In Elizabeth City recently there
was a case in which a young men
was trying to prove that he was not
the father of a girl's illegitimate
child by establishing the fact that
she had been promiscuous. Several
other young men testified that they
jhad had immoral relations with ebe
{girl, and that, hence, the paternity
of the child was uncertain. Where-'
I upon, Mrs. Lewis had suit brought'
on charges of prostitution against i

against the girl, and won her case I

j Some Oxford Kidney Sufferers Get
Little Rest Or Comfort.
There is little sleep, little rest, lit- j
tie peace for many a sufferer fiom .
kidney trouble. Life is one contin
ual round of pain. You can't rest at
night when there's kidney backache.
You suffer twinges and "stabs" of
! pain .annoying urinary disorders, ]
, lameness and nervousness. You can't;
; be comfortable at work with darting!
pains and blinding dizzy spells. Neg- i
! lect these ailments and serious {
troubles may follow. Begin using j
Doan's Pills at the first sign of dis- j
order. Thousands have testified to
their merit.
] Proof in Oxford testimony:
Miss Nona Saunders, 20 Mill St.,
Oxford, says: "My back bothered
me, especially during the day. When
' I stood for any length of time, my
j back ached and when I stooped to
! pick up something, a sudden catch
took me through my kidneys. Even at
night I had these aches and pains
and didn't rest well. My kidneys
j were irregular in action, also. Fin
i ally a member of my family told me
to try Doan's Pills and I lost little
itime in getting a box at Hall's Drug
'store. In a. short time, the trouble
i igft and I have been in the best of
health ever since."

simply ask for a kidney remedy—get

Shy Of Washington.
(New York Post.)
Edwin Denby had to go. Public
confidence in him had gone. He has
relieved the Administration of con
siderable embarrassment. However,
as he stepped down and out yester
day his successor had not been chos
en and the President was finding it {
difficult to find a Naval Secretary.
There is much reason for that diffi
culty. Washington has bejcon.e
rather appalling to the man of abb
ity who has no great craving for pub- j
He Hfe. Men are dubious Row
about stepping into the Washington
maelstrom. They share the genera!
disgust of their feiio wAmericans for
much that has gone on and is going
on in Washington.

0 Wonderful^Horse!
^ HORSE, you are a wonderful thing; no buttons to
< ) push, no horn to honk; you start yourself, no clutch
to slip; no spark to miss, re ^ars to strip; no
license-buying every year, with plates ^o screw on front and
rear; no gas bills climbing up each day. stealing the joy of
life away; no speed cops chugging in your rear, yelling
summon^ in your ear. Your inner tubes are aH O. K.,
thank the Lord, they stay that way; your spark plugs never
miss and fuss; your motor never makes us cuss. Your
frame is good for many a miie; your body never changes
style. Your wants are few and easy met; you've something
on the auto yet."
This "Wonderful Horse" and the
celebrated "Chase" Buggy and Surrey
are indespensible to the farmer, for,
although he may own an automobile,
the thing may be out of commission
when he needs it most. They are un
reliable and very expensive, in more
ways than one. Get back to old Dob
bin and the "Chase' Buggy and Sur
rey, then you can lay by in store for a
rainy day. A thing the average man
in country or town cannot do, if he
owns an automobile.
If you are debating the question, as
to whether to buy a buggy or a car
"take a fool's advice" and buy an Ox
ford "Chase Buggy" or Surrey.
