Jt70MEN used
to think "fe
male diseases"
could only be
treated after "lo

tions" by physi
cians. Dread of
such treatment
kept thousands of
modest women
silent about their
suffering. The In
troduction of
Wine of Cardui has now demon
strated that nine-tenths of all the
cases of menstrual disorders do
not require a physician's attention
at all. The simple, pure
taken In the privacy of a woman's
own home insures quick relief nd
speedy cure. Women need not
hesitate now. Wine of Cardui re
quires no humiliating examina

disease that comes under the head
of "female troubles" disordered
menses, falling of the womb,

women beautiful by making them

The graduating ot the class from
Annapolis two months ahead ot time
md assigning them to places in the
navy, was a confession of unreadiness
on the part of the United States to go
to war. No doubt already Spain hae
construed that to mean that the
United States is badly scared.
The bill prohibiting false statements
in advertisements passed both branches
of the New York Legislature. Wonder
how tne officers of the law will find out
whether advertisers have made mis
statements or not ? Such a law would
not trouble many business men in some
North Carolina towns we know; lor
they do not advertise at all.
North Carolina has not seen such a
mammoth larce in many years as has
been played on the railroad stage with
Governor Russell as manager. It has
heen the biggest temptest in the small
'at teapot that has ever been witnessed
in the State. After all the stir and
-jputter over railroads and railroad
passes and the like, the matter is about
as it was when the fuss was commenced
It has gone out to the world that at
the last session of the North Carolina
Legislature more money was paid to
the emoloves of the Senate than to
the members of that body themselves
This is credited to the Auditor's re-
nort : and some one has remarked that
the members of the Senate were oyer-
paid.
All of which means that the money
consideration before that august body
was about the first and last thought.
One of the calamities of war, aside
from the butchery of human beings, is
the burdens that ars beeped upon the
spared in the matter of taxation. War
excitement raises prices eyen before
hostilities commence and the effect is

"The war of the rebellion was

the country is still paying direct war
taxes to the amount of nearly $200,-

SWEET EASTER.
BUT WHAT OF TEE SUFFERING?
To Them it means Nothing.
BY "NEMO."
(Copyrighted by Dawe & Tabor.)
Sweet Easter.! Its music lingers in
our ears and our hearts have happiness,
for it bespeaks the triumph of the beau
tiful. We know that the time now is
when the harsh ontlines of the hills and
the bare trees will be softened with del
icate foliage, and the brown and ark
some tints of the winter-bound land
scape be transformed into every possible
tint of green. Under the influence of
this thought we feel raised up, we stand
in the high places of joy, we are full to
overflowing of the exhilaration that
comes to the soul through eyes that see
and understand.
But empty our larders and rob us of
cloths, drive us together like beasts and
shelter us worse, slash our trembling
limbs with machetes where then would
be this bland sense of physical content
ment? Surround us with all the glo
ries of tropic verdure, let the sun rise
in grandeur and shine undlmmed, let it
sink in the west and, in sinking, paint
unspeakable wonders across one halt
the heavens how would this feast of
the eye satisfy you when hunger was
drivme out all other feelings? Easter
and its rebirth of beauty would be a
mere wretched mockery ot misery.

Various Observations.
(Correspondence to The Commonwealth.)
The spring season in these parts
Guilford, Randolph, Alamance has
been quite favorable for farmers as well
as hopeful for fruit growers; but
though no disaster has overtaken the
ruft thus far, past experience ha
shown that late spring frosts often blast
the fairest prospects of the fruit grow
er so no one dare be confident ot a
full fruit crop as yet. The wheat pros
pect is fine, and complainers seem to
be few. The past winter is regarded as
having been exceedingly mild, though
it gave us an occasional "snap" of cold,
as at New Year's, and the last week in
January, and even now, the 30th cj
March. The winds are so sharp as to
portend danger of frost. Nor do I sup
pose that HaMfax is necessarily beyond
the reach of the same danger, though
he fruit crop with you is so small in
comparison with whaHt is here, that
what would be a serious loss here is
lessened very much when it falls upon
the counties in the East.- Since these
notes were begun there have beeu two
frosty mornings here April 2nd and
April 3rd and the amount of damage
done has not been reported as yet.
That much of the crop has been killed
here and there, there can be no doubt,
though this does not plainly appear to
one who is passing along the highways
Frost does far more damage to the or
chards which are situated contiguous
to low, damp place? and water couren
compared with those on the higher
grounds. And, perhaps mostly because
so much ot the timber has been felled
in the clearing of farm lands, and the
sunnlv of the lumber demand, the
winters have gradually become
X XT
more severe than they were even thir
ty years ago. This is the tedtimony of
some of the older inhabitants.
A few moments ago I accosled a gen
tleman on his way to Greensboro with
a load ot hay for market, and to . my

"Fen Picture of Mormonlsm."
Concord Times."
During my travels in Mississippi I
met with Rev. M. L. Oswalt, a former
Mormon elder, but now a Baptist
preacher. HeJ married into a Mormon
family in Mississippi when quite
young. In 1879 he was induced to
join their church without examining
their doctrines. In 1880 he moved
with a number of Mormon families
from Mississippi to a Mormon settle
ment in the Rocky Mountains of Col
orado, 8,000 fe8t feet above sea level.
Heie he was made an elder. When he
got bold of their book of "Doctrines and
Covenant," his eyes were opened by
its absurdities and blasphemies, taught
as direct revelations from God to their
successive prophets. Each successor
of Joe Smith is believed to be a proph
et, who receives special revelations
from God for the guidance of the Lat
terday Saints. Though it may contra
dict a former revelation, the last Bull
issued by this prophet is binding on
all Mormons as the latest decree of
God. Hence vou can never know into
-
what absurdities Mormonism will run.
It simply depends upon the will or
whim of their prophet as to what Bull
he may issue as the special degree of-
I heaven
j Instead
of the Paradise promised
them by the Mormon elders who took
tnem to the Rocky Mountains, they
found it, as a wag described it, "nine
months winter and three montns late
m the fall." Hence the Mississippi
f.j0n or freezing out.
By reading their hook of "Doctrine
and Covenants," Elder Oswalt became
satisfied that Mormonism was false.
When he got back to his old home and
friends he joined a Baptist church and
was finally ordained to the ministry,
He is now zealously preaching as
pas-
tor of several churcnes.

They even go so far as to teach mye-

Lincoln on Champagne.
Selected.
- Several times during his presidency,
Abraham Lincoln had occasion to re
buke his governmental associates. One
of the most effective of these, because
administered in Lincoln's own inimit
able, good-natured way, is recounted by
Gen. Porter in a reminiscent article in
tne Century.
It was on a trip down the Potomac to
visit Gen. Grant's army. Lincoln did
not feel quite well. Perhaps he was a
trifle seasick, and he said so. In Gen.
Porter's words :
"An officer of the party now saw that
an opportunity had arisen to make this
the supreme moment of giving him a
chance to BOothe the digestive organs of
the Chief Magistrate of the nation.
He said : 'Try a glass of champagne,
Mr. President. That is always a certain
cure for seasickness.' Mr. Lincoln look
ed up at him for a moment, his face
lighted up with a smile, and then re
marked : No, my friend ; I nave seen
too many fellows seasick ashore from
drinking that very stuff.'
"This was a settler lor the officer, and
all present joined heartily in the laugh,
at his expense."

back to the time of Charlemagne, and
it is a fact that it was mentioned as a

century. It twines round a large part
of the ancient'Cathedral of Hildesheim
