DEMOCRATIC POST3IASTER
HAVE A FIGHTING CHANCE
If They Can Get Two Other Demo
crats To Stand the Examination.
Red Buck Bryant, Washington
correspondent of the Charlotte Ob
server says: "North Carolina demo
crats now holding postoffice jobs can
give the aspiring republicans a run
for their money. If they can get
two other democrats io stand the ex
amination and odtrank republican
applicants they will be certified, and
one of the three must be appointed.
If the postmaster is the only demo
crat to stand, he will be ousted, for
three eligibles must be certified for
the postmaster general to pick a
winner from.
"Postmaster can serve out their
four years under the Harding ex
ecutive order relating to first, sec
ond and third class appointments
No one will be thrown out without
"cause," but those in must walk the
chalk line, lest somebody file charg
es against them. Any little irregu
larity may bring about a vacancy."
Wisdom of the Bankers.
(Richmond Times-Dispatch.)
Resolutions adopted at the final
session of the annual meeting of the
executive council of the American
Bankers' Association, Show a com
prehension of public needs that is a
splendid tribute to the wisdom which
marked its deliberations. Among
commendable resolutions adopted
were those opposing Government
ownership and operation of rail
roads, approving American represen
tation on the Supreme Council and
Reparations Commission, ... opposing
further issuance of tax securities, ap
proving the budget system for hand
ling Government finances, and sug
gesting the need for bringing into
operation at the earliest possible
moment financing machinery for the
extension of long-time credit to re
store foreign credit.

Real Power of Hospital's Home Treatment Shown fey Results in Chronic
Disorders of Stomach, Liver and Kidneys,
As a result of many years of
study, a machine has been developed
in Lyon, France, to make raised em
broidery in gold and silver. The
stitch is a copy of an ancient form of
embroidery and gives an impression
of handwork. The machine uses the
metallic thread. .
' -A London man placed a plum
pudding in a tin box embedded in a
sack of lime. Tying a rope to it he
lowered the sack ten feet below the
surface of the Thames. When rais
ed to the surface at the expiration of
two hours the pudding was found to,
be cooked thoroughly. On contact
with the water the lime slacked,
causing sufficient heat to cook the
pudding. I
Three Cases Typical of Scores of Others Reported at Hospital from points
Where Sanux is Now Being Distributed
Perhaps the most striking evidence
of the remarkable power of the pre
scription now known as Sanux, which
was used at the United States Med-ico-Chemi
Hospital for indigestion,
dyspepsia, constipation, torpid liv
er and stomach complaints arising
from stomach, liver and kidney trou
bles, is found in the speedy manner
in which chronic, long standing dis
orders respond to the treatment.
A great many of those who re
ceived the treatment at the hospital
during the past several years were
suffering from severe and complicat
ed troubles, and it was the seeming
ly miraculous recoveries in many of
these cases which created so much
comment and caused the fame of the
medicine to become widespread.
Thus it was that the demand for
the prescription became so great that
the directors of the hospital decided
to offer it to the public for home
treatment.
The following statements which
have recently been reported to the
hospital are typical of scores of cases
in which Sanux has promptly reliev
ed disorders of long standing, in
many cases after all other means had
failed.
R. R. 3Ian Is Relieved
After Long Suffering
Vinton, Va. "I suffered for years
with chronic indigestion," says Mr.
S. E. Settle, a well-known railroad
man of Vinton. "I had headaches
all the time, was nervous and could
hardly sleep at night. Food soured
in my stomach and didn't seem to do
me any good and I lost flesh and got
in a terrible run-down condition. I
tried many medicines, but nothing
seemed to do me any good.
"Then I heard about Sanux and
began taking it I am now on my
second bottle, and it has done me a
lot of good. My digestion is better,
I am not troubled with headaches
any more, I sleep better and feel
stronger and have more energy. My
son is troubled with constipation and
I've started him taking Sanux also,
and it has helped him. Sanux has
helped me after other medicines had
failed, and I am glad to recommend
it to others who suffer as I did."
is improving, and I sleep fine .rest
ing better than in many years. Those
smothering spells have ceased en
tirely, and I am relieved for once of
constipation troubles. It has brought
such quick relief I know I am now on
the road to good health. I gladly
endorse Sanux."
Seeds from the chaulmoogra
tree of India, the oil of which forms
the base of a treatment successfully
used in treating leprosy, have been
received in the Philippine Islands uy
the Bureau of Science. An attempt
will be made to grow the tree for
this purpose.

smother, but today I'm looking bet

N. C. Farmer Relieved
Of Three Years1 Suffering
Pelham, N. C- Mr. R. H. Jones, a
well-known farmer living on Route
2, near this place, has been the vic
tim! of a severe case of indigestion
for three years, and what Sanux ac
complished in his case testifies to the
remarkable power of this great Hos
pital Home Treatment to relieve dis
orders of a chronic nature.
A"I had suffered from indigestion
for three years," says Mr. Jones,
when I heard of what Sanux was do
ing for others, so I decided to give it
a trial. I have taken three bottles
of the medicise and it has done me
lots of good. My indigestion has
been relieved and I feel stronger and
better in every way. I gladly recom
mend Sanux as a fine tonic."
Sanux aids digestion, acts as a
mild laxative, gently cleansing the
system of impurities, stimulates a
natural, healthy appetite and builds
up and strengthens the whole sys
tem. Sanux is sold by most of the lead
ing druggists in this section in eight
ounce bottles. Take a bottle or two
home with you today and commence
this splendid "Hospital Home Treat
ment" at once. Do not accept a sub
stitute, or something offered as "just
as good."
If no druggist in your section has
it in stock, the hospital will supply
you direct on receipt of price $1.25.

The prison population of the
Middle and Southwestern United Sta
tes decreased 12.4 per cent in the
last six pears. This falling off in
prison population of this section is
equivalent to more than the combin
ed prisoners of Kansas, Iowa, Wis
consin and North and South Dakota
in 1914.
Photographs by the Air Route.
(Arkansas Gazette.)
A group photograph of twenty-six
people, six women and twenty men,
was dropped into the yard of M. E.
McCowan's home at DeRoche last
Friday when tornadoes were tearing
up a part of Arkansas. Mr. McCow
an thinks the photograph was
brought a long distance by the wind.
The photograph was made in Due

tograph was lifted by a tornado high
in the air and carried from Hot
Springs to Searcy before it floated
to the ground.

MAIN STREET
(Charlotte Observer)
The tragedies precipitated on
Greensboro and the surrounding
community through the agency of
an automobile loaded with whiskey,
cannot fall to impress upon the
minds of the people the extent to
which the law-breakers are to rule
in North Carolina. The occurrences
I of Wednesday afternoon were of the
kind that might have been consider
ed extremely improbable, if not im
possible, in any other than an Out
law community and among an unciv
ilized people. The scenes were enact
ed in no isolated community nor
were they under cover of darkness.
With defiant boldness, three men in
charge of a large quantity of contra
band product drove into the center
of a busy city, and when a police of
ficer attempted to place them under
arrest, he was shot down in his
tracks. Then the outlaws bolted in
to the country, and no military tank
would have proved a greater menace
to the traffic that might have been
encountered. The furiously reckless
party was bent on escape and they
would have fired on anything in the
way as quickly as they would have
run it down.
The Greensboro occurrence was
the most impressive example of the
spirit of defiance of the laws that has
developed v in this State in many
years, if, indeed, it has a parallel. It
affords the best argument yet devel
oyed for an abandonment of the fine
in dealing with liquor cases, and a
fixed and an immovable determina-
Ktion on part of the courts to adopt
md adhere to the prison sentence.

See how easily you can cover up old clingy crack
ed walls and build-in permanently new rooms all
over the house all without muss or litter.
Quite a contrast between doing your repairing
and remodeling with clean panels of Beaver
Board than trying to get a permanent job with
. messy lath and plaster.
Now you can use Beaver Board and put it right on top
of the old walls and ceilings. With Beaver Board you can
make usable rooms out of useless spaces in attic and basement.
Then, too, it is as good for the new home as it is for re
modeling the old one.
Beaver Board is a new from of lumber. It's built up
from the strong clean fibre of the spruce tree into large
sturdy panels of knodess, crackless manufactured lumber.
It's moisture-proofed by a patent Sealtite process thav
prevents warping. Beaver Board will last as long as th( -building.
You owe it to your home, old of new, to see us aboi
