In its December issue the Woman's Home Companion continues its cam paign lor "better babies" by publish ing in its Tegular department for "Better Babies", an article entitled "How to Make Babies Better" by Dr. Roger H. Dennett, a New York physician who is an authority on the care and treatment of children. Following is an extract from Dr. Dennett's article comparing country children with city children. "When I think of the advantages which country children have over the eity-bred child, I cannot help regret ting that all children are not born in equally healthful surroundings. The country child without the slightest effort can breathe fresh air night and day. At night the city child may breathe fresh air, such as it is, but in the daytime, during the early years, he must play upon the street alone, er the mother must give up her house hold duties and go with him to the park. If the country mothers knew how faithfully city mothers give their child ren this daily airing, and knew what a sacrifice it is to be taken away from their household duties so many hours each day, they would realize how for tunate tbey are whea they can dress their children and set them outside the back door to play by themselves. The Infant may sleep there undisturbed, and the older child may play alone, without fear f anything harming kin." We have a suspicion that when Huei ta goes out it will be on a stretcher. Let's hear from all sides on this stock-law question. Write us your pinion and we will gladly give you space. Huerta's make-up is such that "mor al" pressure doesn't have much effect en him. We are afraid something else will have to be tried. Everybody in Mexico wants to be recognized. They don't care what you do to them just so you admit they are on the earth. Over in Washington State they have a law against laziness. If it is effective it should be made to include South Carolina. As the time for SaaU Glaus' appear ance draws nearer, many a little tot is wishing that his stocking was larger and that ha had four feet instead of two. No one should marvel at Huerta's refusal to resign. He is a pretty good substitute for his Satanic Majesty, and as war is what General Sherman said it was, he of course, feels at home. We do not agree with our sour con temporary which advocates calling off the Virginia-Carolina football game, because we have had the stuffing beaten out of us for the past few years. Let'- keep hammering at them. Re venge will come some of these days and when it does it will be sweet, aye, tweet will be no name for it. It may come this year we are expecting it. In fact, we expect nothing else. A Yale professor claims to have dis covered a process whereby eggs may be manufactured and put on the market at a much cheaper price than they arc sow bringing. We are not one of those who scoff at new inventions, etc., but we have a suspicion that it will be a long tune before Mrs. Hen is completely out of a job. Governor Craig has selected three able men in Judge Justice, Professor Potent and Mr. Thompson as members of the freight rate commission. Judge Justice is one of the ablest judges on the bench. Mr. Potet la president of Wake Forest College, and one of the ablest men la the South today. Mr. Thompson is a manufacturer and should be able to render valuable service. We think the governor has made no mistake ia hi selections. f Editor Oliver, of Reidaville, probably isneata of the many caustic remarks he made about the senior senator during the senatorial tsosjaton A seam of sefclniis pie might have been Us bat for the utterance. Under the oirramaWasai be ahoold not kick if aba sensor senator refuses to allow ham ta land. Ha chose his course and be a tsbjl wflttag to abide by the a, am his man landed all would have been well. The fortunes of poli tics elevated another, it cannot De expected of Senator Simmons that he place his enemies in the high places. Brother Oliver should take his medicine like a man. Maybe he will line up with the right faction, next time. We are no expert in such matters, but we believe a tobacco warehouse Would be a paying proposition for New Bern. A great many citizens of this county have to take their tobacco to the Kinston market. They do their trading there and the Kinston merchant profits and the New Bern merchant loses as a result. The merchants of this city should stir up some plan to get' a warehouse built here and bring all the money here that is spent in Kinston and other towns by our farmers be cause they have to go elsewhere to market their products. A man never realizes how much sense one girl has who jilts him until another gets busy and marries him. SHOULD LOOKOUT FOR HIM. And now it is announced that Con gressman Charlie Thomas is going to try for a come-back in the third congres sional district. Dr. Faison, the in cumbent, should look out at Washing ton and get him something "just as good" in the way of a fedenl ap pointment. Wilmington Star. We do not speak officially, but we think, ourselves, that it would be a good idea on Col. Faison's pat. If Charles R. decides to go after his scalp you can just bet that he will come very near getting it. Therefore it behooves Bro ther Faison to use all legitimate means to sidetrack him. CANINE NEWSDEALERS MAKE THEMSELVES USEFUL. Two Chicago dogs an Irish terrier and a water spaniel -the property of a successful newsdealer of that city, arc proving themselves very useful to their master. If the latter goes to lunch, or has to leave his stand for a time, the two watchful anlnvals sell newspapers for hint. "Rex," the Irish terrier, perches himself on the stand and grips between his teeth a big calabash pipe pipe and a copy of a newspaper, while "Brownie," his partner, takes up his position on a little soap-box beside the stand and holds on in his teeth a little "plug" hat for the safe-keeping of the pennies. When a passer-by buys a paper "Brownie" sits up to receive the coin. Both of the dogs seem to have a fierce as well as a sharp eye to business and their master places great faith in them.

PRESIDENT DON'T WISH GRESS TO ADJOURN CON- Washington, Nov. 19 At the White House today it was said that Presi dent Wilson had not not been consulted about adjournment of Congress by any of the leaders and that the President was opposed to an adjournment as he wished continuous consideration of the currency bill. WIFE FOR LIFE NEW YORK MAN DASHES CAR BOLIC ACID ON HER FACE AND BODY. New Ydrk, Nov. 18. Morris Fein berg, a garment worker at No. 10.) Goerck street, went to Jersey City City yesterday afternoon determined to effect a reconciliation with his wife, fUchacl, from whom he had been sep arated for three months. When she left him, Mrs. Feinberg went to live with her sister, Mrs. Wyman, at No. 101 Morris street, Jer sey City, and until three days ago saw aothihg of her husband. Friday she aoticrd a man lurking about the house, and as he seemed familiar she looked closer and discovered he was Feinberg. Ha had turned up his collar to hide his features. DISFIGURES Feinberg made no attempt to enter the Wyman home that day, nor the aext, although he was seen prowling about several times. Nor did he ap pear at the door until the Wyman's had gone out to make a call last evening. It later developed that he had stood in the rain where he could watch the place and had been soaked to the skin. Shortly after Mr. and Mrs. Wyman had departed Feinberg rang the bell and the door w as opened by Marion Wy man, eighteen years old. Demanding to see his wife, Feinberg brushed the girl aside and entered the parlor where Mrs. Feinberg and Fannie Wyman, thirteen years old, were seated. "I want you to come home with me," Feinberg demanded, glowering at his wife. "I want you to go along right now." Mrs. Feinberg, thoroughly frightened by the demeanor of her husband, pro tested that she did not want to return. She referred to the quarrels which made it impossible for her to be happy with him and begged him to permit her to re main. "Then you won't come?'' Feinberg shouted threateningly. "No," answered his wife. "I can't." Feinberg glared ta the woman and thrust his right hand into his pocket of his soggy coat. For a woment he seemed undecided, then he drew forth a bottle and uncorked it. Instantly the room was filled with the fumes of full strength carbolic acid Feinberg raised his arm just as the two women darted for him. They moved quickly, but were not quick enough, and he hurled half the contents upon his wife. As the acid burned her neck, face and arms and cut through her clothing like a red-hot knife, the woman ut tered a piercing scream and fell to the floor. The two nieces also screamed, for the acid had spattered over them, searing their hands and arms. The cries brought a score of neigh bors from other apartments, and the first entered the room just in time to see Feinberg raise the bottle and gulp down some of the acid. He fell writh ing to the floor. While neighbors bandaged the burns of the wife and her nieces, passersby who had heard the screams notified the police and called an ambulance from the City Hospital. Husband and wife were taken there, where it is said Feinberg has small chance of recovery. Mrs. Feinberg will be scarred for life. Feinberg was placed under arrest. i'S BODY FOUND IN CELLAR DRUG CLERK, ARRESTED, SAYS SHEENTERED PHARMACY vVLMOST NUDE. Pittsburg, Pa., Nov. 18. The body of Mrs. Mayme Greineisen, aged 35, wife of Oliver Greineisen, in West End, drug clerk, was found late today lying face downward on a cinder pile in the cellar of C. A. Givens' pharmacy, in the Southsidc. Practically nude the body was scratched and bruised. The woman's left eye was discolored and her hair dishevelled. Michael L. Sweeny, a drug clerk cm ployed in the Givens pharmacy, was arrested. Sweeney, very nervous, said Mrs. Greineisen had entered the phar macy about 8 o'clock last night almost nude and that he and "Tom Hawkins" or "Harkins" picked her up and car ried her into the cellar. A search is being made for the "Tom," Sweeney mentioned. The authorities doubt the story told by Sweeney as to Mrs. Greineisen's ap pearance at Givens' pharmacy, claim ing it impossible for a woman, almost nude, to walk through a number of streets on a Sunday evening without attracting attention. The body was discovered in the cellar through a remark alleged to have been madeby Sweeney to a neighbor "that a woman was in the cellar." Thomas J. Hawkins, a city assessor, questioned at his home tonight by detec tives, admitted having seen Mrs. Greinci sen last night near the pharmacy, appar ently intoxicated. He emphatically denied Sweeny's store of alleged con nection with the case. Hawkins was not detained. TIE PROGRAM BEING SENT OUT MANY PROMINENT SPEAKERS WILL ATTEND THE TEA CHERS ASSEMBLY. The program of t nV thirtieth annual session of the North Carolina Teach ers' Assembly, to be held in Raleigh, November 26-29, has been, sent out to the teachers of the State and it shows that great things in the way of in spiration, enlightenment and informa tion are in store for all who may be able to attend. A perusal of the mere list of names of the speakers on the program of only the general sessions shows that these meetings alone would more than repay for this trip to Raleigh the teacher from seaboard Currituck or from farthest Cherokee. The first session will be addressed by Governor Locke Craig, State Superintendent J. Y. Joy net,' Josiah William Bailey, and Presi dent, J. D. Eggleston of the Virginia Polytechnic In!tute, former .State Su perintendent of Virginia, and one of the greatest authorities on rural edu cation in the country.

Besides these, many of the most prominent educators of this State will address the various associa tions, mi On the whole, the program will offer such a wealth of profit, inspirational informationa, and professional, as no teacher in the State can afford to miss who can possibly go to Raleigh. Spe cial rates on all railroads will allow the round trip to be made for one aijd one-half the regular fare one way, plus fifty cents. Only those who are paid members of the Assembly will get the benefit of the reduction. FAMILY AVOIDS SERIOUS SICKNESS By Being Constantly Supplied Witt Thedf ord's Black-Draught. McDuff, Va.
