Will be Represented by
ial Committee to Solicit Funds
For The Erection. Work to
Begin in April.
Notwithstanding the very un
favorable weather conditions,
an enthusiastic meeting was
held la# evening in the Com
tnissiners' room of the d)urt
house, and arrangements per
feded for a whirlwind campaign
to raise funds for the eredion of
a Pitt County Confederate Mon
ument.
Governor Jarvis, ading as
chairman, called the meeting to
order and- after n few remark*
on the subjed introduced Mr.
Erne# R. Carroll of Raleigh,
who had been- invited to come
down and present plans for rais
ing the nccessary funds. Carroll
outlined his plans, an - named
some of the places where the
work has been conduced along
this line and Msarod tb? com
miiiythiMlyn.nl. ?? .?mil
could easily be raised
It being necessary to hav* a
committee to arrange the details
preparatory to launching this
campaign, the following com
mittee was named:
Mr. F. C. Harding, chairman.
Col. R. R. Cotten, Messrs. J. G.
Moye, R. L. Cair, Richard Wil
liams, D. C. Moore, secretary,
Mesdames John L. Woolen,
Chas. O'H. Laughinghouse, T.
E. Hooker and R. J. Cobb.
Mr. Harding assured those
present that- the committee
would at once become adive in
the interest of Pitt at.d the mon
ument. .V committer from each
Township in the county to press
the work will soon be named,'
and the Work v. ill be so divided
up as to require only ten or fif
teen minute* per day from each
vvotker to raise the funds. Every
one will be given an opportunity
:o help in this work. The school
children are to have part in the
advertising, and even the public
dray on the Street will helv- ta
boo# the work.
The campaign will be launch
ed with a Workers' Dinner Con
ference on Monday evening
April 6th, a&d five days is the
mnimum time for the raising of
the required amount, $18.00. It
will be remembered that an Ad
was passed by the' la# general
assembly privileging the Com
missioners to appropriate $1500
to thi* monument fund.
Mr. Harding, the chairman
and Mr. Moore, secretary, ore
enthusiastic over the prosped*.
The plain for raking this money
is pronounced clever by them,
and they are counting on the
people to work and the gener
osity of the men to give. L6t
our people begin at once to
think monument, talk monument
and, when they arc called on,
to work for the monument. At
an early date we hope to be able
to print a likeness of the monu
ment giving description of same.

FAXMVILLE NEEDS.
Farmville has n number
need* al this lime, and one of I
most important of these is mu r
dwelling houses. At the presftt
lime there are no vacant resi
dences in Farmville. Constancy
we hear of some one looking p
place to locate who would i '
come to Farmville i' he _
only get a good house to live 1
Only a few weeks ago a gentj
man wanted to move to this tc
and could scarcely findasur
house. He was wiling to t
good large rental for a suitat
house and finally sccu.ed
Many other people would i
here if a good dwelling cot.
had. Our good school, our \
advantages and the locati
rlace make it a suitable re
tial town. Now, if some '< _
wide awake citizens who _
money to invent will ered ft
good neat five and six, or ?
seeen-room cottages tbey will
only be helping the town but I
will be making an inve
that will pay them well
years come and go. We ?
the dwellings and it is hoped t
the present year will see ;
neec' supplied in an adeqt
manner.
How It Worked
A country gentleman
ty hid ibis house fitted .
trie bells, and giving i
"SB "
]y, Joseph, that when I ring once
I want you, and when I ring twice
I wont Maggie, the housemaid."
The bell rang. Joseph never
moved. Presently it rang again
and Maggie hurried to her mgs^
ter, who was very angry.
"Why didn't that rascal Joseph
come when I rang for him?" do
manded the gentleman.
"Why, sir," answered Maggie
"Joseph was busy reading the pa
er when he heard the firft ring,
and he stud to mc, 'Now, Maggie
wait until master rings again, and
then it will be you he wants.'

TAX LAW
Rules to be Observed by Income
Tax Payers of Country. Treas
ury Officials Issue Booklet to
Clear Up Misunderstanding
A bout -Law.
Washington.? After weeks of
Study of the complexities of the
income tax law, treasury officials
Issued a 90-page booklet, christ
ened it "Regulations No. 33,"
and sent it forth to ^colledora of
internal revenue in the expoda
ri that it will clear up many
the misunderstandings con
Truing the law which h5s arisen
iroughout thecountry.
It takes twenty-three pages of
book to set forth the law it
but Sixty pages arc used iu
t how the net income to be
it ascertained by the tax
r, when and Where tax muSl
what penalties will be
for non payment, what
iplions and deductions will
ed. Many pages are de
an explanation of that
the law imposing a 1 per
tax on tbe income of all
is, which replaces the
ition tax.
_ i officials are confr
this booklet will prove
taxpayer! which wili
regulations in the future when
oevv points are raised. The book
doe* not contain a new set of
regulations, but is a compilation
in com pad form of the ones al
ready issued, with explanations
6f points never before discussed.
Under the law partnerships
are not subject to the tax, but the
regulations provide that annunl
profit from a partnership paid to
members shall be included in
their returns, and where such
profits are undistributed and un
paid they muSl be ascertained
and included in the individual's
returns for taxation juSt the
same.
When persons taxable refuse
to make the proper liSl or return
or makes false return, the regu
lations provide that the proper
colledor of internal revenue
shall, after due notice, tnake the
return tor such person and the
tax shall be assessed on this re
turn, with a 50 or 100 per cent,
penalty added. Returns rauSt be
verified by oaths ot affirmation.
Returns shni' be sent by colled
ors to the commissioner of inter
41 revenue in Washington by
registered mail. Taxes unpaid
after June 30 shall bring a penal
ty of 5 per cent.
It is officially estimated that
the promoters of get-rich-quick
schemes and other fraudtent en
terprises using; the mails, have
robbed the American public of
$129,000,000 in two years. It is
declared intention ol postal au
thorities to enforce with increas
ed rigor the present regulations
that are designed- to exclude the
swindler from the mails.

made by the farmers of the Old
North State .in four years. Judg
ing the future by the pafl with
an ndditional impctus, the farm

When constipation is having
its cvii effeds on your body and
'brain, Nature is doing her besS

cause itself. But usually Nature
cannot do this unaided.
In the pa&, many sufferers at
such a time used to turn to dan
gerous calomel in hope of releif.
For some people calomel does
appear to give a temporary ben
efit, but as a matter of fac't it is n
poison that proves to be injur
ious and even dangerous to
many. If you have ever taken
cornel you probab'v have suf
fered from evil coudiiions follow
ing: its use.
But nowadays great numbers
of people have learned how to
feel better, brighter and health
ier by taking Dodsou's Liver
Tone in^lead of calomel. Indeed,
