old, has known Miss French since lie
was Il yOungStcr 1T school, and there
has always been n warm bond of af-

Tho Roads.

EDITOR REGIsTER:-W We find in
travelling over the piece of road
from Henderson to Robt. Shank's
that the County Court has been
very liberal in fixing it up. BY
examining it closely, we think
about one dollar was expended to
fix this road, when it should have
been from $75 to 500 to put it in
proper condition. The amount of
the bill presented to the Court by
the Surveyor, should not be over
81, but no doubt it will be $25 OF
more. CITIZEN.

Dany.

Elk. Sheriff Geo. p. Gardner, who
has been the Superintendent and
General Manager of the Enterprise
Dock Company, in this place for q
year OF more, on Saturday last pur-
chased the stock owned by Mr.. a.
E. Kisar, thus giving him the cons
trolling interest in this Dock Com
pany.
He informed us that the compa-
ny would be recognized at once.
1t is the intention to greatly en-
large the facilities of the Enter
prise Dock Company, SO that more
work can be turned out, and also
more expeditiously.
If the new plans are carried out,
it will give employment to many
more hands.
Mr.. Gardner is one of our most
enterprising oitizens, and one who
keeps his money at work in way
that gives large numbers of people
employment.
The Register wishes Mr.. Gard
ner great financial success in this
undertaking.
1t would be a good thing for
Point Pleasant, if other moneyed
men would follow his example.

fields.

The subscription books of the
Ladies' Home Journal are evidence
of large and increasing influx of
English-speaking people in the
Philippine Islands. Not only does
the magazine go to the homes of
American officers in our new pos
sessions, but it is read by the sol
diers in camps and on the fighting
line. In the hospitals it is in con-
slant demand, and soldier writes
from those far-off islands that the
Journals which reach his camp are
worn out before every one
has had his turn at reading. 1t
seems rather strange that maya
zine that abhcrs war and breaches
the doctrine of peace should find
suoh favor among men who pass
many of their days within hearing
of the din of the battle.

The anoients believed that rheu-
matism was the work of demon
within man. Any one who has
had an attack of sciatio or infam-
matory rheumatism will agree, that
the infiiotion is demoniao enough
to warrant the belief. 1t has never
been claimed that Chamberlain's
Pain Balm would cast out demons,
but it will cure rheumatism, and
hundreds bear testimony to the
truth of this statement. One ap-
plioation relieves the pain, and this
quick relief which it affords is
alone worth many times its cost.
