day. He seems to be the right man IN
the right place. He is very indus
trious, and pushes his work. de Is
seldom ever still, for if his body is at

You could not find man to take his
place.
The many friends of Mrs. Carrie
CLAYTON, formerly of this place, were
panied to learn of her death. Inc

this place last Saturday by Rev. Mr..

prospect of "a long and happy lite.

From the Durham Sum-
Every little while we read of some
one who has stuck rusty nail into
their foot or knee, Or some other por-
ton of their person, and lockjaw has
resulted therefrom. Yet all such
wounds, it is said, can be healed
without such fatal consequences as
often follow them. Smoke such
wounds or any wound or bruise that
is infiamed with burning wool OF
wooden cloth. Twenty minutes in
thu smoke OF wool will take the pain
out of the worst wound, and re
peated once or twice it will allay the
worst cases of inflammation arising
from a wound.

In MemOriam.

The Twin City club desires that
the estimate which it's members have
placed upon the character of Rrban
b. Kerner, late Mayor of the city of
Winston, be entered upon its rolls and
shat men tion of the same be made TO
the public and to his family. HIS
death leaves noble memory In lieu
of a useful life, one too sacred to his
friends and too valuable to ali to be
lost to the world. With him, life was
real, life was earnest, and he accom-
plished in youth the task of long
life. A fine scholar, an able lawyer, a
distinguished and useful public cltl-
zen, a successful business man, gen
tleman, Christian; strong and
true IN these and in all the complex
relations of society. The members OF
our Club are sensible of their great
loss, and they beg to extend their ten
derest sympathies to the. family
whose loss is the largest and whose
grief is the greatest, thankful that

The Hunting Season

The quail hunting season does not
begin until November 1st, and lasts
until March 18th. At any other season
of the year the statutes of North Caro-
lima made it a misdemeanor, punish
ment by fine of ten dollars for each
offence to skill, shoot, trap or net any
cartridges, quail, doves, robbins, lark,
hooking birds or wild turkeys" Many
people think the law only applies to
the quail, but 1.-THE above is the Ian
guage of the statute. AS TO the mock
ing birds, any one killing them at any
time of the year ought to have six
months on the rock pile.

One Girls PROPOSAL.

One day came an offer from man
who had loved me ever since was a lit
tie girl and who is the only lover l ever
had who became my friend afterward
1t seems to me 1 must always have
known that he loved me, and he is still
so unselfish and patient friend that l
always think of him as unchanging. All
that he said was:
"Phyllis, we have gone this far in life
apart. Can't we go the rest of the way
together" And when I said mo" and
began to excuse myself, he stopped me:
Dear girl, don't say that to me. l
have loved you much too long and too
well not to know you. understand all
you would say. Trust me as trust you,
and forget everything l ever said, except
that my heart aches with love for you.
Remember that always. Shall we walk
on?'
Twas so dismayed by his abrupt dis
missal of the subject that 1 nearly fell
down instead. How conventionality
helps one through a crisisl Ladies'

A Game Hunters Last Effort,

M. de Cherville had a dog which had
become wholly deaf and almost blind
with old age, as well as most helplessly
lame with rheumatism. The dog slept
almost all the time, but he retained a
keen passion for the chase, and it was
impossible for his master to get away
from the house with gun on his Shout
der without the old dog unless the ami
NAL was locked up.
On one occasion when M. de Cherville
thought he had eluded the old dog he
found when in the field that the faithful
creature was limping after him, whining
with the pain of moving his old limbs,
but keenly on the alert, as well as his
eyesight would permit, for game.
Presently the master saw the dog
pointing" at partridge. De Cherville
could not resist the temptation to kill
one more bird for the veteran. He fired,
the partridge dropped, and the dog, with
the one-quarter of an eye which remained
to him, hunted it out and brought it t.,
his master.
Bringing the bird at a limping, lum-
bering gallop, the dog did what he had
never done before in the field; he got upon
his hind legs, planted his forepaws on De
Cherville's shoulders and dropped the
bird on his breast. Then the dog fell to
the ground, rolled over two or three
times and was dead. His last supreme
effort in his masters behalf had killed
him.-Youth's Companion.

Living on a Beggarly SO, 1000.

No one who has not actually mixed
with New York dandies knows how
much they spend. A social philosopher
has lately reckoned that a young man
about town, who takes his part in the
good things which are going, cannot
dress under $4,000 a year. His tailor:
bill will eat half of this, his shirts and
"gentlemen's furnishings" quarter, his
boots not less than 1925. twill cost oven
$500 to OUTFIT him for yachting, tennis
and polo. Then add to this his bill fol
horses, his club bill, his florists bill, his
restaurant bill, his lodging bill and the
nameless sundries which constitute one
half of the outlay of a young man abou,
town, and it will be seen that man may
have $4,000 a year and yet be familiar
with the face of duns.
One of the Oldest and wisest cluDmet
of the day recently, after an hour Sstuay
of the necessalies Of lis for man Il
fashion, declared that he would advise
no one to attempt the life with less than

Gem Peddlers of Ceylon.

was sitting one afternoon on the
beautiful wide veranda of the Gale Face
hotel, Colombo, in Ceylon.
A light hand touched my shoulder, and
barefooted Cingalese stood before me-
would you like to buy some stones!"
he asked in his pleasant voice.
These peddlers of gems are very nu-
merous in Ceylon and threaten to become
q nuisance to the traveller. They are not
allowed to enter the hotels, and I once
saw one of them actually beaten out of
the Oriental in Columbo. Hence twas
that before addressing me my Cingalese
friend glanced furtively up and down
the long veranda to see that he was UNI
observed by the minions of the hotel.
He took from beneath his blouse n
bundle of white cloth, which he opened,
displaying about pint of rubies, car
buncles, moonstones and cats eyes. As
l had nothing to do, looked through
them, after explaining to the sable mer-
chant that had no intention of buying,
The collection must have been worth

Character In Gait.

Gait is an important part of physica
expression. By his gait man tells u'
whether he is fresh or tired, strong OF
feeble, in good health or in bad. To some
extent also gait denotes occupation. The
upright and somewhat rigid walk Of the
soldier differs largely from the rather
rolling gait of the sailor, and different
from both of these is the slow, jolting
gait of the country laborer, which, how
ever, is partly accounted for by his clum'
sy and heavy boots. In the peculiarities
of gait, again, an attentive eye discovers
many moral qualities. Slow steps, wheth'
er long or short, suggesta gentle orrefect
i've state of mind as the case may be.
while on the contrary quick steps seem
to speak of agitation and energy.
Reflection is revealed in frequent
pauses, and walking to and fro, back.
ward and forward, the direction of th'
steps wavering and following every
changing impulse of the mind, inevitably
betrays uncertainty, hesitation and in.
decision. 1t might be asking too curiou
knowledge to distinguish by their re-
spective gaits the miser, the spendthrift
and the philanthropist, but the proud
man is almost always known by his step,
the vain man to some extent and the OBJ
stinate man not little.-Leisure Hour.

ARemarkable Banquet Party.

One of the most notorious Hungarian
duelists fought his thirty-fifth duel in
1886 and celebrated the event by ban
quet, to which only those who could
prove that they had participated in at
least six duels were invited. There was
room full of such warriors, some with
faces scanned with scars, others minus
an ear, an eye or with two or three fin
gers missing. The most marked of all
was Frenchman, who had lost his nose
in an encounter with Count Andrassy,
the statesman. There was only one re-
taxation of the rule, and that was made
in favor of lady who had killed her
man.-London Tit-Bits.
