\NIith better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
case, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
. everywhere esteemed so highly b all
who value good health. Its benenciat
effects are due TO the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which IL acts II is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, TO note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended TO the most slSillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,

FORCING

The truck growers of Mount
Pleasant, says the News and
Courier, r preparing to har-
vest a crop Of coin by placing
asparagus on the market two
months ahead of it's regular sea-
son. This is, of course, forced
under glass and is largely an ex-
pertinent SO far.
A prominent gentleman of this
section who was in the city yes
terday said that on the estate of
John Nix some two to three
dozen punches of asparagus had
been raised in hot beds. and
marketed at Sc per bunch. This,
of course, was a very fancy"
price but the demand for early
grass" was SO good that other
farmers we're seriously considers
ing the forcing of it on a larger
scale.
One well-knoWn farmer is pre-.
pairing to force five acres of as
paragus plants. The plan is to
cover the rows with glass. two
feet inside and mulch the middle
between the rows. with pine
straw. It will cost about 50, 500
to prepare the five acres, but the
trucker expects the first crop to
fully repay this expenditure.
This forcing of the plants will
put asparagus on the market the
first week in January, while
crops grown outside do not come
into the market before March.

REASON.

The ARGUS, III common with
many other papers. has repeats
edly pointed out to Southern
farmers the necessity for the
planting of less cotton aud great
er food crops.
It was demonstrated by last
years experience to be advan-
tageous to the farmers TO pur~
sue such q policy.
The price of cotton advanced
to a figure where it can be sold
at a good profit, and the neces-
sity of depending upon the West
for u food supply is obviated,
The Baltimore Manufacturers
Record of last week sets forth
another solid and timely reason
why this policy should OBTAIN to
even a greater extent this year
than last in the fact that there
may be war, in which event the
Southern farmers would be big
benefciaries.
The Record adds that should
there be var in Europe or Amer
lea cotton would quickly feel the
effect and prices decline, while
foodstufs of all kinds would
command the highest prices.
To all reasons which in years
past have been advanced for
special attention to the produc-
ton of grain, fruits, vegetables
and provisions, and less atten-
ton to cotton, is this year added
the world wide unres and the
unfortunate prospect for war in
Europe, which would seriously
and quickly lessen the market
value of cotton.
Increase in foodstuffs should
be the Southern farmers motto
FOR 1896.

The Highest Penalty.

Raleigh, Jan. 12-Gov. Carr
has issued a warrant for the ex-
ecution February ID, at Newton,
of Thomas Covingtnn for the
murder of James Brown, super>
intepdent Of the Long Island
Cotton Mill.
Brown owned a store near the
mill, and having ascertained that
it had been robbed, went one
nigh to watch for the thief. The
following morning his daughter
found him lying on the floor of
the store dead. He had been
shot three times.
Covington confessed that he
had gone to the store to steal and
found Brown wha rushed at him
with a pistol. He sprang on
Brown, wrenching the pistol
from him. threw him down and
shot him three times.
An effort was made to secure a
verdict of murder in the first de-
gree. Covington was superiu~
tendent of the spinning room in
the cotton mill.

ENGLAND THREATENED.
Rhodes Says She Should Have

German Interference.
New York, Jan. l.

New York, Jan. -.
The World will tomorrow
publish the following dispatch
from the Hon. Cecil Rhodes, un>
der date of Cape Town, Jan
uar,y -:
1.-THE position is that within
the Tranvaal there are 70, 900
newcomers and an old population
of IA, 900. With the development
CT the gold industry to a fuller
extent the newcomers amount to
500. 900 in five years, Event
ually to a million; probably
more. From time to time the
position will be upset by the at
tempts of the new population to
claim common civil rights, which
eventually they certainly must
get. Statesmship should give
them some rights now, as the
present state is impossible for
the newcomers, who own more
than half the soil of the Transs
vaal and nine-tenths Of all the
wealth of the country. The new
males outnumber the old FIVE to
one, and are composed largely of
Americans, including the prin-
cipal mine managers.
England is the only great
power in South Africa. She is
now threatened with German in
reference, which she is bound
to resent and resist. In this
she should have Americas sym
pathy. Blood is thicker than
water. Americans above all ma
tions insist on civil rights in
ones industries here at the Cape.

The Shakers have made a great hit.
The Digestive Cordial is said to be the
most successful remedy for stomach
troubles ever introduced. 1t immedi-
ately relieves a pain and distress after
eating, builds up the feeble system and
makes the weak strorg.
The fact is. foods properly digested
are better than ~so-called tonics. The
Cordial not only contains food already
digested. but is a digester of other
foods. Food that is not digested does
more harm than good. People who use
the Cordial insure the digestion of
what food they eat and in this way get
the benefit of it and grow strong.
The little pamphlets which the
Shakers have sent druggists for free
distribution contain much interesting
information on the subject of dyspepsia.
Laxol is not a mixture of drugs. It
is nothing but Castor Oil made palat-
able.
