IS IT RIGHT
an Editor lo Recommend Pat
ent Medicines?
From Sylvan Valley News. Brevard, N. C.
It nray be a question whether theed
itor of a newspaper, has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which flood the
market, yet as a preventive of suffer
ing we feel it a duty to say a good
word for Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have
known and used this medicine in our
family for twenty years and have al
ways found it reliable. In many cases
a dose of this remedy would save hours
of suffering while a physician is
awaited. We do not believe in deep
ening iinplicity on any medicine for a
cure, but we do believe that if a bottle
of Chamberlain’s Diarrhoea Remedy
were kept on hand and administered
at the inception of an attack much suf
fering might be avoided and in very
many cases the presence of a physi
cian not be required. At least this has
been our experience during the past
twenty years. For sale by E. Bradford.

Mr. J. H. W. Steele, secretary of the
Texas Standard Bale Compress‘Associ
ation, in a letter written to the West
Times, June 30, says: “Let me say a
plain word to the plain people: For the
same reason that yon pay more for a
good coat than you would for a ragged
and sleezy one, so will the English and
German spinner pay you more for a
neat, dense, well covered bale than he
will for what is left of an unsightly hag,
which has lost half its valne by wet,
waste, pilfery and dirt.”
For exactly this reason spinners pay
more for ronndlap than for square bales
of any size whatever. It is precisely
because ronndlap bales are “neat,
dense, well covered,” protected against
fire, moisture, waste, theft and damage,
that they are worth more to spinners
than an “unsightly” square “bag which
has lost half its value by wet, waste,
pilfery and dirt.” It is precisely for
this reason, also, and because of the
savings made in the wrapping, hand
ling and shipment of ronndlap bales
that buyers are able to and do pay for
them a premium above the valne of
square bales sufficient to pay the baling
charge and leave the owner a substan
tial profit besides.
The width of a broad grin is eqnal to
the length of a smile.
Better have a good medicine and not
need it than to need it and not have it.
See? Then just before you get hurt,
buy a bottle of Dr. Tichenor’s Anti
septic. It is a record'breaker for
wounds, burns, bruises, scalds, etc.,
for man and beast. Fifty cents a bot-
lle at all druggists.

The Mountain Denier Objected to n
Fall For Religion** Reason*.
“That reminds me indirectly,” said
the other drummer, “of a yarn I heard
lately over iu South Carolina told at
the expense of ( a peculiarly guileless
old chap who. keeps a little crossroads
store up in the mountains. Everybody
wears boots in that part of the country,
and, as the story goes, the old fellow
had been buying -his stock for many
years of a manufacturer in a big city
not 1,000 miles away. He paid $6 a
pair for his boots wben he first went
into business, and the maker had con
tinued charging him the same figure
year after year regardless of the fact
that the market pride had been steadily
going down. The old storekeeper, se
cluded from the world in his mountain
home, never dreamed that lie was be
ing fleeced and took pride in paying his
bills with clocklike punctuality.
‘At last, when that grade of boots
was quoted at $2.50, the manufactur
er’s conscience smote him, and be de
cided to make amends. So he wrote
the country merchant, saying that.
there had been a considerable decrease
in the price of leather, and he was glad
to state that he would be able to let
him have the last lot of boots he order
ed at $4 a pair. This, he added r was a
special low rate, made on account of
personal esteem and the fact that he
had been a regular customer for such a
long period. A few days afterward the
conscientious manufacturer was amaz
ed to receive a letter runuiug some
thing like this:

Home Lite In Porto Rico.
To one unaccustomed to tropical con
ditions the furnishing of the Porto
Rican home would at first sight seem
meager, but it is quite ample. A short
residence will demonstrate that nearly
500 years of experience with the un
pleasant features of life in the West
Indies have been crowned by -a sur
vival of the fittest in house furnishing
as in other matters.
Austrian bent wood furniture and also
wickerwork and willow ware consti
tute the main equipment of the par
lors and living rooms. Upholstered fur
niture is unknown and undesired, little
or no attempt being made at decoration
except in the matter of embroidery and
fine handmade lace work. Hundreds
of yards of crochet work are used iu
the embellishment of a single canopied
bed. This work is the chief delight of
the Porto Rican housewife.
The walls are for the most part bare,
but here and there a painting of merit
may be seen. The sofa pillow is tho
one great featnre of the home. It Is ev
erywhere, in every conceivable size,
shape and material. Ferns of gigantic
size and exquisite formation, as well
as broad spreading palm leaves, are
used to festoon the walls and arched
doorways. Cut fresh from day to day,
they render the dark, cool rooms invit
ing and attractive. Potted tropical
plants in great variety abound within
and without the house.—Harper’s Ba
zar.
Admiralty Weak on Geosrapby.
During the Boer war of 1SS0 the ad
miralty was hopelessly ignorant of the
geography of South Africa.
The admiral in charge of the fleet at
Cape Town received strict orders that
he was not on any account to bombard
the town of Potchefstroom. Now, -as
Potcbefstroom is a good many hun
dred miles from the seacoast and lies
on the Mooi river, which Is barely 200
yards across and dry for three parts
of the year, this order was superflu
ous.
During tile same period the fleet was
at Port Elizabeth, and the admiral
headed dispatches to the admiralty
from that seaport. By the next mail
he again sent dispatches, but happened
to bead them Algoa bay.
The admiralty cabled out asking him
what business he had to change the
location of the fleet without instruc
tions. sublimely ignorant of the fact
that Port Elizabeth and Algoa bay are
one and the same place.
By the way. the names Algoa bay
and Delngon bay are derived from the
outward and homeward voyages of the
old East. Indiamen who. on their voy
ages to Goa. In India, were wont to
call at Port Elizabeth on the outward
voynge and at Lourenco Marques on
the homeward voyage. Hence the
names Algoa (to Goa) and Delagoa
(from Goa).—Stray Stories.

European ladies constantly run away
witli the idea that Constantinople Is a
civilized town and act accordingly.
Then they are’ astonished when some
thing disagreeable happens, and con
tinually one hears of ladies being bus
tled. pinched or kissed by Turkish sol
diers. It must be remembered that the
soldiers are recruited from the wildest
tribes In Asia Minor, where woman Is"
considered an inferior creature, who
must give way to man, besides being
trained to avoid him on all possible oc
casions.
One can easily imagine that such a
soldier Is astonished to see a European
lady unveiled, boldly expecting him to
give way to her or at any rate not
avoiding him. and he naturally takes It
to be an advance on her part. Ladies
have often told me they have been
pushed by soldiers into' the gutter, and.
I have nearly always found that it is
simply as I have explained, that nei
ther makes way for the other, with the
result that the lady, being the weaker,
comes to grief.—London Telegraph.
A Fisherman*, Trick.
“One day I was talking fish with a
number of friends,” said an old fisher
man, “and I made a bet that I could
catch more perch than any other man
In the party In a given time. The
crowd picked out the most experienced
fisherman in the lot, and we set a day
to try our lock. The day before the
match I got a large glass jar, filled it
with water and put some minnows In
It.- Over the mouth of the jar I -put a
piece of parchment in which I had
made some small holes. Then I went
to a point just east of the waterworks,
picked out a likely spot and sank the
jar In the river, first attaching a cork
float to It by which 1 could locate It
next day.
“We went out for the fishing match
the following afternoon, and 1 soon
found my float and anchored there.
The other man located a short distance
away, and we began. The perch were
just beginning to run, and in a little
while I had pulled in 180 perch, tvhlle
my opponent got only 24. Then he
gave np, and 1 won my bet.
“I showed the boys the trick before
we left the fishing ground. Yon can
always In that way make a good catch
of fish that will swallow minnows. The
sight of the bait in the jar always at
tracts a crowd of fish and seem3 to put
them in good biting humor.”—Detroit

The cunning of children Is well rec
ognized *o be of a very superior kind,
and it is seldom if given a chance that
they cannot Inveigle their elders into
seeing things their way. The follow
ing is an instance of where a little girl
slipped up on this by not taking into
consideration that her mother had had
enough experience with children to
have an Insight into their nature.
The girl’s birthday was a couple of
weeks off, and her parents had told her
that they were going to give her a
handsome present upon- that occasion.
She had been counting “the minutes”
for several days, but thinking she
could not possibly await her birthday
without, knowing what her present
would be. she stole softly up to her
mother and begged her to show her the
present
“Why, it wouldn’t be right to show it
to. you now,”' her mother answered,
“because we want to surprise you on
your birthday.”
“Ob. that’s all right!” exclaimed the
little one. “I’ll forget what It Is before
then.”—Memphis Scimitar.

THE PALACE WAITED-
A Builder’s Suggestion Tliat Chang
ed the Plans ot a Pope,
At a time when there was great suf
fering among the people from lack of
food and when famine in its worst
form was threatened Pope Alexander
VI had made arrangements for the
erection of a uiaguiiiceut palace. The
best architects had been employed, and
the plans had beeu submitted and ac
cepted, and an accomplished builder
had beeu sent for to come from Venice,
a man whose work had wou for him re-
no wu and who was known to be a just
and upright niau.
The builder had arrived, and at an
appointed time he waited upon his ho
liness to receive the plans and make his
estimates. "There is one thing yet to
be done.” said the pope. “There has
been no 1 %.ht inscription or legend
thought of to be placed over the main
entrance of the palace. It should be
put above the great gate. You have
had experience. Do j’ou think of an
inscription that would be appropriate?”
If your holiness would pardon me
for the liberty, 1 might suggest one
most appropriate at this time.”
You are pardoned in advance,” said
the pope, smiling. “Now, what shall it
be?”
“Sovereign pontiff, let it be thus:
Command that these stones be made
bread!* ”
The pope was visibly and deeply af
fected. He paid the builder munificent
ly for his expenses of coming and go
ing, and instead of building his palace
he fed the hungry ones of his childreu.
