Mr. Editor: Allow me space In your most valued paper for the fol lowing subject: Shall we slay the saloons? Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood and establlsheth a city by iniquity. Woe unto him that giv eth his neighbor drink, that puttest the bottle to him and makest him drunken. Habakkuk. Who can tell the story of strong drink? Orators have tried to vivid ly depict it. It has been the theme of poet and singer, the subject of teacher and preacher. Butthedepths and anguish it have caused have never been sounded; the hearts it has broken have never been counted; the homes it has wrecked have neyer been numbered ; the lives it has blighted are beyond apprehension, it Is a subject which touches the se cret springs of the home life. Strong drink has driven the love-light from the eyes, the bloom from the cheek, the color from the lips, the strength from the parent's arms, the love from his breast and the comfort from the home. It has bruised the baby's ten tier form, snatched shoes from its tiny feet, the food from its expectant lips. Strong drink has filled the pris ons and asylums, the poor houses and hospitals with its victims. Strony drink! there is no crime of which it has not been guilty, no cru elty of which it has been innocent, no deception which it has not practiced, no disnonor which it is not capable, no wreck and ruin to body, mind and spirit which it has not wrought. There is a great crowd of wf tnesses. Go to the felon's cell and ask the youthful criminal the cause of his de linquency, go to the murderer's dun geon and ask him what brought him there; go to the struggling widow and ask her what ruined her hus band; go to the stricken mother and ask for her boy; go to the helpless orphan and ask for his parents. One chorus of voices will answer: "Strong drink! strong drink! strong drink!" it is the enemy of all purity and righteousness. There Is nothing new to say upon the subject, but there Is a plenty to do, it seems, to put the evil away from us. All acknowledge its baneful Influence upon the life of our nation, but few comparatively seem to realize their personal obliga tion towards this momentous ques tion. Of many arguments used against prohibitory legislation, there Is one which says "that if prohibition Is granted the traffic will be carried on by 'bot-leggers' and driven into dives. If the traffic must exist at all these are the very places whither It should be driven. Old topers will find them, of course, but our boys will have the chance for the first time of being saved from the open temptation of the saloons, and when the open saloon becomes illegal, drinking becomes less respected. Let us protect the young men and make them useful men In the future. F. W. PITTS. Raleigh Post: Jacob Flaherty a young white man employed as a flag manon the Seaboard Air Llne.accused of stealing articles with a face value of about $2,000, was sent to jail last week In default of a $500 bond. A Purgative Pleasure. If you ever took DeWitts Little Early Risers for billioasness or constipation you know what a purgative pleasure is. These famous little pills cleanse the liver and rid the system of all bile without producing un pleasant effects. They do not gripe, sicken or weaken, but give tone and streng'h to the tissues and organs involved. W. H. Howell of Houston Tex. says "No better nill ran ip used than Little Earlv Risers for constipation, sick headache, etc." J. . Hall Discovery of rich gold fields in the State of Oxaca, Mexico, causes excite ment there. Gained Forty pounds in Thirty Days. For several months our younger brother had been troubled with indigestion. He tried several remedies but got no benefit from thfni. We purchused some of Cham berlains Stomach and Liver Tablets and he commenced taking them. Inside ot thirty days he had gained forty pounds in flesh. He is now fully recovered. We have a good trade on the Tablets. Holley Bros. Merchants, Lcig Branch, Mo. For sale by all druggists. Occasionally women make fools of men, but they are not responsible for all the fools. The Pleasure of Eating. Persons suffering from indigestion, dyspepsia or other stomach trouble will find that Kodol Dyspepsia Cure digests what you eat and makes the stomach sweet. This remedy is a never failing cure for Indigest'on and Dyspepsia and all complaints affecting the glands or membranes of the stomach or di gestive tract. When you take Kodol Dys pepsia Cure everything you eat tastes good, and every bit ot the nutriment that your food contains is assimilated and appropri ated by the blood and tissues. J. G. Ha'l. A man doesn't necessarily lead a dogs life because his wife pets him. Doctors Could not Melp her. "I had kidney trouble for years," wriles Mrs. Raymond Conner of Shelton, Wash , "and the doctors could not help me. I tried Foleys Kidney Cure, and the very dose gave me relief and lam now cured. I can not say too much for Foley's Kirtney Cure." Sold by R. L. Hamilton. Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Don't Know it. How To Find Out. Fill a bottle or common, glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or set tling indicates an unhealthy condi tion of the kid neys; if it stains your linen it is evidence of kid ney trouble; too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and blad der are out of order. What to Do. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extra ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its won derful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists in 50c. and$l. sizes. You may have a sample bottle of this wonderful discovery and a book that tells more about it, both sent absolutely free by mail. A J J A Aaaress ur., wimer OC Home of Swamp-Root. Co., Binghamton, N. Y. When writing men tion reading this generous offer in this paper. Don't make any mistake, but remember the name, Swamp-Root, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the address, Binghamton, N. Y., on every bottle. The Genuine vs. Counterfeits. The genuine is always better than a conter feit, but the truth of this statement is never more forcibly realized or more thoroughly appreciated than when you compare the genuine DeWitts Witch Hazel Salve with the many counterfeits and worthless sub stitutes that are on the market. W. S. Led better, of Shreveport, La., says: "Af'er using numerous other remedies without ben efit, one hox of DeWitts Witch Hazel Salve cured me." For blind bleeding, itching and protruding piles no remedy is equal to DeWitts Witch Hazel Salve. J. G. Hall. The Hustler says Mr. T. C. Myers, of Wilkes, brought a load of dried blackberries to North Wllkesboro one day last week and realized .$150.50 for the load. Rydales Elixir. The new scientific discovery for diseases ot j the throat and lungs acts upon a new prin- l ciple differing greatly from the old style ! Cough Medicines, which are composed ! chielly of wild cherry and tar, which do lit- j tie more than stimulate the lining of the j throat and lungs. Rydales Elixir strikes at j the roof of the trouble, it kills the microbes ! that cause thioat and lung diseases. It re-j moves the cause and hastens recovery by helping nature restore the diseased organs to health. J. G. Hall. The agricultural department of the country is lucky. It is the only one which can use grafting methods with out subjecting Itself to suspicion. Baltimore American. Is Indigestion a Disease? The best medical authorities say that indi gestion is not always caused by diseased stomach, but may result from a disordered liver, constipation, excitement etc. 1 he cause is of little consequence when Rydales Stomach Tablets are taken as they never fail to digest the food, check fermation, free the stomach from irritatng acids and an excess of gas. They relieve at once, belching heartburn, sour stomach, fullness after eat ing etc. Rydales Stomach Tablets have a specific tonic effect on the stomach and or gans of assimilation and are guaranteed to cure the worst forms of stomach trouble.

Under the advice of "Aunt Jennie Simmons." a snake doctor of repute, Cornelius drank about a pint of whiskey, one-half pint spirits of ter pentine, one quart of blackberry wine and ate two and one-fourth plugs of the "Red Elephant" tobacco and within twenty-four hours he was able to sit up and was reported still improving. Now the question arises, if Wheeler could survive that treat ment isn't it proof positive that he would recover from the bite of the biggest rattlesnake that ever drove its fangs into human flesh?
