The next convention of the Cotton States Association of the Commission ers of Agriculture will be held in Ral eigh August 21et. It is said that the meeting promises to be one of great Importance, and it is thought that a large delegation lrom the cotton States will be in attendance. Labori, the famous lawyer who de fended Zola and Dreyfus, is to yisit America and spend some time lectur ing in the principal cities. The Amer ican Bar Association has expressed a wish that its distinguished French confrere visit the United States, and he is anxious to come. Should he come he will receive a warm welcome and thousands will throng to hear him, for there was much sympathy in this coun try for his woffc in the great Dreyfus trial. The theory of the Constitution is now and always has been that the man who refuses to support his county pa per, no matter whether be agrees with the editor or not, cannot be depended upon to aid in the growth aud develop ment of his town and bis community. The man who takes any paper at all should take his home paper ; if he makes this small investment he will soon betray a desire to widen his point of view, and will patronize, in addition, some newspaper that has a wider field of operations. Atlanta Constitution. George T. Angel!, editor of "Our Dumb Animals," has nurxeroua testi monials to the efficacy of sulphur as a medicine. It 's claimed that sulphur is a cure for la giippe. At a match factory in a Connecticut town, where la grippe was prevailing as au epidem ic, the forty-three persons employed in handling sulphur in making matches entirely escaped the disease. The sug gestion is given that sulphur sprinkled in the shoes will prevent la grippe. r. Angeli thinks that inasmuch as sulphur is cheap and is so strongly recommended bv many persons, it is well enough to keep it before the peo ple, for it is cheap and easy to get. At Charlotte Criminal court two wee us si go the grand jury made a re port, a part of which was quite signifi cant. The report recited the fact that crime is increasing, and they attributed it to the great amount of gambling which seems to prevail everywhere. The Charlotte Observer gaye a partial report of the grand jury who said that they believed the spirit of gambling Is inculcated largely by the example of "the fair, deft bands of the progressive euchre players." They said that the gambling in hieh life is winked at, while the little "coons" throwing craps back in some livery stable or on the creek banke for a nickle a game are always coralled by the police. There is much truth in the report of said grand jury ; and the application can be made general for almost every commu nity in the land. The Legislature has performed its part in preparing and passing the pro posed amendment to be yoted on. It now remains for the people to say whether it shall be ratified or not. If a majority of the votes shall be against it thnt ends it. If a majority shall be for it then it will become part of our constitution. So the whole question and responsibility is now with the peo ple. It is lor them to say what shall ba done with it. And in making up their minds and arriving at their con clusions they have ample time to consid er this great question in all its bearings upon the future policies and interests of their State. Much will probably be written and spoken against the amend ment before the day of voting comes. It will be well for the conseivatiye, thoughtful people to take these argu ments and reasons, consider them and then vote as they be convinced Is for the best interest of themselves, their homes and theii State.

Bleased are they who know their place and fill it who out of the myriad duties ol all know their one duty and do it. Blessed are they who mourn not in small corners who look neither to the light nor to the left for excuses to shirk their own little task. Blessed are they who shine out steadily their gleam cf useful service, though out of the darkness comes neither word of thankfulness nor the hail of fellowship Blessed are they, for their work is tes timony rendered to the grandeur of humanity by high lives lived in lowly places. Blessed are the? who without being puffed up, believe that their own van lehinst lives are of moment to the world who regard life as a trust and its manner of living a test who treas ure their hours for thoughts and deeds rather than kill tbem with foolish and fruitful waste. Blessed are they; for their beliefs solve all questions regard ing existence. Their lives justify the power that called men into being. These are they who make the world fruitful each generation heedful to leave improvement, that the genera tion to come may have power to carry the world still further forward. Blessed are they who believe in hu man advancement. They are seers of the future, and what they see are not fantasies of the brain. As are their Ideas, so are shaped the acts and facts of their lives. Their beliefs make them rise up and be doing for betterment ; their beliefs ARE the betterment of the world. Blessed indeed are they : for without such lives animalism and savagery would creep forth again to rule humanity. Blessed are thev. though lonely in their works ; for their power in the world is not to be meas ured by noise nor estimated by honors. Blessed are they who look backward to learn and forward to see, who be lieve the light ahead was never excelled by the light that is past, who believe that the present is better than the past in all things whereof to be proud, and that the future i? to be better than either. Their hearts are quiet, though in things yet to be done, tbey shall have no living share. Blessed are tbey who thrill with the feeling that this vast universe is not a mere chance thing that blind force rent out of chaos, propelling it forward to reach an end of blind calamity. Blessed are they in the thrilling; forj they hold the key to peace within, while perplexity rules without. Though their feet needs must rest upon earth, their spirits rise up until their eyes can look down on the restless whole as if from an exceeding high mountain. They see purposes unseen by those who grze upward from dark valleys ol confusing doubt and unquiet question. New Cure for Appendicitis. Selected. -Physicians are interested in a new treatment for appendicitis which has just been successfully tried by Dr. Geo. J. Helmer, of New York. Heretofore a surgical operation has attended the treatment of such cases. .Dr. Helmer does not employ the surgeon's knife. The patient on whom treatment was tried is a young woman living in Har lem. Her attending physicians favor ed the usual operation, Dr. Helmer, ac cording to the New York World, first tried his plan. This is simply forcing out the matter which clogs the appen dix by superficial treatment. m The largest muscle of the human body, the posas maguus, which is just back of the appendix, is manipulated with the hand in such a way that a spasmodic contraction causes it to-rfap back against the vermiform appendix, forcing out of that organ any foreign substance it may contain. ' In the case of the young woman she was relieved in eight minutes. DR. BULL'S COUGH SYRUP con quers croup at once, cures the child, and thus saves mauy a life. Mothers need not tear that dreadful disaase, if they have this reliable remedy at band. It is sold by all druggists for 15 cents.

An Aebeyille letter to the New York Sun says : If one would learn the popular su- cerstitions of North Carolina he must go into the rural districts. Below are some of the common sayings : If, in washing the dishes or clean ing the table before a meal, the cook drops a dish rag, seme one Is coming in hungry. The crowing of a rooster before the front door early in the morning fore tells the yisit of a stranger. If a red bird flits about the front yard and chirps merrily, a young girl gaily dressed and light-hearted may be expected soon. The crowing of a rooster early in the night is a sign of hasty news. Thus many a chicken rooster by a single crow, has oast a gloom over an entire family. The howling of a dog at night fore tells some dire calamity, such as a tragio death. If a dog lies on his back, with feet extended upward, in the front yard, come member of the family in which be belongs is sure to die soon. The screaming of a screech owl three nights in succession in or about the front yard is the sign that some one In the house is In danger of death. To drive the owl away stiok the shovel in the fire. The crowing of a chicken hen por tends bad luck. It certainly means a death, for no good woman would per mit a crowing hen to live longer than it would take to bring an axe across its neck. In ironing a garment if the smooth ing iron is dropped, the owner of the garment will never live to wear it out. Friday is an unlucky day. If a piece of work is begun on that day the one who begins will not live to see itj finished. I If the individuals of a hunting party in crossing a fence, go over the same section luck wili be good, but if sever al sections are crossed the hunt will be a laiiure. If in strolling two persons go on op posite sides of a treG, one or both o! tbem will meet disappointments be fore the day is over. Looking at new moon for the first time through obstructed space, as through a tree top, foretells misfor tunes during that moon. To see it over the right shoulder and in the clear space brings good luck. The rabbit always carries omens of ill fortune. If you meet him on going from home you may look for trouble before you return ; if going toward home, there will be trouble in your family. Ashes must not be taken from a fireplace in a sicK room. The death of the patient would follow. Nor must the bed ol- a sick person be turned over. No one ever saw a negro meet a corpse. The rnost courageous negro would go out of his way to avoid such a calamity. It is said that if you meet a corpse your time will come next. If a corpse is stopped on the way to. the grave, another member of the family will soon follow. Kraut must be made iu the dark of the room if it is to be sour. It is the height of folly to cut a child's finger nails before it is a year old for then it would steal. The nails must be broken off. If a child is allowed to look in a mir ror before it is a year old teething will be difficult. The tying of a small sack contain ing the four feet ot a ground mole around a baby's neck assures 'a full set of pretty teeth. If in teething the child's gums are sore that may be cured by rubbing them with rabbit brains hot from the head. The writer has seen both of these remedies prac ticed. To remove a wart from the body steal a piece ot meat, rub the wart with it and then bury it. Say nothing about what you have done aud the wart will soon disappear. A stray black cat in the backyard foretells good luck. If a woman is making soap and a man comes up and stirs it, all will be well and the soap will be fine, but if a woman comes, the soap will spoil in making. If you sins: in bed you will cry next day. If a railroad engineer sees a blank sheep cross the track in front of him he expect trouble. That . is an omen of ill luck. A FRIGHTFUL BLUNDER Will often cause a horrible Burn, Scald, Cut or Bruise.

Atlanta Journal. Miss Nancy Burdette, who is sixty years of age, walked into the office of the clerk of the superior court of De Kalb county in Decatur this morning and asked Clerk H. H. Burgess for per mission to look at tbe record of a deed made by her mother to herself and several other heirs ten years ago. When tbe record book bad been placed before her and tbe deed she de sired had been found she suddenly snatched tne leaf from the book, rip ped off a part containing her deed, crumpled it in her hands, quickly transferred it to her mouth and attempt ed to swallow it. Clerk Burgess and Duputy Clerk Hil- liard saw tbe attempt. Bent on saving tbe deed, both grabbed tbe lady. Oue caught her by the throat to close the passage against the final and irretreiv- able loss of the record. The other forced his fingers in her mouth, and after a desperate struggle gouged the paper out, badly mutilated and cover ed with blood. Miss Burdette sank back in a chair exhausted alter her unsuccessful effort to destroy the deed. SHE WAS BOUND OVEE. She was detained in tbe office while Mr. Burgess went before Justice of the Peace Thomas Finch er and swore out a warrant charging Miss Burdette with mutilating the public records. Later she was tried on the warrant before the justice and held in a bond of $250. At noon she had not made the bond, and it may be that she will be sent to jail to await trial on the charge aga'nst her. "I didn't know 1 was violating the law," said Miss Burdette to the justice. "I have the original deed in my poss ession and I thought it the one on re cord was destroyed I would not be an noyed any more by my sister's child ren." The deed which came near being de stroyed was made by Miss Burdette's mother and conveys a tract of farm land situated two and a hall miles be low Decatur to Miss Burdette and oth er heirs. Miss Burdette lived on the place. She told the court efficials that she had been making a living by sew ing and quilting lor tbe peuple of the county. DEED WILL BE PASTED BACK. Clerk Burgess spent tbe morning in an attempt to mend tbe mutilated deed. It happend that on tbe oppor- sitesideof the leaf which contained Miss Burdett's deed veying certain land was a deed con to the Primitive DeKalb county. Baptist church of This record suffered considerably by contact with Miss Burdette's teeth and gums while in the transitory and uncer tain state of being. It is stained with blood in a manner similar to the Burdette deed and mem bers of the church in examining the deed hereafter will be foroibly remind ed of Miss Burdette and her unique connection with the church property. The bloody deed has been pasted to gether and glued baok in its proper place in the musty record?. CURE la grippe with Roberts' Taste less Chill Tonic. 25c. Delightful to take. Try it.

It is sometimes good to remember the days that are past to review and collect from former experiences the crumbs that are left that nothing be lost. I shall at present speak of farming. My father was a farmer, aud I began to plow at the age of seven years. His primal object ol farming was to raise his own supplies. I never knew him to buy a grain of corn, nor a pound of meat, a chicken, horse, cow, mule, nor anything of that sort. He usually had such things to tell. It was common for men to drive their wagons to his crib and load them with corn, and buy bacon from him. Now and then he wouid sell a horse. Always he had eomething to sell, and the buy ers would come to him to purchase. He did not plant much cotton ; no tobacco. He always had money in his pocket, and bought a tract of land almost eve ry year. If in those daya a farmer bought corn it shook his credit, for he was consideied a poor farmer. My observation is that the farmers now that raise their own bread and meat at home are successful, but those that buy their corn, meat, flour and all such things as they must have are fail ures. Now who are the wiser, the farmers of oklen time that made their provis ions at home and kept out of dabt, or those of these days that grow so much cotton and tobacco and buy what tfcey eat, aud are so enslaved with debt? Return to the good old way. Plant corn enough to fatten vour hoira. Raise your supplies at home. Have your smoke Louse, at home and your corn crib at the same place, well filled. Raise chickens. Have your own milk and butler and such thiiis at home. rr i i , i a iieu wnat cotioti or tobacco you mate will be vour ovn. DR. BULL'S COUGH SYRUP is the best medicine for sure throat, laryngitis, quinsy or tonsilitis. Every drop ot it soothes arid heals. A twen ty-five cent bottle of this wouderlul remedy will cure a cough or cold Li one day. o . Calico print works use 40,000,000 dozen eggs per year, wine-clarifiers use 10,000,000 dozen, the photographers aud other industries use many millions, aud these demands increase more rap idly than table demands. THAT THROBBING HEADACHE Would quickly leave you, if you used Dr. King's New Life Pills. Thousands of sufferers have proved their match less merit for Sick and Nervous Head aches. They make pure Wood and strong nerves, and build up j'our health. Easy to take. Try them. Only 25c. Money back if not cured. Sold by E T. Whitehead & Co., Druggists.

A THOUSAND TONGUES Could not express the rapture of Annie E. Springer, of 1125 Howard St., Philadelphia, Pa., when the found that Dr. King's New Discovery for Con sumption had completely cured her of a hacking cough that for many years ifOb made life a burden. AU other remedies and doctors could give her no help, but the says of this Royal Cure : "It soon removed the pain in my che?t and I can now sleep soundly, something I can scarcely remember doing before. I feel like sounding lt3 praise through out the Universe." So will every one who tries Dr. King's New Discovery for any trouble of the tliroat, Chest or Lungs. Price 50c and $1.00.

My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunk en, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite gradually growing weaker day by day. Ihree physicians bad given me up. For tunately, a lriend advised trying Elec tric 'Bitters ; and to my great joy and surprise, the rim bottle made a (leaded Improvement. I continued their uee for three weeks, and am now a well man.
