Dandruff is due to an enfeebled state of the skin. Hall's Hair Renewer quickens the nutritive functions of the skin, healing and preveting the forma tion of dandruff. A man should have too much respect for himself, and those with whom he mingles, to attempt to discuss public questions about which he is totally uninformed. To do so, invites con tempt. Don't do it. All the elements that nature de mands to make the hair abundant and beautiful, are supplied by Ayer's Hair Vior. It keeps the scalp fre from dandruff, prevents the hair from becoming dry and harsh, and causes it to be rich, flexible and glossy. The following appears in the Com mercial Union under date of Jan. 31: ' Ex-Gov. Hogg of Texas is to start a laily paper at Dallas, Tex. It is not surprising that after having been driv en out of the political doors, Hogg should take to the pen." Mr.. Joseph "Walters, the watchmak er and jeweler, says the crop of young maidens in the vicinage is large and most delightful to look upon. The . :ellow is evidently matrimonially in filled, and doubtless has already"ben fatally-impressed by a Hickory beauty. -r. J. X. Uohannon, the elegant itleiuan, the peerless citizen and the most successful drummer now on the road, left us last week on an extended Trq i-i the West. He will be absent lwo or three months, and before re turuinsr vill visit Texas and New Mex- l r.

The people of thin w.tinn will utter get a better looal npaper zjf io-aay, and it bemores them to u.t tain it a far 'as they r.an by their patronage. Alex Patterson, negro, claiming toi: hail from Mecklenburg county, wlio is ! charged with the murder and robbery j or a negro man, near Mooresville, on ; or about Dec. 27th. 1894, was arrested : in this city on the Cth inst., by Marshal j Miller, and turned over to the Sheriff of Iredell county, who took him to Statesvillw where he will be f ried for the crime.. Lawyer Crisp, of Granite, attended the meeting of the City Council: Tues day night of last week in the behalf of Mr. D. H. Russell, who had been noti fied to remove his building just north of the City Hall, Knowing the con servative good sense of the aldermen and Mr. Russell, we feel fully assured that the matter will be satisfactorily adjusted between all concerned within the next thirty days. Thursday, Feb. 7th, at noon the day was comparatively pleasant, but when the weather-bureau's report arrived and it was known that it announced a cold wave upon us and a. fall of. twenty, degrees in temperature by Friday mornirfg, many scoffed, yet thV pre diction was fulfilled by 9 p. m. At sunup Friday mbrniug, a reliable ther mometer registered two degrees below zero the coldest weather yet experi enced in North Carolina. By previous appointment, Ilev. Jno. W. Davis, D. D., a missionary to Shanghai China,. for the past twenty one years, lectured in the Presbyterian church Thursday 'niht, Feb. 7th. The attendance, owing t:o the exceed ingly cold weather, was small; but the lecture was decidedly interesting. The speaker, regards the present abject condition of China, in her contention with Japan, as due to her sins and 'in tolerable arrogance. Providence, Mr. Davis said, is using. Japan in the neces sary humiliation of China for the full accomplishment of its purposes. The barriers erected by the Mongolians to prevent their own civilization and the admission of christianizing inlluences into the "Celestial Empire," Mr. Davis prophesied, would be broken dawn by Japan, and the progress pf the world greatly accelerated. Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction City, 111. was told by her doctors she had Consumption and that there was no hope for her, but two bottles Dr. King's New Discovery completely curetl her and she says it saved her life. Mr. Thomas Eggers, 139 Florida St. San Francisco, suffered from a dreadful cold, approaching Consump tion, tried without result everything else then bought one bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery and in two weeks was cured. He is naturally thankful. It is such results, of which these are samples, that prove the won derful efficacy of this medicine in Coughs and Colds. Free trial bottles at O. M.

Miss Jean Evans, of the Hospital, spent last Sunday in town with Miss Evelyn Erwin. Rev. R. L. Patton has entirely recov ered from his recent illness and is up and about again. Messrs. Rob't McConnaughey and Bob Goodson, left last Friday for Ken tucky, where they go to buy some blooded stock which they will sell here. The Herald has received a telegratn from Washington, announcing Louis McKesson's appointment to a position in the Interior. We are glad to know of Louis' luck. He is a bright lad and deserves success. The Dramatic Club met at Mr. S. T. Pearson's Tuesday night. They have secured several plays and are now re hearsing them. The public will be re galed with something "great" in the near future. Mr. E. Stanley Walton has just been appointed sub or deputy State Treas urer, in place of J. A. Dickson, re signed. Mr. Walton, will, of course, do all the paying for the Hospital, as Mr. Dickinson did. It is a very neat little position. It pays about $400 per vear. Some time ago the Herald asked the county papers all over the State to send their papers to the Deaf and Dumb School at Morganton. Only a very, very few of the State's weeklies have responded to this call so far Now, gentlemen, be liberal and send your paper. To the Editor Please inform your read ers that I have a positive remedy for the above named disease. By its timely use thousands of hopeless cases have been per manentlv cured. I shall be glad to send two bottles of my remedy free to any of your readers who have consumption if they will send me their express and post office address. Respectfully. T. A. Slocum, M. C, !

Smith, of New Market,. "ifc'df;, a widow with seven children, "luafried Abram' Nelson, of that" place.. . Whatever happiness .the new mar riage brought to the : vldd w was - un shared by the children of the first'hus band, and they soon; found that their step-father's temperinade home only a name.' . , : ' .'

Thej- determined to throw off the irk some yoke, and . so, without 'further ado, they went forth from the roof that' had so long sheltered them to differ ent parts bf the United States, aided by the money the" 'older brothers had contrived to put aside for that purpose. Carrie, the youngest, eight years of. age, went to the home of an uncle, a Mr. Decker, of New York, who had an invalid wife, to whom she was to make herself useful in lieu of payment for board and clothes. Three years afterward Mr. Decker's wife died, .and in 1879 lie was stricken down and died in the fall of that year. Here the independent spirit of Car rie Smith asserted itself, and without either asking assistance or notifying her brothers or sistes, she packed her small belongings and went out into the world to battle with life, depending upon her sex, for protection and her pluck for a livelihoods, ... From that time to December of last year her whereabouts were unknown to her brothers or sisters, notwith-j standing that every line of inquiry was diligently pursued. William Smith, .who had gone to Philadelphia, had been singularly for tunate in business, and spared neither pains nor expense in endeavoring to secure some clew either to her exist ence or to her death, but all without avail. . . Advertisements were spread broad cast, but all fresh efforts proved as fruitless as former attemps. The marriage of a Carrie Smith in wheeling, W. Va., was read with avid ity, but upon investigation it proved to be another than the long-sought sister. At that time the name of Carrie Nelson was famed throughout the West. Her great personal mangetism and rare beauty became the topic of conversation. While on her starring tour she played at a theater in Okla homa, and Charles and Frank, two of the brothers, attracted by the report of the woman's great beauty and tal ent, attended the play. On leaving the theater Frank re marked that the actress reminded him of Carrie, their lost sister, "around the eyes." - ' Charles replied that the same resem blance had impressed him very forci bly. The woman's position and her reputed wealth seemed to preclude any such probability, and whatever hopes they had entertained in that direction were blighted upon learning that the actress' name of Nelson was not an assumed name, but hers by birth. Inquiry revealed so little that, as time grew apace, the hope of ever find ing their sister began to wane, and it became almost accepted by her broth ers and sisters that she must have long been dead. In December of last year Abrani Nelson died, and his death was an nounced in the New Market and Okla homa papers. It was by this means that the where abouts of the lost sister was revealed. Stmnge, was it not, that when all oth er endeavors to find her proved futile the death of the man who had caused the severance of home ties should be come tluineans of uniting those jwho had so cruelly torn from home influ ence and tender association? Here can be discerned the hand of destiny. The lost sister at once wrote to her mother, inclosing a check for a large sum and giving her address in San ..Franciscp. CaL, Hit brother!
