pent Sunday very pleasantly with
hie grand mother, Mri. Jndith
Hogue, who has been quite sick.
The first day of January our ad
vertuing rates will be advanced
lightly and all advertising matter
inserted after that data will
charged for at the advanced rate.
The reason for this slight advance
is obvious. Th 8ta now has a
tremendous circulation the lar
gest of any weekly paper in North
.arouna west of Charlotte; There
has been practicallr no -shansra in
eur advertising ratss since we be
gan the paper nine years ago,
when the paper had only a few
hundred subscribers. Of course
the cost ot printing the paper has
increased many fold. The blank
paper alone for this week's issue
of Thb Stab cost about 118 m
M. I . . ' "
" euowmg tne extent of our
ciroulatien.
The larger the circulation the
better the reward of the adver
tiser, and it is nothing but just
for the advertiser to help bear
some of the increased cost of
printing such an immense number
or papers The advertisere have
been particularly -kind to us and
we shall certainly make the rate
as low as is at all consistent with
good business principles. We
guarantee in the future, as in the
past, to give the best servioe pos
sible, and that at a much lower
rate in proportion than can be ob
tained from any other reputable
weekly pape. in North Carolina.
We solioit a oontmuanoe of the
patronage of all our present ad
vertisers, and invite all others to
give Thb Star a trial as an adver
tising medium, and we shall be
satisfied with the result. We have
purchased a new lot of advertising
type and propose to make Thb
8tas better next year in every
way. We invite you to help us
make it a really great ' paper for

A Fire at a.attinaare.
There came c oar beiDg a disas

nesday. The 8. A. L. depot, which
is in close proximity to the busi
ness houses, caught on fire about 2
o'clock in the afternoon, but by
hard, quick work the fire was ex
tinguished before it spread. The
only damage ot any consequence
was the burning over of f jur bales
of cotton. The fire is supposed to
have caught from a spark from the
engine.
Dear Editor: Am glad to say
that the people of this section are
taking a great interest in educa

It is natural for education and
Democracy to grow p tegether.
We, the Dsmoerats of No. 10.

The Republicans of No. 10, espec
ially the ''workers" have surely lift
the country or else are staying
close about home. But it's no
body else's business if the Repub
lican candidates are staying at
home, nursing their tired feelings
and melancholy looks.

WASHiNcsTtm, Dec. 10. Senator
Simmons gave an interview to
Washington, Baltimore and other
papers saying that Senator Prit
chard's statement has struck the
people of North Carolina with
amazement.
He says: "If Pritobard's state
ment that the negroes were not
executed from the Republican
at ate convention on aoceunt of
their color be true, then the cam
paign which his party made la
North Carolina will be a miserable
pretense, for the whole campaign
was based on the theory that the

Simmons concluded with the
declaration that Pntehard's best

has found it necessary to make his
anoloflratio and in many ways, un
fortunate, statement."

what the cause is for not sending

who can teach all the scholars
from the First Reader to the most

them as well. But I greatly fear
some are teaching who ought to

have happened in the past. The
committees should visit the
schools and keep posted as to how
teachers and scholars are getting
on. See if the teaeher is teach

or in other words, see if they are
aoiag as they please, and the
teacher doing nothing but call
books and draw his pay. Talk
about education advancing so
rapidly, I for one think it has a
long way to go jet before it reaches
the top round. Let the commit

but the best of teachers and if
they get a teaeher wne cannot
teaeh or control his or her scho

Wv wjrjujuit delighted to read
in the News and Obisrver of last
Sunday, a strong, courteous -and
timely editorial . on .temper aoce
legislation . we endorse it every
word and we nop it will be - deen
ly pondered by our representatives
eiectr several practical sugges
tions arjs made, one or which is I
that the manufacturer as well as
the lals of liquor . be regulated,
The little whiskey stills whish
abound are poisoning the neigh
borhoods where they do their dir
ty work, and are really more hurt
ful than open bar-rooms would be.
Another excellent suggestion is
that in prohibition oommuni ties
an anti iug law, better known as
the Duplin law, be enacted. This
stops the express company from
pouring foreign whiskey into a ter I
ritory where tne good people are
in the majority. There are other
wise suggestions madewnion our
law makers will do well to care- j
fully consider. There are fanatics
on our side and if they get in con
trol they will ruin everything, we
want to do what we can do, rather
than what we wish might be done.
If the Legislature will be braye
and true it will stive us a law that
in a few years w;ll destroy the leg
alized liquor traffio root and
branch. And may God guide them

The matter of feed is of
tremendous importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his cows to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children ?
Are they fed according to
a a
science, a Done tooa it oones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia ?
Scott's Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. It is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.

The. daily papers not long ago
reported a trial case where a man
sued a medicine concern which had
offered a hundred dollars for a
case their remedy could not cure.
It seems that the man had not'
been cured, though he had taken
the remedy. The defence was
that he had not taken the medicine
long enough. He did not get his
hundred dollars.
We allude to this because-Vinol
does not give a slippery guarantee.
We sell it on its merits and
leave it to the user. If the user
comes, hack with his empty bottle
and says : I took that bottle of
Vinol, and , I can't see that it did
me any good, we don t argue
the matter. We say, or our clerk
says, Sorry that you happen to
be among the few here's your
dollar!"
The few I They are very few -
less than one out of a hundred,
according to the experience.
Vinol is a scientific non-secret
compound of cod liver oil (greatest
medicinal . food known), organic
iron (iron that can be taken up into
the blood and used), and a mild
table wine. It is pleasant to take.
Our Vinlax, for constipation, is
Vinol'a companion remedy, sold on
the same guarantee. . '
