LLT?,.Zr. vI'.AMS STAND. And Civ Strangth By Unity. A CM For Mirchints To Orgaalzs. Tha good merchant of New Bern have resolved that the Merchants Asso ciation shall mean something. They have fully realized the great good that - i . 1 .' . V. ,4 V. tV aaownft IB Vvlilg nKwmytkoiiw w '- tioa as a body. No merchant can af ford to remain out of it We have a membership now of near 40, and feel very much encouraged as each one is very enthusiastic They realize that in "unity there is strength." They . irvj tVot in Kvlv th mpn.hB.nts of North Carolina ean work wonders. To make anything a final success it re quires the co-operation of all concerned The merchants ot wew uern nerewiore have worked too much for their indi vidual good, and not enough for the good of the whole. It has been truly said that a "house divided against itself cannot stand." Just so the merchants of this city di vided against themselves cannot stand. But now the majority of them are working in harmony together, and we trust that every other merchant in our midst will take heed and join the asso ciation at once. There is a national association, made up of State associa tions, and the State associations are maifa on of local ones, hence all the ' nower and the succesi of the whole de pends upon the local associations, and the one in New Bern must contrmuie The merchants of North Carolina re member well "the merchants tax which they in a body got the General Assembly to repeal, and thereby saved themselves last year $73,515.40. This outfit to satisfy any reasonable man that the association is a good thing. The associated railways sought to raise the price on all shipments in less than carload lots which came into North and South Carolina. But again the Merchants Association took the matter in hand and flooded the country with petitions until it succeeded in getting the order revoked. This was a saving to the merchants of $80,000.00. Trading stamD companies, etc. were growing rich at the expense of the re tail trade, the merchants associations branded them a pernicious, and have eliminated such cut-throat schemes from our State. These are only a few of the many ac complishments of the Assaciation. Let every merchant in North Carolina stand by it. The merchants of any town are the controlling power. f If the merchants of New Bern say so. our streets will be macadamized, our sidewalks paved, our town properly lighted; street cars in our midst, and everything will be hust ling. So let them stand together in a body, and wield their influence for the good of the town of Gaston. The credit system in New Bern has been greatly abused. The slow to pay and dishonest owe in this town about a half-million dollars. Something must be done, or the merchants will be force into nothingness. This association pro poses to make known to its members each individual comprising those classes and especially the "dead beats. The "dead beats" have become a nuisance, and the merchants have realized that the man who fails to pro vide for his own house, is worse than an infideL They would do well to put this sign up, "In God we trust; other people pay cash." It is an ordinary thing to. find three or four bills against the same party in favor of different merchants. They run from one to ten. It looks like dis honesty when a man gets in debt to you, and then goes elsewhere, and to on, until he has taken in the town. ' At our next meeting we will read out the names of some of the most promi nent "dead beats" in town. "Honesty is the best policy," and it is a part of our moral duty to bring to justice those who refuse to pay their debts. Let the merchants be united in a body and stand together for good. Clerks, carpenters, printers, etc, have their unions, and unless the merchants look to their interest it wll be unpro tected. In a short time we hope to rate every customer and in so doing the credit system will be elevated. If the merchants will stand firmly together they can make their own laws and the homestead and the personal property exemption will do the dishon est man no good. Let every merchant in town attend our next meeting on Tuesday the 23rd inst, 8 p. m. at my office. D. E. HENDERSON, Secty and Atty. ...

"rhe intrinsic merit of this new cod liver oil preparation, Vinol," said Mr. Duffy is beginning to be realized by the people of New Bern. Of course in mj position as a druggist, I have seen in numerable medicines and proprietary articles introduced, but never in my long experience have I ever known or heard of a medicine that would produce more beneficial resnlts than VinoL "I attribute this to the fact that Vinol contains in a concentrated form all the medicinal elements contained in cod liver oil, actually taken from fresh cods' livers, but without a drop of oil nr oraaaa to nauseate and upset the stomach, and it contains no sickening drucra. . "A prominent physical! writes: 'Vinol is the most valuable preparation of cod liver oil known to medicine. it is untold value to create strength and build up the general system for old peo pie. weak women and children, and it has no equal for hard colds, bronchial and all tuns' affections." "There are hundreds of people right here in New Bern who can testily mat there is nothing equal to Vinol, make rich, red blood, to increase' the appetite, cure stomach troubles, give strength and renewed vitality to tne acred, build up the run-down, tired and debilitated, make the weak strong, cure chronic, coughs, colds and build up the convalescent.

The parish house of Christ Church is rapidly approaching completion and the structure will be ready for use within a few weeks. Carpenters are busy with the' construction and each day something has been accomplished that shows the fulfilment of the architect's plans. 1 The building is not only a convenient adjunct to the church but the present conditions are such that it is a necessi ty. The affairs of the church have been greatly hindered on account of the fact that there was no suitable pUce to hold the subsidiary meeting and the result was that the almost con stant usage of the church was becom ing apparent in many ways. The need of a Sunday School room and of a small room for committee meetings and for the minor affairs of the parish was also becoming apparent The building of the parish house began some time ago and after a short cessation of work, added interest in the matter has caused the project to be finished. The building is large, convenient and admirably constructed for its purposes. Down stairs the room will be used for Sunday School and various religious meetings. Seating capacity -will , be made for 250 persons; a new pattern of assembly chairs will be used. Up stairs the room will be used for entertainments and other social occa sions. A gymnasium with all modern appurtenances including several kinds of baths will be instituted.: This fea ture will be available to ladies as well as gentlemen,' as there will be classes which all can join. ; A reading room will also be a part of this arrangement and it is the design of the church to make the place pleasant and enjoyable at all times. It is ex pected that the room will be open every day. This plan under contempla tion is being realized and all details will be made in due time Worry is the mother of sick, nervous and troubled mentality, upsets, the en tire physical system. - The body is a net-work of nerves.

A SERIOUS LCSS BY FIRE Throe Dwelling Noutot ! Rlvtrdilo 0t- trojrod. Los $1,000. Saturday night a store building owned by John Franks and occupied by Clif ton Simpson at Riverdale, located near the railroad, was destroyed by fire. The-household goods were also burned. Two houses occupied as dwellings were burned at the same time, but fortu nately the occupants were able- to get most of their furniture away. The damage on the F ranks building was $500 and on the other two houses were $250 each. The fire was caused by a defective chimney in the Franks building and the . wind carried the flames to the other houses. There was no insurance. All houses were occupied by colored people": j " -; SHORT PASSING EVENTS.

Taylor has placed a fine sign of the Southern Express Co., in front of the office on Craven street The weather of the past few days has been a sickness breeder. The doctors have been busy attending to cases of la grippe and pneumonia. There are quite severe cases in the city. A cargo of rails consisting of 210 tons was received at the Neuse ware house of the A. &. N. C. Co., for the extension of the Dover and Southbound railway.

J vThe village improvement department of the Womans Club will meet at Elks Club rooms this afternoon at half past three o'clock. v Jtwi or Jen Mar ' Dr. Madison C. Peters, in his newly published ""Tho Jews In America," says that "not jewels, but Jews, were the real financial basts of the first ex pedition of Columbus." He continues: "Dr. Kayserllng has,' beyond a doubt, pointed out that two Marranos, or se cret Jews, Luis de Suutangel and Ga briel Sanches tho former the chan cellor of the royal household and comp troller general In Aragon, the latter chief treasurer of Aragon enormously rich merchants, who enjoyed the favor of Ferdinand and Isabella, supplied the funds needed to fit out Columbus' caravels. Isabella did not sell her val uable Jewels to fit out Columbus for his voyage. It is generally supposed that she had already pawned or sold them to defray the expenses of the wars then devastating her country. Dr. Kayserllng clearly shows that the Jewel story Is false and mythical. In the account book of Lula de Santangel and the treasurer, Francisco Tlnelo, extending from 1401 to 14U3, Bantangel Is credited with an Item of 1,400,000 mararedls, which be gave to the blah op of Avlltt for Columbus' expedition."

Thumps la one of the most common diseases and Is invariably 'caused by too much fat and not enough exercise The litter troubled with humps are generally very early pigs, farrowed when the Weather will not permit of sufficient outdoor exercise. Under such conditions the pigs are likely to grow dumpish. ' Stir them up, and you may notice a Jerking behind the shoulders. If thli Is the case they perhaps have tht Ithumpa, and If so they are doomed. To save tho rest of the litter re quires quick work. First shut off thi feed from the sow and if the weather will permit drive the sow and litter nil over tli-J farm two or three times a day. If the weather Is too bad foi this, ' turn the sow out of her pen, fasten the fioor or gate and then fores the pigs to take all the exercise pos sible within the Inclosure. ' - . Some claim that a dose of oil given the sow will scour the pigs and save them from thumps. It might be well to try this remedy also. Farm Prog ress.. ; --s . . .. . Care at Farm Animals. . Farmers are not . averse to liberal feeding nnd are aware of the fact that It is profitable to take good care of the animals, but only experience ean teach how to deal with individuals, as ani mals have their preferences and dis likes of foods, and the kinds of food re quired depend largely upon the season of the year, the condition of the ani mals and the duties performed by each. It has been the belief that almost any farm land can feed lire stock, but In fact, the feeding of the animals is a matter requiring Judgment. : Not only must the qunntlty of the fopd be In creased or reduced according , to cir cumstances, but the quantity should also be considered, : There are occa sions when horses may become too fat especially when Idle, and the cow in full flow Of milk may fall off In her yield unless provided with foods rich In all the elements ftecessary for her purpose. Philadelphia Record. ! Fight the Hoar Lice. . If your hog have lice they will not thrive. Make up your mind to that at tho start ' You must clean the pens and use a good dip or you will be wasting feed every day. Lice lessen the . quality of the animal to a great extent, and It Is of vitnl Importance to have your boss free from the same. There Is probably nothing that Is so dUUcult to Attain as to keep the hogs perfectly free from lice, because the nits and eggs nro carried Jft the bed ding and in the cracks of the pen, and the chnuces are so great, for reinfec tion that It Is a source of considerable annoyance to' the breeder to keep bis hogs free from the same. Dut breed ers who nro In a position to keep their hogs free from -this pest can testify that their hogs put on greater gains and thrive" better, Therefore they fee! satisfied that the extra work entailed to keep the herd clean Is money and time well seput. A Good Object Lesson. Professor Ilaeeker of the Minnesota station says that they had some cows that produced a pound of butter foi 7 cents, while others In the herd and on the same feed, care and manage ment cost 10 aud 17 cents per pound of butter produced. . This might be called a good object lesson. One who cannot be Influenced to try. for better cows in his herd by sueh a wide mar gin of difference Is certainly' a pretty stolid kind of Individual ; And yet there are scores of dairy herds mad up in part Of these unprofitable cows. Farmers Advocate. Dalrr Rotes. One seldom sees tho market over stocked with good, clean and whole some country butter. t h ; l'ure water Is an absolute necessity in the dairy, but not for the purpose of thinning the milk. - . '. '. A frightened or uncomfortable cow will give poar milk. - . " ' 1'lcuty of sunlight admitted into the dairy stables during the winter, an abundance of fresh air and an accurate system of ventilation are the best pre ventives of tuberculosis in the dairy herd.'. , - .- Clover on the Farm. Clover Bhould be sown liberally on every farm for many reasons. It makes the best feed, and the manure from it Is rich. Then, as all know, it Improves the land, which should be the first aim of every farmer. ,; Whatever sys tem of rotation you follow, always have clover In It No man Is too poor to sow clover, and you should not get this idea. . Feeding Broad Mares. In American Cultivator E. J. Water stripe has the following to say about feed of brood mares In winter: "I like to feed tho brood mures on oats during the winter. I believe It tones them up Just to stand what Is coming, for the next spring they will bnve to raise a colt aud very likely be required to do a lot of hard work besides." . A Tour ot the Stable. Borne Csrk, rainy day about noon walk along the slublcK nnd see where It Is darkest. Thus you will find out whero to put In a window or two. And fix any sagging door. Nail some strips over knot holes or cracks, and where there arc hinges or fasteners off get ont tb tool box and repair them. Farm Journal.
