The wonderful sale on this preparation since first in troduced in Oxford, and the remarks ble results following its use has made J. G. Hall such enthusiastic believer in the great value of Sam ose that he gives his personal guar antee to refund the money if Sam ose will not make thin peopie fat and restore strength and health to those who use it. This is a strong guarantee but J. G. Hall has seen so many of his customers who a few weeks ago looked like walking skeletons be come plump and well, solely througt the use of Samose that he feels he cannot say too much to induce peo ple to try it. This marvelous flesh-forming food is assimilated as soon as it is ta ken into the stomach makes good rich blood, tones up the weakened system, helps to assimilate the food and makes the user plump, well and rosy. The Difference. Some people so live as to be worth nothing to the home society, their country, or the world. They are like those of whom young speakes in his "Night Thoughts". Some, when they "die, die all." They ieave ur:bing of love or ser vice behind them to blses mankind. Others so live, that through all their lives they bless mankind whenever, and wherever they come in contact with them. Of the good man it can be said as it was of Abel: He being dead yet speaketh; Paul has been dead for centuries, but he lives on, and will live on through all time, in his example of love and devotion to Christ; and in his teachings, love and sacrafi ces i'or the good of mankind. Some people love with an ar dent undying love, the house of God. They find sacred joy, and spiritual blessings in attend ing prayer meetings, Sabbath sch ools, and the preaching of the Word. They can say with David; "How aimable are thy tabernacles, O Lord of hosts. My soul longeth yea even fainth for the courts of the Lord s House, 1 was glad when they said unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord." They can say with the part "I love thy king dom Lord, the house of Thine a bode, The church, our blest Redeem er saved with His own precious blood. But thousands of people,and among them many professed chris tians, have but little or no love for God's house. They would rather lounge around at home, or go visit ing or attend base-ball games, car parties, pleasure parties, dances, than to go to prayer meeting, Sab bath school or preaching. They are "Lovers of pleasure, more than lovers or God. They know the joy of earthly pleasures, but are stran gers to the higher, sweeter pleasur es of Christianity. They have no personal experience of the sweet sen timent of the part; "To spend one day with Thee Exceeds a thous and days of mirth, "on earth. Some people give nothing, or perhaps a little grudgingly to support chris tians and charitable institutions,but give much of their time and a large part of their earnings, to uphold picture shows, base ball games,theatres and such like things. But there are others, who never speasl 0e moment of time, or one cent of money oft these, unprofita ble things; but they give liberally of their time, money, and work, to build up schools, churches, asylu ms, and other benevolent institu tions. Whose money does the most good; who gets the most real hap, piness from their "vyork? Some men spena a IfSe part their earnings for whiskey. They order it from other states, or sneak around and get it from "blind tigers." They do not need it. It does them no good, but harm. It takes money they need for food, clothing and household comforts. It is making drunkards of them; and is digging for them a drunkards grave, and sending them to a drunk ards hell. Others do not spend one cent for whiskey, or drink one drop either in health or sickness. What a difference between drink ers, drunkards, and tetollars; Which would you rather be? Some spend all their time seek ing to gain and enjoy the things of this world. Others spend their time seeking to prepare themselves for a home in heaven, when done with this world. People differ widely in life, in death, and through eternity. In life some live for God, others to the devil. In death christians go rejoicing home to glory, but sin ners will be driven away into eter nal punishment in hell, Through Eternity, ihe righteous will rejoice with God and the redeemed in heaven, but the wicked will suffer the eternal torment of hell. "These the wicked shall go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into life eternal." Mat. 25; 4G. J. A. Stradley. o Horner Military School will be represented by a declaimer in the Inter State High School Comparative debate at Durham November 23rd." m . Remember Mr. tax payer, you have only until the 10 of November belcre you are forced to pay your taxes. Sheriff Wheeler says pay your taxes by Nov. 8th, 1910. In Memory of Williard Z. Diekerson. On October 14, 1910, the angel of death visited the hospital at Kin ston, and claimed for its victim Willard Z. Dickerson who was in the prime of life, being 33 years old. He was a great worker in his Master's cause. He leaves a loving wife and one little child, an aged father and mother; six brothers and two sisters, and a host of re latives and friends to mourn his departure. We had met this dear relative and learned to love him. In his community he was looked up on as a leader in church services and was a highly respected citi zen. His home life was happy and beautiful and his good disposition won him many friends. Loved ones think of him not as dead but as one being in that ce lestial realms. He can never cheer us again. May you each day make preparations for the great reunion where there will be no more good byes. Weep not dear friends you too will be called home to join with (lonT rpintivps and friends that have passed over the chilly waters. May you become reconciled to the death of this dear relative. R. A Delightful Entertainment. The Music meeting of the Oxford Improvement Society was held at the home of Mrs. A. H. Powell, Tues day afternoon, the 18th, of October.

After a thorough discussion about the plans and arrangements for the Chrysanthemum Show, the Society adjourned to meet again Tuesday afternoon the 17th of November, at four o'clock in thft rnnms nf tho Commercial Club. MARRIAGE OF A FOllMKK OX FORD MAX. (Durham Sun). The most notable social event of the season was the wedding on Wed ay night at Epiphany church of Miss Margaret Cade, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Taylor Cade, of this place, and Mr. L. P. Landis of Durham, N. C. The church was ex quisitely decorated. Mrs. Charles Hall of Galveston, sister of the bride, was matron of honor, Mis3 ELel Sharp, bridesmaid; Miss Au- ust us Landis, sister of the groom, maid of honor. The ushers were Messrs Charles Hall, John and Rob ert Taylor and Harold Henshaw. A reception at the home of the bride followed the ceremony. Mr. and Mrs. andis left on midnight train for North Carolina. They will be at home at New Iberia after Oct. 25. WANTED A white man to take charge and manage a farm must give good reference and be either single or have small family; also would like to have middle aged la dy that would like to have a good home with light house keeping to look after; good reference requir ed. Address P. O. Box, 144 Oxford, N. C. Oct. 28, 4t. GET OUT THE DEMOCRATIC VOTE. Major Stecfmail i very popular i man in these parts if one may judge by the vociferous applause that breaks forth at every mention of hia name. His willingness to stand up and be counted for what he belie ves in, whether others agree with, him 6r hot, counts largely in his favor. His gallantry, his cheerful ness, his chivalry towards an op ponent and his willingness always to lii'- others who m.py not l?,v.e so good a f h&hefc as he believes Iihu self to have all 50 towarn making" Major Stedman a likable Hum. He has proven himself an excellent campaigner; he is fearless in ex plaining his own position and in ex posing what he believes to be the false position of others; and he is determined to let the people know exactly what they may expect of him should he be elected, which, we believe, he surely will be. We are not well informed as to the other parts of the fifth district but in this particular neck of the woods it is safe to predict an over whelming majority for Major Sted man in the election to be held No vember 8. While we believe Major Stedman is going to be the next congress man we also believe we also voice the sentiments of Major Stedman in advising all democrats to be vare of over confidence. J( is a real danger and the Democratic party cannot affrrd to let the opportunity go by to give a stinging rebuke -to the republican party the party that dared put Marion Butler in the leadership. See that every Democrat is prop erly registered and then see that every democrat votes the straight democratic ticket. That is the way to give the rebuke to the re publican party that it so richly de serves.
