THE GUARDIAN OF OUR BODY. The foremost biologist of our dav. M Metschnikoff, has shown the world of science that there are leucocytes in our blood that act as scavengers or policemen These policemen which are called phago cytes look out for the noxious or poisonous elements in our blood. Various offending elements are picked out of the blood ana tissues by these policemen and destroyed Therefore our lives are protected by these blood-cell-policemen, the phagocytes, and we enjoy immunity from disease so long as our bl<?od contains plenty of phago cytes and red blood corpuscles. "A new broom sweeps clean"?and in order to put our own house in order we must get rid of all the poisons in the blood with a new broom such as an alterative extract made from roots and herb*?with out the use of alcohol, as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, a specific for making rich red blood?for eradicating the poisons from the blood. In some way the policemen in the blood are increased in number and strength?ao that we are put in the best possible shape to resist disease ?to cure neuralgia, colas, catarrh, and in cipient consumption. "The more study and time is given to the subject the more we find that the blood is the center of life "?says Dr. K. V. Pierce, the noted specialist of Buffalo, "the health and comfort of the average person depends entirely on this blood supply?for the heart must have pure blood or it will not pump and keep the body supplied regularly like the beautiful automatic engine it is. The nerves must be fed on pure blood?or we suffer the pain of neuralgia, which is the cry of the starved nerves for food. Head aches, cold in the head, catarrh?and many other things are due to stagnation of the blood." Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are a mild laxative No other medicine equals them for gentleness and thoroughness. L. H. MLLRED, Attorney-At-Law SELMA.N. C. Will Practice In all the Courts. J. JW.

The companies restrained by Judge Phillips were charged with giving rebates directly to packing house companies and ship pers of grain, while those enjoined by Judge (Jrosseup were alleged to have given rel ates indirectly in the matter of switching charges. Mr. Purdy has had considerable ex perience in the prosecution of cor porations in the federal courts. He was born in Mogadore, O., in 1866, and graduated in 1891 from the University of Minnesota.

ARTIST AND AUTHOR. Rose Cecil O'Neill onrt Her Work With Pen and Pencil. Ihere has been a good deal of ro mance In the career of Mrs. Harry Leon Wilson, who is better known to the public as Rose Cecil O'Neill. Mrs. Wilson has won fame as au Illustrator and as a .writer of verse and of fiction. A year or two ago she published her first novel, "The Loves of Edwy," but she bad been known for some years through her contributions to magazines and weeklies. Her jokes and illustra tions took off cleverly the follies and foibles of high and low life. Her hus band is the author of several success ful novels, and when she first met him he was the literary editor of Puck. She was then Mrs. Gray Latham. Before her marriage to Mr. Latham, a Wall street broker, her talent as an illus trator and joke writer had won atten MH8. HARRY I.tON WILSON. tion from the public. She then signed her contributions simply "O'Neill." When she been me Mrs. I.uthnm she added lier hnsbniKl's mime In Nam ing her work. writing the signature "O'Xelll-Lathnm." Her first marriage proved an unfortunate one, and she obtained a divorce and actively re sumed her literary and artistic work. This brought her Into frequent Inter course with .Mr. Wilson, who had short ly before that time succeeded to t o late II. c. Banner's chair iu the ohlee of Puck, lie admired the fair nrtist's work and engaged her to illustrate a novel he then hud ready for the press entitled "The Spenders." Admiration for the nrtlst herself was soon added to admiration for her talents. The book and the wedding were announced ibout the same time. A DECADE OF WMJS. What They Cost In Wen and Money, and What They Gained. The agreement at Portsmouth do6es a decade of almost eon tinuous warfare. In the last ten years there have been five great conflicts The empires of China, (ireat Britain. Japan, Russia and Turkey, the kingdom of -ipain and the American republic have all tried the arbitrament of ? he sword. Out of a total popu lation of about 1,400,000,00(1 war has been the portion ot p chaps 1,190,000,000. Nearly | .'5,000,000 men have seen service! in the field. About $5,300,000, 000 has been sacrificed in indem nities and war expences. Japan opens as well as closes ! this sanguinary decade. In its war with China, which was con cluded by the treaty of Shimo noseki April 17, 1895, it put 00,979 men in the Held, and lost 4,110 of them; spent about $73, 000,000, and collected $140, 000,000 iu indemnity. China had over 100,000 men in the Held, and lost about 20,000 in killed and wounded. War was declared between Greece and Turkey, Aprill,1897, and concluded iu thirty-one days. Turkey put 200,000 men in the field and Greece 100,000. Greece paid an indemnity of $18,000, 000. The United States declared war against Spain April 24, 1898, and signed the protocol August 12, 1898. It had 200, 000 men under arms, of whom 2.910 lost their lives, all but 396 of disease. It speut $105, 000,000. The Spanish forces at Santiago numbered 23,300, in Porto Rico 17,000, and at Ma nila 11,000. Spain's losses, di rect and indirect, amounted to $600,000,000. Its losses in killed and wounded were about 3,000 men. It had already lost $374,000,000 and 100,000 men in attempting to repress the last Cuban rebellion. Great Britain and the Boer] republics went to war October 11,1899, and concluded peace May 31, 1902. The Boers put 73,000 men in the field, of whom 4,400 died of wounds and disease, and 32,000 were captured. Great Britain put 448,000 men in the Held, of whom 21,942 lost their lives in battle or from disease. The war cost it about $1,030, 000,000. Russia and Japan went to war February 8, 1904, and con cluded hostilities August 29, 1905. Russia sent 840,000 men to the front, of whom it is esti mated 192,000 have been killed or wounded. Japan sent 700, 000 men to the front, of whom 154,000 have been killed or wounded. The expenditure of neither power is definitely known, but their joint war bills will be about $2,000,000,000., As a set-off to all this waste of energy and human life and wealth, the United States has island possessions?an "empire," as some of its people call them? Great Britain has assured itself an empire in South Africa, Tur key has shown the small Balkan powers that it would be fatal to provoke its anger, Japan has settled it that farther Asia shall expand under its leadership rather than that of China or Russia. It is worthy of note that the only important group of civilized States in the world that has been at peace in the last decade is that over whose destinies the socalled "war lord" presides. The triple alliance has not drawn the sword. It had enough of that in the generation preceding our own, when Prussia conducted three wars, Austria three, and Italy three.?New York Mail.

En ountered Eclipse ol Sun and a Storm at Mid Ocean. I'rof J. A. Jones, superinten lent of the public schools at Fayetteville, arrived in Raleigh vesterdav afternoon on hie way home fram a European trip of cen weeks. " America is God's country and I am prouder of the 1'uited1 States than I ever was before,'- [ remarked Professor Jones. "Tbej scenery cn the Rhine does not! surpass that on the Hudson, I and the mountains of Switzer-j laud do not present tnorebeauti-1 iul views than the mountains ol North Carolina." Mr. Jones spent several weeks [ in Rerlin studying the public j schools there, and lie found that I the system in New England was , uot a whit behind. L'pon his; return he came on the steamer Chemnitz and last Wednesday : encountered at mid-ocean the total eclipse of the sun. It was j followed the next day by a fear ful hurricane and even the upper decks of the great steamer were swept by the waves.?Raleigh Post 9th. Six hundred Millionfor Advertising Some people say that adver tising will not pay. Thev are either misinformed or do not think. The most influential thing in the world to-day is newspaper advertising. It has a commanding voice and when it speaks the world moves. A! great battle has been fought in Russia, and in less than twenty four hours all the civilized world knows it. The newspaper telle the story. Newspaper advertising in fiuences the public in a quiet, in ceptive manner. It acts both directly and indirectly. It com mands the attention of the busi ness man in his store, the king on his throne; the workingman in his shop; the professional man in his office; the manufacturer in his factory; the farmer on his farm; the railroad man on hie train; the woman in her home, and all classes and conditions of people. The wise business man knows that he can influence almost govern?trade through the aid of the newspaper. There are many business men struggling and worrying to make both ends meet. They seem to have adopted every other honest j avenue of influencing trade ex cept newsoaper advertising. Right here their hearts fail them. : They say it costs too much? but they do not consider the re turns they get from it. They think too much about dividends and not enough about the con ditions necessary to make these dividends. Newspaper advertising is one of these conditions?perhaps the most important condition. It has such commanding influence that about six hundred million dollars is annually spent in the United States to gain that in fluence. Tne fortunes it makes justify the expenditure.?-Mer chants Journal. Tough on Frogs. The Newton correspondent cf the Charlotte News gives a new sort of treatment for typhoid j fever as follows: "Your correspondent, like oth-' er people, lives and learns. Hej discovered yesterday that a I toad applied to the foot cf a j fever patient and kept there, would certainly cure the patient. It may be that the same is a well known remedy, known of old, but it is new here. A young man in this county has been very low with typhoid fever for sever al weeks; so ill, in fact, that the physicians gave him up to die. Another young man once suffer ed with typhoid and took the frog treatment and was cured, and so the treatment was ap plied to the patient mentioned with gratifying results. The young man is reported as con valescing. The toads, the story runneth, turn green and die, hav ing drawn all the fever from the patient. It seems to be an ex cellent remedy but it is tough on the frog." HAS STOOD THE TEST 25 YEAR8. The old, original GROVE'S Tasteless Chill Tonic. You know what you are taking.

The last one was the worst, and the fever then spread to 132 towns and killed 15,934 out of the 74,000 who had it. rrx.'3"x:rr::*:rxirra^xi;*;r*:tr;:rr.TTrx: x-x::x: WMJM-Mt;:!! !
