 II especially have a pleasant remembrance of the ships doctor-a very experienced mari- time medico indeed, who tended me most kind ly during a horrible spell of bronchitis and spasmodic asthma, provoked by the sea fog which had swooped down on us just after we left San Francisco.

Unfortunately there was considerable truth in his observa- tion. Thousands of husbands are constantly worried almost to despair by the ill health that affiicts their wives, and often robs life of comfort and happiness. There is but one safe and sure way to change all this for the better. The ladies should use Dr. Pierce's Favolite Prescription.

Love is d Serious Matter,

Speaking of women," said the Col onel, after long pause, "I was travel ing in Missouri once in my buggy when I met tall, slab-sided girl of twenty in the road I had taken a drink or two and felt jolly and so I hailed her with:
 'Howdy, Sal? Fine day.
 " How'd, stranger?' she promptly re- piled.
 Say I went on, I'm looking for a wife,
 What sort?'

 "'Want me?'
 If you'll have me-
 Reckon will. Let's drive back and see dad and man.
 II was joking, you know, and so I told her that l was in great hurry and would return. Three natives who came along just then stopped to find out what was the matter, and they set in with the girl to take me back. The only way I could get out of it was to bolt for the woods, leaving the horse and buggy be- hind, and five years later the girl was driving them. That little joke of mine cost me just $350, to say nothing of being run through g. patch of woods five miles wide "-Detrou Free Press.

As aSENrINEL reporter was going along
the street few days ago, thinking of mat
tiers pertaining to things Of quite different
nature from the heading of this article, we
were accosted by citizen who askei:
"Why don't some of you newspaper fell
lows urge uponthe consolidation of VIM
ston-Salem?"
"Well," answered the reporter, "that
question was decided several years ago, and
I don't know whether the citizens of the two
towns want us to say anything about 1t now
or not. I do not hear any mention made
regarding consolidation here of late''
"That is the reason" replied Citizen,
"why you don't hear anything said about it
IF the newspapers would urge upon con.
solidation and talk for it as they do of .
great many other things believe the PEG
pie would favor it. When the question was
voted upon few years ago, then voted
against y consolidation, but since then
have seen where l did wrong. and believe
| there are great many others who now lo0l
upon the question in the same light as do

Death of an Aged Citizen.

Our community was shocked Monday

Vest was we'll known throughout the county,

of his clerkship on the road his eyesight
failed him, whereupon one of his daughters
rendered acceptable service by making the
trip with him. He was elected for three
terms to the Office of Mayor of Salem, and
served several years as U. s. Commissioner
He was also Winston's first Postmaster and
claimed to have built the first house, which
stood upon the site of Farmers warehouse

Independent Candidate for Congress-.

thinks is good authority that State Senator
Hannibal N. Simpson will be the independ-

trict, for seat in the 51st Congress and
that he will support the nominees and plat
form of the Republican party. Hannibal will
relieve the campaign from monotony, if he
does nothing more.
Yes, and this means final farewell to
Brer Brow er and all his followers. The

State will now no doubt hoist Simpsons
name to their mast heads, and tell their
readers to let little Johnny go glimmering.
