NOTE BY THE MANUFACTURER;
 Some manufacturers boast of how large their bottles of medicine are. Others of how sweet theirs is. Others of how cheap theirs is. boast only of the great merit of John- sons Tonic. am in the medicine business, not in the confectionery line. I have striven to make the best medicine, not the. sweetest. Johnson's Tonic has made a record for iteeif of having cured 516 cases of fever out of every 517 cases. We are not in the business to tickle the peoples palate. but to cure them. Those people who regard their palates of more importance than their lives are not worth saving. When ne and death are the issues. the taste or the size or the price are too trifiing matters to consider. Johnson's Tonk cures. That is good reason for using 1t.

HOLLY SPRINGS RICE FARM.
The Remarkable Profits from 60 Acres
Planted by Mr.. Herbert X Norris.

When Mr.. Herbert E. n iris was in
the city yesterday he was talking to a
NEWS AND OBSERVER reporter about
crops, and casually referred to 90 acres
which he had put in rice at his place
near Holly Springs He is now gather
ing nice crop, which will turn out be-
tween $500 and 8, 900 bushels. This
seems to be an experiment in this part
of the country, for the eastern men have
always said that rice couldn't be raised
hereabouts for profit, but they will prob
ably be surprised at the showing here.
Mr. Norris planted this rice in the bed of
his mill-pond, and it will bring, at dol
lar a bushel, say 81 700. Ar. Norris
said about two thirds of this would be
profits, which shows net proceeds of
$1,000 on the go acres Mr.. Norris is
now thrdshing the rice with hired force
of about so men and will sell it to the
mills at Wilmington, Charleston and
Savannah, where the husk will BE- got
out Of it, Seven years ago Mr. Norris
had rice crop destroyed by a freshet
aud even then he made 987 bushels.
These are the only two crops he has
raised.

G.Z. FRENCH ON FUSION.

He Makes Kaown, Moreover. for the
First Time why the Appropriation
Was Not Made for the Atlanta Expo
sition.
G. z French arrived yesterday from
Wilmington and is registered at the Var,
boro. He will remain in the city until
the departure of the east bound train to-
day. Mr.. French is a member OF the
General Assembly from New Hanover
and is in the city on business. Is it for
the purpose of meeting Senator Prltch-
ard, who will be here today Apropos
of that, Mr.. French's views on fusion
were asked by reporter of the NEWS
AND OBSERVER, and he said he was for
for fusion with the Populists for the
State, but didn't see how such thing
could be accomplished for the national
candidates. He thought the Srae fusion
would be made just about as it was the
last time.
Reference being made to the Atlanta
Exposition, Mr.. French said that prob u
bly, rhe appropriation for North Caro-
lina's representation would have been
carried through had it not been
for one incident. An Atlanta paper
accidentally fell into the hands of the
Fusionists. 1t contained resolutions of
indignation by the North Carolinians
living in Georgia against the Douglass
resolutions. Mr.. French sal this action
in Georgia put those who happened to
see the paper (Which was handed around)
in high dudgeon, and thus the bill missed
fire. Mr.. French spoke in the highest
way of the efforts of Mr. j. A. Holmes,
State Geologist, and he said he was glad
to feel that he was somewhat instrumen
tai in keeping his office from being
abolished and in keeping so valuable a
man in the service of the state.
