When boy turns his bulging pocket
inside out we marvel at the quantity
and variety of articles he has slowed
away. Odd lengths of string, marbles,
a horse chestnut, top, brass nails
hickory-nuts, an apple, and many more
articles are garnered by this snapper
up of unconsidered trifes. We think
the collection must be hard on boys
pocket. And it is. But do we ever
think of the variety and miscellany OF
the substances we put into the pocket OF
our stomach? There's the apple and
the nuts, and things besides quite as IN
digestible as brass nails and with no
more food value than so many marbles.
And vet we wonder that the stomach
"giyes out" When the stomach breaks
down under the strain of careless eating
and irregular meals it can be perfectly
and permanently restored to healh and
strength by the use of Doctor Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. The action
of this medicine on the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition
is so marked, that relief from disease Is
at once experienced, and the headaches,
liver troubles, kidney disorders, skin
eruptions and other symptoms OF DIS
eased stomach are quickly cured.
Whenever the use of laxative medl-
cine is indicated, use DR.. Pierce's Pleas
ant Pellets. They act in harmony with
the Discovery" and assist its action by
purging the bowels of foul accumula-
tiOns.

Thanksgiving.

We thank him who has made and
preserved us nation.
Who hid this continent from the eyes
of the world until the time of the reve-
lation had come.
Who summoned hither faithful men,
believing in God, and in men as the
children of God.
Who preserved the brave colonists
from famine, pestilence, and sword;
from internal discussions, and from
foreign foes.
Who united the hearts and minds of
the various peoples in their demand for
liberty and their declaration of indie
pendence.
Who made wise the counsels of their
counselors and strong the arm of their
defenders, and gave victory to the weak
battalions.
Who has brought to our shores the op-
pressed of other lands, and made it a
refuge, school, home for the needy
and the aspiring of all nations.
Who has given us wisdom in the past
to provide free schools and free churches
for a free people.
Who inspires in our own day clear
sighted, brave-hearted men to battle
without truce or retreat against open
violence and insidious corruption,
against the perils of popular ignorance
and the perils of concentrated wealth
Who has given to us an open Bible, a
risen Christ, a living church, and a
common faith in a righteous and re-
deeming God.
Whose protecting, guiding, inspiring
presence in the past is the ground of our
hope for our nation in the future.

for his goodness and his wonderful
works to the children of ne1l''-Out-
look.

Catarrh Cannot Be Cured.

with LOCAL APPLICATIONS as they
cannot reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is blood or constitutional dis
ease, and in order to cure it you must

Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for COM
sumption. EAT plenty Of
pork" was the advice to the
coasamptivc 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptivc needs
most.
Scott Emulsionis thcmod-
I'm method Of feeding fat to
..hc consurnptive. Pork is too
.ough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in th;a
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
Of cod liver oil and hypophoS-

Last night about 9 o'clock Mr.. S. w.
Sanders t~elephoned from his residence
All North Third street, that a tramp
was annoying the people in that vicin-
ity and was acting in a very insulting
manner.
Captain n. J. Williams went up Third
street Immediately and when he got to
Third and Grace streets he saw the
hobo enter Mr.. N. Jacobs residence,
on the northeast corner of Third and
Grace streets. He stopped by the gate
a minute and out walked the tramp
with a handsome eight day clock, under
his arm. He had boldly entered the
front door, saw no one in the sitting
room and helped himself to the time
piece.
When accosted by Captain Williams
the tramp a he got the clock from
a pawn broker. The clock was taken
back inside and only the nurse was at
home but h said the clock was Mr..
Jacobs property.
Captain Williams took the tramp and
clock down to the city hall and there
the hobo gave his name as John MUIR
ply. He was locked up and the clock
will be used as evidence against him
in h mayors court today. The
charge will be larceny and perhaps
burglary. Murphy was drinking. He
told the police that he was a sailor.

Mr.. r. C. Rivers, OF the Raleigh Base
Ball Club, who has been here a couple
Of days, returned home last night
MI. Rivers came to Wilmington to
consult with our base ball people and
induce them to organize a team n go
into the state base ball league this sea-
son. He called on abou twenty-five of
the cranks and says he found them all
anxious to see Wilmington IN the lead
again this season. He found a strong
feeling to give financial support and be-
lieves that Wilmington will decide to
get into the swim -f-
By reason of Mr.. Rivers agitation. a
meeting of all interested in base ball
has been called at the Elks' Temple
next Tuesday night at s o'clock to form
an association and select a delegate to
the state base ball league to be held at
Raleigh on mex Wednesday night for
the purpose Of forming a state organi-
cation, appointing committees on the
schedule Of games. n taking steps to
get the association or a working basis.
lit is hoped there will be a full It
tendance of our base ball people at the
meeting Tuesday night. There is to be
a circuit Of teams at Raleigh, Charlotte,
Greensboro, Durham and New Bern.
and they are anxious for Wilmington
to make the sixth team. It is proposed
to open the season May 10th and have
a schedule of games running through
four months till September 10th. The
salary limit for each team will be $3.50
instead Of from $1,000 to $500 as last
season. With economy in this connec-
ton it is believed that the teams will
pull through successfully with an ave-
rage attendance of 300 people.
Mr.. Rivers says he is confident that
Wilmington will go into the league, but
if it does not they will lave to look for
another town to make up the sixth
team. He sees no. reason why Whining
ton cannot organize an association, as
the Wilmington Street Railway Com

PORTING a team and will furnish free and
keep the Hilton grounds in order.' Mr..
Rivers says he has a letter from a we'll
known base ball manager who says he
will come here and get up a team on
a guarantee Of $500, provided we have
closed grounds. The party referred to
already has applications for positions
OIL any team he organizes n is con-
fideEt that he can get up a first class
winning team. A subscription of $3.50
in cash will. therefore. get a team on a
basis to start business.
Mr.. Rivers has spent a week in visit
ing the base ball towns, and says Raj
eigh, Charlotte, Durham, Greensboro
and New Bern are already in and are
only waiting for Wilmington to go in
and make a strong league
