Weak Nerves

Indicate as surely as any physical
symptom shows anything, that the or
gans and tissues Of the body are not
satisfied with their nourishment.
They draw their sustenaDee from
the blood, and IL the blood is thin, inn
pure or insufficient, they are i'm state
Of revolt. Their complaints arc made
TO the brain, the king OF the body,
through the nervous system, and the
result of the general dissatisfaction is
what we call Nervousness.
This Is a concise, reasonable expla-
nation Of the whole matter.
The cure for Nervousness, then, is
simple. Purify and enrich your blood
by taking Hoods Sarsapsrilla, and the
nerves, tissues and organs will have
the healthful nourishinent they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness will then
give way to strength and health.
That this is not theory but fact is
proven by voluntary statements Of
thousands cured by Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. Read the next column.

William Gillctte's just made war drama,
"Sccret Service" became an acted play at
the Broad Street theater, Philadelphia.
The two most important parts We're play
ed by actors who have been stars-Edwin
Arden and Maurice Barrymore-and the
heroine was impersonated by Mary Hamp-
ton. The piece has an intense plot and
counterplot and its climaxcs are as explo-
sive as the gunpowdor that clouds now
and then the action. Barrymore is the
romantic hero, but tho fact that he is
spy detracts sympathy from his part. The
role most attractive to the audience is Will
fred Varney, n wounded soldier boy, and
1t is played by Mr.. Arden with the skill
and variety of detail of the tried and sea-
soned actor that Mr.. Arden is, but with
the appearance of youth and impetuosity.

ASSEMBLY.

House take a recess for one hour and Il
was so voted.
After the recess resolutions were passed
appropriating $1,000 to procure colonial
and revolutionary relics Of Rhode ISLAND
for the exhibit at the luternation ExhiDit
In Georgia.; also resolution
allowing Brown University to build q
conduit under Waterman street, with the
consent Of the Providence City Council.
The Salt Pond Appropriation.
Mr.. Heydon, for the finance committee,
reported back the Senate resolution APP
propriating 1000 for the repair OF the
broadway at Great Salt Pond on
Block Island providing the town
OF New Shoreham shall appropriate
$4,000 more and recommended its pas
sage in concurrence. Mr.. Wilson sup
ported the resolution and said that II
the little town of New Shoreham, " hich
has already appropriated s25,ooO, was
willing TO put in $4,000, making
q total OF s40, 900, whom the whole valuation
OF the town is but s70O,000, he
thought the State might help 1t
Out once more. Several other mem bers
spoke for the passage OF the
resolution, Mr.. slocum, however, being
In opposition. He remarked that IL would
be just as practical to dredge out the
Kingdom OF Heaven for a passage to
squeeze the members of the Rhode Island
Legislature through as to attempt to
abolish the Atlantic Ocean in the vicinity
OF Block Island.
Mr.. Sheffield made Q strong argument
against the resolution and stated that
there was no necessity for another hsr-
Dor on Block Island, and reviewed the
previous failures to dredge out
the breachway. Providing the
prospect could be carried out, Mr..
Sheffield claimed that the only advantage
would be the existence OF a water way to
the back door OF one hotel and the possi-
bility for the proprietor TO let row boats.
Mr.. Rowland opposed the nppropria-
tion ss a waste Of money that might bot
ter be expended on the Highways in such
a way that the whole State might derive
some benefit from 1t.
Mr.. Blodgett said that the real question
was: would the appropriation called for
be sufficient to do the work; and that
there is no doubt but that, ifcarrisd out,
the project would be Of incalculable value
to the State and to the navigation OF the
entire world. IL is not local matter.
He sad that he was willing to abide by
the decision of the islanders themselves,
and should vote for the resolution. Mr..
Peck took the same view OF the matter,
MIR. Rounds called for the ayes and noes,
and Mr.. Wilson moved that the bill be
laid on the table. and II was so voted.

Bee Culture at The Exper.
iment Station.

The Experiment Station has
recently completed arrangements
for carrying on some work in
Bee Culture, both to disseminate
information as to Il best
methods to follow i'll Bookkeeping
as we'll as to conduct tests to de-
termine what plans should be
adopted in North Carolina to
make this particular industry as
profitable as possible. In many
sections of the State bee culture
now yields handsome returns
when carefully managed. With
proper use of the improved
methods of late years this result
might be largely increased. It
will be the purpose of the Station
to endeavor to aid in the extern
sion of the industry, and with the
possible improvement of the cul-
ture where it has now found a
foothold. For this purpose the
co operation Of two experienced
bee-keepcrs has been secured, DR..
7. w. Hunter and Mr.. w. H
Hall, both of Forsyth county.
1t is expected that results inter
esting to bee~keepers will be
reached during t Il e coming
season. In the meantime items
of timely interest will be dis
tributed upon the various phases
of the subject.
AS the Station desires to enter
into correspondence with every
bee-keeper now i'll North Ca1o-
lima, each one is cordially re-
qucsted to send his name aud
address to DR.. H. B. Battle,
Director, Raleigh, N. c. Any
items as to the stocks, hives, ETC.,
on hand, and the success or fails
ure heretofore met with, will be
gladly received. Doubtless the
correspondence will be mutually
helpful.

Profit Out Of Waste.

The Atlanta Exposition is the
greatest educator the South has
ever seen.
1t is an instructor to the peo-
pie of every class in the South,
from the lowest to the highest.
The farmer and merchant can
especially learn great things
from it. TO the intelligent and
observing farmer, the exhibitions
show him many things whereby
he can not merely produce better
results on his farms, but save in
the crops he now produces.
To the merchant the Exposi-
ton with its exhibits should
work marked changes in the
conduct Of his business in the
future. He should see the neces-
sity ofkeeping himself before the
public by greater and better adj
vertisements than ever before at
tempted.
The world moves, and no one
who visits Atlanta will leave that
city with any question of its
moving, and at a gait which
only live, wide awake people
can keep up with.
Every Northern visitor to the
Exposition will be impressed
favorably with the South's prog
ress, and entertain a higher ap-
probation of this sections de-
velOpment.
The waste predicted for the
promoters Of the Exposition
will never be realized, but in
stead great returns will be the
product of the Exposition, not
only for the city of Atlanta, but
also for the entire South.-South

Land In The South.

Land as a general thing is
cheap iii the South compared
with other sections of the coun>
try, cheap not because it isn't
worth as much as land in other
sections but because there is
plenty of it, more than the
present population needs or can
utilize There are high priced
lands, too, but these are gener
ally near the cities, are very pro-
ductive, pay we'll and therefore
the owners do not care to sell I'M
less the price offered should
prove All inducelnent, but there
is plenty of land near enough to
cities and towns and to lines Of
railroad which can be bought at
prices exceedingly low compared
with lands similarly located IN
the North or West. It will not
always be SO, for with the ilnmi-
grafton that is now coming into
the South, with its prospective
increase which will be continu-
Gus for years to come, the price
of Southern land is sure to in
crease, and the day is not far
distant when a man will not be
able to buy fairly good land we'll
timbered for less money per acre
than a few cords Of wood would
be worth in the nearest town.
This has beer. and is now no un-
common occurrence, but it will
not continue III u c h longer.
Every acre of land in the South
now adds something to the value
of the laud that will be sold later
on as immigration and popula-
ton increase.

How to Help The Town.

The following which we take
from the Orange (Va.) Observer
is as applicable to Edenton as
elsewhere. II says "When we
begin to study how best to inns
prove and push forward the town
and county, and not sit back and
wait for some one else to do it,
then we will be OH the high road
to success. We can do this by
adopting progressive ideas, TAX
ing lively interest ineverything
that pertains to our material
welfare; supplanting jealousies
with unity Of purpose and kindly
feelings; working together; pull
ing ia one line instead of stirring
up strife; improving our roads
and farms; doing these things in
a business way. 1t is now high
time to move along this line.
Let's be at it."
