Many a household is saddened by death
because of the failure to keep on hand

Remember, that after the 31st Of

are coming in very slow, most Of the
large taxpayers have way OF hold
ing their money to the last moment
hoping for an extension. But Cover
nor Ellerbe says there will be no e2-
tension this year, he believing that
the class intended to be benitited by
an extension are not benefited, but
that it is the banks. railroads, mills
and other corporations that take ad-
vantage of an extension of time.
The sooner a cough or cold is cured with
out harm to the sufferer the better. Lin

Recently a conversation took place IN
this town and the topic was the growth OF
Manning, its freedom from scandal so
common IN other towns, and the sobrlety
OF our young men. 1t was asserted that
not one of the young men of this town are
addicted to the drink habit, when one OF
the party astounded the rest by asking
'.are YOU dreaming?" and he seemed sur
prised for the lack of knowledge OF the ma
bits of our young men. Said this gentle
men 1--WE have some tough customers rlgns
here like elsewhere. and when you people
are asleep these chaps are out on larA
and get so drunk that assistance Is neeoeo
to get them home Not so long ago party
vas out and if you had noticed their eyes
the next morning you would nave tno0eh1
that they had washed their faces in boiling
water; they actually had to wear their hats
on the back of their heads, so swollen had
their heads become from the spree. These
cheppies may think they are foollng the
public, but oh, no; the care-worn faces OF
parents and the serious faces OF their en-
ployers tell the tale, that the conduct OF
these young men is serious matter.
This information was q surprise to the
party and we hope the gentleman is mis-
taken, that the party referred to was none
of our boys, and if he did see any OF the
Manning boys they were not under the
influence of liquor. We do not oeleTe IN
holding too tight rein on youth, because
We know that "boys will be boys" but
then there is difference in being boys
and the cause of aching hearts of parents,
the loss of employers confidence and the
loss of respect OF the community st large.

A Good Man Crosses the River.
--~<~N-

Died suddenly last Friday evening.
Mai. J. r. Mclean, in the seventy
second year Of his age.
Maj. Jesse r. Mclean was born ID
Guilford county, n. c., and the home
of his childhood was very near the
historic Guilford battle ground. He
was of Scotch-Irish descent and his
tall and stately figure and heavy
eyebrows indicated not less than his
name that he was of Scotch origin.
The major was handsome, modest,
clean and pure in his life and very
intellectual. He was a first honor
graduate of Davidson College and
yet the first information his children
had that their father had graduated
with distinction, was learned by
reading a history Of the college. He
was aVerse to blowing his own
horn" and never courted praise. He
graduated in law and was admitted
to the Bar, but his mother was
strongly opposed to his entering the
legal profession and he yielded to
his mothers will against his own
Judgment. He has taught school
from soon after he graduated until a
few hours before his death, excepting
the four years that he served in the
Confederate army. he had a very
fourishing school at Fayetteville, n.
c.. when the war commenced and
the patrons urged him not to give up
the school, but he was among the
first to volunteer his services to his
country, and took part in the capture
of the United States arsenal at Fay
etteville. He went into the war as
lieutenant and at the battle Of Kings
ton he was promoted to the Office OF
major, but he was not IN active ser
vice all the while, for he was detailed
to the camp Of instruction at Ral-
eigh, to instruct the recruits and con-
scripts, and then for time he had
charge of the important and un-
pleasant duty of enrolling conscripts
which kept him continually on the
60, but this and every other duty he
discharged faithfully. He was a
teacher in the Floral Female College,
North Carolina. during the existence
of that popular school. He taught
ten years at Marion in this State.
He taught at Red Springs, Spring
Hill, Plainview and other places.
Few men have had more pupils and
none have loved their pupils more
and been more loved by them. He
was young old man, keeping up
with the times. He was a home
mamie loved his home and loved
his wife, children and grandchildren
devotedly. He had kind word for
everybody and something kind to
say of every one. Many hearts will
be made sad by his death in the two
Carolipas.

Discovered by o Woman.

Another great discovery has been made,
and that too. by q lady in this country:
disease fastened its clutches upon her and
for seven years she withstood its severest
tests, but her vital organs were undermined
and death seemed imminent. For three
months she coughed necessarily, and could
not sleep. She finally discovered way to
recovery, by purchasing of Us a bottle OF
DR.. Kings New Discovery for Consump-
ton, and was so much relieved on taking
first dose that she slept all night, and with
two bottles has been absolutely cured. Her
name is Mrs. Luther Lutz. Thus writes
