Winter Nights A Suggestion.

efforts to light on some means of whil

the future and who is ready and will

days to the best advantage in a way
that will add something to their equip

A Great Compliment.
The Hon. A. L. Brooks made the
last speech of the campaign in Greens
boro, North Carolina, and it may be
interesting to his friends to read the
statement which is true, that more peo
ple turned out to hear him than were
out at any other speaking, and John
Sharpe Williams and the State's gov
ernor had spoken. And Brooks en
tertained his audience gave them
their nionej''s worth in wit and wisdom
and oratory and when he completed
his talk which was an hour and a half
long more people were listening than
when he started to speak. Brooks has
the art of campaigning down fine and
he is a rising star. Everything.
Child Bride is Sent Home.
Raleigh correspondent of Charlotte
Observer of November 16th says: To
day the little girl-bride, Amanday, who
is evidently but little over 18 years of
age, was sent to her mother, whose
home is at Ty-Ty, Ga., the Sunshiners
having raised the money to pay the
railway fare. The little creature was
deserted by her boy-husband,who seems
to have been but a little over 16 years
of age in this city, about two months
ago and has been most kindly cared
for since by new friends who became
greatly attached to her. Her case is a
very sad one. Little and young as
she is, yet it seems that she was regu
larly married by a minister in the
house of her mother to a boy who at
tended school and who, it is said, lives
in Boston. She saTs that he claimed
to have been bora in Cuba. She has.
never heard a word from him since he
left her. He told her she would never
see or hear from him again and that
he was going to Richmond. The child
is so small that her head hardly comes
to the shoulders of an average girl of
12 years of age.

My
Burning of Mr. Hesters House.
On the night of the 12th of Novem
ber my house and nearly all of the
contents was destroyed and no insur
ance. It was purely an accident. I was
careful with fire about my premises
always. The cause must have been
some defect about the fire place up
stairs, as that was where it caught,
and it had such advantage of the help
we had that it was impossible to save
anything except the contents of two
rooms on the lower floors. It was
about 10 o'clock at night. The house
had been newly painted, and to build
such a house now would cost nearly
2,000. The neighbors and friends
have and are responding to my suf-'
fering in every way.
I have moved in a good large house
at Creedmoor, Mrs. Kate Freeman the
widow of the late E. E. Freeman de
ceased. I lived one mile east of Creed
moor, and have been and at present a
rural mail carrier on Route 1 from
Creedmoor and travel through a part
of Wake county every day.
The patrons both white and colored
have come to my relief grand and no
ble. It has been and is very discour
aging and but for the sympathy of the
people at once, in my distress, I could
not have carried the mail another day.
A poor widow woman on my mail route
come out and said the widows mite was
small, but she remembered my father,
the late Rev. B. B. Hester, and the
love she had for him and me too, she
gave me a contribution which I call
great. I carried Insurance for several
voars in the Granville Home Branch
but thinking there was so little danger
because I was careful about my house
with fire let it drop.
Miss Marj- Hardy was boarding
with us and was one of the teachers at
the Creedmoor Graded School, and
everything she had in her room was
burned,and she and my wife and daugh
ters were the principal ones that carried
out what things we saved. The neigh
bors who found it out came and done
faithful work.
BENJAMIN L. HESTER.
Taken as directed it becomes the great
est curative agent for the relief of suffering
humanity ever devised. Such is Hollister's

Fairbrother on Dope.
There was no glory in his taking
off no part of his dissipated life that
c.ills for emulation and yet today in
the state which was his home, we dare
say that at least ten thousand men and
women are following in his footsteps
becoming drugged and doned arjvi jm
beeile and murder Is not to be re
garded as Impossible, to. am one of
them when the drug finally hColdfj full
and undisputed sway.
The. .Matthews case while fresh in
the ' minds of the people should be
made the text of a thousand sermons;
if should be used by honest reformers
when the legislature meet aud the
physicians who are dope tieiids, and
there are many of them, should be de
nied the right to practice their profes
sion. The sale of dope should be more
carefully guarded the mothers and
fathers should be more fully informed
concerning its insidious aud irresistable
charms.

I Ask Your Neighbor
How she Likes her
Stieff sPiano.
We are quite sure there
is at least one Stieff in
your neighborhood, and
we know that all who buy
the "Piano with the sweet
tone" not only get the best
but save the dealer's
profit.
Stieff Pianos are sold only from
maker to user. None sold to
dealers. This a big saving for
you. and when you also get the
best piano, is it not wortli inves
tigating? Drop us a card and
let us tell you all about our easy
bnying plan; the money we save
you and the friends we have in
the "Old North State."
