' M t CGrccfr"t krs-w'; IP GASTONIA COCA-COLA ITX I HILL'S ONLY NEWSPAPER. - Empire Builder Once Owned St Paul Globe Doomed from tlif Start. He Wiped Out Even Memo- ryot It. "The mplre builder" once ven tared into the newspaper field. For few. years he owned the St. Paul Globe, says the Editor and Publlsn ; er. Whatever may have been bis pur . poae in controlling a daily paper, that purpose failed. Mr. Hill killed the Globe. He did not seek to realize a penny on the sale of even its ma chinery and fixtures. As we recall , the matter, he ordered these to be scrapped. He did not wish apparent ly to have the paper survive his own ership. He sought to erase it, even the memory of it, and he succeeded. . The Globe had attained to influ ence and prestige in the northwest. When Mr. Hill became its owner its V readers and supporters became sus picious. They inferred things. Tbey imputed motives. If the Globe ex pressed an opinion upon a matter or public import, that opinion was sup posed to coincide with some interest of Mr. Hill's. The paper under his ownership was conducted on broader lines thaa before. , It was more pro gressive. More money was spent in making it a representative newspa per. But this did not avail. The paper was doomed. -. ltwas doomed because it had been acquired by a man of vast pow er, supposedly to serve merely that man's interests and to help furtner bis plans. The strange spectacle was presented of a newspaper, back ed by limitless resources, declining steadily and rapidly in those things which make a newspaper a force In a 'community the confidence of its readers and the influence it exerted upon their thought and opinion. Realizing this and disgusted with bis adventure into tine field of news paper .making, Mr. Hill killed tne Globe. Thereafter he sought public understanding, so far as he cared to have It, through interviews and pub lic addresses, always widely quoted and commented upon by the press of the whole country. The case of the St. Paul Globe af- - forded final proof, If any proof at all were necessary, that a newspaper cannot exist, cannot grow, cannot earn profits, unless it exists for pub lic service. There must never be any doubts, any misgivings, on the part of its readers as to the motives back of such service. .And therein lies the security of a democracy, for aa uncontrolled press is indeed a democracy's greatest asset.

Robert, a boy of 14, thought for a time, trying in vain to recall wno came next in succession. At last a happy inspiration came to him, and he answered: "The undertaker." WHY YOU ARE IMOUS The nervous system is the alarm system of the human body. In perfect health we hardly realise that we have a network of nerves; but when health is ebbing, when strength is declin ing, the same nervous system gives the alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful slerp, irritability and unless corrected. leids straight to a breakdown. To correct nervousness. Scott's Emul sion is exactly what you should take; its rich nutriment gets into the blood and rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while tne whole system responds to its refresh' lug tonic force. It is free from alcohol. Scott a Bowne. Bloomfield. N. J. ICE! ICE!! ICE!!! Our ice is absolutely pure. . Delivered quickly anywhere in town. Phone us your order and give us atrial.
