The Senate hijis passed the bill for a 25 pe^ cetat^ iacreatie in the sala ries of United States judges. Amendments to increase salaries of Congressmen were on the contrary voted down.

John Wanamaker says: “A new paper whose columns overflow with advertisements of business men has more influence attracting atten tion to building up attovn; than any other ageney'that catt be ‘employed. People go where there is business.

' If the rules regarding conduct there had always been as strict as the rules on cleanliness, a great deal of the ‘‘dirty linen” might not not have bee^ wa|di«d i'B public at the recent Concessional investigation on haz ing.—Durham Sun. Mr. Gibson, the Tennessee Repub lican, who has drawn a Trojan- horse sort of force bill, says, “My bill does not aim to protect the negro. I am willing to leave the black man alone.” The Republicans have never cared anything for the negrti except to giye them political strength. Mr. Gibson is at least not a hypocrite now.—Raleigh News and Observer. E+ery intelligent person in North Carolina and Virginia knows that but for the Cigarette Trust, tobacco would be \nuch higher than it is. Some competition has sprung up in spite of the trust, and there have been two short crops in succession. This accounts for the iinproved con dition of the market. With any thing approximating a full crop, prices will'go down, down, unless something is done to strengthen the hands pf the independent manufac turers —Webster’s Weekly. .

Office at the Dirug Store. ORtaiNAL OBSERVATIONS . Eternal indigestion is the price of pie. Energy and enterprise are the wings of genius. The best way to shorten your days is to retire early. A pretty girl is a poem in which every line rhymes. Many people ktiow just bow to do what they can’t do. You often find a five cent heart in a miljion dollar body. Bread cast upon the waters often comes back all dough. All things come to those who wait —if they tip the waiter. You can’t extract politeness from a man with the toothache. The best way to make tooth pow ders is tO;grind your teeth.. liove'fe an itching of the heart which you are un%ble to scratch" It is the man who can’t raise the wind who does the most blowing. - Many people who are short on brains are powerful long on brass. You can have bicyc}e,on the brain without having wheels in your head. Tears of sympathy are telephone messages from a heart full of tender- iss. ^ - • ■ . The better men and women know each other the less they say about ideals. Gorman used to be a page in the Senate, but he is now a whole vol- umn. No doubt the devil complains that he could do more if it wasn’t for his environment.' Those Louisiana congressmen al ways “raise cane” when there is talk free sugar from C uba. Mrs. Carrie Nation has lost her toe, but the Constitutional Conven tion hasn’t lost its tongue. A Kansas man has been fined $10 for smiling in church. Kansas is a prohibitionist State, you know. - When the cold wave conies from its haunts in the west, ’tis then that the thermometer pulls down its yest.. An order has been issued csmpcll- itlg the Indians to have their hair cut. This will be a hairrowing af fair. .Gov. Montague ought not to com plain »pf any weakness during his term— he has a strong staff to lean on — eighteen — colonels. ^ Orange , Observer,: Public and Privste Morality The. New York Bookman lately writing of a new and much read book entitled *‘The Making of an American,” by a foreign born bojr, now Jacob A. Riis, begins with this very pertinent opinion, that is doubt less true: ‘‘Good men are more frequent than good citizens. Many a man who is kind, fair and honest with bis fellow- men in his direct dealings with them is thoroughly corrupt commercially and politicaliy. The common “heeler’^ is often an upright, kind-hearted and honorable man, as far as he can see but he doesn’t see far enough to. be honest in business, and especially in politics.” It is beca,use of this proneness to evil and low standards of living that we have so often insisted upon the impoirtaQce,tbe imperative necessity, of educating the morals as well as the mind or hand. Why shall there be a different standard in our land for personal and political honesty for a conscience for private life and an obliteration or relegation of that great growing principle in business and public life ? Is it not beca&se this as given in the Bookman—that “while the conscience of the com munity has become developed in regard to private morality, it has not become correspondingly aroused in public morality. “Get there” about an only dictum of public ethics in business—believed in by men who have a sensitive conscience in ordinary morality.—Wilmington Messenger. A few years ago it was said that 40,000,000 advertising calendars have been given away in a single year, at a cost of .^1,000,000. This year, it is stated, most of the leading establishments will not distribute calendars, preferring to add the sum they would cost to their newspaper advertising appropriations! ' Nearly all Schemes of publicity are worth something, but it is undeniable that the v»ry best is newspaper advertis ing.—Philadelphia Record. The part that cotton seed is play ing now in enriching the southern planters is not to be overlooked. It has become indeed a factor of profit, and most important help to the mill owners. A great many cotton seed mills were operating last year, and they used 53 per cent, of the whole seed product. Other mills are build ing and during 1902 the number will be much increased and old ones are enlarging. Tbe manufactured pro ducts from the seeds in 1901, added to the crop, brought up the figures t o $119,208,296, increasing the cotton crop $42,411,835. This was from but 53 per cent. If the entire out. put had been used, it would have been over $80,000,000.—Wilmington Messenger. Saved Her Child’s Life. “In three weeks our chubby little boy was changed by Pneumonia al most to a skeleton,” writes Mrs. W. Watkins, of Pleasant City, O. “A terrible cough set in, that, in spite of a good doctor’s treatment for several weeks, grew worsA every day. We then used Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, and our darling was soon sound and well. We are sure this grand medi cine saved his life,” Millions know it is the oiily sure cure for Coughs, Colds and all hing diseases. For salo by Jno, L. Bailey ft Co.
