Why Not a Knitting MilIP

Let's move for a knitting mill in
Henderson. We need such an enter
prise to give employment to class
OF white labor for whom there is at
present no avenue of industrial self
help open. That knitting mill
would pay we do not question and so
it is not necessary to argue the point
of large dividends in it's favor. The
success of the cotton mill should be
an incentive to the building Of knit
ting mill here as sort Of secondary
or companion enterprise.

A Pointer for Farmers.

Talking with prominent guano
dealer the other day as to the sale of
fertilizers this season, he said the
farmers were buying fully as much
as they ought to. He has not sold as
much as last year to this time but
last year was a record breaker, more
fertilizers being sold than ever before.
The sales this spring he thought
would be an average. His business
was to sell fertilizers, he continued,
but he did not think farmers as rule
depended rs much upon the res ources
of the farm, that is raise as much
manure at home, as they should. And
that man is a farmer himself.

Cotton Mill to be Enlarged Again.
The stockholders of the Henderson
cotton mill have voted to make a
third addition and increase the capac-
ity OF the mill. Only few months
ago quite extensive additions in the
size of the factory building and the
quantity of machinery were made
and now still further improvement
along that line has been decided upon.
This argues well for the success of
the cotton mill. The new extension
will make the mill fraction over
400 feet in length, independent of a
40 foot Office.

THE BISHOP WIINS|A Stray Item Of News
CuIled From an Exchange in
lockport.

He is good, honest, hardworking,
skilled mechanic. Whether plumbing
house without the eye of the arch
itect watching him, setting valves in
played out taps or fitting new ones in
position, Mr.. T. W. Mulligan, plumber,
Of No. s Opera House, Lockport. y. Y.
finishes his work in a mastery man
ner, and the reader must acknowledge
this is rare amongst the plumbing fra
ternity. Our representative found him
bending over the lead pipe OF q sink
trap. Often as he Strengthened up and
pressed his hands into the small of his
back he ominously shook mis- head, for
his back ached and he suffered like
nearly every plumber in our Republic
Our representative quietly remarked,
why don't you use Doan's Backache
Kidney Pills" Well replied Mr.
Mulligan, Il have noticed a score of ad-
vertisements about this remedy in our
local papers, but | thought they were
like every other specific which I had
tried Try them and see,' our rep
resentative suggested. IF they do not
do you any good, they won't do you any
harm" Some three weeks afterwards
a second visit was made to Mr.. Multi
gan, when the following particulars
were given by him for publication:
about a year ago my back began
troubling me. 1t was very lame and /
mad aching across my kidneys. There
was a steady grinding pain all the
time when | was on my feet If I was
bending or STOPPING it hurt me when
attempted to regain an upright posi-
ton. | used to be very stiff in the
morning. Reading about Doan's Back
ache Kidney Pills L procured a box at
a drug store. They promptly and pos
itively cured me. My mother had also
suffered from a fall which injured her
| hip and caused backache. I had her
| try Doan's Backache Kidney Pills and
she was quickly relieved. They also
helped her rheumatism. We can con-
| scientiously recommend Doan's Back
ache Kidney Pills for any trouble of
the kidneys or bladder
