Meetings Closed.

The series CT revival meetings
which have been in progress at the
Methodist Episcopal church the past
two weeks, have closed. The pastor,
Rev. A.McCullen, was assisted by Rev.
f. c. Glenn, of Raleigh, who mainly
did the preaching. The meetings
were we'll attended and considerable
interest was manifested. Mr.. Glenn
preached some excellent sermons and
made many friends and admirers
during his stay amongst US. He is a
jealous and earnest worker in the
Masters cause, strong and forceful
speaker and vigorous thinker and
reasoner.
A number of persons protested
faith in Christ as a result of the
meetings., and Sunday morning the
doors CT the church were opened to
membership when there were several
accessions thereto.

EPSOn HIGH SCHOOL.
Fall Term Opens Under F1attering
Auspices-SS Pupils Enrolled at
the BEGINNING,

The Epson High School. located at
EPSON, nine miles from Henderson,
opened the fall term under very
flattering prospects. Fifty-fve is
the number of pupils enrolled with
more to follow.
The principal, Prof. w. r. Allen,
who was graduated from Chapel Hill,
is a man we'll fitted for school work.
and will put forth his best energy and
efforts to make it what the trustees
design-one of the most useful and
creditable institutions of the county.
Prof. Allen is assisted bv Miss
Annie Abernethy, an accomplished
teacher, peculiarly suited to the
duties of the school room, making a
faculty worthy of more pretentious
institution.
The school house is a ere ditable
building of two stories, 22133 feet.
With other branches music and art
will also be taught, for which pur-
pose an additional building Of 14x22
feet has been erected.
This school, which is for bows and
girls, is situated in one of the best
communities in the county and
where such an institution was greatly
needed.
Boarders can be accommodated
when desired and like the tuition on
reasonable terms.
The citizens of that part Of Vance
(than whom there are none better)
are to be heartily congratulated upon
the establishment of the Epson High
school.

community, died, at his home near
town at $3.50 o'clock last Thursday

daughter, survive him. These are
Mrs Buckner Davis, of Rocky Mount,
and Mr.. w. Y. Swain, with whom he
lived at the time of his death. Messrs.

BITTEN BY A SPIDER.

Last December | awoke one night,
finding very sore place on my hand.
l soon became very sick, was taken
with hard chill, and was very sick
at nv stomach. For several days
got worse, and was confined to my
bed for four weeks. l knew it was
from the bite of spider or some
poisonous insect, which was the doc
tors opinion also. A friend of mine
begged me to try Mrs. Joe Persons
Remedy. l did SO, and three bottles
of the Bitters and one Wash package
made perfect cure. My hand is
left with the fingers drawn. but is
perfectly well. I believe if l had
tried it at first l would have been
spared all that suffering so long. l
had for years been suffering from
rheumatism every winter, but since
taking the remedy for that bite l
have not been troubled at all with
it. That Remedy and Wash is all
that it is represented to be.

A Business Parable.

And it came to pass that after he
had advertised his goods there came
unto him great multitudes from all
the region round about, and did buy
of him. And when his competitors
saw it they marveled among them
selves. saying: .'How be it that this
man is busy, while we loaf about
our dcors?" And he spake unto
them, saying: Verify. verify. l say
unto you, in this fast age of push
and rustic, it is easier for camel to
enter the eye of needle than for a
business man to flourish without
Advertising"
And straightway with one accord
they all rose up and went unto the
office of the local newspaper and did
advertise their wares also. And
they found that it was good, for the
multitudes thereafter came unto
them and did buy and went away
satisfied with the bargains which
they did get.-Erchdnge.

SUCCESS AND ADVERTISING.
An Article Must Have Merit Behind
it In Order to Make II q Success.

The GOLD LEAF last week published
a short paragraph from an exchange
to the effect that the Royal Baking
Powder Co. spend something like
$500, 900 year for advertising. The
idea meant to be conveyed was that
even a concern possessing an article
of such recognized merit found ii
profitable to expend such vast sum
in advertising it; yet it occurs to us
that casual reading of the item
might convey wrong impression,
implying that its success is solely
due to this. But such is not the
case. OF course while advertising is
essential all advertising in the world
could not make a success of an article
Of no merit. And so we must recog-
niZe the very high merits of Royal
Baking Powder as we'll as the nerve
OF the manufacturers to spend with
the papers half million year, when
we consider the question Of their adj
vertising appropriation.
or course, the business itself must
be an enormous one to justify so
great an expenditure in publicity.
lhere IS no falIacy more dangerous
than that success can be gained by
advertising an article Of Indifferent
merit. But, given an article Of the
highest quality like Royal Baking
Powder, which when the housekeeper
has once used she finds if she desires
the best food she cannot do without,
then the greatest measure of success
is attained by keeping it continuously
before the public. Great merit and
good advertising are both essential
to make a product great success.
The Royal Baking Powder possessing
the first, its proprietors have wisely
used the second. and the result is
apparent throughout the land. The
Royal company believes that there is
no medium for advertising like the
newspapers, since in these enlight-
ened days everybody reads them.

David Jones Shot.

David Jones, the Danville merchant
tailor, who is we'll known here. was
shot and seriously wounded by a
journeyman tailor from Lynchburg
last week. Mr.. Jones was standing
on the street in Danville talking with
his partner when his assistant walked
up and without warning placed a
pistol to his face and fired The ball
struck Jones in the mouth, knocked
away half of his teeth, tore through
the tongue and lodged in the neck.
The wound was of a very serious
nature and it was apprehended that
the man was fatally hurt. At last
accounts, however, he was doing
well and the chances are that he may
recover. The affair grew out of some
trouble between the two men in
Lynchburg some years ago.
