The Raleigh News and Observer has donned a new dress and enlarged. It Is quite an improvement. Possibly the reason some people are white-washed is because lime is supposed to possess deodorizing properties.

The Publtc Ledger enjoys a large circulation direct among the farmers of Granville and our merchants and other business men will find it the best medium to reach the public. Send in your adver tisements and let the people know what you have got to sell. The boys on the "Oxford market are on deck with full hands of greenbacks, and are ready and willing to pay the farmers the highest market prices for all grades of tobacco. Strip it out and ship or haul it right along to Oxford as there are great demands for immense quantities and no mistake. If Oxford don't get her full share of tobacco it will not le the Ledger's fault. It is wide awake to Oxford's every inter est, and should be well patronized, by the warehousemen especially. John Taylor came from Oxford, so did Maurice Smith and Davis & Gregory. All are our f riends and we want to see them do well and so do they their home. Richmond Tobacconist. Mrs. John T. Britt is now receiving and opening up a very attractive and sty lish lineof Millinery goods, besides fancy artie'es and notions.

We would remind all those who in tend to buy new Furniture that Joe Webb's Furniture Emporium in now stocked with all kinds of the lastest designs in parlor suit, bedroom suits and in fact everything to be found in first-class houses. These goods will be sold at the lowest possible price, and it will pay you to call and examine them. Read advertisement. Alliance Tobacco Factory is on a regu lar hum. In the past few months the business has doubled and will put up a quarter of a million pounds of tobacco this year. This fully demonstrates what farmers can do when they put their shoulders to the wheel. This factory is under skillful management, and is now turning out as good manufactured tobac co as can be put up anywhere. We direct attention to the Profession al Card elsewhere of Dr. J. J. Bryant, who has located at Hesters. He is a gradu ate of the University of Maryland and was clinical assistant and resident student in the hospital one year, which thoroughly fitted him for the practice of medicine. He is a brother Mr. C. W. Bryan, who resides near Oxford, and has thoroughly qualified himself for the practice of the profession be has chosen. Death of Mrs. Lockhart. A telegram to the State Chronicle the 21st from Mr. Julian S. Carr, dated Mor ganton, stated that Mrs. Lockhart, wife of Captain. John S. Lockhart, ot Dur ham, died peacefully Monday night from nervous prostration. The remains will be carried to Dur ham, for interment, and it is stated that the funeral will take place to-day from Trinity Methodist church, of which she was a consistent member, Mrs. Lockhart was a daughter of the late . Col. Parrlsh, one of the moving spirits in the early history of Durham and a man of affairs. She was a sister of Capt. E. J. Parrish, Mrs. Julian S. Carr.and Mrs. Dr. Carr. She was greatly loved in the family circle and by many friends. She leaves one daughter, Miss Lillie. The warmest sympathy goes out to the husband and daughter in their sad be reavement. The Oranrille Exhibit. There was a meeting of this Committee a few days ago In the Court House and Important business was transacted. In the absence of Rev. M. L. Winston the Chair man, B. F. Hester, Esq., was called to the chair, and Mr. C. F. Crews, the permanent Secretary was on hand. The amount allowed to each township for getting up an exhibit in the townships was raised to $20, If that amount was deemed necessary as it was thought it would be in some townships. Every committeeman In all the town shipa was requested to do what they could to get up a good collection of mineral specimens, and also of mineral waters. Any one who has a mineral spring or well was requested to get as much as two half gallons of it properly marked and place it In the hands of Capt. John A. Williams for shipment. Several committees were appointed to stir up the people on the subject, loth ladles and gentlemen. Since the above was put in type we have received a telegram from Manager J. B. Hunter, stating that Granville's Day had been changed f rom the 6th of October to the 20th. Now let us all go right to work and get up a rousing exhibit for old Granville.

The Oxford Chapter of Royal Arch Masons, No. 8, which was suspended dur ing the war, was resussitated on the 19th in?t. by the election of the following of ficers: I. R. Fuller, II. P.; L.

There are as yet "no flies" on Oxford prospective fall business whether in the line of tobacco, general merchandise, building or real estate, and the people generally are hopefully trusting in the future, and all the elements of substan tial progress are with us and to stay. We urge our farmers to assert their county pride and stand by and patronize their county town, in every way they possibly can. Let us all unite and go forward together. As a general rule, it is best not to cor rect C03tiveness by the use of saline or drastic medicines. When a purgative is needed, the most prompt, effective and beneficial is Ayer's Pills. Their tenden cy is to restore, and not weaken, the nor mal action of the bowels. Be on Guard. When we advise the farmers not to sell their tobacco at the barn we do so be cause we really believe it is money in their pockets to put it direct on the ware house floor. So many instances during past year came right under our observa tion where farmers lost from f 20 to $60 on a load by selling their tobacco to coun try buyers. Of course some farmers have made money by it, but a majority have lost. When you sell your tobacco on the warehouse floor you always realize the highest prices, and the Oxford market is prepared to pay top notch figures for all grades. Just how an alterative medicine cUgxv ses the system is an open question ; .?;ut that Ayer's Sarsaparilla does produce a radical change in the blood is well attest ed on all sides. It is everywhere consid ered the best remedy for blood disorders Defending Colonel Polk. Rev. Dr. William S. Lacy, of Norfolk, Va., the distinguished pastor of the sec ond Presbyterian church of that tity, published tbe following letter in defense of Colonel Polk: "I know Colonel Polk well. We were fellow-students at college and in some of the same classes. Hif age is nearer fifty-six than thirty-six. He is certainly past fifty. He was a soldier in the Confederate service, a lieutenant in one of the regiments of the North Carolina State troops. My impression is that he attained no higher rank than that of lieutenant and that his title of colonel is a post-bellum honor. I know he was never Governor of North Carolina (those Kansas people are easily gulled) and could never have given an order for the maltraeatment of Federal prisoners. If he did aught of the kind, as allegad, he did it as a soldier under orders. What ever view may be taken of Colonel Polk's political affiliation he is a gentleman and a Christian. The First Step. Perhaps you are run down, can't eat, can't sleep, can't think, can't do anything to your satisfaction, and you wonder what ails you.

Because all diseases are the result of fermentation and decay, caused by living microbes in the human system, and whatever rem edy will purify the blood by removing the cause of disease and build up the health and strength of the patient, is the one to use. Eadam's Microbe Killer is nature's remedy, and is the greatest boon ever given to mankind, hence the spurious imitations wnicn follow in tne path 01 its woncterlul cures of Consumption, Catarrh. Debility, Indigestion, Kneumatism, uowei, uiaauer, okiu ana an otuer diseases which are quickly and permanently cured by this never failing compound which has done more for euffeiing humanity than all the prescriptions of poisonous drugs, nostrums, so called proprietary medicines, fcc, all put to gether, because it removes the cause of disease and insures health. Thousands of voluntary cer tificates of almost miraculous cures attest these facts, and demonstrate to the world that Wm. Radam, the Great Pioneer in his Wonderful Dis covery, has gone far ahead of all other exploreis in scientific fields, and has demonstrated beyond a doubt that no disease can exist without a dis ordered system, and his superb remedy stands at the front because it is THE ORIGINAL AND OLD RELIABLE Microbe Killer a palatable remedy which cures diseases by arresting decay and placing the sys tem in a natural and healthy condition. Investigate the merits of this wonderful health giving discovery which has stood the test and cured thousands of all manner of disease; and be ware of all other so-called germ or microbe de stroyers, which are often thus advertised to sell their otherwise worthless mixtures, and which are but imitators of this great wonder working remedy. for full particulars and certificates of wonder ful curee, address J.
