CONVENTION Slat Auoclatlen Meats, Eltds'-'Otlagatst to ' Now Orluns ' And Holds Long -v . .v v . - Dlscussloa. 1 r. Raleigh, Jan.' 4. The North Carolina Cotton Growers Convention had a. five hours session last night, and it wa really considerable time before it got down to .business.' It ' has chosen a good delegation to the Southern Cotton Convention at New Orleans, this being composed of John S. Cunningham, , W. C. Heath, James H. Pou, C C Spar row, J. Y. Hamrick; M. S. T Grifiith, J. J. Mott, R. W. Livermore, iind.H, C Dockery, all of the these except Col. Cunningham being large , planters, Mr. Dockery leading in the vote for com mitteemen. The election -of Mr. C, C. Moore of Mecklenburg was . by no means unexpected, " bis position in the organization having been very promi nent and valuable during all "the past year. Col.;,, Cunningham had served during his year's tenure ot office with his usual zeal and had travelled cn practically all the cotton-growing coun ties' The matter which prolonged the session of the association, was the ques tion of the management but the flnil agreement that thieu should be really in the hands of an executive committee of five members settled the question very well ; indeed. The - first arrange p?nt' made was for, $2,500 sal ary lor the president and ?wo lor the secretary-treasurer, then the latter salary as increased to a salary of $1,000 and then all this was done away with and the matter of salaries as well as the general n. aaagement left to the exec utive committee which iB given plenary power and which is regarded as ' being the best solution of any and all d;fficul- ties which have arisen or may arise. It is the opinion of members that the State can be more thoroughly organized through such a committee which will carefully choose the workers in the various counties, than in any other way.

I tried nearly everything without any benefit and bad a doctor,, but he didn't seem to do any good. He said I would have to have my leg taken off, and that I would never walk again.- I suffered awful, and at night I could not sleep at all. I thought there was no rest for me, but as soon as I began to use Cuticura Soap and Ointment it commenced healing nicely. I bathed the ankle with warm water and Cuticura Soap and then applied Cuticura Ointment to the affected part; and laid a cloth ovef the sore to hold it in place. After two weeks I could walk around jn my room real good, and m six weeks' time my ankle was entirely cured and I was walking around out of doors. I am enjoying perfect health and have gone to work and feel as well as I ever did in my life, so I know -that the Cuticura Remedies are the best in the world. ,( Cuticura was recommended to me' by a lady who had used it when her baby's head was so full of sores he could not lie down.
