The Reidsville Review TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS. 'Hi2 REVIEW COMPANY, (Incorporated) ONE DOLLAR PER YEAR. 3E1DSVILLE, FEB. 16, 19C9. The Taft administrationVems to be inviting Knox ore it has even begun administrating, paragraphs the Danville Register. Mail carriers are holding their heads h gh these days. In the, future rural carriers will get a salary of $ 1,000 a year, and city carriers will receive f 1,200. The Wilmington Star thinks it strange to read these days of a delegation of citizens going to Raleigh to urge before the Legislature "better regulation of the sale of liquor in their county." The Congress, as usual near the end or the session, finds itself very much behind with its work and will have to hold night sessions in order to dispose of the big appropriation bills. The last issue of the Madison Herald declartsth.it Ex-Senator Reid's defeat was attributable directly to the disaf fection among the Democrats of the eistern part of the county on account of the court house fight. Exactly. But some time ago the Herald said that the tobacco trust spent $3,000 in lleidsville to cause Mr. Keid's defeat. The New York World vigorously con tends that the Democratic party is not dead nor even near -dead. It points out, among other things, that the party polled ,o'J3,l.SJ votes last fall, an in crease of 1,315,211 over 1094, as against a Ik-publican increase of 14,900. In utner words, the Democratic gains were -i iO times greater than Republican gains. We regret that the Leaksville Gazette Ins decided to suspend publication. The publication of the paper, says the Ga jrette, costs it annually $o00 more than it receives from it, and has made a pre ent of this sum to the business and oilier interests of the community. The iazette, however, will later on be resiis ticated, and we look for its reappear ance with a degree of pleasure. A Valentine F?rty. The home of Mr. and Mrs. S. X. White was the centre of mirth last Fri day evening when Mrs. Felix Miles cele brated her birthday anniversary by giv ing a most enjoyabie Valentine social to the choir and official members of the First Baptist Church. The reception room was charmingly decorated in red and green, and its bright appearance must have had an exhilerating effect upon the guests, tfor no jollier crowd ever assembled to hon or old St. Valentine. There were several entertaining games, including a word contest, in which Mrs. Robert Burton and Mr. Z. 1L eal were equally successful, until theytdrew straws to break the tie, when Mrs. Burton lost and the prize, a beautiful cameo scarf, went to Mr. Neal. Mr. J. E. Heinzer ling for being the"boobv" was rewarded with a carrot pin cushion. Rev. Wm. Hedley presented the prizes. If a prize had been offered for wit and general good humor, Miss Jones, of Kerners ville, would surely have taken it. Mrs. White received in the dining room and dispersed delicious refresh ments, consisting of apricot cream, cakei wafers and fruits. The decorations were all in red, most attractively arranged. At a signal each guest pulled a ribbon and received a favor consisting of two brilliant hearts. A large birthday cake adorned the centre of the table and cut ting it occasioned great merriment and much good-natured rivalry among the guests. The lucky people were Miss Minnie Huffines the ring, Mrs. R. G. Glanstone the silver coin; and Mr. R.G. Gladstone the silver thimble. The birthday feature was not announc ed, but a number of Mrs. Miles', friends discovered it in time to present her w ith little tokens of their regards. At a late hour the company adjourned wishing themselves and Mrs. Miles many happy returns ol the day. Those present were Miss Emma Jones, Kernersville; Reidsville guests, Misses Powell, Huffines, Mesdames Hedley, Overman, Tipkin, Burton, Foy, Glad stone, Williams, Hubbard andHeinzer- ling, Messrs. Wm. Hedley, C. II. Over man, J. B. Fipkin, Z. H. Neal, II. L. Morrison, J. E. Heinzerling, R. L. Hub bard, W. II. Foy, R. G. Gladstone, and R. T. Burton. Ilarrelson Gets Hitf Verdict. In the Guilford Superior Court Greensboro Saturday the jury case of W. L. Ilarrelson vs. The Gazette says that while appreci ating Thk Rkvikw'b sorrow on account of Leaksville not possessing a recorder's court, it knowrthat our interest is sadly wasted. Says the Gazette: "Instead of fooling away $60 a month on a recorder and clerk, we are spending our money on concrete sidewalks, macadamized streets, electric illumination, and other things useful and ornamental. We have no criminal class like recorder's court towns. We are civilized over here, quiet and law-abiding. But not withstanding its crudities and delin quencies, there is yet hope for Reids ville; and that town, with its recorder's court, has our best wishes," The Lockhart sub section A bill and the Manning substitute are both still reposing in the hands of a sub-committee of the Senate judiciary committee, in spite of the fact that there came from the executive office of Governor Kitchin the past week an urgent message that the Legislature do not fail to enact at this session some adequate supplemen t ai y legislation that will impart "teeth" to the 1!07 act for the prevention of trusts and combinations in North Caro lina. It is understood now that this sub-committee will report back to the full committee its recommendations as to the two measures tomorrow after noon. Then the committee as a whole will take action and report back to the Senate. A Birthday Remembrance. Last Thursday, February' 11, 1009,was the birthday of the Rev. D. I Craig, pastor of the Presbyterian Church. The people of this church and congregation seem to have known and remembered this fact, and it was made the occasion for kindness shown to their pastor which will be long and gratefully remembered by him. Early in the afternoon parcels and packages, large and small, of various articles and good things to eat, too numerous to mention, began to pour in to the manse, and by sundown one end of the manse hallway presented the ap pearance of a full corner in a grocery at ore. It was indeed a genuine, gener ous and abundant "pounding" and it came spontaneously and universally from the people. At night about twenty-five persons of the congregation, mostly ladies, assem bled at the manse and extended their cordial and happy greeting of good cheer and best wishes. The pastor in grateful acknowledgement of the kind ness shown him, and of the sweet spirit which prompted it, attempted to make a little speech of grateful thanks and appreciation, but his heart was too full for utterance, and he desires in this public way to repeat and to express his heartfelt thanks for this manifestation of kindness so nobly and so generously shown. May God bless the people, one and all, and abundantly reward them. 1). I.

Don't be tempted by catch-penny bar gains to send your money all over the country; keep it in circulation in your own neighborhood.

Crossing the deck of the Kaler Wll helm II. royal yacht with a large mug of beer In bis hand, one of the (tailors was startled by the sudden appearance of his royal master. He made n most clumsy attempt to salute with his free band, while bis anxiety to prevent the beer spilling amused his majesty. "Look here," said the latter, "you didn't do that right. IiCt mo show you how It ought to be done." Telling the man to fancy that ho was the em peror, who was to be saluted, the kai ser took the mug end retreated n few paces. Then, coming forward ngnin, stopping opposite to the sailor, he held the mag to his lips, drained it, put it down on the deck and gave the salute with military precision. "That's the way to do It," he remarked to the as tonished seaman. "Now go down stairs and tell them to fill the mug up again and give you one for yourself. Say It was I who drank It." The Millers. "If you want to hear some guessing wide of the mark ask some one what he would think might bo the third most common name In New York city," says the New York Sun.

Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a con stitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucou3 surfaces of the system, thereby, destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in do ing its work.
