our noxt en gagement by this division. "During the day we rush up long (lights of stairs or take ele vators that go up with a rush and stop with a plunge. If we drive, either horse or automobile, our hearts stop, jump and receive tho vasomotor contraction check, when, by the carelessness of pedestrians or bicyclists, we are suddenly anxious lest we do them an injury. If we are in a car or vehicle ruanuged by some one else we often receive the same real or needless shocks to our nervous systems and hearts. If we are ailing we slight nature s signal to relax and still keep up the pace. If we are actually sick, unless we are seriously ill we tightand wrestle with the disease, whatever it may be, instead of calmly giving up and allowing the disease to be temponiry mas ter of ceremonies. AfU;r the heart has been worn by the strain given it by the life of the American of great affairs it is useless to expect drugs to re store it. "The constant nervous shocks to which Americans subject themselves have the same effect as fast driving on a high-strung horse. Any owner or driver will tell you it is not the distance the horse is driven, but the speed at which he goes that does the in jury. "Americans could work longer hours without harming them selves half as much as they do in their comparatively short hours, which they spend in a terrific ef fort to accomplish everything their brains have been able to think of." "This describes the life of most of the men and women of our rapid age and country. Even the school children and I might say, the young children, see too much, do too much, are amused too much, receive too much, com pete in school too much, are taught too much, are awake too much for the welfare of their nervous system." Sale of Timber Lands. Judge H. B. Stevens has re cently completed the sale of a hundred thousand acres of tim ber land in Kabun county, Geor gia, to Moses Cone, of Greens boro, and W. W. Mill, of Raleigh. There are forty-one farmers who own this land in separate tracts and live on it Options on these lands were secured by McDade and Turpin and Judge Stevens, who is now in Kabun county, and is daily converting these options into deeds and paying out five to ten thousand dollars a day.

In North Carolina, which lias been in tho forefront of the Southern movement for better educational facilities, there was passed in VM a law permitting tho establishment of rural school libraries wherever tho patrons or friends of a free public school raised the sum of $10 for that puriMjse. The county board of education was authorized to add $10 to tho gift, and the State board of education $10 moro. The act provided that not moro than $.",000 should be expended for this purpose, and that the number of libraries should not excied six in any county . Within one year, according to Southern n,iucation, w .libraries were established in seventy-eight of the ninety-six counties, by a total State and county expenditure of $1U,()oO. ho successful was tho experiment that the legislature of 10OU appropriated $3, (XX) more for six additional libraries in each county, and added $2,500 for books for the libraries al ready established. Each library is conducted under rules and regulations proscribed by the State superintendent of public instruction. I be .North Carolina literary and Historical Society lias dono much to secure the pas sage of the laws. The resul's have more than justiGed the ex ix'nditure, and, in fact, the expo rimenthas attracted very consid erublo attention in other StaU-s, One small public school, that of Liocko township, for instance, has a school Utui of only four months. Yet during this period 50 books were read by the pa trons and pupils of the school. The peculiar value of the school library lies in the fact that it ed ucates the older generation us well as the younger. New York Evening Post. A law that woiks great injustice to the counties of North Carolina, or at least one that costs Guilford a 1 t of money, is that making it a oiisdemeanor to bent one's way on the train. The law in itself is proper enongh, Jor some deterrent ii needed for the protection of the railroads, but the complaint lies in the fact that justices, mayors, etc., are not given jurisdiction. A tramp is pulled from the train, fur instance, and taken before tho mayor. There is seldom any defence and the prisoner must bo sent on to the next term' of the criminal court. Of course he can give no bond and must go to jail and very often he is ktpt there waiting a hearing for two months or longer at the expense of the coun'y. l'y all means the law ahould be changed so as to give jurisdiction to justices and mayors. It is costing Guilford and of course m-iny other counties almg the main li'ie of reals a lot of rn mey with out any reason whatever. Green boro Ilecord.
