F. D. 3 know how their accounts stand, If you have any business with the Journal call on Mr. Ipock It took Turkey a long time to find it out, but it at last knows that it has had -er.orgh. The terms of peace p ro pised by the Ei ropean powers lave been ui reservecly accepted by that very badly beaten empire. Montenegro defying the powers is Somehow suggestive of those suffra gettes defying the Eristish government so weak and defenceless as to make the matter of applying the needed dis cipline something of a puzzle. Dr. Wilson went from the college to a Governorship and from that to the Presidency. Taft went from the Presidency to a college. Both men are worthily employed. The school master in politics and the politician in schoolmastering! This thing of pre-election promises is getting serious. Heretofore the cus tom has been for the candidate and the people to forget ill about them promj tly. But we note that the New York Legislature is considering the wisdom of probing the premises that Governor Sulzer made when he was soliciting the sufTrages of the people. Raleigh carried the commission form 1 uesday by a decisive vote while by a still more emphatically decisive vote Durham de'eatcd it. There h something the matter either with Dur ham or the particular variety of com mission form which the Bi.ll City voted. Some times -a thing good in itself has tacked on to it some objectionable or impossible feature. If it is true as scrnc suppose that the condition of the West shore of the Neuse lying along East Front street is responsible for a number of cases of typhoid fever, it is time for the city to do somethirig to relieve the situa tion. The Chamber of Commerce has committees to investigate matters of this sort and it is to be hoped that the proper committee will be put promptly to work on this project and see just what degree of merit there is in it. HERE'S A NEW FORM OF SUB SIDY. Cleanliness is next to Godliness and is also a cheap form of insurance against sickness. That is at least the opinion of a Philadelphia concern which offers each of its employes a bonus of fifteen cents every time he takes a bath, the number of baths taken under the offer not to exceed one a day. The company goes si ill further and fur nishes soap, towels and other acces sories needed for the btih. It pays to keep employes in fit condition and there is no ueifectly fit condition without fiequent bathing. PREACHING THFOUC H THE ME DIUM OF ADVtRTlSEMENlS. A London bishop it to the fore with the argument that the way to meet the problem of empty churches is to advertise. "If I had my way", he declares, "I would take a space in a paper and reason with a million readers Most of the Sunday papers are read by, people who never go to church. I am confident that short messages to them used as display advertisements would do much good." Nothing will ever take the place of the message of the inspired speaker in the pulpit, but it certainly would not do any harm and it might result in the accomplishment of great good, to reinforce the work of the preacher in the pulpit and in his pastoral work by appe; Is In the form of advertisement-,." A a es ae that is won h Ic aid ins rt all is worth heralding in every effec va wayj APPOINTMENT A GOOD ONF. The app intment of Walter H.

The appointment of Walter H. Page a Ambassador to Great Britain will no doubt be received with surprise, but only because it was unexpected. ' Of Mr. Page's fitness there can be no question. As a writer, critic, and publisher he has had long experience in liura-y pursuits. In his service as edittr of the Forum, the Atlantic Monthly and World's Work he has kept fully abreatt of the best thought and purposes of the time. Not yet past the prime of life, his service abroad should, reflect credit upon him self and honor upon his country. "As has been the case with several of his mcst distinguished predecessors at the Court of St. James, Mr. Page will speak for the republic of letters as well as for the Republic of the United States. In both respects there is reason to believe that the represehtat ion will be in accordance with the best standards." North Carolina is not suffering at the hands of President Wilson. Yes terday he named Walter H. Page, editor of the World's Work, ambassa dor to England. He could have gone further and fared much worse than in naming Mr. Page, who is one of the ablest men in the country and qualified in every way to adequately represent this country at the court of St. James. THE LAST OF HIS KIND. As the day when the editor of his newspaper is passing away and yielding to the day of imperial journalism, so has the day began to wane when in the world of finance a few men can rise conspicouusly among their fellows. There will probably never again be another J. Pierpont Mcrgan. whose death occurred yesterday in Rome. Changed social standards, the growing tendency to co-operation among the people making for the good of the many rather than for the good of the few, the placing of a government caveat upon monopoly, and other conditions which a new conception of what is great and good is bringing about will mean the end of the Morgans in the annals of the nation. And now this country has been asked to interterc to prevent the forcible feeding of an American woman in jail in London for window-smashing. But the request will hardly be taken ser iously. If an American woman gets in jail in London and goes on hunger strike the attitude of this countrv will probably be that it is none of our funeral. NORFOLK SOUTHERN BOOSTS TOBACCO GROWING. The Norfolk Southern Railroad Com pany is boosting the tobacco growing industry for its section. In one of its latest folders it devotes a page to the subject " There is Money in Grow ing Tobacco". Under this head ii gives a very impressive record of re sults secured by tobacco planters in Norfolk Southern territory in 1912. Coming to the tobacco sales on the various markets along the Norfolk Southern lines the folder gives the following figures showing what a tre mendous factor in the business activi ties of some of the Eastern Caro lina towns tobacco is: "Nearly 17,000,00 pounds of tobacco were sold on the market at Wilson, N. C, crop of 1912, averaging abont 20 cents per pound; a total return of $3,275,;0OO for distribution among the farmers of that vicinity. "The tobacco market at Greenville, crop of 1912, handled 12,250,000 pounds, averaging 18 1-2 cents per pound, a total value of $2,275,000. The Kinston tobacco market handled about 9,000,000 pounds ,at an average of 17 cents, and a total value of $1,- 500,000. "These three tobacco markets rep resented crop sales of 37,325, ;000 pounds of tobacco, and with a total selling return of over $7,000,000 of cash income to the farmers of the local tobacco belt. -ti'The alve 'fancy facts' prove, with out question, there is money in growing tobacco along the Norfolk Southern R K Thousands of acres of rich but idle tobacco land, similar to the farms re ferred to above, still await the coming planters and homeseekers. Can Ym Doubt It? When the Proof Can Be So Easily Investigate. When so many grateful citizens of New Bern testify to benefit derived from Doan's Kidney Pills, can you doubt the evidence? The proof is not far away t is almost at your door. Read what a resident of New Bern says about Doan's Kidney Pills. Can you demand more convincing testi mony? C. F. Harget, 47 Burns St., New Bern, N. (.'.. says: "1 ain just as pleased to endorse Doan's Kidney Pills at this time as I was after I first used them some some vears ago. My' back ached a great deal and I had pain through my kidneys which ilainly showed that I was afflicted with kidney complaint. Doan's Kidney Pills were Drocured Lfrom the Bradham Drug Ca. and they so enectiveiy removed my trouble that I have only bad need of them once since then. At that time they again acted promptly and gave me entire relief. 1 know that this preparation acts as represented and is worthy of the highest praise." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 rents.
