PAGE TWO THE GREAT ADNES VISITS ; QUEEN CITY OF CHARLOTTE iSales of Marvelous Medicines Continue to Increase Local- ly, Notwithstanding Great Advertiser is f Now in Mecklenburg. "Notwithstanding The Great Andes his left Raleigh aud Is how making his headquarters in Charlotte, the qfceen city of Mecklenburg county, for a campaign similar to the one conducted in this city for the past thirty days, the sales of the marvel ous Andes' remedies continue locally, an unexpected Increase having been shown. Every one in the south recognizes "fixe Great Andes, lecturer, manufac turer and philanthropist, as one of t(fe most original and striking ad vertisers known to the public. His wonderful ability in this line has made his name famous and has placed his medicines in almost every home in the state of North Carolina, but this does not explain the sus tained demand, the increasing sales, Uie continuous stream of orders, for tliese preparations. Peace Closes a Successful 6- Session Today, drama because Shakespeare has joined the shades and no more ora tory, etc. Yet we express ourselves in ways better suited to our age. The modern poet and dramatist voices tfce cry of the modern World. Men of the old days if they were living now would hot write as they did. We ought not to feel that the world of letters is dead. We have a great field open before us. Humor will never die trar as long as we have children and Ir colored population with us. Why is one suggestive and another is not? Some writers are suggestive to all people of culture. And if they are not the fault lies in you. $"Other writers suggest more to us at one period in life than at another. Again we must have favorable mo ments. "The firmness of a writer's grasp upon the verities of 'life,' man. nature. God, constitute in a large measure a waiter's suggestiveness. Many of them have had a firm grasp on man. dbd is an integral part of all litera ture, the more it is permeated with pod, the better it is. Literature has made a great advance in nature." The speaker gave the views of na ture expressed by Chaucer, Spencer, Shakespeare, and Wordsworth. " "These three topics are beautifully associated. If we know about one we know a great deal about the other two. ' "There are certain characteristics that must be cultivated to get sugges- flveness, . There must be a well marked individuality and personality. This Is true in life. It is the winning ways that moves the world. You must be you. Woman are more in clined to imitate than men. You have been put here to occupy a par ticular niche. Try to be somebody else and you will change the taber nacle of the spirit into a lumber room of dying fact and dead fancy. "The object of all literature is to fipd the man behind the book. The most suggestive writer is the one with the greatest individuality stamped on the pages of the book. "Convictions on all fundamental Questions of right and wrong in life and literature is another characteris tic of suggest iveness. Cultivate your convictions. Dp your own thinking. You will never be a power without. Cultivate reserve power. It gives force to personality. There is one other thing that gives a writer power, sympathy. : "The Bible is the most suggestive book because It conies from God, writ ten by men Impelled by the personal ity of God. It was translated when the words were fresh, and had not had their meaning worn." .'Dr. Currell concluded his beauti ful address with this thought: l "Lives after all are mountain roads to God. We make a sudden torn in the road that is often thorny at places and catch vistas of beauty and glory. As we go further up we see the lights again and again, until we reach the sun-smitten summit, where we shall be satisfied, for we 6 The Best I MEDICINE To Wake up your Uver mud Purity your Blood TAKE IT NOW TNI OtMUINI kM lh RID I Unliii mm4 MTf J.

Such is only explained by the won derful merit which Andes' medicines possess and their wonderful efficacy and value is proven by thousands in tliis section of the state, cures al most miraculous in their nature, hav ing been achieved, not only in Ral eigh, in the contiguous towns, but in every section of this and adjoining southern states.

Improvements to be Made,' Mr. James Young, of the Peace committee, spoke of the gratification the committee felt over the success ful year, the most successful in the history of the school. Daring the summer $;l,0o0 will be spent in renovating the inside of the building. Every cent of this money has been made in the institution and they: are looking forward to an even more prosperous term next year, as already half the present student-body have engaged rooms for the next year. Presentation of Portrait. "What though his voice is heard no more About these grounds and halls. Nor any longer, as of yore, His faithful footstep falls? His noble presence still prevails And never can be gone; For 'tis Incorporate in the gales, The vines, the trees, the lawn. Nay, more! far as the trackless wind Doth o'er the planet rove, So far hath fared his message kind Of faith and hope and love. Nor shall his blessed influence cease Through time's unmeasured years, Nor while the cycles shall increase in those serener spheresj Look down, as long as these walls . shall rise On those who follow thee, That they shall feel, dear friend,1 thine eyes Their scarlet souls can see!" The above lines from the pen of Prof. Jerome Stockard, president of Peace Institute, were read by him yesterday afternoon as the soft white veiling fell from before the portrait of Dr. James Dinwiddie, who for seventeen years was the beloved president of that institution. The portrait was unveiled by little Misses Elizabeth Kilgore and Nannie Bur well Crow, the two little granddaugh ters of Dr. Dinwiddie. Banked against the wall beueath the portrait were beautiful palms, while a Peace pennant hung just be low the picture. The large hall was filled with the friends of the institution who had gathered to do honor to the memory of the late president. The students of Peace, all In pure white, opened the exercises by singing "Carolina." Seated on the platform were Pres ident Henry Jerome Stockard, Hon. James R. Young, of the board of trustees. Chief Justice Walter Clark, Leo D. Heartt and Mr. Jaques Bus- bee, the artist whose talent had pro duced the splendid portrait of Dr. Dinwiddie. The two little grand daughters of Dr. Dinwiddie, who un veiled the portrait had seats upon the platform. The Invocation was by Dr. W. McC. White.. The portrait was presented by Mr. Leo. D. Heartt, who said that the program of the afternoon would be one of lasting duration for a memor ial tribute was to be placed upon the walls that would last for years to come. It was in 'loving memory of one who still lives In the hearts of those who knew him. It is a great thing to paint a portrait and give It life as one of Raleigh's artists had done, but to quicken Intellect and Instill truth Is nobler still. This was the calling of Dr. James Dinwiddie, and faithfully did he perform his mission. In 1890 he became president of Peace Institute and continued so un til 1907. Yet he lives In the hearts of Peace girls and In behalf of the student body and faculty be felt It an honor to present In their name this token of loving memory. In tossing through these halls It will be easy to look up and feel that the head of the household is still here. The portrait was accepted by Pres ident Stockard In behalf of the man agement of Peace and be gave It wel come to the honored and historic walla of Peace Institute. It was par ticularly fitting that It should be given by the girls who knew him and not strangers of another generation and to the artist, who by his genius J bad made nun live again, ne gave hearty thanks.
