Wake Up.

If you wake up in the
morning with a bitter or
bad taste in your mouth,
Languor, Dull Headache,
Dependency, ConStipa-
ton, take Simmons Liver
Regulator. 1t corrects
the bilious stoma ch,
sweetens the breath and
cleanses thefurred.tongue.
Children az we'll as adults
sometimes eat something
that does not digest well,
producing Sour Stomach,
Heartburn, Restlessness,
or Sleeplessness-a good
dose of Regulator will
give relief. SO perfectly
harmless is this remedy
that it can be taken by
the youngest infant or
the most delicate person
without injury, no matter
what the condition of the
system may be. 1t can
do no harm if it does no
good, but its reputation
for 40 years proves it
never fails in doinG good.

GRAND OLD TREES.

The oaks and elms that deep-rooted stand
in Charlette's soil are the never-endlng adj
miration of every visitor. Noble oaks whose
diameter is four feet are numerous, and nYe
feet is not an uncommon dimension. Beautl-
ful Tryon street can be trayersed almost us
whole length continuously under the shade OF
these grand trees The handsome dwellings
stand back from the street and the emerald
lawns are shaded with forest monarchs under
whose limbs the play of sunshine and shadow
makes an everchanging picture OF loyehness.
ADVANCED ELECTRICAL IDEAS.
In 1899 Mr.. Edison, the great inventor, spent
several months in Charlotte experimenting
with processes for extracting gold. He occu-
pied a suite of rooms in tn hotel and fixed up
handsome offices on TTyon street. where eyl-
dences of numerous electrical cOntrivances

now the electrician system invented by HIM
is being adopted on her streets. The con
