BUSINESS UNDERTAKING is entirely beyond the possibility of a reverse and for this reason the man who wishes to feel independent of his busi ness should maintain a separate account as protection. There is no better way of obtaining this protection than by opening an account in the Savings Department of this bank at 4 per cent interest. It's a good investment because your money besides earning liberal rates of interest, is always available. nBtfsaSfi eanIVTaeaffierNeaaaVeaaa!r9 Hh HORSE INSURANCE PAYS. New Bern, N.

Whitehead Klu'tz has the ol lowing tosiy in reference to what Kw an county Recorder's Court has dor.t : "'I take pleasure in saying that the Rowan county Court hrs worked veil and has giyen general satisfaction. Be fore the court was established our civil docket was one of the most congested in the State, and it took two years af ter isBu ng summons to reach a case for trial (Craven county is in the same lix todiy). We have two weeks of stpr sior court, the first week b ing for ' i al of criminal and the second week civil cases, and the criminal cases frequent ly took practically the entire two weeks and court would adjourn at times with ont reaching the civil cises at all. Now we get through with the criminal dock et always the fiist week and frequently in three days or even less. The civil ac tion can be tried in a year at most, and we arc shortening the time constantly. I will add that figures cannot adequate ly express the economy affected by the success of this court. Th y cannot tell tne story of the saving in j ul tc s where a defendant getH an immediate trial iiisttid of staying in jail 3 months, for instance, nor can they expreps Ihe conveni.'i c i to witnesses of getting a case off in a day instead of wait ing around a week, as was often the case before. The fines collected by this court have been on the whole latter than those collided by the Supeiior Court in like esses. It has alw ys seemed to me these courts with thair large jurisdiction, should be con tv courts, with records kept in the cnjrt house, and likewise that they should be uniform throughout the State." CLEMENT MANLY'S ENDORS, -MENT. Mr. CJement Manly, of Winston- a- lem, who for many years a resident of I New Bern, wriles as follows in reg; -d to what the Recorder's Court has Ui le for Forsyth county: "I presume it is unnecessary to f .y anything in regard to its eslablishnu it as a great help in the administration of justice. Formerly such courts sf re likely unnecessary, but now with r increased population in towns, it is solutely essential that men have a sp -dy hearing of their cases, and tint e made to suffer for the charge for ; y length of time without trial. A a great saving in a financial way, it is proved quite remarkable. The com. i the creature ot the city, and lheref e it takes from the county the expense ;f trying a large preponderance of crin '.; by the employment of a solicitor, to whrm we pay $5i) or $75 per month, i id the charging of a-$2 solicitor fee in each c tee, the receipts have paid t o entire expenses of the court and police force, and its results also show that toe fines going to the school fund under ihe constitutional provisions have not been decreased. So in every respect, it has proved quite a good thing. The Judse and Solicitor of the Court are good law yers and are clean, upright fellows, aid have the confidence of the community, and the Court has the confidence of t ho ! community." WHO IS PROMOTER OF RECORD ER'S COURT? For some reason the "editorial col umns" of the afternoon paper has for some time made an attack upon the lawyers of New Bern in reference to the establishment of the Recorder's Court, especially the young lawyer?. They have stated from time to time that the movement to establish a Re corder's Court originated with the law yers and was simply gotten up to give one of them a job. The last Board of County Commiss ioners, in its report to the board of magistrates, recommended the estab lishment ot a Recorder's C iurt. Does -he mean to charge that these honora ble men made this recommendation for the purpose only to give 'somebody" a job ? The last grand jury, of which Mr. William B. Blades was foreman, recm mended the establishment of a Recor der's Court, stating that they belle' ed it would save the tax payers money. Does he mean to charge that these hon orable gentlemen made this recommen dation for the purpose on'y of giv: g "someliody" n job? The October gn nd jury, of which Mr. O II Perry as foreman, made the recommendation that a Recorder's Court be establish' d, believing that it would save money to the tax payers. Does he mean to chat je that these gentlemen hsd any other purpose in mind in making this rec n -mendation than the welfare of the t ix payers of Craven county ? Does he or one moment mean to imply that th- e mn made th' recommendation o give "somebody" a job? The above is exactly bow the mo e ment for the establishment of a 1 corder's Court started in the city 'f New Bern. After these three hon ir Able bodies made the above recomm n dations, Mr. R. A. Nunn, the Rep c sentative from Craven county, sugg s ted that a petition be circulated in N w Bern simply to find out what th maj r Ity of the tax payers felt about the s tablishment of this court. Two hund id andnineteen of the largest tae piy in New Bern gladly signed the petili a, req testing the last legislature to p the act to befsubmittod by Mr. Nui n. On the strength of these four eugk -lions, Ihe board of county nromlaal n ers, the last two grand juries and the petition, Mr. Rom Nunn passed ths bill with the proviso that the voters of the county should have an opportunity of ratifying the same. And yet the Editor of the afternoon paper claims that the whole thing is OLD NEWSPAPERS. Their U-;ftlncss Is Not Gone Just Decju'-a You Have R;ad Them. The mere fact that moths cannot read Is no reason why they should de test newspapers, hut they do neverthe less. It isu't exactly the newspaper or Its editorial policy that moths dislike. Ifs the ink used In printing the type that makes the moths stay away. That is why. in the absence of mothproof baps and cedar chests, some house wives park their furs and woolens away wrapped in newspapers at the end of the winter season and find that Is a satisfactory way of preserv ing them against the ravages of moths. There is nothing better than old news papers for use under the carpets for lie same reason. Old newspapers have many other uses as well. Wet in water they serve to dean out the stove splendidly. Crushed newspapers are excellent to clean lamp chimneys. They can even be used for an iron holder for an emergency. Newspapers dipped In lamp oil are useful for cleaning windows. Irons uot much soiled can he rubbed on old newspapers and thus made fit for use. Dipped In lamp oil they are splendid to rob the outside of the dishpnn. They keep it bright and shining. Torn In shreds, slightly dampened and scat tered over the carpet, they keep down dust when sweeping. They clean the sink of its grease ahd sediment. Nolh lug is better, for the greasy paper can be at once burned after use. Many times folded newspapers will serve ns a mat to stand hot and black ened pots or kettles on and save soil ing the kitchen table. The kitchen stove is kept bright after the cooking of each meal with old papers, and this saves many polishing. CASTOR I A Tor Infants and Children.

They are called slip per animalculae, or. as the scientist has It, the Paramecium. These tiny, Invisible things develop so rapidly that if they were able to live through 350 generations they would crowd every other living thing off the face of the earth and form a mass larger than the planet Itself. Should they go on re producing until the nine hundredth generation these little creatures would farm a mass large enough to crowd the moon and stars and even tbe sun entirely out of space.

A Hindu Dialect Story That Appeared In the London Times, John Walter of the London Times once found n unique way out of a diffi culty brought about by a strike ot compositors and pressmen. At the critical moment, it appears, the "eopy" fell short by half a column. There was none at band ready to utilise, and time pressed. It was really an inspiration that came to Walter. He laid bold of a column of "pi" (spilled type. that bas been reset In a jumbled mass to facili tate distribution back Into the type cases) and prepared it in the most ex peditious way. so that it might pass muster for an article in a foreign tongue. He ran It In with a few lines of introduction, stating that this in comprehensible mass was a paper in some Hludustanee dialect, translation of which would follow in due course. No translation. It is superfluous to say, ever appeared. Many years later, long after Walter had forgotten this incident, be was vis iting in Cheshire, where he was Intro duced to a 'most learned pundit and oriental scholar. "Ah," said this gen tleman, "1 have long and ardently wished to solve a problem that has. puzzled me for years." And be drew from his pocket a tattered clipptug of Walter's "pi." indicating to the em barrassed proprietor of the Times that 1 I - the alleged Hindustanee article had ba fried his most strenuous and assldU- ous efforts to decipher, although ;tje I had tried every known dialect nt h language. There was nothing for Wal ir Waf ter to do but flee, which be did with out ceremony. The Medicine Bottle. In order to avert the most serious thing of having a child lake the wrong medicine, mothers should adhere to the following rules: Never give medicine in the dark. Always read the label on the bottle. Never go by the color of the medi cine. When the bottle is refilled see that the label reads clear. Keep poisons locked up. Keep all bottles locked up in a draw er or medicine chest Mistakes of giving children carbolic acid and such like poisons In the night time make It Imperative that mothers study and adhere to these rules, for sometimes such Inadvertent mistakes bring about terrible conclusions.
