The remarkable adaptability of Grape-Nuts food to stomachs so dis ordered that they will reject every thing else, is illustrated by the case of a woman in Raclae, Wis. ( "Two years ago." the says, "I was attacked by a stomach trouble so se rious that for a lons time I could not take much of any sort of food. Even the various kinds prescribed by the doctor produced most acute pain. "We then got some Grape-Nuts food, and you can imagine my surprise and delight when I found that I could eat it with a relish and without the slight est distress. "When the doctor beard of it he told me to take several small portions each day. because he feared I would grow tired of It as I had of all other food. -• "But to hia surprise, (and that of everybody else), I did not tire of Qrape-Nuts, and became better day by day, till, after some weeks, my stom ach entirely recovered and I was sbls to eat anything my appetite craved. "My nerves, which had become so weakened that I feared I would be come insane, were also restored by the Grape-Nuts food In connection with Postum which has become our table beverage.

Raleigh—Wake County Farmers' Convention met in regular session in the court house and besides transact ing the regular routine business pass some important resolutions relative to the work of the convention. The resolution in question scores the method of reporting the delivery sales in the various cotton markets and the same as being unfair. The convention also urged the farmers not to sell their cotton seed to the oil mills while the present insufficient prices prevail. It is claimed the prices now do not even pay for fer tilizer value.

The resolution passed regarding the reporting of the sale in the cotton marketa is as follows: Whereas, the custom appears to prevail In reporting dally sales in the various cotton markets of the country the distinction is not made between actual cotton and futures. Resolved, That our members of Congress be requested to endeavor to have enacted such a law as will pre vent this unfair practice being longer continued and that all such reports show the sale of actual cotton made and futures sold.

MAY LOSE THE NORFOLK LINE Charlotte Must Wake Up—Should Adhere-to The Request for Ter minal Sites In This City. Charlotte.—Charlotte stand a very good chance to lose the annexation of the Norfolk Southern. This is what Mr. W. S. Alexander, chairman of I the special committee from the Great er Charlotte Club, haa to say about it and he speaks not to unduly alarm, but duly to interest the people and the business interests of Charlotte in the opportunity. "The Norfolk South ern haa not determined to oome to Charlotte," says Mr. Alexander. "It can get its line to Knoxvtlle, Tenn., more directly by leaving Charlotte out, but its directors would like to get a local connection. They think that the people of Charlotte should furnish terminal sites if they go to the additional expense of building a line from Concord to this city. As I understand their plans, it ia the aim of the directors to build from Ral eigh to Concord, to connect with Ruth erfordton and then directly run to Knoxville, Tenn. The building of a road to Charlotte means that the ad ditional distance between Concord and Charlotte must be covered where as the more direct route would be from Concord to Rutherfordton. "I am still hopeful that the busi ness Interests of Charlotte will re spond to the call for subscriptions. Wo hardly expect to raise the full amount that will be necessary to procure the terminal sites that are desired, but we do want to be in a position to confront the directors of the road with a respectable donation as an evi dence of the public Interest In the en terprise." Forsyth County Needs Road Bonds. An issue of $12f % 000 In bonds tor construction and maintenance of roads to Forsyth county is needed, according to a statement of Mr. W. L.

The county has an income an nually for road-building of $76,000. The debt should be gotten rid of first, says Mr. Spoon, and then the income of $75,000 a year would make poßoi ble the construction and maintenance of a fine system of roads. During the few months Mr. Spoon has been road engineer of Forsyth he has done splendid work, utilizing tnoney in practical fashion and the county com missioners and the public generally are giving him high praise for what he has already accomplished. An Attempted Jail Delivery. The prompt action and forethought of Jailer John Branch of Wilming ton and the ready assistance offered him by one of the negro prisoners are all that prevented the probable escape of twenty-five men confined In the county jail awaiting trial in superior court. Jailer Branch suffered no in juries other than some painful bruises and scratches. Robert Hennigan, a big negro, held on a charge of store breaking, was the leader in the at tempted delivery.

It began with acales on my body, 1 suffered untold itching and burning, and could not aleep. I was greatly disfigured with scales and crusts. My ears looked as if they had been most cut off w4th a razor, and my n«ck was perfectly raw. I suffered untold agony and pain. I tried two doctors who said I had eczema in Its fullest stage, and tßat it could not bo cured. I then tried other rem edies to no avail. At last, I tried a set of the genuine Cutlcura Remedies, which cured me of eczema when all sis* had failed, therefore I cannot pralae them too highly. "I suffered with eczema about ten months, but am now entirely cured, and I believe Cutlcura Remedies are the best skin cure there is." (Signed) Miss Mattle J. Shaffer, R. F. D. 1, Box $, Dancy, Miss., Oct. 27, 1910. "I had suffered from eczema about four years when holla began to break out on different parta of my body. It started with a fine red raah. My back was affected first, when it also spread over my face. The Itching was almost unbearable at times. I tried different soaps and salves, but nothing seemed to help me until I began to use the Cutlcura Soap and Ointment. One box of them cured me entirely. 1 recommended them to my sister for her baby who was troubled with tooth eczema, and they completely cured her baby." (Signed) Mrs. F. L.
