THE RUTHERFORDTON SUN, THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH 23, 1905 THE RED ttEfl; A Red Mart Explains The Vdrking Of The Order. tfinar.iiil to The Sun.) CLIFFSIDE, March 13. Please allow a Red Man some space in yoiir valuable paper id explain to Pale Faces in this riecic of the woods what sort of an organization. the Red Men are. Our cardinal prin cipals are Freedom, Friendship and Charity. We are beneficial and re ciprocal. We aid the afflicted, counsel the distressed, succor the feeble, watch over the sick and bury the dead. We care for the widow and educate the orphan. We ad- minister no oaths binding our mem bers to any political or religious sect. We bind neither the hands nor the feet. As vou enter our Wigwam, so you depart a free man. The Red Men are not a rival to other benevolent societies, but a co-worker with them in the great work of relieving human suffering and elevating the condition of man kind: We are patriotic because we had our origin in the dark days just prior to the Revolutionary War. and were with the Patriots in that stfuprerle for civil and re ligious liberty. We love our flag, for it is the flag: of the free and waves o'er the homes of the brave But in all thiners. Charity is the -golden link that binds Red Men together. We don't want any man in our order unless he has in his bosom that principle to help others in time of need. We want men and women who work from princi ple and unless they have a desire to help raise the fallen, cheer the faint, and are trying to live by the Golden Riile. They would be a miserable failure in a Red Man's Wigwam. Our order is distinc tively American, born in America. It receives none except American citizens into its sacred mysteries. A man must be is years old or more, an American citizen, white, of good moral character and striving to make an honest living and a be liever in the Great Spirit, the ruler of the Universe. We number to day over four hundred thousand, and we spent last year for benevo lent purposes the sum of $791,349, which would be $2,168 a day, $900 per hour and $15 per minute, with a steady increase in membership. We have some three hundred Red Men in Rutherford county and with a probable increase of 0 e hundred per cent in the next 112 months. We invite all honetf up- . light American citizens to enlist in this cause of fallen humanity. Such are my truthful words. POWHATTAN. FROM GREEN HILL. Miss Taylor's Schooi Closed Farmers Busy. CSpeclal to The Sun.) 3KiSiSN mt,t,, Marcn 13. The school in District No. 5, on the ! Hickory Nut Gap road, just above J. W. Metcalf's, tatient by Miss Clara Taylor, an efficient teacher, closed last Friday, the 17th, and the children all did well, which showed that they had been well trained. The large crowd present enjoyed the exercises very much. At the close of the exercises the patrons of the school and the teach er made up ten dollars in cash to j buy a library. The patrons of the School wanted to make up a sub-1 scription school for two months longer. We don't know whether Miss Taylor will agree to teach it or not. She 'taught a most excel lent school and the patrons were sorry for the school to stop. We hope Miss Taylor will teach the next school at No. 5. February has been the coldest and roughest month we have ever seen; but the cold has subsided and the plow boy is he&f d again. The farmers have c'bnimefcced sowing oats and breaking tip the land for other crops." The white winter oats suits this country best. We think farmers would do well to try and get in seed of the regular old white winter oats. They will do to sow in the' fall or spring and we think it is the best plan to' sow some in the fall and some in the spring. Sow in the morning, and in the evening. You cant tell which will prosper. Teachers' Association. The teachers of Rutherford county will hold the next meeting of the &68or elation in Rutherfordton on Saturday, March 25th. 1909. The meeting is an important one as the County Superin tendent will explain fully to the teach ers the changes made by the last Legis lature in the scho law. The question' chosen for discussion is, "What Can We Do in Vacation to Help ; the Public Schools in Our County?" 9 will be" paid to any person who can find one atom of opium, chloral, morphine; cocaine, ether or chloroform in any form in any of Dn Miles Remedies. This reward is offered because certain unscrupulous persons make false statements about these remedies. It is under stood that this reward applies only to goods purchased in the open market, which have not been tampered with in any way. Dr. Miles' remedies cure by their soothing; nourishing, strengthening and invigorat ing effects upon the nervous system, and not by paralyzing and weakening the nerves as would be the case if these drugs were used. For this reason Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills are universally considered the best pain remedy "I have suffered for 25 years with severe pains in my head, heart and back, and have tried everything1 I could get and could not find any relief until I grot a box of Dr. Miles Anti Pain Pills. I suffered as long as l4 hours at a time with such severe pains that I feared I would lose rnjr mind. The Anti-Pain Pills gave m relief In from 10 to 20 minutes. I do not have to use Morphine any mora. I wish you would publish this so that other sufferers may find relief. .1- A. WALKER. R. F.-D. No. 6. Salem, Ind. Or.

Some of The Sun's correspond ents seem to differ somewhat on the present new road law, but we will remain quiet and see how they get along with their controversy. We remember hearing an old fel low say once that everybody could hot see alike and he was glad of it, ror it tney couia see anice every man would nave wanted nis old woman for a wife. Copper Bill says he regrets very much he couldn't accept Brown's invitation, but he feels confident that he sent one of his neighbors who was amply able to fill his place in every particular and especially in size.

MHj abOVe piCXUre OX the man and fish is the trader mark otbeott s Emulsion, and is the synonym for strength and purity. It is sold in almost all the civilized coun tries of the globe, If the cod fish became extinct it would be a world-wide calam ity, because the oil that comes from its liver surpasses all other fats in nourishing and life-giving properties. Thirty years ago the proprietors of Scott's Emul sion found a way of preparing cod liver oil so that everyone can take it and get the full value of the oil without the objectionable taste. Scott's Emulsion is the best thing in the world for weak, backward children, thin, delicate people, and all conditions of wasting and lost strength. Send for tree sample.

Messrs. Hall & Parker have moved their shingle mill from Mr. E. W. Hall's place to Mr. L. M. Wilkerson's place near Sugar Hill. Mr. and Mrs. D. R. Geer, of Gilkey, While working at Mr. J. H. Burgess' saw mill on day last week uncle Cirt Wilkerson cut an ugly gash in his foot. Uncle Cirt is one of our old time dar kies, and we hope to see him out soon. Last Friday morning a picnic party, led by Mr. L. D. Hemphill, visited Buz zard Nest Rock, Rock House and the High Shoals on Cove creek. After all the important places had been visited dinner was spread on the ground and all feasted on the good things which had been prepared. The writer has vis ited many places of attraction, but none of more interest than the ones visited on ! this trip. The Pinnacle is a well known j place for mountain tourists to visit, one of which as fine punoramic views can be had from this place as any place in Ruth ariord county, but we believe there is more attraction in visiting Buzzard Nest Rock, Rock House and the High Shoals than any place in this county. The trip was a most enjoyable one, ana it will long be remembered by those who com posed the party. Auction Sale, April 4th. Beginning on April 4th, Mr. Ed Thompson, will at the late residence of A.
