The speaking began at twelve o'colck.
Mr.. Josephus Daniels, the first speaker,
was introduced by Rev. J. Fl. Burt. Mr..
Daniels spoke for an hour on State
issues, dwelling particularly upon the
threat of sending troops into North Car
olina to overawe the people.
Dinner was then served. 1t was n
bounteous repast of all substantials and
delicacies. and more than enough for all
present.
After dinner, Capt. w. II. Shaw. of
Henderson was introduced, and made u
powerful speech that charmed all his
hearers. 1t was by all odds the ablest
speech on the silver question that has
been delivered in the campaign. and
won the warm praise of all the audience,
including Populists as well as Democrats
Capt. Shaw made fine impression and
whenever he speaks again in that section,
acres of people will turn out to hear
him.
The outlook is greatly improved in
both Middle Creek and Holly Springs,
and there is confidence there that
Wake will go Democratic.

Jollity and exhuberant health are a pro-
verbal combination. The hearty man who
is always laughing doesn't have any trouble
with his digestion. 1t has been said that
laughing makes people healthy. The truth
is that health makes people laugh.
1t is impossible to estimate the ire
mendous influence of health upon human
character. A man with headache will
not be in a happy, contented frame of
mind A man who suffers from a weak
stomach and an impaired digestion will sit
and grunble through the best meal ever
prepared. a bilious man who is not
bore, is deserving of place in museum
A nervous man who is not petulent and
fault finding is a curiosity. All these con-
ditions lead TO grave diseases, when the
victim becomes not only disagreeable, but
dependent as well. A wise wife will real
