The Greatest Triumph
YET ACHIEVED ny
Mrs, JOE PERSONS REMEDY.
Can be Cured Cancer Has
Been Curea---This 10 Worth
Reading Don't Pass it BY.

/ am frequently asked about the ae-
ton of my remedy in cases Of cancer,
and while l have never brought il
forward as cancer cure, my expert
ence has proven that taken in its early
stages there is no trouble in efTecting
a cure, and in advanced cases, it win
hold it in check, give freedom from
pain, and by using the Wash in con
nection with the bitters, all offensive
ness arising from any chronic sore is
counteracted, and it viii also alleviate
any itching trouble connected with
the case.

In letter written June 6, 1894. Mra.
Rivers says:
Mrs. Person, will write to let you
hear from me. My nose does not give
me any trouble whatever; / am in bet.
ter health than have been in five years
and feel stronger, but without tho
medicine would not be so. am still
taking the remedy, though / stopped
it for a while last fall and my nose
got worse. j had rather see you than
anybody in the world and want you
to write to me. My postoffice is now
Axtell, Warren Co., N. c., new Office.
a letter received from Mrs. Rivers,
dated February 28th, '95, says:
Mrs. Person, please send me another
box of your Remedy. l am better OF
now than I have been in two years,
but I thought / might get worse this
spring, and probably had better take
a little more medicine"
Whether my Remedy will cure Mrs.
Rivers or not, time can alone deter
mine; one thing is certain, she would
have died had she not obtained my
Remedy when she did, and her letter
tells what it did for her at once; and
it is now holding it in absolute check,
and / believe, by building up her sys-
tenn, it may eventually cure her.
Very truly,
MRS. JOE PERSON.

Rev. J. A. Campbell, Principal of

writes@a hopeful and cheering letter
in this weeks Biblical Recorder, from
which we quote:
"a few years ago Harnett had no
permanent school. Now Prof. J.. G.
Clifford has fine school at Dunn.
Rev. &. Y Brooks, at Bunnlevel, is de
lighting the people with his excellent
work; and our work at Buie's Creek
was never so hopeful as at present.
Besides these Academies there are a
great many private schools running for
few months in each year and the pub
tic schools are much improved. Our
people are awakening, the day is

shall not become one Of the best see
tions of the State Our people are
kind, hospitable, law-abidfng as a rule,

! PUBLIC LIBRARY FOX RALEIGH

The proposition to establish Pub
lie Library invites interest all over the
State. The Institute Monthly, pub
lished by the Smithfield Collegiate In
stitute. said in it's last issue:
raleigh is soon to have public Ii
brary. We are glad to see this work
begun and hope to see it go ON until
every town in the State, within popu-
latioil of 500, viii have at least small
circulating library of one hundred
yolumns. This would have tenden-
cys to keep young men and boys from
places of corrupting amusement.
ssReading makes full man." How are
Their poorer class of people going to read
without bools2 And how are they
going to Get these books unless they
have library? Every public spirited
man should be willing to give ten or
fifteen dollars to this cause. 1t would
be a means Of elevating the moral char
acter of Young men and helping to ed
ucate the MASSES The time once was
when a man could get along in this
country without an education, but now,
nnless the binding scales of ignor-
arlce have fallen from his eyes, he cam
not cope successfully with his fellow
men. and what would be a better be-
ginning than establishing libraries in

IN MAJ. HALE's FAVOR.
Decision in the Whitehead and Hale
Case Over the Control of the Fayet-
fayille Observer.

Case Over the Control OF the Fayet-
teville Observer.
In the case of z. w. Whitehead VS..
e. J. Hale, the Judgment of the lower
court. in favor of the defendant, was
affirmed. Mr. Whitehead brought the
action to forecIose a mortgage on a
newspaper and outfit, and asked that
the property be taken out of the con-
troll of Major Hale and put in the hands
of a receiver.
The opinion says: THE allegation OF
the defendants insolvency and poverty,
taken alone, is not sufficient grounds to
take the porpertN = his hands,
which he AYERS is free from
any legal claim of e. aintltf, espe-
cially when the effect Of the Judge $
ruling is, as we have seen, that the
security is not being impaired but ID
truth has doubled in value and is stead
ily increasing in worth, and that IN TACT
to appoint the receiver would be reaily
to destroy the chief value of the prop
erty. Upon proper state OF facts, d
receiver can be appointed Ola neWspa-
per as well as of any other properly,
but upon the peculiar state OF facts
found in this case, to appoint a receiver
would be a great injury to the defend,
ant and no benefit to the plaintiff, and
the Judge below properly left the prop
erty in the hands of the defendant until
q iurv could pass upon the controverted
issue of fact whether the plaintiff has
any sum due him for which he can ask
a decree of foreclosure.
Major Hale alleges that he owes Mr..
Whitehead nothing.

this is not for the few but for the many
1t is, therefore, hoped that all classes
can be induced to respond to this call
