Sold with the Recall guarantee. 8 J. G. HAIi, Oxford, N. C. POINTED PARAGRAPHS. From the Chicago News. Morality does a lot of unneces sary parading in public Vocal teachers are always howl ing about their work. Some people grumble about every thing, be it right or wrong. Many a man grasps an opportunity to make a fool of himself. Consider the silent man and the reputation he has for being wise. And the more advice you give the more likely you are to get in bad. A girl's idea of a hero is a young man who asks her father foi her hand Luck seems to have a mania for calling on people who are not ex pecting it. Lots of people pose as peacemak ers because of the opportunity it affords them to butt in. It's a pity that the average detec tive can't locate criminals as easily as he can find clews. As a matter of fact, a young man is more apt to kiss a gril against her mother's will than against her own. VERDICT OF JURY 12 MEN. What they Had to Say About John son's Chill and Fever Tonic.

From the New York Herald American, books which delighted the youth of the last generation in this country are under the ban in New York, coincident with the action taken against certain Amer ican volumes in London. It is now possible for boys who apply to the children's department of the circulation branches of the New York Library to obtain the Ol iver Optic books, nor yet, the nar ratives by Horatio . Alger, Jr., nor the Ralph Hazard books, from the pen of John T. Trobridge. The boys of the Oliver Optic type ac complished prodigies of valor, in addition to which:1 they reproved their elders. Alger has been sup planted by Ralph Henry Barbour as a maker of hero tales for the young. As to the books which have been barred from the committee on edu cation, of the London common coun cil, none of them can be found in any public library in this city. "From Log Cabin to White House" and"From the Tanyard to the White House" could not be issued here as intellectual pabulum for the young, on the ground that they are too diffuse in their style. Some of the1 references to Lincoln in the "log cabin" life refer to him fami liarly as "Abe," and represent him as standing on a stump when a boy delivering a sermon. Dr. John S- Billings, director of the New York Public Library, said that he could hot understand why such works as "Korea and Her Philip Sidney" should be regarded as containing passage unfit for children to read. Dr. Billings evi dently is an admirer of the gallant Sir Philip, for in the library is a life of the English courtier by J Addington Symonds, which Dr. Bill ings himself represented to the institution- The character of Sir Philip has been much admired by some writers. Mrs. Andrew Lang has been writ ing a series of hero and heroine books, and such compilations ae known in England, although the English boy is not stirred as much, by the force of example as is his brother on this side of the water. No objection is made here to the life of Sir Isaac Newton nor to Macaulay's "Essay on Lord Clive-" The story of Sir Isaac and te ap ple is well known here, and there are several lives of Lord Clive, which are more or less in demand. "The story of the Fox," also un der the ban, is not issued to the young in this country, ard no li brarian could be found who had any record of it- The youth of the country may find Macaulay's essay on Lord Clive a little long and dif ficult, but they take an interest in his romantic character. The biography which is in the most demand "in New York among the boys is that of Lincoln, while Washingtons stands second in their favor. All books issued to the young person at the branches of the public library must pass a rig id censorship before they are plac ed on the shelves. SOLD HIS SWORD FOR $1 Kaitian General Then Adopted Su garcane as Emblem of Authority From the New York Tribune. Passengers arriving there front Haiti on the Hamburg-American steamship Albingia declared that Port au Prince and other cities on the island were in a state of disorganization akin to revolution. It was the belief of many that un less President Simon takes some drastic action in dealing with the situation many lives will be need lessly sacrificed. According to W A- Placer, an electrical engineer, of London, who had been on the is- land for six weeks, the city of Port au Prince is an exceptionally dan-r gerous place for any person wh values his life. "There are only about 90,000 per song in Port au Prince," said Mr Placer, "and there is more noise in' that town 'than there is in New; York. The city is filthy, and the pig seems to be the household pet. There are hasty trials of offenders during the day, and the victims are sometimes buried when alive and unconscious- Fresh graves may be seen every day in the ceme tery, but no one knows who has been buried until the identity of the victims becomes known through their absence form customary ! haunts. "The soldiers are supposed to 12 cents a week, tut they seldom get their allowance, and depend al most wholly upon foraging for ex istence. Organization seems to have disappeared. I saw a geareal drill- ! ing six men with a sword. Yheii I offered him $1 for the sword he sold it eagerly and continued his drilling," substituting a piece - of sugarcane for the sword." Among the Albingai's passengers was Robert Hertzberg, chancellor of the German legation at Port au Prince. He was taken ill about a month ago, and because of the disturbance was unable to find a physician capable of treating him Becoming worse, he sought the help of a native physician, but after a few days the Haitian doc tor disappeared. Mr- Hertzberg sent a servant in search of the doc tor and found that he had been put in prison. On learning this the; chancellor came to this city fofi treatment. Ghost Wants Pact Kept. Evelyn Sutcliffe,20 years old, who claims she and Helen Gray, her late chum, had an unbreakable death, pact, made her second attempt at suicide. Miss Gray died three weeks ag"o- The night of her funeral Misa Sutclif f e . took an overdose of laud anum. Since then she has been tell; ing her friends that Miss Gray's ghost has come to her almost night ly, telling her to join her in the spirit land. Miss Sutcliffe took another dose, that almost cost her life, her salva tion being her mother's early discov ery and a doctor with a stomach! pump. .i
