Granite Falls, Oct. 11, 1905. Letter te Dr. W. L Enell. Lenoir, N. C. Dear Sir: Two years ago the es- state of the late Congressman Scott, of Erie, Pa., painted 24 Rolling-Mill houses one coat Devoe at a saving of 11 per cent for paint (lead-and-oil was after the job). That's how the tale reads. We infer what really happened. The buyer, as usual, went by the cost Of .painty got, bids. Lead-and oil bid low and guessed the quantity low; the saving was only 11 per cent. . Nobody seema to have thought of this: the painting costa two or three times as much as the paint? How much did we save on the painting? Don't know. The tale ends with this: We often refer inquirers to those houses, for wear of Devoe. That's a good enough story; but nobody knows what it is. Our only difficulty is want of pai nt Intelligence. Yours truly F W Devoe & Co Mrs. Captain Beall, of Salisbury, has been visiting Mra. Mary Keall, at Fairfield thla week. Maj.

But there was born into that home a- crippled child, and that deformed baby was the means of drawing out the sympathy and love aud tenderness of the whole family. The man uursed and petted the child of an evening; the boys made playthings for her, and showed their affection in all sorts of pleasant ways; the mother kept the window clean, that her child, pillowed on the table, might look out on the court.

The Sea board's through southbound pawten ger train No. 31, due here at 10.15 a.m., on its way from the North to Florida, had a thrilling escape this morning from destruction through a bu ruin bridge, spanning what Is known as Jumping Gully, 60 feet high and 200 feet long, between Lug off and Blaney Station, near Cam den. The only warning the engineer and crew had was the smoke and flame they sighted 200 yards away as the train was rounding a curve running 45 miles an hour. The en gine was reversed and the emergency breaks applied. The nervy engineer got his maehine under control within a car lenarth of the north side of the bitdire. where the fire was concen trated aud where 20 feet had been burned out. There was joy In that crowd of passengers, numbering about 50, and they were eloquent in their praise ofthe splendid work of EngineerD.K.Wright and Conductor Walter Gibson and others.

Editor NKW8: This is Sunday and aiming hard and being lonesome my thoughts naturally go back to my old home and I am wondering how everybody Is getting along and how the town is progressing. I am engineer for the Union County Brick and Tile Co., a new concern just established by W. F. Wouch, a yankee, and by the latest method of manufacturing brick, it is a very cheap process, being made by what is called the dry process. Brick are taken direct from the press to kiln, thus doing away with the ex pense of handling twice for the pur pose of drying, then again by this process they never have to stop, as in good weather they store clay ahead in dry sheds and in wet or freezing weather they work from this clay, this enables them to work in all kinds of weather. Again every brick is absolutely perfect, it is impossible to make an imperfect brick aa the clay is reduced to dust and screened and fed automatically into the ma chine and each brick is subjected to a presnre of from 60 to 120 tons to the square inch, according to what the clay will stand, and as it must cc tain not more than 15 per cent, nor less than 8 per eent. moisture it is so thoroughly bonded that yoo cannot erushthe green brick by ordinary methods and when burned they are a beautiful red, hard finely finished brick, which sell at from $8.50 per M. to $20.00 M. F. O. B. car yard and are sold faster than the Co. can make them. These brick cost the Co. less than $4,00 per M. no you can nee that they are getting rich font. If some of our enterprining business men would erect a plant of this descrip tion and get a thoroughly competent man to 0)erate same it would bo a great help to the country beside a source of handsome revenue to the stock holders. This plant cost about $15000 00 complete and seir sup orting, as the business is a cash one and profits so enormous that it is not neccessary to make an assessment on stock holders. Well 1 guess I have written sntll- cient for this time. Kindly let me now how everything is progressing and oblige. Respectfully, J. W. Hick. New Albany, Miss., 10 -S-'Ofl.
