While 'willful waste makes woeful
want" the extreme of excessive boarding
is nearly as bad. The habit of saving is so
strong among certain housekeepers that
their attics and closets are filled with use
less rubbish. A peep recently into one Of
these spacious old garrets revealed mis-
cellaneous collection of broken chairs, OLD
lamps odd numbers of magazines and
newspapers worn-Out Shoes rusty knives

spects the mistress of the house was a
model housekeeper. The articles enuEer-
ated. with scores of others equally value
less, had been put away with the vague
feeling that sometime they might be turned
to account for somebody. II is quite an art
TO know what 10 give away, well as
what 10 reserve for future use. Frequent
overhauling of closets and drawers for the
purpose of wedding out superfluities is bet
ter than TO leave the accumulation until

HOPEFUL VIEW

The hopeful view consump-
tives take of their own cases is
strongly in their favor. Each
year is showing a larger per-
centage of cures.
One of the best reasons for
good hope is the record of
SCOTS Emulsion as a medicine
for consumptives. SO long as
the,system is strong enough to
use medicine of any kind it can
use SCOTS Emulsion.
The reason for its helpful
ness in this disease is because
of its long tolerance by the
patient; one does not tire of
it as quickly as other medi-
cines and that is where the
great benefit comes.

A Department of Dental Surgery.

To the Editor: The board of trustees
of the State University in establishing a
medical college acted wisely and properly
in my opinion; a, progressive step which
will be great benefit to the medical
student pecuniarily and in other respects,
and add strength to the medical profess
sion in the State.
1t seems TO me that all good citizens
will commend them for this forward
move in the interest of the State and hu-
manity.
Now, as one who loves his State and
profession, / hopefully ask the honor
able board of trustees to extend further
the benefits TO humanity. strengthen and
encourage another fraternity whose aims
are akin to the one you have given
strength and support, and create in con-
nection with the medical university a
department for the speciality of dental
surgery.
Let it not be said that the great State
of North Carolina, with its great univer-
sity can give certificate of. proficiency
to students in any profession except the
speciality of dental surgery. Nearly
every State IN the Union teaches dental
surgery Independently or in connection
with its State university, and we hope
that the State University will take this
branch of the healing science and art
under it's care. and not eventually force
the dental profession to stand alone in
teaching dentistry TO the young men of
the State.
For North Carolina must have a dem
tai Department sometime in the future.

with other States.
Education is one of our highest aims
now in the State of North Carolina, ard
let us not forget any class or profession.
do hope to see a Dental Department
in connection with the Medical Depart
ment of the University.
This is not written in the spirit of die
tating to the board of trustees of the

of my State and profession at heart, and
with the hope that the Honorable board
of Trustees may take the matter under
consideration.

THE CAR SHORTAGE
Major Kenly Returns From the Conference at
Columbia.
Especial to News and observer.)

Especial to News and observer
Wilmington, n. c., an. 23-Mr. Jno
r. kenly, General Manager of the AT
lantic Coast Line. is back from Column
bia, where he held an important confer
ence with the South Carolina Railroad
Commissioners and number of lumber
mill men relative to the shortage OF
cars this year on all railroad lines.
The lumber men claim that as they are
charged demurrage on cars when they
are not loaded in the prescribed time,
the railroads should become responsible
for losses when they make requisition
for cars and cannot get them. The roads
have had to meet abnormal demands for
cars of late and it was so clearly set
forth at the conference that compro-
mise was effected.
He also said that during September,
1901, it required four times as many cars
to handle the cotton shipped via the At
lantic Coast Line as it did for both the
months of September and October the
preceding year, and in October last in
the one month alone, ~1ore cotton was
hauled than in all the other months of
the two years prec> eding combined.
Many causes were assigned for the
scarcity of cars by he several
railroads represented at the conference

ing stated that there are over 800 cars In

THE TAX On LIQUOR
Legality of the Revenue Act
Clause Questioned.
Col. Staples Contends That the Legislature
Cannot Tax Contracts Made Without
the State
Especial to News and Observer

Greensboro, ~ c., Jan. 23.--At the re-
the State, Col. John M. Staples. of the
Greensboro bar, has given an opinion on
the construction of what is a taxable
purchase under the clause in the reve-
rue act imposing on liquor dealers 2 per
cent. on the total amount of all pur-
chases made in or out of the state
Col. Staples contends that it is not COM
petent for the Legislature to tax con-
tracts made without the State, as it
would impair the obligations of con-
tract and be an infringement on inter-
state traffic or trade, both of which are
prohibited by the Constitution of the
United States, and that purchases made
in Kentucky, Maryland or other States,
where the contract is complete, are
such transactions without the iurisdic-
ton of North Carolina as to remove
them from the taxing power of the State.
He is further of the opinion that in
the purchase of liquor so much of the
price as is revenue tax to the gov
eminent Is not, in contemplation Of law
taxable purchase and does not come
within the true meaning of a purcha Sc,
and should not be taxed. but that the
price paid for the liquor. less the gov
eminent tax, is the purchase price sub
ject to taxation, provided the contract
is made in this State. Col. Staples argues
that any other rule would be a tax upon
q. tax, the State taxing revenues re-
quired to be paid to the government be-
fore the article purchased becomes mar
ketable.
TIL construction contended for by Col.
Staples would result in saving to the
liquor dealers thousands of dollars and
practically relieve them of the purchase

last Legislature.
