IMPROVEMENT OF STREETS.
Mr.. Stronach Asks Some Questions OF
Mr.. Drewry.

To the Editor: =
| have seen the reply of Mr.. Drewry
to enquiries propounded by some of our
citizens, and, in the main, on its face it
seems to make IL good showing for the
street committee, but there are some
points worthy of mention and while
had nothing to do with the original ar
ticle, | hope | may be pardoned for call
ing attention to them.
/ note that Mr.. Drewry says that
Sl04, 566.90 has been expended III the
last four years, of which S16,417 was
paid for Belgian block paving. | don't
know where this has been laid-the only
piece of Belgian block that is i'll the
city, is the block on Fayetteville street
between the capital and Hargett street,
all that / know Off Belgian block has
been laid for 81 per square yard it is
remarkably cheap. AS to the excavation,
&c, for grading, the price at which it
was done per cubic yard seems reasona-
bic, but has not entirely too much been
done? Our city is more attractive be-
cause it is rolling or hilly, and its beauti-
full appearance is marred by attempting
to grade the streets too much--clltting
down streets and leaving houses propped
up on hills. 1t seems i'll this respect
GOOD Judgment has not been shown.
Again it is to be noted that about
$4,000 of the general fund has been
used in street work outside of the money
derived from the sale of lands. My
recollection is that when the issue of
bonds was voted for it was stated that
the general fund was not to be used, but
the amount heretofore appropriated FOR
street improvements was to be used Tor
paying interest on the bonds and Gre
ating IA sinking fund. How is this!
The report shows that about Solooo
has been expended i'll paving, but II
does not show the amount received
from private individuals by the city for
this part of the cost. AS the city only
paves onehalf of the street, and the
abutting property the other half tone
fourth each the amount received by the
city from this source should be about
S31 900. What has become of this?
The Finance Committees report ac-
counts for about $1,000. but this is a
small part. Perhaps Chairman Me

THEY RlDiCULE IT.
Many People Ridicu'e the Idea Of an Absolute
Cure for Dyspepsia and Stomach
Troubles.
Ridcule, However, is Not Argument, and
Facts Are Stubborn Things,

Stomach troubles are so common and
IN most cases so obstinate to cure that
people are apt to look with suspicion on
any remedy claiming to be a radical
permanent cure for dyspepsia and indi-
gestion. Many such pride themselves
on their acuteness in never being hum
plugged, especially in medicines.
This fear of being humbugged can be
carried too far, so far, in fact, that many
people suffer for years with weak di-
gestion rather than risk little time and
money in faithfully testing the claims of
a preparation so reliable and universally
used as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important respect
from ordinary proprietary medicines for
the reason that they are not Il secret
patent medicine, no secret is made of
their ingredients, but analysis shows
them to contain the natural digestive fer
ments, pure aseptic pepsin, hydrastis
and nuX. They are not cathartic, neither
do they act powerfully on any organ
but they cure indigestion on the COM
mon sense plan of digesting the food
eaten thoroughly before it has time TO
ferment, sour and cause the mischief
This is the only secret of their sue
cess.
Cathartic pills never have and never
can cure Indigestion ard stomach trou-
bles because they act entirely on the
bowels. whereas the whole trouble is
really in the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken after
meals digest the food. That is all there
is to it, Food not digested or half di-
gested is poison as it creates gas, acid
ity, headaches, palpitation of the heart,
loss of flesh and appetite and many 9TH
or troubles which are often called by
some other name.
They are sold by druggists everywhere
at 80 cents per package. Address f. A.

HOW STOCK LAW PAYS.
Wake Farmers Get More Money for
Butter Than Chatham Farmers.

W axe dfnlerS tTet More MOuey IOF
Butter Than Chatham Farmers.
Mr.. ID. Il. Johnson, of Raleigh, writes
an interesting letter in this weeks
Chatham Record which has general III
terest. Referring ito a vote to be taken
by the people of the southeastern section
of Chatham county ON Il proposition to
establish the stock Law, Mr.. Johnson
writes:
Il know this--that Wake county farm
ers are making more money, they have
better stock, make more milk and butter,
more bacon, and get better prices than
they did before they had the stock law.
Before we had this law / sold hundreds
of pounds of butter for the people OF
Chatham, now | do not sell pound and
whyI Wake county has just driven
Chatham butter virtually out Of this
market, by furnishing us plenty Of high
grade butter. And they get 20 to %
cents per pound for it. Chatham people
can hardly get 10 cents for theirs, they
can't furnish the quality. l pay one farm
er $4,000 a year for butter and do not
get over half his product. | pay another
man 100000 a year and still another
more than $4,000. Raleigh consumes
great quantity of butter, chatham is
not getting her share of this trade and
never will until she falls in line with
her sister counties, and enters the stock
law. This will give them better stock
which means more milk and better but
ter made by the improved methods of
today We have no less than 20 farm
ers i'll this county who are making more
money from their cows tnan from their
cotton, while the man with only one COW
getting his pro rata share of the bene

ADVICE TO YOUNG LADIES.

with an apology to Kipling)
"Pilc on the young mans burden,
What matters it to him,
For he's your prey by nature.
'Gainst you his chance is slim
Be stern-be cold and heartess,
Until you've made him wild,
Then hint that ROYSTER'S CANDY
Will make you as a child.

Lead him a song and dance,
But make him pay the fiddler,
