The Goldsboro Methodist Sunday School
Brought a Merry Party of Bright
Boys and Girls.
The Sunday School of st. Paul Meth
odist church of Goldsboro, picnicked at
Pullen's Park yesterday. The train
pulled in about eleven o'clock with about
four hundred happy children with their
teachers, mothers and friends, and a
very happy and bright party it made.
The park rang with their merry laugh

Mayor Powell, Mr.. Young and other
Raleigh people met them at the depot
and extended them the inequalities OF
the city. After a morning spent at the
park, dinner was served under the shade
of the trees in the eastern end of the
park, after which the visitors divided
into parties and visited the various OBJ
jects of interest in the city, nearly all
of them going to the capitol and the
State Museum. AT six o'clock, after
a. delightful day, the nicnickers re-
turned to their home, with recolections
of pleasant day at the State capital

lucky star and happened there just
as dinner was being served. If | had
not known it was a Methodist crowd
the abundance of fried chicken that
loaded the tables would have made that

/ noticed one thing that made me
feel that Raleigh was not up to the
measure Of true hospitality A few
short tables had been supplied, but most
of the dinners was spread on table
cloths on the ground Now there is
no reason why there shouldn't be a
Sunday School or other picnic at Pull
len Park every week in the summer. 1t
would he good thing for Raleigh and
for the picnickers. The Park committee
ought to provide plenty of tables and
invite every Sunday School in the State
to come here and spend q day at what
is rapidly coming to be one of the most
beautiful parks to be found anywhere.
If the Park committee will act ON
this suggestion, next year it will almost
be a daily occurrence for Raleigh to
welcome bright boys and girls from the
Sunday Schools for seventy miles
around.

CHEWING COCA LEAVES.
Mysterious Powers Ascribed to tho
Plant by the Indinns.


The Indians regard the coca with ex-
trcne reverence. Won Tschndi, the Aus
trian scientist, who rI.att. u most thor
ough study OF the ancient customs of the
lucas, says: During divine worship the
priests chewcd coca leaves, and unless
they We're supplied with them it was be-
licvcd that the favor of the gods could
not be gained. 1t was also deemed nee
essary that the supplicator for divine
grace should approach the priests with
an acullico' in his mouth. Ii was believ-
ed that any business undertaken without
the bencdiction of coca leaves could not
prosper, and 10 the shrub itself worship
was rendered. During an interval ofmore
than 300 years Christianity has not been
able To subdnc this deep rooted ilolatry,
for everywhere we find traces of belief in
the mysterious powers of this plant.
The excavators in the mines OF Cerro
del Pasco throw chcwcd coca upon the
hard veins of metal in the belief that it
softeus the ore and renders it more easy
to work. The Indians even at tile present
time put coca leaves in the mouths Of
dead persons in order to secure them a
favorable reception on their entr'lnce in
to another world. and when Peruvian

THE HEALTH HABIT

Just us Easy to Form as Any other.
We do not deliberately form our pet
habits, but they are unconsciously ac-
I CURED and grow as we grow, and by
the time we learn they are hurting us
we find them too strong to be easily
broken.
Then why not form good habit, a
habit which will counteract the many
bad ones-in other words, contract the
questionable habit of always being
we'll?
The best health habit to get into is to
have and keep vigorous stomach; if
you have a healthy digestion you can
drink your beloved coffee smoke your
favorite brand of tobacco With little or
no harm; the mischief begins when
these things are forced upon the faith
full stomach without any assistance.
Form the habit of taking after meals
some harmless but efficient digestive
which will relieve the stomach of so
much extra work
Nature furnishes us with such diges-
tives and when they are combined in
such pleasant preparation as Stuart S
Dyspepsia Tablets they give the over
worked stomach just the necessary as
sistance to secure perfect digestion
without any of the harmful effects of
cathartics and similar drugs.
The habit of taking Sturat's Dyspep-

to the weak stomach as food itself, and
indeed, to get the benefit from food
eaten nothing better and certainly
nothing safer can be used.
