In FIVE weeks. Those of his friends
who do not know the facts Of his sick

The reason that it is necessary to be
well covered while sleeping is that
when the body lies down it is the in
tention of nature that it should rest,
and the heart especially should be re.
ieved of its regular work temporarily.
So that organ makes ten strokes u
minute less than when the body is in
an upright posture. This means 600
strokes in sixty minutes. Therefore,
in the eight hours that man usually
spends in taking his nights rest the
heart is saved nearly 5000 strokes. AS
it pumps six ounces of blood with each
stroke, it lifts 10000 ounces less of
blood in this night session than it
would during the day, when man is
usually in an upright position. Now,
the body is dependent for its warmth
on the vigor Of the circulation, and as
the blood flows so much more slowly
through the veins when one is lying
down the warmth lost in the reduced
circulation must be supplied by EXTRA
coverings.

A Suit Without O Parallel.

Memphis, Tenn, lawyers have
brought suit in Weakley County for
damages for defamation Of character,
alleged to be contained in an epitaph
cut on n tombstone. Such q cause for
action Is probably unheard of in the
annals of the courts of the country. In
December, 1896, L. B. Cate was shot
and killed by one Bill Penic. Penio
was indicted and tried on the charge Of
murder. He was defended by the same
lawyers who are now acting for him
in this civil suit. The accused was ac.
quilted on the plea OF self-defense.
The parents of the deceased, L. B. Cate,
thought to honor his memory by erect.
ing a suitable tombstone over his
grave, and having cut in the marble q
legend setting forth some Of the circum.
stances Of his taking off. The follow
ing was cut on the tombstone:
al. B., son of j. G. and L. ]. Cate.
Born April 10, 1870. Married Willie
Freeman December 81, 1887. Was shot
and killed by Bill Penic December IL,
1896; caused by Penic swearing to o
lie on Gates wife. Aged 26 years 8
months and / day"
1t is alleged by Penic that this stone
was lettered By j. H. Hutchinson, Of
Martin, and 1t is alleged that the stone
was exposed to public gaze in the yard
Of Hutchinson for quite a while before
it was erected at the head of the grave
containing the remains of the deceased
Cate. Since the vindication of Penie
by the trial jury in Weakley County he
has sought reparation for the wording
Of this tombstone. The complainant
seeks damages from the sculptor and
the father of the deceased in the sum
of $4,000.

uNLuCkY NUMBER.
How Thirteen Pursued Comedian Bon
iface All Through n Journey.

George @. Boniface, Jr., Is one OF
the few comedians who are not super
stitious. He does not like the number
13, however. Boniface lives at Pleas
ure Bay, and since the trolley cars run
between that point and Asbury Park
he spends great deal of time on them.
A few days ago, while standing ON the
platform of the car, he noticed the num-
Der 13 painted on it. Good Lord, num-
ber 1917 exclaimed the comedian, and
hastily reaching into his vest pocket, he
pulled out a rabbits foot and rubbed 1t
vigorously on the lapel of his coat. The
conductor smiled anu said:
You're trifie supersitihous, aren't
you?"
"Oh, not very replied Boniface.
II thought you'd like to KNOW" con-
tnued the conductor, carelessly, ''that
you're the thirteenth fare I've had this
trip"
Boniface looked uneasy and made an.
other dive for the rabbits foot. On
reaching Asbury Park the car encoun-
tered a funeral. Half a dozen carriages
had passed when the motorman rang
bis gong and started ahead. The driver
Of the seventh carriage pulled up his
horses. Bonlface jumped about ex.
cttedly.
stop the car" he yelled.
"What forT asked the conductor.
"What for?" shrieked the comedian.
'Why, We'll go right through the funer.
al, and that Is the most unlucky thing
you can do"
But the car went on, and Boniface,
swearing loudly, jumped off before the
last of the funeral had crossed.
pretty big funeral" said the con-
ductor to another passenger.
Not very" was the reply. 81 only
counted thirteen carriages"

"A Lock O. NapoIeon.s uatr.

A unique souvenir of the great Napo-
leon is kept in the family of his old
nurse and attendant. being now in the
possession of Prof. Bagley, of Abilene,
Kan. He is native of the island of
st. Helena, and his mother was one of
the intimates Of the guardians of Ma
poleon. When the Emperor lay dying
his old nurse stole to his side and
clipped from his head a lock of hair.
Part of the lock she gave to Mr.. Bag
leys mother and she gave it to her son.
1t is kept in bottle and is black and
gray, with trace of brown. For forty
years the bottle has been kept in dark
room, that the hair may not be injured
by the light. There are about forty
strands in all. The relic is held at a
great value by the possessor. He has
also some cloth from the coffin, medal
given by Napoleon and some other
minor souvenirs from the island of st.
Helena.
The only other portion of the body cr
Napoleon known to be on this continent
IS a single hair that Richard Watson
Glider once owned. He kept it in his

A CRAFTY LITTLE MERCHANT.
But then 1t Was in Philadelphia that
He Worked His Scheme.


He was about the fattest roly-poly OF
a boy that one would see in long
days walk. As he waddled along ex.
citedly attempting to whistle after a
York and Dauphin street car he
aroused the laughter Of all who hap
pened to be in sight of him, says
Philadelphia paper. The conductor Of
the car finally saw him and yanked the
bell to stop. The fat boy puffed up and
rolled on board. pretty hard fur fat
feller to have to run fur a carp he
puffed, grinning good-naturedly upon
the carful of passengers. Everybody
grinned back at him, and two or three
seat. He sat down, with his round face
still lAaming good-humoredly upon his
fellow passengers. The latter watched
him amusedly. The boy carried small
basket on his arm, and after a while,
when he had recovered his breath, he
took a handful of chocolate candies
from this basket and walked along the
aisle, giving each passenger a piece.
Then he resumed the seat, and the pas
sengers, laughing across the car to each
other, began munching their candy.
The fat boy waited until nearly all the
candy had been eaten, whereupon he
rose again and with outstretched palm
went the rounds again saying, "One
cent apiece, please" The passengers
We're simply dumbfounded, but they
had all eaten their candy, and there
was nothing for them to do but cough
up" their pennies. The boy collected
about 10 cents, and at the next street
he got of the car. W,bistlinG merrily.

AFTER VICTORY WHAT =?

The public mind is already for a sweep
ing Democratic victory.
What will the Democrats do when
they VIM" asked a Populist few days
ago. Il want White Supremacy, but /
want to know if the Democratic party
will give no other reforms as well"
The answer to this, as well as all other
such inquiries, is contained in the Dem
ocratic platform. which we print to-day.
The Democratic platform is the official
utterance and pledge of the party. Ev-
cry man elected to office this year by
Democrats is bound by the declarations
contained in that platform, and pledged
to vote for the measures therein prom
Used. No man or committee can dot

platform. 1T is the party's chart, and

MAMMOTAH FRAUDS CONTeMPLAD,

The evidence multiplies that the Fu-
sionists in their desperation hope to win
by committing frauds.
The first fraudulent work was to have
the registration books filled with illegal
negro voters, and to vote boys 16 years
old. and negroes, who had been dead sew
eral years. In the country districts this
would not easily be done, and they chose
the cities for this illegal padding of the
registration books.
Yesterday the vigilance of the Demo
Gratis in Charlotte enabled them to have
800 illegal names taken from the regis
traton books, and on the previous day,
the vigilance of Raleigh Democrats com
PEELED the Fusionists to erase the names
of 80 dead negroes and illegal voters
from the registration books.
What do these two instances Prove:
That in many places the registration is
padded. and the Fusionists are trying to
win by voting dead men, boys, ex-con-
victs and imported negroes.
On your guard, white men! The fruits
of victory already won shall not be stolen
by conspiratorS.

VOTE IT AS IT IS PRINTED.

This is a year when very little has
been said about candidates. In a great
crisis like the present, when the very
civilization of the race is at stake, no
man is more than the agent of his
brethren to carry out the purposes that
animate every true white man.
There never was time when the
Democratic party had emphasized the
value of personal character as in their
nominations this year. The contrast
between the candidates in most instances
tells eloquently the story Of the wide diff
ference between the parties. But the
issues have been so momentOus that the
merits of candidates has not been EN-
phasized.
If there is any white man in the State
who thinks Of scratching the name OF
any candidate on the ticket from con
stable to Congressman, our last word is
"Don't." Vote the Democratic ticket
as it is printed. 1t is printed on pure
white paper and the printer has done
his work well. Do not make botch OF
it by scratching it, but vote the ticket
lust as it is printed. The wisdom OF
the whole party can be more safely fol.
lowed than the judgment of any one
man.
