A very wholesome step was taken In an ordinance adopted requiring aaJooDS to close at 9:30 p. m. One of the objectionable features of the saloon has been its character as a loafing and carousing place in which men's Uvea are shattered and their property lost This deplorable feature will find partial remedy in the ordinance limiting the hours when liquor may be old. In taking this step Kinston puts herself in line with other progressive municipalities where the principle of early closing works well. Another important stop taken by the aldermen was the removal of bogs and bog pens from the city limits. There Is no doubt of the fact that disease is -often propagated through the pig pen. The officials have gone to work to remove what unsanitary conditions there may be in our midst, and every citizen should give them full support in their efforts. THE ROAD TO PROSPERITY By RANDOLPH CtCCEMNCfMER. Prominent and Wealthy New Yarfc Lawyer MI8TAKE3 IN THE PHILIPPINES. The Literary Digest for j May 2nd contains some pointed remarks rela tive to our educational fafture in the ilillippines. We have failed miser ably in many of our undertakings in those distant islands, but.' in nothing more than in our educational expert tnents. The failure in this latter respect is a result of the fact that we have gone about the problem from a mistaken 3oint of view. We have attempted to 'make Americans out of Filipinos, by process of educational grind, and the attempt has proved a dismal fail we; just as failure always results when we attempt to educate one race into Mother. We can never make a white man out of negro by any conceivable process of education. Neither will a white wan develop into a negro, by any such process: he may become much worse than he negro, but there will remain racial distinction, if education, alone -ttengrta. change hjm, j ' -A year and a half ago we. sent a ship load of teachers across the Pacific to lie Philippines," They went there a "Jljjhthearted set, but soon, lost their lightness of heart, and have been com pel led to confess failure, simply be cause they didn't carry the Filipinos anything that they, as a people, needed, Speaking of the effort of the Ameri eao teacher to teach English a critic says: v:."';" In a few cities, where there are hosts of Americans, soldiers and citizens English is a living tongue; but for the great multitude or Filipinos it is prac tically a dead language, i "Why should a Filipino care to learn English? Not manv reasons are conceivable. In a few cities it might oeip many a boy to get employment, and in thee cities English can he suo- cussruny taugnt. Elsewhere it is Ira fiortant only for the governing class, affecting, as it does, their commercia and political interests. "But lor the Filipino peasantry there is no motive for learning English, and accordingly they will not and can not learn it. A new language can only some to them with a new life: school- ing can not give it to them. , Anotner critic noids mat in our policy of '.'colonialism" we have be- gun wrong in education as in every thing else. He says. , We can change, if we will, for it 1 mot altogether too late yet. But it 1 must be a complete change aud an .honest admission of error. To eda cate tne Filipinos as Filipinos, and not a Americans, is the ritrht ideal Let 10,000.000 Malays as such develop Along the lines of their native trenius and someday the world will rvioicethat mey bave been. Educate them through themselves and they will becomestrong, is their kinsmen the Japanese have aone, aaaing a new , star to tne con ; atellation of civilized races" '"' Racial characteristics may be lost "in the process of amalgamation of -races,' and a new species will then be produced unlike either of the origi nals In temperament, ': ;. 1 However, so long as people of dif ferent races are allowed te exist, the 4 act of this difference must be respected mad reckoned with. . Education, to be successful in ele vating any boy, girl, man, woman or race of people must be determined by environment, L , e., by the present conditions and future prospects and possibilities of the people to be edu cated. - : v , . Mr. C. C Baldwin, the representa Uve of the southern cotton mills in China, reports that since Manchuria has been under the virtual control of .Russians the purchase of at least 800, X0 bales of cotton goods has been Se lected from American to Russian cot ton a ill. Russian "traditional friendship" for U.e ruited States is one thing, and her readiness to seize a coraxercial advan ti; e i another. . ST!IIE rery nature of the end j toward which the young man of today must aim has altered, not the mean which he must employ in order to achieve his ambition. lie must possess the mental strength, the SOUND JUDG MENT OF MEN AND THINGS, the keen analysis of business tendencies and the general intelligence that can solve the problems of commerce. ' ; He requires, in other words, the PRACTICAL EDUCATION that cannot always be acquired in the higher schools of learning."': THE LAO WHO COMMENCES HIS CAREER AS AN OFFICE BOY IN A COMMERCIAL HOUSE GENERALLY OUTSTRIPS THE UNIVER SITY GRADUATE, WHO IS HANDICAPPED IN THE RACE OF LIFE BY THE FACT THAT HE LIVES IN AN ATMOSPHERE OF THEO RETICAL KNOWLEDGE UNTIL HE IS TWENTY-THREE YEARS OF AGE. Such training is serviceable only to members of the learned, pro fessions. The leaders in the world of commerce are almost always self made men, whose minds have been sharpened in the school .of experience. This practical and intelligent grasp of a business proposi tion, this constantly increasing acquaintance with business principles, is of slow and gradual growth. , ' , The boy who begins his career with the set purpose of doing his full duty to his employers and of acquiring a maximum knowledge of business methods in every position or department to which he is raised by his integrity, his reliability, his devotion to work, HIS WILLINGNESS TO REACH HIS OFFICE IN TIME AND TO BE THE LAST TO' LEAVE niS POST, acquires a char acter the value of which will be inevitably recognized by his superiors. THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR OF SUCCESS IS TRAINED IN TELLIGENCE. Man s Highest Development Dependent 1 -Upon the Development of Woman Professor IRA W. ilOWERTH of Chicago HE WOMAN QUE8TION IS IN ONE SENSE A PART OF THE LARGER SOCIAL QUESTION. WOMEN OUTNUM BER MEN IN ALL THE CIVILIZED NATIONS EXCEPT ITALY, BELGIUM AND THE UNITED STATES. M The number of women, however, does not give the' woman question its highest significance. THE DEVELOP MENT OF THE HIGHEST TYPE OF MANHOOD IS DE PENDENT UPON THE EQUAL DEVELOPMENT OF. WOM EN. Under present social conditions woman . is in a very ...true sense a subject a subject of social prejudices and conventxonali riM and in aoiyia rAftnr-ts a snhiect of man. ." ii""! lM. r -4 " . . BEFORE WOMAN CEASES TO BE A SUBJECT OR A SLAVE IT WILL BE NECESSARY FOR US TO CONVERT MAN, THE SLAVE HOLDER. ... : In other words, the ideas and standards of man must be changed. He must come to recognize that the labor of the woman in the home is a valuable contribution to the work of the world and de serves its reward. He must cease to regard woman as hi3 inferior or as "hi." WOMAN'S OWN CONSERVATISM MUST ALSO BE MODIFIED, AND SHE MUST CONSCIOUSLY PRE PARE HERSELF FOR A LIFE- OF FREEDOM. We must depend, therefore, upon : the educational influences of society, the church, the home, the school, social intercourse and the like, to prepare both man and woman for a social. condition in whicK there will -be no thought or appearance of subjection.

Uave at hand pasteboard or- light wooden boxes for the letters and papers that must be saved, and after covering eachW securely label it. Make bun dles of clothing, wrapping them in newspaper, so that they wUl be ready to put away without undoing. Just as far as possible make . everything ready for Immediate use in the new home. To this end have curtains and blankets laundered. Carpets, rugs and draperies cleaned and pillows reno vated.

To wash very grimy things, such aa overalls and working shirts, mix to gether equul parts of kerosene, lime water and turpentine. Shake the mix- ture in a bottle until creamy, then add a cupful to a boiler of clothes. It can also be used with hot suds, rubbing directly upon dirty grease spots, allow ing to stand five minutes before wash ing out and then rinsing In hot water. In dampening clothes for ironing hot water Is much better than cold. The moisture is more even, and the clothes are sooner ready for the iron.

Rural Pew lorker. 1 am pleased to give my experience with Wine of Caidui as I am vcry'gntefuJ for to help. After any first baby was bom I could not seem to re gain my strength, although the doctor gave tne atonic which he considered very superior, but instead of getting better I grew weaker every day. My husband came home one evening with some Vine of Csrdui andh satted that I take it for a week and see what ft would do for me. As he teemed to have so much faith in it I did take the i medicine and was very grateful to find my strength slowly returning. In two a weeks I was out of bed and in a month I v e . m a was awe to tace up my usual duties, i am very enthusiastic in its praise.' OTHERHOOD is the noblest duty and highest privilege women can achieve or aspire to. With M out this Privilege women do not get all there is in life too often they go through the world discontented, wrapped up in their own selfish cares and troubles. Row different is the happy mother, watching her children grow into manhood ana womanhood. A mother lives as many lives as she has children their Joys and sorrows are hers, as are their ambitions, triumphs ana deteats. Healthy women do not suf fer miscarriage nor deea ' woman' who is healthy suffer tortures at childbirth. It is the woman who is ail ingwho has female weak nesswho fears the ordeal of becoming a mother. Wine of Cardui builds up the wo manly in a woman. It stops, all unnatural drains and atiuais irregularities which are re sponsible for barrenness and miscar riage. ; It makes a woman strong and healthy and able to pass throtfgh preg nancy and childbirth with little suffer-' ing. After. the ordeal is passed the Wine prepares a woman for a speedy recovery to health and activity, .j Wine of Cardui, in re-inforcing the organs of generation, has made mothers of women who had given up hope of ever becoming mothers. Wine of Cardui will cure almost any case of barrenness except cases of organic-trouble. How can you refuse to take such a remedy that promises such relief from suffering? Wine of Cardui. simply makes yon a strong woman, and strong, healthy women do not suffer. They look for ward to motherhood with joy. ' WINEofCARDVI A million ' suffering women have found relief in Wine of Cardui. ;iiiiiii:;ii!i;!i!MftT) Drip Cap For Caadleatlcks, While the inventor of the drip cup for catching the melted wax from light ed candles states that he has designed I the cup especially for use by priests in administering the blessings of St. Blaise, the device will serve equnlly'as well for ornamental candles at the ban quet, and those used for more practical purposes. In the first instance the shield protects the clothing from fall ing grease, which, the inventor claims, would be unavoidable otherwise on ac count of the way the candles are held.

THERE LIE LATENT UNSUSPECTED rOWERS IN WILLING MEN AROUND US WHICH ONLY NEED APPRECIATION AND DEVELOPMENT TO PRO DUCE SURPRISING RESULTS.

' . . ; To effect thia every corporation could well afford to offer to dis tribute part of its shares among the saving workmen and in case of disaster give preference to repayment of principal as a first charge. , SPECULATION IS THE PARASITE OF BUSINESS, FEEDING UPON VALUES, CREATING NONE, and is wholly incompatible with the satisfactory performance of regular work re quiring constant care and caution.
