Kenneth BaAemope had the good
fortune to receive small bottle of
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy when three MEM
berS of his family were sick with
dysentery. This one small bottle
cured them all, and he had some
left which he gave to Geo. w. Ba-
ker, a prominent merchant of the
place, Lewiston, n. c., and it cur
ed him of the same complaint.
When troubled with dysentery, diar-
rhoea, collie or cholera morbus, give
this remedy trial and you will be
more than pleased with the result.
The praise that naturally follows
its introduction and use has made
it very popular. % and so cent

Mr.. Miebach who located here with
his family early in Oct. departs next
week for his old home in Kansas. He
expects to be gone a month or mora and
will bring back with him some of Kan
sas' finest stock, also farming nipple

Mr.. Miebach does not contemplate
farming himself, but expects to stock
a ranch and experiment some with new
varieties of seed.
1t would be very easy to organize Il

the chief industries, and where now with
land valued at fifty dollars an acre, corr

WHERE PEcANs GROW.
Preparation of the Meats Becoming an
Important Industry.

Preparation of the Meats Becoming an
Important Industry.
Perhaps the best of all nuts is that
species of hickory known as the pecan.
1t is native Of the United States,
growing wild in the Mississippi valley
and In Texas. The largest and finest
nuts come from Louisiana, some speci-
mems attaining length of two inches
and diameter of three-quarters Of
an inch. Comparatively few from that
State reach the North, however. In
Bee County, Texas, pecans are grown
with very thin shells, that may be
crushed in the fingers.
In Texas the pecan industry has OBJ
tanned great Importance. Thousands
Of people, white and black, make
living by gathering the wild nuts,
while many plantations Of the trees
have been set out and are already In
bearing. So long ago as 1880 1885,
600 pounds of the nuts were marketed
In San Antonio. or all the hickory
family the pecan seems most suscepti-
bic Of Improvement in the size and
quality of the fruit, and much has
been accomplished in this direction by
planters exercising Judgment In the
selection Of varieties. Il. A. Swinden,
Of Brownwood, Texas, has 400 acres
of pecans, comprising 1000 trees.
The usual method of harvesting pc
cans Is to shake the trees when the
bulls begin to open In the autumn, or
to thresh them with long, light poles
like fishing-rods. The nuts that fall
are picked up in baskets. Wild pecans
used to be gathered quite commonly
In the forest by cutting down the trees
"a practical application Of the princi-
pie Of killing the goose that lays the
golden eggs.
The freshly gathered nuts are placed
In revolving churns, by which they are
cleaned and frightened. A factory in
New York City gives employment to
fifty men and women engaged in the
business Of polishing or FURNISHING"
pecans for market Eventually clean
ing establishments will be set up In the
neighborhood of orchards.
The finest nuts grown from selected
stocks are kept for planting, pecans for
seed being In great demand at present.
Such seed brings as much as $1.50 a
pound; the trade is carried on mainly
by orders through the mails. Small
nuts could be used for making oil. Be-
fore many years the big pecans, an
inch and half to two inches in length,
with paper shells will be on the market
in plenty.
The industry of preparing the meats
Of pecans for market, free from shells,
has already assumed considerable pro-
portions. In 1890 one manufacturers
sold 100000 pounds of the kernels.
Being relieved Of the trouble of crack
ing the nuts and picking out the meats
these processes are now performed
by neutrality-suspicious. are be-
ginning to use pecans quite generally.
Three pounds of nuts contain one
pound Of meats. The meats sell for 80
cents n pound. Pecan oil Is excellent
for table use. 1t makes Il fine illumin-

occupied by large cistern, to catch
the roof drainage, which holds soft
water enough for long drouth. A
pipe should connect this cistern with
the pump that supplies the tank In the

bule, and the bin for the kitchen coal
may open off the large bin; but, to
save steps, small bin of coal can be
kept In the shed. The furnace room
is directly under the front hall, being
tightly boarded or bricked up, to keep

A WOMAN'S WATCH.

Travels All Over Her Person in Search
Of the Fashionable Resting Place.
The watch feminine, says the New
York Times, shares the prerogative OF
caprice with its wearer; 1t is, like her,
free from monotony. Last week il
swung from the belt by a chatelaine
clasp, yesterday it was tucked in the
corsage by a slender fob chain, to- day
1t perches on the left shoulder, steady.
ing itself by a matching brooch, or
tucks itself under a filigree circle OF
gold or silver; tomorrow, according to
the fashionable jeweler, it will do Meth
er nor any of these things, but suspend
itself from short chain, which is
strongly attached at each end to gold
pin. When these pins are caught to the
bodice Of a gown the watch swings be.
tween, the length Of the chain being
sufficient to allow the slight leeway.
1t is an idea already developed by
one woman that the for the moment
useless fob chain can be adapted to this
new attachment by a very simple
means. Let the catch that snaps to the
watch be removed, carefully be reserv.
ed for future use, and decorative pin
made fast in its place. The tiny ball
at the other end is mounted on pin,
and the thing Is done.

sURNAMEs IN IRELAND.

Murphy the COmmOnest, but Smith
Holds It's Own.
One Of the curiosities of recent phil0-
logical literature is the appendix to
the 1898 report of the British Registrar
General, which bears the suggestive
title, "Surnames in Ireland" From
that compilation one who has an eye
for the curious may CLEAN facts and
figures for a most interesting article.
For instance, 1t Is shown that the most
common name on the Emerald Isle is
Murphy, the number of persons, great
and small, who bear that cognomen
being 62,GO0. The following come next
in order of frequency: Kelly, $4,000;
Sullivan, 43,6O0; Walsh, Al, 700; Smith,
$500; O'Brien. 3,40O; Byrne, $4,000;
Ryan, $4,000; Conner, $1,000; O'Neil,
29,11O; and Reilly, 10000.
The compilers of the article under
consideration have very accommodate
ingly made comparison Of the above
with the commonest names in England
and Wales, which shows the following
interesting figures: CommoneSt names
in Great Britain, exclusive Of Scot
land and Ireland, Smith, 253, 6O6; next,
Jones, 242, 100; next following being
Williams, Taylor, Davies and Brown,

the order is: Smith, Mcdonald, Brown,
