II had a severe attack of bilious collie,
got bottle Of Chamherlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrh9a Remedy, took
two doses and was entirely cured"
says Rev. A. A. Power, of Emporia,
Kan. "My neighbor across the street
was sick for over week, had two or
three bottles of medicine from the
doctor. He used them for three or four
days without relief, then called in an
other doctor who treated him for some
days and gave him no relief, 0 dis
charged him. l went over to see him
the next morning. He said his bowels
we're in terrible fix, that they had
been running off so long that it was
almost bloody tlux. | asked him if he
had tried Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrh9a Remedy and he said,
No. l went home and brought him
my bottle and gave him one dose; told
him to take another dose in fifteen or
twenty minutes if he did not find re-
lief, but he took no more and was en-
tirely cured. l think it the best medi-
cine l have ever tried" For sale by

David Evans attended corn binder
contest on the farm of j. X. Hovden,
near Ridgeway. The contest had been
arranged between the Deering and
Mccormick machines but the Deering
Company, the day before the day set,
declined to allow their machine to
enter a field contest, so the Mccormick
gave an exhibition, which the Ridge
aray Record pronounces as fine, the
machine running easily, doing the
work required thoroughly, with no
waste or dropping of ears, and cutting
and binding corn broken down SO it
laid flat on the ground. OF course b.
R. Evans, local Mccormick agent, was
pleased at the result.
Last summer some forty threshers

and it was decided not to employ any
machine belonging to member of
the county union, it being assumed
that it was the object Of the union to
raise the rate. We are not informed
as to the intention of the union, but
understand that no raise had yet been
made AS n result of the move on thc

FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

In an article contributed to a lead.
ing religious journal of Tennessee
by Rev. DIR. N. H. D. Wilson, there
are some facts regarding North Caro-.
linians that we as a people may
study with profit. DR.. Wilson says:
THE Old North State owes much
of her reputation as the Rip Van
Wrinkle State to the want or CO opef-.
ative activity among her people.
They are and have always been a
strong, resOlute, independent people,
who attended strictly-tOo strictly
to their own business. When they
go away from home, where there is
a spirit of cooperation, they become
leaders of organized power. But at
home we have failed to accomplish
large results because of this lndl
vidual independence. On CONNER
cial lines d change is slowly taking
place, and there is some sign OF I'M.
prOvement in other lines but even
yet it is extremely hard to secure
organization and cooperation. We
find this a drawback in our Church
and Conference work. 1t has proved
almost fatal to historical and literary
effort. May a better day dawn soon!
But may no days dawn ever weaken
the independence of character and
the frmness of purpose of the TAI
HE'LL Only let him learn the WIS
dom of united effort"
