Good habits,

disorders of the digestive organs, nine
tenths of the medical books in the world
could be safely destroyed. Not only the
minor maladies but the majority of serious
ed digestion. Consumption is undoubtedly
the most deadly enemy with which man
kind has to contend. Like all other vast
ing diseases, it has its origin in disorders
of the digestive organs. AS a result of these
disorders, the appetite falls of; the l1fe-giv-
ing elements of the food are not properly
assimilated; the blood becomes thin and i'm
pure; and all the tissues of the body are i'm
perfectly and improperly nourished; the
lungs become clogged with inert half dead
tissues that offer an attractive soil for the
invasion of the germs of consumption. 1t
has been said thousands of times that con-
sumption is incurable. 1t is not
Ninety-eight per cent. of all cases OF con-
sumption are cured by DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. It corrects all disorders
of the digestive organs, invigorates the liver
and makes the appetite keen and the assim-
ilation perfect; it makes new blood, pure
blood, and lots of it. 1t builds new and
healthy tissue. It is the great fesh-builder.
It acts directly, on the lungs, driving out all
impurities and disease germs. Thousands
have testified to its merits. All good drug.

Good health is the best endowment.
Those who have it cannot be too careful to
preserve it. Constipation is the worst
enemy of good health. 1t causes nearly
every disorder known to physicians. DR..

DICK BUCKING AN OFF YEAR.
Explains Why Ohio Often Goes Demo
cratic and Will Try to Prevent 1t.
Especial to the Post)

Cleveland, Ohio, May 16.-A letter writ
ten by Maj. Charles Dick, Hanna's Ohio
manager, to Republican editor in Cleve-
land is rather interesting. In it Dick
admits that Ohio has gone Democratic
in nearly every off year since the war,
for the reason that in Presidential years
the campaign is always long, arduous,
and usually exceedingly bitter in Ohio
and voters become weary. This. with
the unavoidable disappointments Of ap-
plicants for Offices, causes many to neg
lect to vote.
In view Of these facts Maj. Dick wants
the assistance Of the press, to which the
National committee desires to contrib
ute in every way possible. One way is by
the donation Of boiler plate. Other ways
are not mentioned, but Maj Dick is anx-
ious to learn from the editor in question
what the local situation u.s. Dick finally
says the loss of Ohio would be a severe
rebuke to the administration

/ have selected these States for the
reason that they fairly represent the va
rious sections of the country. 1t will be
seen that more than half of the working
women of Massachusetts, are employed in
manufacturing establishments, and the
next largest number are domestics; more
than half of those in Minnesota are do
mestic; in North Carolina nearly half are
found working in the fields and more
than one-third are domestics; in South
Carolina nearly seven-tenths are found
working in the fields, while less than
seven per cent are in factories; and in
Tennessee more than half are domestics
and nearly thirty per cent work in the
fields The large percentage of factory
women in Massachusetts leads us to con-
clude that when we look into the banks
we will find large accounts, and the very
small percentage in South Carolina sug-
gests opposite results, and SO for North
Carolina, Minnesota and Tennessee.
Then. too, when we take into cons;dera-
ton the fact that the average earnings of
a Massachusetts factory woman is $457
per year, while in North Carolina the ay-
erage is only $500, we expect to see still
greater differences

THEY EARN AND SAVE MORE
WHY SOUTHERN TO1LEkS ~
NOT HAVE LARGER SAVINGS.
SAVINGS BANKS At FACTOr'eo
In Massachusetts, While there are
only Seven in the Whole State
of North Carolina.

ia the Editor: In your issue or April
Doth apmared an editorial suggested by
the highly commendable action Of the
venerable Tr. J. NJ. Worth, of Randolph
comfy. in promoting the Asheboro Mil
Enery. Manufacturing and Mercantile
Company.
In this editorial you say: Zone Of the
secrets of the accumulations in the New
England savings banks and the thrift of
New England people is due to the fact
that almost all the people are wage earn
.ers" Proceeding, the trend Of your ar
gument seems to be that the great diff
ference in savings is mostly due to the
fact that women earn more in New Eng
land than in the South.
l do not undertake to gainsay your
statements, but rather endorse them; and
at the same time l wish to give some
facts along this line and to suggest some
other causes for the great divergence in
the bank accounts of Massachusetts and
North Carolina.
In the United States in 1890, Il per
cent of the males that were 10 years of
age and over, and II per cent Of the
females were engaged in gainful occupa-
tons. In Massachusetts the figures were
81 per cent of the men and % per cent
of the women; in North Carolina they
were Is per cent of the men and 20 per
cent of the women; in Minnesota, the
percentage for women was Is; in South
Carolina 80 per cent, and in Tennessee,
13 per cent. The percentage for men
in these last named States ranged from
IS to IS per cent. For the purposes Of
the matter under consideration, have
thought it necessary to keep in view only
the female part of the wage-earning
population. The percentages for those
employed in each class of occupations to
the total number employed are given in
the statement below for the five States
mentioned above:
