How To Get Rich.

Truckers in Eastern North
Carolina this season have 1eceiv-
ed as much as sixty cents a
bunch for asparagus, A Florida
gentleman who has purchased
land near Fayetteville, will put
it in celery, and says celery will
grow in that climate in protus~
ion and of superior quality. The
trucking industry, an industry
practically unknown twenty
years ago, has come to be one of
the greatest in Eastern North
Carolina, and it is as yet not
halt developed. 1t has not only
brought wealth to some, comfort
to many. and given an upl1ft in
prosperity to those sections that
have gone largely and wisely in
to truck farming, but it has
brought into the State a desira>
BILE class of population. State
Senator Brown who established
a colony at Chadbourn, was en-
abled to interest Northern far
mers by showing the handsome
profits made in growing berries
and truck for Northern markets.
They have succeeded and
brought their friends to live in
North Carolina, and a beginning
has Just been made in develops
ment of the trucking business of
Eastern North Carolina.
North Carolina cannot get rich
except by making things to sell
to people who live in other
States. Trucking aud fishing
aie destined to make Eastern
North Carolina rich. Much Of
it is already garden, with inn
proved shipping facilities, and
land devoted to the cultivation
of cotton, which pays very little,
will be devoted to growing straw
berries and early vegetables for
market, thus giving larger res
turns for investment and labor.

4 magistrate II an adjoining

Placing the writ in the hands of
his Consta bic he waited several
days expecting the prisoner to
appear under arrest for prelIm>

Bile ten days later he inquired
after the case. The constable
SAID: "Well, when | got down

and as the doctor said he wash t

was sorry he had shot him and

The Origin of Woman.

A translation which has lust
been made by a Sanscrit work
gives the following story OF the
origin of woman:
In the beginning, when
Twashtrl (the Hindoo Vulcan)

he found that he had exhausted
his materials in making Of man
and had no solid elements lett
In this dilemma, after pro-
found INT citations, he did as fol-
lows:
He took the rotundity of the
moon, and the curver of Creep
ers, and the clinging of tendrils.

the slenderness of the reed, and
the bloom of flowers, and the
lightness of leaves and the
glances of deer. and the joyous
gayety of sunbeams, aud the
weeping of clouds, and the fck>
!eness of the winds, and the
timidity of the hare. and the
vanity of the peacock, and soft>
ness of the parrots bosom, aud
the hardness of adamant, aud
the sweetness of honey, and the
cruelty OF the tiger. and the
warm glow of fire and the cold
ness of snow, and the chat.ering
of jays-and compromising all
these together ne made woman

Not a Question of Expense,

The merchant that counts adj
vertlsing as something apart
from his legitimate business ex>
penses, is not the one likely to
make any great commercial
success.
Business success and COmmer~
clal advancement today, owe
their progress to printers ink.
For the merchant who hesi~
tates over the of advertising,
there is a chance of failure in
his business, and the merchant
who iabors day and night in his
store, without using printers ink
on the outside in liberal quantl>
ties, will hDd small retu, us for
his individual labor, unless
com bined With advertising.
Advertising does not come
under the head of 'luxuries, IN
the mercantile world, today.
1t is as necessary as first class
location, the best class OF goods
and the best of clerk help.
Advertising is not on the
question list of the merchant
doing business, for the merchant
doing business recognizes that
his advertise ment IS as necessary,
day after day, as is the opening
of his store and the inside dis
play of his goods.
So lar as the merchants OF
New Bern are concerned, the
columns Of the Journal sutflc1ent>
ly prove that they are firm be-
levers in printers ink, and ac>
cording to its use will be found
the success of the merchants
employing it in their regular
daily business.
The successful merchant IS
the one that puts advertising
first on the list of necessarles for
his business, and does not ques>
ton it's cost, or ask if he can
afford to spend the money

Chicken Picking Machine.

Many OF us have read of the
feathers all being picked off OF
towels by the action OF lorna
do. An ingenious German has
taken the hint thus furnished by
nature, it is said, to invent a
machine for picking chickens.
His patent cyclones are small In
size, but intense in their field of
action Electricity is the power
used; a button is touched which
sets fans going at the rate of
5000 revolutions a minute.
These create powerful cross
currents of air. A shanghai
rooster, for instance. is placed
in the machine, and before he
has even to make protest his
downy coat has left him forever.

The Topophone

Fogs are the great conditions
of dread for the mariner. To
avoid collisions and strands the
fog holm is sounded at intervals
and the greatest power of cleo
trio light is turned on. But the
many mishaps call for a more
nearly perfected system of sig
mails. Prof: Elisha Gray has
added the invention of the subs
marine bells. The United
States has established 3o3 fog
signals, 100 bell buoys. 73 whis-
tie buoys and a. light-vessels
with fog signals on or near our
shores. To all this Lieut.. Col.
D. P. Heap. of the engineer ser
vice, has added a very simple
but valuable invention called
the topophone. 1t is simply a
staff, to be held in the hands, on
each side of which is sound
trumpet or horn from which
sound is conveyed to the er
much as the rubber tubes fir ,m
a phonograph. The staff is held
up. Suppose the sound of a fog
horn is heard in the right ear,
the staff is turned till it is heard
in the left. The staff is turned
about till the direction is noted
accurately. BY marking the
direction and noting progress
it is comparatively easy to know
whether the vessel is passing or
heading directly for a collision.

If you want to sell list your prop
erty with the agent whom you
think will do business for you most
satisfactorily-one to whom peo-
pie come to buy-one who adver-
tises Literally, far and wide, for
customers, and treats them right
when they come, and one who will
show your property to the custom
ers.
If you want to buy, go to the
same one-he knows titles. You
want clear title.
If your property or life is not
insured you are taking chances
long ones. Most of us can't af-
ford to take them If you can't,
go to the agent who knows the in
surance business and is aresponsi-
BILE citizen. Don't fear you won't
get the lowest rates-he don't let
business get away from him by
charging more than others-that
would be ridiculous.
