It Is good work to talk up good things and talk down bad things. It Is fearfully bad work to talk down good people and good things. You cannot do much talking down bad people It Is much better to talk them up to better lives. All wicked ness ought to be talked down frowned down and trampled under foot by all good people. Wickedness has no right to exist on earth where there Is some good that may be Injured by It. Wickedness Is only entitled to exist In hell where all is bad and cannot be made any worse. But It Is ex ceedingly sad that a great deal of good Is talked down and crippled. Here Is a man with a great many good qualities enough to make him quite useful, but he has a few faults. These are looked at, talked about and magnified until his virtues are over shadowed by them and his char acter Is blighted and his usefulness destroyed. How much more chris tian like It would be to overlook his faults and to talk up his virtues and make others see that there is good In him. Many church members will talk themselves hoarse telling the faults of the members of their own church and other churches. If you could be llevejwhat they say you would con clude that nearly all the bad people belong to churches. Some church members are always talking down their own church. They represent It as the sorriest of all the churches. Nothing Is done according to their notion. The only work these people do In the church Is to find fault. They talk down the Sabbath school. They say the superintendent and teachers do not run the school right. All the work they do In connection with the school Is to talk It down or stay away and let It die. Some church members talk down the pastor. They look for faults In him and of course they find them, often only imaginary faults, but too often real faults for no preacher Is perfect. If your preacher was perfect he would not suit you unless you are perfect. If you are perfect then you are entitled to a perfect preacher if you can find one. If you are perfect then certainly your present pastor does not suit you for all preachers have some faults. If your pastor Is a bad man get rid of him as quick as you can in an honorable way. If he Is not morally bad but falls to do his duty If he misses many of his ap pointments, If he is too lazy or too Ignorant to prepare and preach new gospel semoDS If he falls to try to lead your church to better lines and better work then he does not suit you and you ought, through the of fleers of your church, to ask him to resign and if he has any honor about him he will quietly do so and get out of your way. But suppose your pas tor Is a good man, laboring, tolling sacrificing to build up your church and lead sinners to Christ, buthe.llke all preachers has some faults, but he also has some good qualities. In a case like this what ought a christian to do? Ought he to look alone at the pastors few faults and talk him down, or look at his good qualities and talk him up? Which do you think would be most pleasing to God, and helpful to your own piety? Stop talking down and go to talk ing up. Look for the good there Is In your neighbors and In your church members and talk up this good. Look for the good there Is In y( ur Sabbath school. It Is there find It and talk It up. Your church Is not worse than the average churches She has some good members and Is trying to do some good things. Look for and find her good qualities and talk them up. Your pastor, it may be Is a good average man. He has some faults. If he did not he would be widely dif ferent from other christians. But he has virtues, look for them ana you will find them and when you do talk them up. If you will stop talking down and will go to talking up your neighbors, brethren, Sabbath school, church and pastor and will work with your pas tor and the church members who are working, then you will be a happy useful christian and all your church work will prosper. Yours for better things, TALKER UP.

ROYAL TONIC T , T ' The movement for a two-cent fare on the railroads has become so gen eral as to look like a concentrated movement. Ohio has already passed a bill limiting fare to two cents a mile. The Virginia Legislature is considering a similar measure, llke iwlBeappncable to all railroads with in its jurisdiction. In New York, where it Is stated, the two-cent rate has been general for years, a bill is pending requiring some of the rail roads the more prosperous and progressive ones to grant a 1 cent rate The question is under consider ation in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Michigan and sever al other states, and the important newspapers of such states are vig orously advocating either legislation or reducing the fare to the basis specified by voluntary action by the roads In advance of what they deem to be the Inevitable government ac tion. Some railroad managers ex press great alarm over this legisla tion and declare It will cut deep into the revenue of ther lines. Others are of opinion that the Increased travel caused by low rates will more than make up the loss In price. PUT THE BAN ON NO CLASS. As the contest for state and county officers draws near one may hear from various quarters whispered ad monitions to place lawyers, so far as the legislature Is concerned, under a political ban. "Have nothing to do with them," say the wiseacres, "for if you do they will go to Raleigh and vote with and for the railroads and other corporations." Well it depends on what sort of a lawyer you get whether he will look out for the best interests of the peo ple or not. A lawyer should not be ostrac.lsed simply because he Is a law yer. There are honest and dishonest lawyers, just as there are men of this dlscrlptlon in other classes says Free Press. The point is this: No man should be nominated and elected to the gen eral assembly simply because he is a lawyer, or farmer, or doctor or merchant.or a general "roustabout." His record and qualifications should be inquired Into and his character should be examined; he should be placed in the balance, and if found wanting he should not be nominat ed. This thing of trying to array one class against another, or pitting town against country will not do. There are honest, conscientious and competent men everywhere and there are weak and dishonest ones at every hand. The thing that counts is a combination of character and ability FAILURE ON THE FARM. Throughout the length and breadth of our land we find the farms tenant ed by men, who, It seems have Dever made a success nor failure of farming but who have managed to live reas onably and comfortably. Some men have made great success at farming from the possession of qualities of energy, perseverence, de termination and the ability to do the right thing at the right time.but It is a difficult thing to point out the qualities which one can grasp and secure by them his success upon the farm. There are real failures upon the f irm which may arise from many causes. Accidents and Ill-luck may keep a man down for years, but there are so many opportunities in life that It is not necessary for him to be ruin ed permanently. Our moss successful farmers have had high waters to wade through. but the man who lets a few strokes of misfortune ruin him has not the qualifications to succeed. We blame misfortune or ill-luck for many things that are but the consequence of our perversity; very often what we ca 1 fate is the consequences of our own actions; unlucklness as a rule Is due to some bidden defect. We have farmers who are wholly Indifferent as to whether they suc ceed or fall. They can endure any thing but they cannot rouse them selves to make an effort to resist the oncoming of what they call faie;they will float with the tide, but will not row a stroke against it. A friend may try to assist them. but they can not grasp the opportunity ;they may be prudent, painstaking and indus trious, but you cannot raise them from the slough, and they keep sink ing. From the acorn to the oak, the or dained route is service and sacrifice. The men who are successful farmers have clambered over rough and rug ged ways. Well directed effort is a exacting nurse, but she raises fine ex amples of manhood. Results are what we are striving for and results are worth the processes. Some say, "give us the right con ditions, and we can make a success of farming." The environment of our most suc cessful farmers was not harmonious. They had trials and misfortunes, but they achieved In spite of them. There are other unpractical people who fall because they refuse to recognize the necesary conditions which fence a man in impatient to reach the goal without doing the necessary work. The routine work of the farm Is as everything else.more or less drudg ery; but there is a way of dcing it so you will enjoy and bless others while doing It. It Is possible to putthear tlstlc spirit into the farmers toll. Thus can we transform our dull farm Into a palace of the klng.wlth a beau tiful aureole. $100 Reward $i00.

One question which the Democratic executive com mittee will be called upon to decide Is as to the method which should be employed in doing this. In theory the primary says the Kinston Free Press is an ideal plan; in practice It may or may not work out satisfactorily. The old conven tion plan has been tried and that, too, has at times been found wanting in essential respects. Conventions have been known to be "packed" for certain officers; and the voters were asked to take up the candidates nom inated and carry them through to victory. This they did under the im pulse of a powerful pressure exerted by the fear of negro domination. At this time voters will hardly be so willing and enthusiastic In the sap port of any and every candidate since this outside pressure has been re moved. But there Is no reason why a coun ty convention may not be just and fair and really representative of pub lic opinion throughout the party as is the primary plan supposed to be. It all depends on the methods used In either case. What the Democratic party wants and must have is a list of candidates chosen freely and without restraint by and from the hosts off- "the tymter rlfied. This being done there' is no reason in the world why we can't go before the people and come back again with a bigger majority than ever. Was Wasting Away. .

Our well known druggist, Mr. R. L. Hamilton is very enthusiastic over the delicious cod liver oil preparation which contains no oil. In referring to the matter, said Mr. Hamilton, "We sell many tonics, and we handle all kinds of remedies that claim to be invlgorators and strength crea tors. We do this because we are druggists, and It Is our business to supply the public with what they want." When our advice Is asked, however in regard to a tonic, body builder or strength creator, we lnvarlbly reco mmend Vlnol, as we know of noth ing that can compare with it. . In Vlnol modern science has given us all of the tonic, body-bulldlngand curative properties of that famous old remedy cod liver oil, actually ta ken from fresh cod's livers, without a drop of the obnoxious and system clogging greas which characterizes old fashioned cod liver oil and emul sions, and which has proved such a drawback. Vlnol is not a patent medicine, as the label on each bottle tells every thing It contains, therefore you know exactly what you are taking. In the most natural manner It tones up the digestive organs, creates a hearty appetlte.makes rlch.red blood and strengthens every organ In the body to 'do Its work as nature in tended. Our faith In Vlnol Is so strong that we gladly offer to refund the money In every cae where it falls to gl e satisfaction." R. L. Hamilton, Drug gist. Where Marriage Pays. "Married people have the best of It In ocean traveling," said a sea captain, "for they have a stateroom to them Belves. People traveling alone, unless they are willing to pay a good deal ex tra, have to sleep in the same room with strangers, tiu unpleasant thing. "Some of these lone travelers, to se cure privacy, pay extra fare. Others many, nmny others try to secure pri vacy by giving us lies instead of money. "One man will tell the chief steward that he has an Intolerable snore. An other will say he Is subject to epileptic attacks, wherein In the small hours he becomes a shrieking and dangerous maniac. Another will say that in the throes of acute seasickness from the beginning of the voyage to the end he fills the cabin day and night with dis mal noises. "No matter. They all have to share their staterooms with strangers. The only way out of It is to plank down the coin." New York Press. Origin of Bouflrel. Bonfires are a survival of the rites of Baal and Moloch. When Christian ity ruled old ways and customs could be abolished, and so the heathen, still hankering after the ancient deities, but half controlled by pope or bishop, made their bonfires on the eve of St. Peter or St. John. One use of bonfires in the not so far distant past was as a means of disinfection. In his "History of the Plague" Defoe tells of bonfires in Lon don streets. There Is rekson to suppose rthat In kindling such fires there was still a remnant of superstition left. It was In a measure a sacrifice to Baal, As to the excellence of the method of making fires to drive away a plague the benefit would be questionable. Anyhow it may be dwelt upon as the earliest effort made toward cremation, for it was of some slight use when an infected neighborhood caught fire and was reduced to ashes. But, then, the remedy might have been worse than the disease. Measure Your Friends. "Did you ever amuse yourself," asks the London Gentlewoman, "on a wet Sunday afternoon by giving marks of appreciation or the reverse to all your friends and acquaintances? This Is the method we employ: There are five beads (1) looks; (2) manners; (3) ablll ties; (4) merit and (5) 'use' and this fifth item often balances all the rest, for a person may quite likely possess nearly full marks for looks, manners, abilities and merit and yet be of no possible 'use' to oneself, while, vice versa, some person may be of great use, one may fancy their company, or they may have a knack of sympathy, yet be very deficient in manners or merit. The marks range from 0 to 20, and if you are quite conscientious in awarding your marks you will be sur prised to find bow the law of averages comes in and how much the sum total of one individual's marks resembles an' other." Marriage In Korea. There is not much difficulty In marry ing off a daughter in Korea. Where there are defects, such as feeble health, paralysis, deformities, etc., an expert intermediary who knows how to con ceal them is employed. It is her bus! ness to make the girl presentable to the parents of the suitor. As the bride groom does not see the bride until the day of marriage, when it is too late to recoil, he is obliged to make the best of the situation. In . marrying Korean girls are not exempt from contributing to the support of the family. This ap plies to the grande dame as well as the humblest peasant. Ladles of rank who have become impoverished and are obliged to support themselves may earn a livelihood by knitting or rearing silk worms. A Mother's Command. William Brookfield, the English di vine, used to tell this story: "The new bishop of New Zealand In a farewell and pathetic interview with his moth er after his appointment was thus ad dressed by her in such sequence as sobs and tears would permit: I sup pose they will eat you, my dear. I try to think otherwise, but I suppose they will. Well, we will leave it In the hands of Providence. But, if they do, mind, my dear, and disagree with them!'" Propriety and Clotbes. The ladies of Lamu surpass those of all other nations in retiring modesty, for they not only hide their faces, but walk about under a small tent, which requires the assistance of a servant to carry it. It is not surprising to hear that they have a very bad reputation for propriety, for In Africa female re spectability is In inverse ration to the quality of clothes worn. Eliot's "East Africa." .

"Bascom isn't writing as good poetry as be was." "No; more of the poets are getting their stuff copyright ed." The Ornamental One. For the first time in quite a number of years sessions of the senate are be ing presided over by a real, live vice president who has been duly elected to second place in this great nation. Many men who have been busy in the trifling matter of making a living had never missed the vice president. They bad noticed that the government was running along all right, that senators were getting arrested for crooked work and that appropriation bills were being regularly passed, and they had thought that all was well. And so it was. We can run along without a vice president as long as we do not have need for one to take the place of president. The office of vice president is a sort of national vermiform appendix, a nice thing to have about, but one that no body will miss if it isn't in Its place. Wouldn't Disgrace Himself.
