AGED MINISTER WRITES Editor Brevard News; ' I wish to say to my friends that I am very feeble—almost helpless Am now in my 90th year; and having been actively engaged in the service of God for 77 years and have been preaching the gospel faithfully' for 65 years. Have preached nearly all over North Carolina and more or less in Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee. Have baptised peo ple in the waters of nearly every river in the state, and creeks, pools and baptistries beyond rememberance and some in the Atlantic Ocean. I haye baptised thousands of believers. I have never used tobacco in any way whatever, never drank any whiskey or intoxicating liquor. Iwas never in a theatre or bar room, nor ball room, never saw people dance, never played cards and never swore an oath. I have tried to live a clean life and without any egotism I leave my re cord an heritage to my children and the rising generation. I ^oubt there being a man living or dead who has enjoyed life more than I have, if as much. I have had a great deal of heaven on earth. I desire above all things for my conduct and conversa tion to meet the approbation of God. There is nothing on earth like being a devoted, consecrated Christian and church member. Sincerely, F. M. JORDAN. YOUR HEALTH A Tae Ijs watches with interest the renewal of the agitation for a rail road from Brevard to Greenville, knowing that if one comes that far it will be a matter of vital interest to Henderson county. Agitation has]>een so frequent on this subject that people are inclined at times to treat tliis^at- ter as a joke, but it is usuall^the cause for a ripple of rumors an^some day we expect something to happen that will result in the almost re-m^- ing of that county. Railway connec tion with the south would do this. Transylvania is not alone- in this dream. Henderson and Buncombe and sometimes Haywood and Rutherford all dream with her and should things begin to assume definite shape in Transylvania for a railroad we believe that its benefits would be so manifest Why quarantine against infectious and contagious diseases? Great as the advances in medicine and surgery are, wonderful as the results already attained in controlling human suffer ing the day has not yet dawTied upon a world free from diseases or the means of controlling successfully with each and every human ailment. So far as I am aware physicians have but one specific diphtheria antitoxin a remedy which curse in 99 per cent of ^ases if used in time after the disease is manifested. The time is far distant when every disease can be coped with as can diptheria. In the bill of preventive medications we have vaccination against smallpox and typhoid fever. Vaccination against smallpox has practically eli- matcd that disease so completely that there is now a large following v/hose business appears to be a persistent efForc to deny its value. The records of every army in the world bear wit ness to the value of typhoid vaccina tion also worth of tetanus antitoxin as a protection against tetanus. See ing how little has been accomplished as to positive cure and prevention of diseases it is incumbent upon every one to co-operate with health author ities in an effort to control disease. During the period of Napoleon’s j day of power it was said that a mar- ; shalls baton bight lie in the knapsack : of any French soldier. Today it is ! possible that something of great val ue from a medical standpoint is latent j in the brain of any boy or girl, I It is true that a quarantine while ] in force works some hardship upon I any family but the time designated I in each case has been determined by men who are the best qualified to de cide such matters and are not arbi trary dicission. Then too, take* the case of our schools. < Very sincerely, ^ ^ W. J. WALLIS. REVjummTnVTE Prof. Tro^« day from the tirfjensboro. Jollp’L. the we^. his dau.8rhtel Mrs. 3.
