TEN TOWNSHIP. The heavy snowfall of last week is , still giving the boys and girls thrills. ( It was the heaviest, we have had in ] several years and had enough sleet i w’tta it to make sleighing good. And i today (Wednesday) much of it Is still ’ on the ground. 1 * i The people of No. 10 township were i made to feel sad when they heard of i the passing of Mrs. Mack Brown, I which occurred at her home at Flowe’s Store last Wednesday morning. She I lmd been sick of pneumonia and other complications for ten days when she i was relieved of her suffering by death. ■ She was TO years old and was a daugh- 1 ter of the late Rush and Betsy Hud- ] son. of No. 10 township. When in 1 the bloom of young womanhood she was married to Mack Brown and to 1 them were born six sons and three 1 daughters, all of whom survive. She ' was a charter member of Boger Meth- 1 odist Church. The deceased was a woman of quiet ' manner and possessed the fine virtues which make a strong character. As a member of the church she was always ready to do her part, willing to per form some service and no stranger ev- ; er visited her church that she did not I inquire about his entertainment and ; on fete days she wsr always present with a full basket of good eats. In the home -she was a loving wife and devoted mother /icrforming her duties with willing hands seeking from day to day to more firmly fix to more deep ly root those graces and virtues which make Christian character in the lives and hearts of her children. “Aunt” 1 Kate has crossed the bar but her good deeds will long live in the memory of the people of the Flowe’s Store Com munity. Funeral services were conducted by her pastor. Rev. A. G. Loftin, assisted by Rev. E. W. Fox. presiding elder, of the Mount Airy district, and Rev. W. A. Newell, of Mt. Airy. The many floral offerings and the overflowing congregation present at the funeral were worthy tributes of esteem. In terment was made in the graveyard at | the church. H.

Mrs. Turner remained for a longer visit. Reece and Privette Carter had a narrow escape, nothing less than mi raculous, several nights ago when their car was smashed by a fast run ning one on the Charlotte highway near Midland. The driver of the “smasher” made no halt to investigate the damage, so the boys did not get the number. Paul Coley, who is attending the A. and M., College, returned iaftt week to that institution, after spending the Christmas holidays nt home. Saturday as Messrs. J. S. Osborne, A. T.

The boys and girls skated while the ice was hard enough and when it started melting we started snowballing. Mr. Tom Hooks and son, Car], are spending the week-end in Fort Mills, 8. C.

I We can never make the South what it ought to be, wo run never make country life what it ought to bo, until farmers get rid of this idea that their mimic nre not worth feed | ing. A man has got to believe in him self more thau that, must have more respect for himself, more respect for i bis brain and his mind, before he can 'amount to anything. He must be lieve that bis own mind and his chil dren’s minds deserve the best in-' tellectual .food he can find—and plenty of it. He wouldn’t let his children go with two meals a day when they need three. Why then should he compel his children to get along with only an occasional month ly or semi-monthly feast of intellec tual food instead of seeing to it tly»t the best papers to be had comes to his home every week? We ahould all take the best papers we can get. A cheap newspaper filled with stories of suicides nnd murders anil scandals and automobile wrecks and erimfnnl trials; -their advertis ing columns tilled with shameless an nouncements of pntent medicine fak ers and quack doctors—such papers won’t help us nt all. Nor will the cheap monthly story papers with sensational fiction and fortune-telling articles aud fraudulent "free" adver tisements in unlimited number. We should take, our best, local paper, the best farm paper, the best political and church papers, the best magazines, even if they apera that stand for progress, for improvement, and for high ideals. No hard pad fast Tuie can be laid down, but a reasonable minimum can be fixed, and we would say that no mantis doing right by himself or his family if he averages less than a nickel a day or $lB a year for papers, magazines, and books. Fergus Hume, author of 137 de tective novels, mnefe liis first great reputation with "The Mystery of a Hansom Cab,” of which more than half a million copies have been sold. Mr. Hume, curiously enogh. wrote the book not to make money, but a name. He was very anxious to publish some poems he had written, but the pub lishers told him he was not sufficient ly well known—that he must first make a name for himself by writing something more popular. “The Mys tery of the Hansom Cab” was the sequel to this.

Wright. Miss Wright has been i I ———i i jh i “WHEN KARNAK FIXES YOU IIP YOU SURE STAY FIXED” \ Sensational Medicine End ed Charlotte Man’s Stom ; - ach Suffering: Months Ago.—“ And I Haven’t Felt a Sign of It Since,” He Says. “Believe me I have given this Kar nak a real test in my case, and can . tell everybody it does all that’s claimed f for it and more, too,” says F. L. »•. Lindsay, world war veteran and a i» geeident of 1105 N. I’egram St., Char -1 lotte, N. C. * ’ “I tell you indigestion just caused * me all kinds of trouble before I got rid of it by taking Karnak,” con tinues Mr. Lindsay. “Why, I had ■ awfni pains in my stomach after eat- C Ing, bad a sore feeling in my bowels, and jnst felt all out of sorts in every way. I waa in a rundown condition, an invalid for over two years, and has been unable to walk, or help herself in any way, until last Thurs day night at 9 o’clock, at which time she sprang from the bed and went from room to room to awake the family, all the while rejoicing in her recovery. Last Thursday night the family r tired as usual, after attending to the wants of Miss Wright, nnd noth- ♦ my appetite was poor, food didn’t taste right tq me half the time, and I felt kind of ‘down and out.” “A friend told me to try Karnak, and it was just the medicine I needed for my troubles. It began to show a great improvement in me right from the start, and five bottles completely relieved me of that indigestion, sore ness and pains. My appetite came back stronger than ever, and I gained weight, and felt fine as could be. “Now that was several months ago that Karnak fixed me up, and I still feel the good of it and haven't had a sign of my former troubles to re turn on me. When Karnak fixes you up yon sure stay fixed.” Karnak is sold in Concord exclu sively by the Pearl Drug Co.; in Kan napolia by the F. L. Smith Drug Co.; in Mt. Pleasant by the A. W. Moose Drug Co.

It seem that the miracle ! Was not accomplished so suddenly* as i it appears to the family eand to i friends, but according to Miss Wright, is the result and culmina tion of days and months of prayer that has helped her to reach a plane of faith that was perfect in its cure. Miss "Wright, it is reported, is no fanatic, nor does she belong- to strange cull's, but is a member of the Methodist church in her neighbor hood. Since the night of her re , juvination Miss Wright has been doing housework and insisting that she is absolutely normal in health again. Part and Flagg’s Cotton Letter. New York, Jan. 14. —It has been i another lifeless market but although such stabilization may be disappoint ing to the trading element it is prob ably for the best interest of the ; actual trade as a whole to pass through a period of digestion. The chief deterrent for buyers oi the ac tuals has been the spectacle of con tinued easing in prices giving rise I to the hope of securing supplies at Btill lower levels.' Consumption for December was in excess of expectations and the exist ence of a steady market would tend to promote an even larger use of raw material by bringing in larger orders from distributors of goods generally who went over the turn to the year with exceedingly light stocks and in many cases have as yet taken no- steps toward filling require ments for fall trade. The basis in the south remains firm with advices generally indicating a fairly active demand for al grades and no pres sure to sell. There is a feeling that holdings ■ may be offered more freely to se ■ eure funds for next crop prepara tions but that has not as yet de veloped and the financial require ments may be sufficiently modified by redaction in acreage to minimize 1 pressure of the sort. POST AND FLAGG- Brodie Duke- Editor of the Greensboro News: Mr. Harris in the Daily News of j January 3, referring to Dr. Boyd’s book in regard to the early days of Durham, does not mention one very important factor in the history of the Duke tobacco business. That is rodie Duke, oldest son of Washing ton Duke, who, with his father, first started manufacturing smoking Ito-. baceo at his small farm five or six miles in the country from Durham. • They bad for their trademark a black bear and" the motto “Pro Bono Publico” on the label. They made some money and about ouce a week they would bring a load and ship it 1 out. I was working in the railroad depot as telegraph operator. After a time Brodie pulled out from the firm and came to Durham and rent ed an old carriage bouse that had be longed to J. R. Green. He had a floor put in it and used it as his factory, i He had as his trademark the “Duke' of Durham,” am) about the first thing he did was to ship a quantity of his Duke of Durham to the Duke of Durham in England, and soon he began getting orders from dealers in England and his business grew so rapidly that 'his father moved to Durham and they united and soon PAGE THREE put Up a big factory and made both brands. This was before B. N. Duke i and J. B. Duke had much to do with the business. I have not seen Dr- Boyd's book and don't know whether he mentions Brodie Duke or not. Brodie died a number of years ago. C. W. TRICE. Lexington, January 7. Bark Versus Bite. Dearborn Independent. The most diverse opinions exist re garding Mussolini’s rule in Italy. I The operations of the fascists are bit terly attacked on the one hand by persons who know, and highly praised on the other by persons who know. The disposition of outside governments seems to be that Mussolini be allowed to run his course, as if their shrewd conclusion were that such a course I has a certain end. Mussolini him self makes no concealment of his prin ciples. He believes in fojee. He , does not believe in democratic gov , ernment. He believes the old Rom an Empire will become, in part, at least, the heritage of Italy. These are the principles he maintains in public speech. They have a most , grave character, and the fact that they are not gravely regarded indi cates that Europe has taken the measure of the man who utters them. The suggestion that Mussolini is play -1 ing to the Italians may explain much. But the fact that, outside of Russia, such ideals as those expressed haVe - been, since the fall of the Kataer, - quite impotent in the world, Is a more pointed one. It is a rare thing to find a in the eye of a rabbit.
