Germans to fully appreciate this

recent translation, German writer
say 1.-The apple is such common
frnlt that few persons are familiar
with its remarkable ctlicacious medi-
clnal properties. Everybody ought
to know that the very best thing one
can do is to eat apples Just before
going to bed.
The apple Is excellent brain food,
because it has more phosphoric acid
in an easily digestible shape than
any other fruit known. 1t excites
tho action of tho liver, promotes
sound and hcalthly, and thoroughly
d;sinfccts the mouth. 1t also aggluti-
mates the surplus acid Of the stomach,

Imitators do not advertise their formula

THE GAS PLANT IMPROVED.
The Use of Gas For Cooking Purposes is Be-
coming Popular and Economical.

The Raleigh Gas Company has spent
q very large sum of money in Raleigh
TO equip its plant. The work has been
cone under the supervision of Mr..
Linton, one of the best gas men in
the country. He has done his work
and the city authorities
ave voluntarily complimented him
Upon the excellent manner in which
the work has been done on the streets.
The enlargement and betterment of
the plant enables the company to give
The best and most economical service
for lights and fuel ever offered before
in Raleigh. The price of the gas has
| cen reduced to a point where it can
lie used for fuel in competition with
wood or coal. In all cities gas stoves
are used for light housekeeping, they
are better and more economical.
In the advertising column of todays
aper appears a new schedule of
lrices. All citizens who are interested
!; re invited to call at the office of the
company and see the cooking stoves,
] eaters, lighters, ETC., in operation.
