to some but my heart did not beat as
it should. It's action was irregular.
There would be two pulsations, or Pc"

ton. My heart seemed to rest for the
period of one or two beats, and then
resume it's action. Sometimes SUCH
lapses would not be so frequent as that
but scarcely a day passed that they
did not occur. It felt as though some
thing would strike the heart with great
force, and push it out OF place. Dur
ing that period; whenever / lay down
to sleep or restJ my hands would be-
come perfectly numb and helpless. I
could feel the temporary paralysis
coming over them, but I could do moth

considerable difficulty in walking when
such a spell had possession of me,

Fourteenth Annual Session North Caro-

City, N. c., June IS IS, 1897.
Especial attention is called to the
above occasion. The rates offered by
the Southern Railway are extremely
low, being less than one frst-class fare
for the round trip, and membership in
the Association entities the holders of
tickets for this occasion to a rate 81 per
day at the magnifc 9nt Atlantic Hotel,
at Morehead City. This affords an ex-
cellent opportunity to visit the seashore
and spend a delightful outing at More

new management this season, and
is being conducted in first class
style. On June 1916 through
coaches will be operated to Morehead

MEETING OF BOARD OF EDUCA
TON.

RALEIGH, N. O., June 4th, 1897.
At a meeting of the State Board of
Education on May 296h, 1897, the fol.
lowing resolution was adopted:
THAT in case the general State fund
shall not be sufficient to meet the pay
ment of the $50. 600. 90 appropriated by
the Public School Law OF 1897, the
Board of Education authorizes q loan
from the School fund to- the general
State Fund sufficient to meet such ap
preparation or so much Of it as may be
called for"
There is now no longer any doubt as
to the Local Taxation Act as passed by
the last General Assembly. We want
the united force Of the press in North
Carolina in the interest OF Public Edu-
cation. We are becoming more and
more q reading people. A larger part
of the masses of the people read the
newspapers today than ever before.
We want the united force of the
pulpit, of the Teachers, and of all the
true men and women in our State to
arouse the masses Of the people on the
subject of Education and on the i'm
portance Of the election to take place
on Tuesday after the second Monday in
August. We want q campaign for
"AuSaCIOu. Inc oppo6lGlou 60 be over
come is great. The work to be done is
immense.
1t there are friends of Education who
cannot go out among the people and
yet want TO do something for the
cause, they a help by giving money
TO meet the expenses Of those who are
willing to go and proclaim the doctrine
or universal Education,
We hope to be able to effect an or
genlzatlon at the Teachers Assembly
whereby we may have some man in
every county in the State.
We are in the fight to accompIisb
something. We have had considerable
space devoted to US to show our iQnor-
ance, &C., but our zeal rises with the
opposition.

Riding Ought to Get Cheaper--Profts
In the Past and Now.
B.-"HeIIol Mr.. Editor"
R.-'Hello! Major. Any news to
dayH"
B.-"Not much. I haint got much
ter say, but I recon 1 mite az well talk
q little anyway. Isee that the rail
road commishun hes got sorter reli
gious like an reduced the rate On telle
phones a little. If talk haint cheap
now, it il a little cheaper than it Wuz.
Now, if the Commishun will git up an
other revival ov religion an cut rail
rode rates ter sorter correspond with
the prices ov farm products an other
goods, which prices the owners ov the
failroades an the other goldbugE are
responsible fer, then things would be
sorter on a parity. Them fellers were
so disturbed erbout keepin' silver an
gold on a parity sum time ergo. 1
think we orter hev other things on a
parity. Of course ridin' IL cheaper
now than it wuz sum years ergo, but
you could ride several time az far fer
the price ov q bale cotton, load ov ter
hacker or a horse az you a now.
Even if the gross price wUzzent twice
az large, (hough it wuz up ter ten
years ergo the profit wuz several times
az large. With cotton at six or seven
dollars a hundred there il no profit.
But at 10, IL or IA dollars per hundred
the profit Wuz very nice an'prof1tsco count
In farmin]az we'll az In merchandizin'
or manufacturin', an so the farmer
could sell q bale ov cotton at say IL
dollars per hundred an afford to ride
five hundred miles on the train az
easily az he can afford ter ride fifty
miles now. So, I say, the goldbugs
must either give us the good old pros
porous times or we must compel them
ter cot their rates an prices IN every
thing to be on q parity with the hard
times they are givin' US. I dare them
ter deny the justice ov this argymint.
I'm sorter ov q goldbug my self, but I
am like the others; I know it il wrong
an I'm fool enuf ter say so, though
most ov EN- are too moeet ter
own the corn. I'll bet Col. Joseph Pie
Caldwell will cry treason when he
reads this, but the Colonel il too smart
ter enter a denial. Col. Joe an I are
both dymakrats jist bekase we started
out that way. We are goldbugs bekase
most ov our rich, %highfalutin' friends
are goin' that way. But we like ter
see other folks doin' rite whether we
do or not. We ri jist tryin' ter be
agreeable. When Col. Johnsin Gums
out ter my house he ANYWAYS brings
up the money question an llaments er
bout the ooEdeIIded folks whut are
tryln Ger debase our currency. The
N.fEEESSn is, the Col. hes bin gittin' deeper
In debt sinse the hard times struck us,
an he can't git enuf sound money ter
pay the interest, but he keeps sidin'
with the goldbugs, an me an him hev

highly recommended as a scientific op-

requirements of the eye, but gives the
proper correction in all cases. He fits
with accuracy all cases of myvpia, pres

asthenopia and astigmatism in all its
different forms. Special attention given
to children's eyes, which should not be
neglected while they are young and at
tending to their studies. He can cor
