State Distributor of Tanlac: "After a fair trial of Tanlac 1 have no hesitancy in pronouncing it one of the very best tonics and reme dies on the market. It Is all you claim fbr it and has worked such a wonderful change in my - physical condition within the past few weexs as to warrant my departure from an established rule and I heartily rec ommend it to those suffering with indigestion, nervousness end a gener al run-down condltidn. I unhesitat ingly pronounce TanMc one of the very best remedies offered the public and will convince the most skeptical of its true worth. "Yours very sincerely, (Signed) "M. W. LINCKE."

The local papers will be encouraged tn fflvA this- fAfltnrA a. trial And th merchants and chamber will lent them every assistance possible. Gas tonla can support a daily paper if It is a good one, and we win. The mercantile committee is urg ed to at once put into effect the ar rangements for rebate fares on out- of-town purchases. In addition to the above program there are some industrial matters which cannot be mentioned. Tbe program as outlined gives the chamber something definite to work toward and it is determined to ren der a real service to every commun ity and citizen in Gaston county. Tbe board authorized the secreta ry to employ a stenographer as an assistant. The secretary also reports that If there are any young mentor young ladles who have time on their hands that they would like to use in help ing their home city, the chamber can furnish them with plenty to do, provided they wish to do it gratis.

To the Editor of The Gazette: On. next Friday, July 21st, all tne county agents west of the Blue Ridge In the western district will gather at the State Test Farm near Statesville for a day's study of results from tne experiments that are being-carried on there. There are many interest ing experiments with fertilizers, cot ton, corn, wheat, oats, grasses nd orchard crops being conducted there. The agents are asked to come there and study these experiments at first hand so they win be better able to carry the results of theHest farm to the farmers. To make the work more Interest ing nd to get the farmers better ac quainted with the work the State is trying to do for them, each agent is asked to bring as many-farmers witn him as he can. Those who -attend are supposed to go through the country In automobiles and to visit some of tbe creameries, alfalfa fields and farm life schools that will be found along the road. This trip gives the farmers of Gaston county an opportunity to see what their neighbors are doing and to gather inspiration and facts that will be of great advantage to them in their farm operations. Mecklenburg, Lin coln and Catawba counties have promised large, delegations of farm ers at these meetings and it is hoped that Gaston county will not fall be hind her sister counties in the nui ber of farmers attending. If every farmer who has an auto mobile will Invite his neighbors to go with him and pay their part of the gasoline and oil bill there is no rea son why we should not have a very creditable showing at this meeting. I assure every one who goes that he will never regret spending the mon ey necessary to see what his State is doing for him and what other farm ers are doing for themselves. Talk it up among your friends and arrange to go. I would suggest that all. except those near the Lincoln line go by Charlotte and Mooresville. Those along the line can go by Newton, The roads either way are fine. All are supposed to meet at the court house in (Statesville as earls as pos sible Friday morning and go from there to the test farm in a body. If you are Interested in the trip and want more Information I will be glad to give it' f The Board of Trade of Statesville Is arranging dinner for all who go and Frank T. Meacham, who has charge of the test, farm, has an ex ceptionally fine melon patch, so I am Informed. - JAMES M. GRAY, County Agent. Gastonla, July 12,1916..

VVewsej" Old Im4v.I.K' In Tbe lutlaiate Letters of Hester Plozxi aud Penelope, Pennington," edit' ed ty. Oswald G. Knapp, appears an anecdote of most unusual old lady. There wa Mr. Sbelley in Sussex, says' Mrs. I1zzl ber sneering neigh bors called her Epistle and Gospel who had two maiden daughters. One broke ber leg and died at. about forty years 'of age. but tbe .other departed not until fire years ago. The doctors told ber mamma there was no' bope. and she piously resigned herself to tbe oss. "But tell me at least." cried sbe. ."what alls my poor child and of what can she possibly be dying?" "Of age, dear madam." answered ber physician. "Miss Sbelley was never strong, and seventy-six years hare nearly worn ber out" "Ob. dear! Is sbe really? Wby, I am ninety -four myself, and I am not dying of age!" She spoke truly and outlived her lit tle girl, as she called her, six years. The Land of Lest Beauty. Is there any land for lost and lovely things sunsets and jeweled nights snd emotions that have' been perfectly beautiful and that Just aren't alive any more? If there Isn't there ought to be some heaven where they could go on living and forever fulfilling their loveliness. This is not a personal sor row, and yet I ache with it As I sit here in my old maid's corner I am as tranquil as if I had realized matri mony; I am busy and happy and Just as much alive as most of my married friends. Of course they pity me; they feel as if life bad passed me by, and. In a way, it has, but I am infinitely sorrier for them, for they have lost something that I never had, and most of them don't even know that they have lost it That's the real tragedy of it Doesn't anything ever last? Or were Franceses and Juliet eternally happy because tbey ' could die and keep their dreams? I wonder I At lantic. A Maligned Bird. Long ago tbe phenomenal power of the stomach of tbe ostrich was immor talized In tbe idiom of all the world's great languages. To have the "stom ach of an ostrich'' Is the synonym for Incomparable digestive power, tbe su preme flight of gastric laudation. Those omnivorous beings of tbe dime museum who devour hardware in pub lic for so much per week are always down on the bills as "human ostriches." Well, to make a long story short the whole thing from beginning to end Is nature faking, pure and simple. As a matter of fact the ostrich, if not a confirmed dyspeptic, has a most deli cate digestion. Tbe largest single en try in ostrich mortality records Is acute indigestion. Tbe successful feed ing of ostriches In captivity requires constant care. British Press. A Superstitious Musician. Schumann was always inclined to superstition. -When he visited Beetho ven's grave at Vienna he found a rusty Bteel pen lying on it This be carefully and reverently preserved and after ward used In writing bis B flat sym phony, believing that it would bring him Inspiration. But this superstition, harmless enough In his early years, became accentuated later in an alarm ing manner. He began to take an un healthy Interest in table turning and spirit rapping. He was. moreover, in tensely Influenced by dreams and omens. One night be dreamed that tbe spirits, of Mendelssohn and Schubert appeared to blm and gave, him a theme which be afterward wrote down and developed. , "Whuppity Scooria. Tbe ancient custom at Lanark, Scot land, of "whuppity scoorle," tbe origin and meaning of which are lost is cele brated annually and watched by a crowd of grownups. The town bell is rung nightly at 6 o'clock from March to September and then lies dumb for six months. On tbe first night of roe ringing all the young folk congregate at the cross, and after parading three times around tbe parish church the Lanark lads meet the New La Dark boys In a free fight, in which tbe only legitimate weapons are tbelr caps tied at the end of pieces of string. Doubly Handicapped. 'Squlggs is a very conscientious and kind hearted man, is be not?" "Very, and it gives him a whole lot of trouble. You see. bis conscience never will permit blm to carry out his promises, because, it tells blm, his kind heart has led blm to take a wrong stand." Richmond Times-Dispatch. Its Change. "Modern civilization has made a great change in the commercial aspect of marriage." "How so?" "Fathers used to sell their daugh ters. Now they have to give them away. Baltimore American.
