having practiced medicine unlawfully,

would not permit regular physician

case the court discharged the defen-
dants, taking the ground that praying
was not practiclns medicine. He said
tEat the defendants had not attempted
to deceive anyone, and had not claimed
to be doctors or to be qualified as such.
The court further stated, however that
the question of the soundness of the
religious belief was not at issue, and
he did not want to be understood as
passing on that.

Mr.. Robert N. simms, of Wake, yester-

bill to appropriate $3.50 900 to the public

But-where is the money coming from
The answer 10 that question is easy:
increase the State revenues. How? BY

that would be more effective; imposing a

companies; increase the corporation tax ;

INSTRUMENT OF INJUSTICE.

Hon. Richmond Pearson, of the North
Carolinas delegation, made speech on
the -apportionment bill in Congress
which contained at least one sentiment
that viii be generally applauded. He
said.
Whatever the fourteenth amendment
may be called, whether it be called a
blunder or, as some of you gentlemen
would say crime, it has failed of its
purpose 1t has strengthened
the hands it intended to curb, and Grip
pied the creatures it intended to aid. The
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, in
stead of being muniments of right, have
been converted into instruments of injus-
tee.
Mr.. Pearson is correct in saying that
these amendments have failed of their
purpose, but he is mistaken in supposing
that these amendments were adopted to
aid the negroes. They were adopted he
cause it was. thought they would give the
Republicans long and perfect control OF

Paines celery compound. AS a great
leader and writer in Boston publicly de-
clared one day, Paine's celery compound
had proven itself to be as much better
than all the ordinary nervines. sarsa-
parllas, and trade preparations as the
diamond is brighter than ordinary glass.
From thousands of grateful persons I'M
solicited testimonials began to pour in
from those whom Paine's celery compound
had benefited. The wealthy and the poor,
the famous and the comparatively I'M
known, sent to the proprietors of the
remedy to the newspapers, to their ply

that here at last they had found remedy
that made them themselves again!
And the foolish fellows with their silly
nostrums, starting up here and there
every year. discovered as often as they
tried it that, when a persons health is
at stake, he or she will not be imposed
upon. ,Paine's celery compound was in
greater demand last year than the year
before; the demand this spring is greater
than for all the so-called spring remedies
combined. People insist upon having the
one remedy that does them good, makes
them strong, repairs their shattered
strength. They call for Paine's celery
compound!

The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1901-01-12

When the greatest of modern physicians
after years Of practice and close, scientific
study, gave to the science of medicine the
most wonderful remedy of the present
day, a host of imitators sprung up.
No sooner was it announced that q
positive cure for nervous ailments, an un-
failing blood purifier had been discover
ed by Prof. Phelps, of Dartmouth, and
Celery Compound as the most-to- be- de-
sired discovery of a time when modern
ways of working and living had begun
to multiply diseases that arise from inn
paired nerves and impure blood.
When great public demand arose for
this remedy from one end of the country
to another, at once, as in every such case,
lot of cheap fellows began to try to i'm
pose upon people one and anG&her trade
medicine, sometimes harmful, always
worthless, claiming for them the unex-
ampled properties of Paine's celery COM

Naturally, none of them ever succeed

all nervous diseases and kidney troubles.
For all such complaints Paine's celery

where everything else has failed.
1t is as harmless as it is good, and it
was the universal advice OF the medical
profession that the compound be placed
where the general public could secure 1t,

THE GOVERNORS SALARY.

The Senate did well yesterday in pass
ing the bill to increase the Governor S
salary, and it is quite certain the bill
will pass the House today by large ma
jority. This paper is not an advocate of
big salaries, but the Governor of great
State like North Carolina ought to have
a larger salary than has heretofore been
paid. The increase is moderate and will
be approved. IT ought to be $1,000

instead of $4,000. If the House concurs. the
increase will become operative at once.
