THE FARMER.
At early dawn when birds begin
To chant their morning lay
The farmer rises from his bed
To greet the coming day.
He sits him not in idle mood
Nor waits the shining sun,
But e'er its light the hill tops touch
His day's work has begun.
He calls upon the "boys" to "Come
And plant the held in corn;"
And they in very looks partake
The vigor of the morn.
With joyous heart he plants the corn,
With light steps sows the wheat,
For then he knows when winter
comes
He'll have enough to eat.
He'll have enough for each and all
Of those who claims his care.
And to his neighbor, poor, in want,
Perhaps a little spare.
On, on he toils until the noon
When comes the frugal meal,
:.nd then 'tis "Roys, the team yoke
up
And back into the field."
And thus he toils from morn till
night,
Fulifilliug the command
That man shall e.'irn his daily bread
By work of his own hand.
And in reward for honest toil
His Maker kind doth give
All He has promised in His word
To those who work to live.
He's bread, milk, butter on his board,
And in his smoke house meat,
His barns are stuffed with hay and
oats,
His cribs with corn and wheat,
A hardy yeoman of the land,
The monarch of the soil,
He seeks alone to gain support
By honest, daily toil.
No greed for office fills his mind,
No anxious cares his breast,
The day he gives to honest work,
The night he takes for rest.
Then honor to the farmer who
Leans on his own strong arm,
Who loves his country, trusts in God,
And this his model.

Tendency of the Times.
The tendency of med'eal science is toward
preventive measures. The best thought of
the world is being given to the subject. It
is easier and better to prev nt than to cure.
It has bee?i fully dem'nstrated that pneu
monia, one of the most dangerous diseases
that medical men have to contend with, can
be prevented by the use of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always results
from a Co'd or from an attack of influenza
(grip), and it has been observed that this
remedy counteracts any tendency of these
diseases toward pneumonia. This has been
full" proven in n-any thoasa ds of cases in
which this remedy has been used during the
great prevalence of colds and grip in recent
years, and can be relied upon with implicit
confidence. Pneumonia often results from
a slight cold when no danger is apprehended
until it is suddenly discovered that there is
fever and difficulty in breathing and pains
in he chest, then it is announced that the
patie t has pneumonia. Be on the safe side
and take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as
soon ps the cold is contracted. It always

ft new Society needed.
There are entirely too many socie
ties. Many now existing ought to
be abolished; but an excellent lady
has suggested the need of a new one.
She says all young ladies. who have
any regard for their future happiness
and welfare in life, and who desire
young men to be some account to
themselves, others and society, ought
to organize in each community and
bind themselves to carry out these
three strong resolutions :
"We will not keep company with
any young man who drinks intoxi
cating liquors.
"We will not ksep company with
any young man who smokes cigar
ettes. "We will not associate with young
men who stay out of church during
public worship."
If young ladies would carry out
these rules they would bring about a
reformation among young men that
would be an untold blessing to them.
Young ladies have the power and
opportunity to reform young men as
no one else has. The ability and the
opportunity to do good Imposes a
solemn responsibility. Young men
would quit these debasing habits
rather than be deprived of the soci
ety of young ladies.
A young nun who drinks intox -cants
has only a dark picture before

The Johnson Warehouse, Oxford, N. C,
Has been given up as the place for farmers to sell their tobacco Each pile, good or bad, fine or
common, brings top market price every sale no piles neglected, no piles overlooked. Glad to
say that wrappers continue to sell well and, along with other grades, always bring top-crust prices
on the Johnson floor. The rich and the poor, the big farmer and the little farmer, receive equal
justice at the Johnson. I have no " special pets " but am surely a true friend of all. If hard work
daring the new year, honest dealings and highest market prices for every pile and all grade? of
tobacco count for anything, then everybody should sell at the Johnson. Sure as you are born the
Johnson Warehouse is the place to sell tobacco. I take this opportunity to warmly thank my
farmer friends for their very liberal patronage during the year just closed, with the hope that I
shall continue to merit their confidence and esteem. Wishing each and every one a happy and
prosperous New Year, I am, Yours very truly,
Z. W- LYON, Prop'r Johnson Warehouse.
