C, DECEMBER , 1907. XO. 14. Forest Presemtion. Industrial Newt. The 'Washington Post asserts that there is one proposition to which all of us, saint and sinner, the elect and the reprohate, tfre agreed, and that is the conserva tiou of our forests. ''There was a day," continues the Post, ''when Mesopotamia was the garden of the East. It is now a desert, and owls and bats roost in Babylon. The reason for it is found in the vandal waste and criminal destruction of the forests. "The Guadalquivir, before the Berber went to spain, watered the finest valley in Europe, but the son of the Visigoths cut down and destroyed the trees and made bar ren wastes of what were once fer tile fields." In this connection the Post calls the attention of Congress to the following remarks of the New York Times: "Chief Forester Pinchot declares that of the estimated 400.000,000, 000 feet of standing hardwoods 25,000,000,000 are cut yearly, at which rate the supply will le ex hausted in siiteen years. The re searches of the forest service show conclusively that, rightly managed the mountain ranges of the east are capable of insuring to the na tion its annual hardwood supply without impairing the forests. "Facts and figures proving the establishment of the reserve to be a good business venture should produce definite results. They will be more effective than mere petitions by boards of trade and chambers oi commerce, which have availed little more, in the last fifteen years' campaigning for the eastern reserve bill, than to get it through a single branch of the federal Legislature." There are evidences that out people have awakened to the dang er of forest destruction, as th( Post says, but it is error in assert ing that it is a subject upon which all of us, saint and sinner, arc a? reed. It is with no decree of - o pleasure that we set the Post straight in this matter, but it is a fact, very strange, but a fact, nev ertheless, that there is very con siderable opposition to the propos al to conserve our forests, and this opposition has developed among the people of our own Appalachian Mountains, where the people should be the most concerned in the late of this lull. Here in this State many of oar people have turned a deaf ear to the cry: "Woodman, spare that tree!" Whenever you feel that your stom ach has gone wrong, or when you feel that it is not in good order as is evi dence by menu headaches nervous ness, bad breath, and belching, take something at times, and especially after your meals until relief isafford ed. There is nothing better offered the public to day for stomaohe troub les, dyspepsia, indigestion, etc., than KODOL. This is a scientific prepra tion of natural digestants combined with vegetable acids and it contains the some juices in every healthy stomach. KODOL is guaranteed to give relief.

Dr. Kents Drug Store and Granite Falls Drng Co. Backwoods man Heard Bishops. State'ville Landmark. A lot of us went to Salisbury Son day to hear the bishor preach (as Brother Billy Anderson said, we were hungry lor the word . Bish op Morrison preached in the fore noon. It was a very able sermon to every body but especially to the preachers, lie told them to get rigjit themselves and then they would be in a letter position to point others to the Lamb that taketh away the sius of the world. It was abvertised that Dr. (J. T. Rowe would preach or lecture in the Y. M. C. A. hall in Spencer at 4 o'clock p. m., so a large crowd went there to hear him but he did n't show up. Kev. Harold Turner was pressed into service and he made a very excellent talk on the life, charcter and boldness of Christ. We went back to the Methodist church in Salisbury wrere Bishop Atkins was to preach bunday night, lhe house was packed at ati early hour and many were turned away lor want of room. They sang "Fountain," "Alas and Did," with the chorus, "At the Cross,'' and everybody seemed to 1n f.mlinnr nrnrwl Thou a ornwil of stepped on the platform behind the preacher and Ix'gan to squall and holler and to pump on something that looked like a large porcupine with great monster quills; and when they would pump in some of the quills it would sound like mad lion in his cage; when they would nuniD in other i nills it would sound just like a parcel ot w omen and children a hollering and a screaming as loud as they could, and the next breath they seem to be dying away like a night mare had them. It seemed just like you was in the side show of circus, l his was while they were trying to take a collection but evervbody seemed to be mad and disgusted and 1 don't think they srot much money, or at least that w as the way it was around w here was. If they had taken their col lection while they were singing "Fountain" and the like they would havetrottcn their hats full I believe they called that perfor niance a solo but hell o would lit better. These are mv sentiments but I don't mean anv harm by ex pressing them. A Fortunate Texan. Mr. Iv W.
