The crying evil in North Carolina in

course that entry is proper judgment

many people are permitted to escape on

Paine's Celery
Compound
Permanently Cures All The
Varied Forms of
Rheumatism.
It Prriies the Blood and Re-
moves Every Trace of
Poisonous Acid.
The Great Medicine Has Cured More
Rheumatic Sufferers Than ALI
Other Combined Remedies.

Sufferers from the varied forms of
umatism-articular. muscular, infam-
matory, lumbago and govt, should bear
in mind that there is a morbid principle
in the blood when rheumatism is present.
This morbid principle is uric acid, which
circulates with the blood and acts upon
the Joints and muscles, causing the pains
and agonies of rheumatism. Paine's
Celery Compound is the only scientific
remedy for the permanent Punishment
of every form of rheumatism. If your
joints are painful; if the knees, wrists,
elbows. or ankles are swollen, a few
bottles of Paine's Celery Compound will
soon remove all your troubles and pains.
If you have infammatory or sciatic
rheumatism accompanied with fever,
acute darting pains in the sciatic nerve
from the hip down the leg, Paine S
Celery Compound taken at once will
soon drive out the disease, and make you
strong and active.
At this particular time when rheuma-
tism frequently lays the foundation for
other incurable and grave troubles, we
specially urge the honest use of at least
one bottle of DR.. Phelps life giving
medicine, Paine's Celery Compound. No
case is too complicated Or difficult for
this king of medicines. Thousands OF
happy and grateful men and women sing
it's praises and continually recommend
it. 1t is the only medicine that can
rescue people from agony and death after
| physicians pronounce them incurahle
Mrs. Louisa Rix, Wesley, Iowa, says:
Some time ago my husband was taker
down with infiammatory rheumatism, sc
that he was unable to get out of bee
alone or to dress himself. We employed
| good doctors and used many kinds o.
| medicines but with no relief. We finally
sent for bottle of Paines Celery Com
pound, and before he had finished it, he
was able to be at work. Another bottle
! entirely cured him."

BIG TOBACCO MARKET.

Raleigh is sure to become one OF the
Two new warehouses will handle the big
crop which Wake county farmers have
planted and before another season there
will be demand for new warehouses if
the business at all measures UP to
reasonable expectations.
The fact that the Imeprial Tobacco
Company, with a capital of sixty mil
lion dollars, makes Raleigh it's head
quarters is an event of deep import to
the tobacco interests of Raleigh This
city is in the centre of the bright to-
bacco producing section of the State,
reaching from Rockingham on the west
to Beaufort on the east, and from War
I1enton on the north to Fayetteville on
the South. The outlook now is that the
two giant tobacco companies the Ameri
can and Imperial, will insure competi-
ton for bright tobacco, and if 50 the
farmers will receive fair prices for the
weed. Durham, of course, is the head
quarters in North Carolina for the Am
erican and Raleigh for the Imperial.
Ard may the competition mean better
prices for the tobacco growers and bet
ter conditions for the entire tobacco in
terests of North Carolina.
That rich and powerful organiza-
ticn, the Imperial Tobacco Company of
Great Britain and Ireland, is a strong,
determined and active competitor OF the
American company. 1t comes boldly
| into North Carolina, the home of bright
| tobacco culture, and announces that its
general State headquarters viii be at
! Raleigh. This will be pleasing news to
the tobacco farmers of the State, and
the fact that the American managers
Raleigh the North Carolina headquart-
ers Will be most gratifying news to all
our citizens and to those tobacco plant
ers tributary to the capital city, who
will sell their tobacco on the Raleigh
market hereafter
We welcome our Anglo-Irish friends
to Raleigh and we think that we can
promise them not only every facility for
the general conduct of their extensive
business, but also one of the largest
and Invest tobacco markets in the
State. 1t is universally admitted that
the tobacco grown in the tobacco belt OF
Wake ard adjoining counties has no
supe rior and few equals for either ex-
port or domestic use. The city oil
Raleigh is its legitimate place of ex-
change, and with well managed ware
houses and other facilities, all of which
are being provided, the Raleigh marker
will be equal TO any in the State.
We rejoice at the advent of the I'M
perial Company into our midst and oul
gates are wide ocen to others who de.
sire to bring any grades of leaf, or t.
manufacture the same into any of the
finished products.

Manteo, N. c., April 1S.-There has

and oystermen of Pamlico Sound because
of the violation by the oystermen of the
law prohibiting the use of scoops, scrapes
and nets north of line drawn from Wild
Boar Creek to Gull Shoals from the first
of February to the fifteenth of April.
The object of the law is to prevent the
tearing of many shad nets set here. The

of the grounds. The Governor and the
Chief Inspector have been appealed to
by the fishermen, and several arrests
