The Commonwealth' again comes to the farmers and urges them to sow wheat. Now is the seasda. for that work and the recent rains have put the lands in good condition for it. Let every farmer who can do so plant a few acres in wheat, and with anything like a fair crop he will find that it will come cheaper than if he should buj all his flour. While there may be no flouring mill near you, It will pay you to have the wheat even if you have . to haul It some distance. And the farmers of this community can get their wheat ground at Tarboro if no nearer home. Let the farmers plant wheat. There seems no end to the utility of the product ot the cotton plant. It has been only a few years since it was learned that cotton seed were good for anything at all except to be thrown out carelessly upon the compost heap. Already the oil of the cotton seed has found its place in the general de mand for the South's output from her cotton fields ; but who ever thought there was anything in the hulls but cow-feed? The latest discovery about cotton seed is that the hulls make better pa per puip than wood ; and the discovery and experiment therewith indicate that it will reduce the cost ot paper of the grade made therefrom at least one half. Perhaps nowhere and at no time in the history of this great country has there been displayed greater energy and recuperative power by any people than by the people of Galveston. It is simply wonderful to contrast the gruesome story of the city's dis traction a few weeks ago with the present cheerful reports that come from its rebuilding. The rail road and steamship lines are already at their usual business ; the elevators are at work, shipping interests are looking like they did before the storm and flood, and Galveston Is putting on life again. All within a few weeks after the city was one great morgue ! Truly the people of Galveston are a wonderful people. They are forgeting their late flood of death and are turn ing their hands and hearts to the re building of their great city. Galveston promises to be great again, and the new city will be more wisely built than the old. Good cheer to our plucky people in the South ! The election is over, and this is written before any results are known. The people of North Carolina have borne a great strain this year. Passing through one of the most exciting cam paigns and elections in August that oar people have known .in a quarter century, and then through a national election this week, we are all tired and worn out with it. The Oommon- w ealth hopes now for a rest from these things, and desires to see the thoughts of its readers turned to other things. For a year and a half now we can forget these political turmoils (we wish it were four years before another election) and turn our energies to such developments as are nearest at hand. Let the farmer now concentrate all his powers upon his farm, the professional man do the same for his profession and the business man also lor his business. Let us put our energies to such test that we shall have prosperity, whether McKinley or Bryan is president. t This is written before a vote lias ben cast m this election ; and we wish to emphasize this truth and it is a solid truth that not half so rnucn de pends on who is president as upon the individual man for our prosperity. We must learn this truth and stick to it if we would do well. Vote always the best we know and plan and work the same way in our affairs ol life. WHE7erTlil, take Roberts' Tasteless Chill Tonic.

MUCH IN MANY. Small Things Lead to Great Ones. William Mathews in Saturday Evening Post. The epigrammatic poet, Edward Young, tells us in one of his satires to "Think naught a trifle, though it small appear ; Small sands the mountain, mom ents make the year ; And trifles life." To the philosopher who knows that it is, ..only relatively that thinsp are large or small there is nothing petty, trivial or unimportant. As the chain of being begins with the animalcule and expands into the mammoth so it is with the chain ot even ts. No act or accident of our lives Is insignificant ; the most trifling may be the germ of our destiny. Alike in Nature and in Ufa, the most momentous results spring often from seemingly the paltriest causes. The chalk beds ot England are hun dreds of feet thick and many miles long. Who piled up these precipitous masses of "the silver-coasted isle"? Billions of animalcules, so infinitesi mally small that it has been calculated that ten millions of their dead bodies lie in a cubic inch of space. It Is of the shells of these microscopic creatures that a large part of the earth's sur face is composed. Nature exhibits no contempt for trifles. It is only by a slight deviation from her general law the deviation by which water con tracts down to the temperature of forty degrees, and then expands until it is frozen that the earth is made habi table by man. Were It not for this provision, instead of only a crust of ice forming on the surface of a lake or stream the whole body of water would become solid, the ocean itself would be frozen, and life on the earth would be impossible. "Trifles, light as air," will bring ruin upon a man of a family, and blast the hopes of a kingdom. The yital knot of b man's nervous system is said to be no bigger than a pin's head, yet upon this tiny speck depends the life of the nerves, and upon that hangs the existence of a Caesar or a Napoleon who shapes the destinies of mankind. Napoleon, after the fruitless siege of Acre, declared that a grain of sand had upset all his projects. Sallust tells us that a periwinkle led to the capture of Gibraltar. It was a goose that in one age sayed Rome from its enemies. It was a hare that once caused its cap lure. "A chambermaid," says Lord Chesterfield, "has often made a revo lution in palaces, which was followed by political revolution in kingdoms ; the subtlest diplomacy has sometimes been interrupted by a cough or a sneeze," If the nose of Cleopatra had been shorter, says Pascal, the condition of the world would haye been different. The recall of Alcibiades from the com mand of the Greek forces before Syra cuse sprang from chance influences, yet but for that event the Greeks might have overrun and made them selves masters of the whole of South ern Europe, and the Roman Empire might never have been founded. Had not Alexander the Great been inter rupted for three days in his march on Persia by a sickness caused by a cold bath in the river Cydnus, he would have encountered with his small army the overwhelming host of the enemy in the plains Instead of in the narrow passes ot Cilicia, and would probably have been defeated instead of winning a momentous victory. Of all the marvels which history re cords none more stagger belief than the paltry causes assigned tor some of the bloodiest and most protracted wars which have desolated Europe. Such a cause was the circumstance that in the early history of Rome two friends, M. Livius Drusus and Q. Servilius Caepio, persisted in bidding against each other at an auction for a curious ring. This caused an irreparable breach in the in timacy of the two friends and kindled between them an enmity that contrib uted largely in its consequences to the breaking out ot a war between Rome and her Italian allies in the course ot which 300,000 men perished in battle. What could be more insig nificant in themselves than the causes of some of the fiercest of modern wars ! England and France were made deadlyl enemies for ages by tne aim pie circum stance that Louis VII cropped his hair and shaved his beard. He thus rendered himself disgustful to Eleanor, liis Queen, who, but for this, would never have been divorced from him. Her marriage to the Count of Anjou, afterward Henry II o! England, follow ed, and through his claims, through this marriage, to the rich French pro vinces ot Poitou and Guienne three ThA One Da v.

C THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, centuries of war were incurred that desolate'! France and cost her three millions of men. A note warning Csesar of the con spiracy against nis life was put into his hand by Artemidorus on the fatai Ides of March, but he was prevented from reading it by continual ealutes and addresses on bis way to the Senate, and he died with the means of saying his life in his band. The shifting of his tent by Octavius Cassar on the very night when the one he had pre viously occupied was captured by the forces of Brutus, saved the life of the future emperor and changed the des tinies of the world , A. violent shower which led Pope Julius II to return to the castle of St. Felix instead of proceeding on his journey saved him when the Chevalier Bayard was on the point of capturing him near Ferrara by surprise. Twice did Cliye, the predestined conqueror of India, try to end his own life, and twice did the pistol, although loaded, fail to go off. Surely," he exclaimed, "I am reserv ed for something great I" So the gloomy and taciturn Wallenstein's character underwent a complete change after he fell without injury from a great height. Luther, the master spirit of the Reformation, was turned from the study of the law to a monastic life by a bolt of lightning, which killed a fellow student by bis side ; and it was a chance wound, received by a soldier of fortune at the siege of Pampeluna in 1520. that led to the foundme of bat powerful society, the Order of Jesuits, which arrested the victorious march of the Reformation in more than halt of Europe. Shakespeare, with his profound knowledge of human life, makes some of the most tragic events hinge on the most trifling circumstances. Poor Des- demona's fate hangs on the accidental dropping of a handkerchief. The un happy deaths of Romeo and Juliet re sult from miscarriage of a letter. Wolser falls from the pinnacle of his glory through one fatal misstep, which not all his deep sagacity can retrieve. The author of the ballad of Lillibullero boasted that he had rhymed James II out of three kingdoms. A grain of sand in the glands of Cromwell chang ed the fate ot England and restored the Stuarts to the throne . Frederick the Great, when almost overwhelmed by the mighty combination of his enemies, was saved by the death at that critical moment of Elizabeth, Empress of Rus sia, the bitterest of his foes. Had Cor sica not been sold by Genoa to France in 1768 Napoleon, who was born only a year afterward, would not have been a French citizen and would not have overturned nearly all the kingdoms of Europe and sacrificed millions ot lives. It was a typographical error that gave to his nephew the title of Napoleon III. There was sent to all the Bonapartist adherents throughout France a sort ot procalmation with the words: "Let the watch-cry be, Vive Napoleon I! 1" The printer mistook the three exclama tion points for III, printed the docu ment accordingly and soon the com munes were raising the cry for Napo leon III. A series of accidents en abled the wasted and baffled Wolfe to scale the Heights of Abraham and capture Quebec. Had the French sen tries who bad been told that provision boats were to go down the St. Lawrence to Quebec on the night that- Wolfe climbed the heights been informed that Bougainville had countermanded the order ; had not Verger, who com manded at the Anse du Foulon, where Wolfe made his ascent, kept careless watch that night and gone to bed ; had the battalion ol Guienne taken post, as ordered, on the Plains of Abraham, instead of remaining encamped by the St. Charles River, Wolfe would proba- lv not have won his victory and Cana da and the Mississippi Valley would then have remained under the crown of France. An egg is a small thing, yet the egg product of this country has in some years been of double the value of the silver product and far exceeds the yalue of the product of pig iron. Some of the deadliest diseases spring from causes seemingly insignificant. Will not the scratch of a pin cause lockjaw, and is not a prick by the lancet of a surgeon, which has been used in dis section, fatal to life? Catherine de Medici had a ring with a tiny spring from which, when pressed by the fin ger, came forth the most deadly poison, and she inhaled death from the petals of a rose. Hannibal carried with him the means of suicide, by which be might escape Roman vengeance, in a drop of poison concealed in a ring. Perfection in the arts depends upon trifles. The final touches of the pen cil or chisel determine the character of the painting or the statue. A sin gle line beneath the eyes or in the curve of the lips renders the work of I I Beat Cough Syrnp. TarteaOood. Uael I the painter or sculptor immortal. The change of a word may destroy the mag ic of poetry and eloquence. Talley rand condensed a volume of sarcasm in the transposition of a single letter in an interjection of two letters. He ac knowledged a pathetic letter from a friend, announcing her widowhood, with a note of two words : 'Oh ! madam." When, a few weeks after ward, she was about to marry, he re plied : "Ho ! ho ! madam." When a person was asked whether a certain lawyer bad become rich by his prac tice "No," was the reply ; "ny his practices." How often does a little thing a look, a lifting of the eyebrow, a quiver of the lip, a telltale blush, a peculiari ty in the handwriting reveal the hid den secrets of the soul ! "In what part of the letter did you discover hesita tion?" said a diplomatist to Talleyrand. "In the n's and g's," was tbe reply. Robert Hall, who married a servant-girl, was captivated by the way she put coals on tbe fire. How often has the pettiest and appar ently most insignificant circumstance subjected a man to unjust suspicions of guilt, or, again, led to the detection of crime ! Home Tooke, when on trial for high treason, said that he was a miserable victim of two prepositions and a conjunction. How often has the watermark in a sheet of p tper or parchment exposed a forgery, and the print ot a nail or a foot betrayed a thief or a murderer ! How often has the omission or change of a word or letter vitiated a writ, a deed, or a will ! The discrepancy between the words Sheriffs of London" in a capias and "Sheriff of London" in the copy served on the defendant, was declared a iatal variance in an important case The omission of a single word "Glou cester" in the drawing of a will de prived tbe intended deyisee of estates yielding 14,000 a year. How truly has tbe Autocrat sung : "One vague inflection spoils the whole with doubt ; One trival letter ruins all, left out. A knot can choke a felon into clay ; A knot can save him, spelled without tbe k. The smallest word has some unguarded spot. And danger lurks in i without a dot." Dr. W. H. Lewis, Lawrenceville.Va., writes, "I am using Kodol Dyspepsia Cure in my practice among severe cases of indigestion and find it an admirable remedy." Many hundreds of physi cians depend upon the use of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure in stomach troubles. It digests what you eat, and allows you to eat all tbe good food you need, providing you do not overload your stomach. Gives instant relief and a permanent cure. E. T.

Dr. Johnson once met the village postman trudging along tbe dusty road on a hot summer afternoon. The post man observed that he had still a mile to walk just todeliver one newspaper.

The way ol the rich young man who would be something more than. "The Old Man's Son" is hard. The world has grown used to seeing the second generation dissipate in woakues.? what the first accumulated in strength. For under the shadow of a giant fortune, those elemental qualities of character which are developed snd knotted hard by a free and unsheltered struggle with the world grow eolt and sappy. Often er than not, ability is not enough. Un trained, untried, undirected in a strug gle for advancement, it may be an ele ment of weakness instead oi strength. So, though the world has nothing hut respect for the "old manV pocketbork, of the son it, is not so sure. Honors may be his for the risking, but they are sham honors: valueless because unearned ; neither satisfying him nor deceiving the public ; lacking the salt that gives them savor ; making nim look beside the man who holds tLem by right of conquest like a goldlaced General ot militia beside the scarred old Colonel who has ?abred his way up from the ranks. When young Vanderbilt, by all ac counts an earnest and an ambitious young man, went as a delegate to a recent political convention, he became a congressional possibility within twenty-four hours, and there was no yellow journal but did him the rever ence ol a "front-page story." Yet all that was not recognition ot transcendent genius in young Vanderbilt himself, buttibute to "The Old Man's Son." Not until he has borne out the pro mise of his earnestness, will he become a "front page story," for a better ren- son. Any young man whose father left ( him a suflicient number of stock cer- -tificates can be elected director in half a dozen companies, but the world will j say ' pull ;" or he may even o to Con gress and it will cry "barrel." He must demonstrate his ability again and again before he can secure recog nition for his Individuality. FOR OVER I'li": Y YEARS.
