When my little girl was one month old, she
had a scab form on her face. 1t kept spread
ing until she was completely covered from
head to foot. Then she had boils. She had
forty on her head at one time, and more on
her body. When six months old she did not
weigh seven pounds, pound and half less
than at birth. Then her skin started to dry
up and got so bad she could not shut her eyes
to sleep, but laid with them half open. About
this time, at the earnest request of friends, 1
started using the CUTICURA REMEDIES, and
in one month size 7Oas completely eured.
The doctor and drug bills were over one Inn
tired dollars, the Cuticura bill was not more
than f0e dollars. My child is now two years
old, strong, healthy and large as any child of
her age (see photo.) and it is all owing to
CUTICURA. Yours with Mothers Blessing,

Equality in Giving.

Paul believed In equality in the mat
ter of giving, as well as of service.
He would not have some burdened and
Others eased, but enjoined upon one
and all the giving in proportion to the
individual ability. Burdens should
be distributed. Needs should be met
by united effort upon a proportion
ate giving. Where this principle OBJ.
tains, it is comparatively easy to sus-
tain the Lords work; but in too many
of our congregations it finds little re-
cognition. The few are left to bear
the heavy part of the financial obliga-
tions. Many give pittances who
should contribute largely to the sup
port of the divine ordinances and to
the observation-disclosures of the Church.
If all felt their responsibility rs they
should for the maintenance OF the sane
tuary and for the spread of the Cos
pei, much more money might not on
ly be raised, but raised more easily,
while many a load would be lifted from
those who are making heavy sacrlfi-
ces TO maintain the Lords worship
and to help on bis kingdom .---.Presby-
terian.

Evaporated Sweet Potatoes.

Few people know how easily sweet
potatoes can he dried, even in the sun,
and how handy and useful the dried
potatoes are. At best sweet potatoes
are troublesome crop to keep, but
when dried or cured in an evaporator
they are really no trouble to keep and
are always at hand for use on the table
at short notice. They should be sliced
and then evaporated. Then to use
them they are soaked to restore the
evaporated moisture and then baked
in pans as the fresh ones often are.
They are an admirable article for pud-
dings and pies. For this purpose it
would be better to grind them into
meal and put up in packages with di-
rections for making puddings. Put
up in this way 1t ought not to be
much trouble to create q market for
the dried sweet potatoes. If an eva
porating plant would but undertake
the putting up Of the sweet potato
meal in packages the article would sell
we'll. Grocerymen are slow to take
hold of such products in the crude
evaporated state; put in such packages,
with few attractive hand-bills and
lot of receipts for making the many
delicious preparations that can be
made from sweet potatoes, a market
could soon be made for a product that
Eastern North Carolina can supply in
limitless quantities. Who will start
this enterprise?-W. F. Massey, N.
G. Experiment Station.

The Christians Double Inspiration

In true Christian living, even though
life is struggle, there is always all
inspiration like the breath of an eter-
nal morning; all Inspiration which
thrills our redeemed capacities and
kindIes all irrepress;ble energy for our
lifework. With the thought of dy-
ing there comes also to the Christian
a thrill Of glorious anticipation, "For
TO me to live is Christ, to die is gain,"
Paul wrote from the Roman prison.
He knew that one word Of Royal COM
mand might consign him to instant
martyrdom. His mind was perfectly
calm; he knew that God holds the
heart of men and he welcomed the
divine will whether to live or die.
He had no choice. "What I choose 1
wot not. For ! am in a strait be-
twixt two, having O desire 10 depart,
and to be with Christ which is far
better" 1t might De said that these
lofty sentiments were due to the nat
ural heroisln Of the man rathep than
to any settled habit of Christian
thought. But all that he ever said
concerning living and dying shows
the real source of his overmasteiing
convictions. Christ died for me that
I might have life; Christ lives for me
that I may live; Christ liveth in me
that I may live more abundantly. My
life, purchased by His death, sustain
ed by His spiritual indwelling. be-
longs to Him; "for me to live is
Christ" Death is deIiverance from
the flesh, which lusteth against the
Spirit; from the tempter, from suffer-
ing, from sin; Ito die is gain"

ASSIGNMENT OF GOODS.
w. E. Bell Assigns to r. NJ. Hill for
Benefit OF Creditors.

Our people were surprised last Monday at
the announcement that the millinery and
dry goods store OF Mr.. w. E. Bell was closed.
The liabilities are ascertained to be about
81, 500, and the assets are estimated at between
$1,000 and $4,000. The stock of the goods is
being taken now, and until that work IL fin
lshed. the exact amount OF the assets will
not be known.
The cause OF. the failure is the scarcity OF
money In the country, Mr.. Bells inability to
collect the debts and his failure TO make his
usual large cash sales.
Mr.. Bell has been In business for about nine
years, and during all that time has had the
confidence and goodwill OF the people, aa has
been attested by the extensive trade his store
has had.
He is a man Of excellent ability, possessing
good business qualifications. and 1t seems II
he had been longer INDUCED he might have
paid out. Mr.. Bell. like a good many OF the
rest OF US. could not settle all OF his debts at
once.
There is regret and sympathy for Mr.. Bell.
and 1t is hoped that his affairs may soon be
settled satisfactorily to all, and that he may
soon be able TO resume business as in the past.
He would be missed from the enterprise and
push OF our business circles. By his fair
dealing he has made many friends.

For the second time within q few
months a petty judge has effectually
estopped the higher civil authori>ies
in the enforcement of good laws. The
Duval Club secured all injunction
restraining Governor Mitchell from
interfering with the Corbett-Mitchell
fight, and even after proclaiming with
great show of determination that the
law against prize-tghters would be
rigidly enforced, and after sending the
State militia to the scene under strict
orders to prevent the fight, at the last
moment the governor basely and cow
ardly surrendered to the dictum of
this inferior court. This is perhaps
a dictum of this inferior court. This
ia perhaps a naturel sequence CT the
recent surrender of the United States
Government to the judicial jugglery
of a drunken judge. President Diaz
declares that Prizefghting is too brutal
for even "bull-fghting" Mexico.

Farm and arden Notes.

Farm and Garden Notes.
Now Is the time to top dress the
orchard.
The main force in the dairy is the
man or woman who superintends it.
Whenever the weather will permit
all house-plants should be we'll aired.
1t is said that a tree Is not properly
set unless so solid you cannot pull 1t
up.
The churn should not be filled
nearly full Of cream. II it Is, butter
will not come quickly.
The currant needs a deep rich soil,
rather moist. In order 10 make large
crops of choice fruits.
By tramping down the snow around
the stems of the trees girdllng by
mice may usually be prevented.
A good coat Of whiteWash with a
few handfuls of wood ashes stirred In
it Is a good remedy for bark lice.
Pumpkins are now known to be
good feed for dairy cows, as they form
good milk-producing fodder.
Grape vines should always be prun-
ed in mild weather during the winter
in order to avoid bleeding in the
spring.
The floors of corn cribs should be
raised far enough from the barn floor
to prevent rats haaboripg under
them.
Corn meal and barley meal mixed
form good pig feed. Barley is the
great pig-fattening food Of England.
Plants do not receive all their food
through the roots, but take O consider
able portion Of it from the air through
the leaves.
When the ground is frozen hard is
the best time 10 move a tree of any
size, taking it up with the earth and
moving all together.
Picking the potatoes over and re-
moving the rottOn ones about once a
month during the winter will lessen
the loss from that course.
For their fruit and other attractions
one or more mulberry trees should be
found on the farm.
The colder the weather the more
attention should be given to the stock.
Keep them warm and Ill close
quarters.
Frostbitten hay and poor marsh hay
should not be fed tn the cows In large
quantities, as it will affect the quality
of the butter. A little marsh or salt
hay is good, and makes a fine relish.

A Good Lesson.

81 am afraid I'll fail" said one who
was almost persuaded to accept of
Christ, and enter upon the Christian
life by publicly confessing him. The
answer was: would you refuse to
accept Of fortune If il were freely
offered you. in the fear that you might
become poor again? Would you re-
fuse to accept of bread if you were
starving, in the fear that you might at
some time in the future be hungry
again ?
Would you refuse to come to the
fire if you were cold, because of the
possibility of your being cold again -?
Are you afraid that Gods grace will be
exhausted after awhile. ."-United
Presbyterian.

There is nothing we ought to 90
that we may not expect God TO help

There is no place in the Bible where
God has promised to make a loafer

1t will no doubt be found that many

There is nothing more sure than
that the sinner who will give up his

Whenever Christian sees sparro"

An hours industry will do more TO
