Midsummer SufieringS
Paine'S Celery
Compound
Quickly Dissipates Tired Feel
ings and Gives New Life
to the Weak, Nervous
and Debilltated.

Tired, languid and respondent feelings
prevail to an alarming extent during the
heated term of summer. Such feelings
indicate depleted blood and feeble con-
dition of the nervous system.
This is Just the time when Paine's
Celery Compound is needed to build up
flesh and muscle, brace the nerves and
clear and strengthen the brain.
Sick headaches, nervous prostration
sleeplessness and a general feeling of
mental and physical depression by which
life is made almost intolerable in the
hot weather, can all be speedily Danish
ed by the use of bottle or two Of
Paine's Celery Compound, natures sum-
mer renovator and strength-giver.
Paines Celery Compound never fails
to repair the wasted and wornout tissues;
it Gains and perfectly regulates nervous
action and brings that sweet and rest
full sleep that makes life happy
The medicine that in the past has done
such marvellous things for others, is the
kind you should use at this time.

a NEW DEGREE NEEDED.

Harpers Weekly has been making a
study of the sort of men who were given
honorary degrees in this country at the
recent college commandments. The de-
gree of LII. D.-learned doctor of laws
was conferred upon several men who had
been lucky enough to be elected Gov
ernor, youthful professor of theology
two philanthropists, several mining ex-
Each in his line had won high place and
deserved distinction, let us suppose
Though such is not always the case)
but why make mining expert or mill
lionaire a Learned Doctor of Laws? He
is, perhaps, more useful citizen than a
learned doctor of laws, but nine times out
of ten such a degree is so absurd as to
make the recipient the object of annoy
ing criticism. There ought to be some
degree, il such distinction is desirable,
that could be conferred on men who are
the top of the pot in their line that
would not be an anachronism
The King of England has recently
created a new order, called the Order
of Merit, which is given to men who
have achieved prominence in political,
professional business and philanthropic
walks of life. Harper's Weekly thinks
Doctors of Achievement would be good
title for men who do conspicuous deeds,
whose attachments do not make the de-
gree of Ii. D., appropriate. There are
men in North Carolina whose conspicu-
Gus service entitle them to distinction,
but who are not classical scholars. The
late Dennis Simmons and Mr.. Washing
ton Duke are conspicuous examples of
this class of men. Let us call them
Doctors of Achievement, and give them a
place in the Order of Merit.

WILLIAMS HOLTON CASE.
Motion by Williams Lawyers to ouash the
Bill of Indictment.
Especial to News and Observer

Winston Salem, N. c., July 25.-The
Williams Holton cow-hiding case was
called in the Superior Court this after
noon. Counsel for the defense made a
motion to continue the hearing until
next term of court on account of not
having all the witnesses. This was over
ruled by Judge Shaw. A motion was
then made by Mr.. Williams lawyers to
quash the bill of indictment on the
ground that it was defective, by reason
of two members of the grand jury, having
cases now pending in court. Judge Shaw
asked for time to consult authorities on
the question. He will probably render
a decision tomorrow morning.

A TRAITOR: NOT A MARTYR.

Wadesboro Messenger and Intelligencer
The Charlotte Observer, in condoline
with Senator McLaurin, of South Caro-
lima, over the fact that he has been
repudiated by his own people, uses this
language:
Every new cause, it is said, must
have its martyr. and it should be some
comfort to Senator McLaurin in his re-
tirement to know that he is one of the
first sacrifices, and the most conspicu-
Gus, in the cause of larger liberty in
the South"
Senator McLaurin may be martyr III
the eyes of the Observer, but we hope
the day will never come when any il
the South, except those who are political
apostates themselves, will have the
hardihood to laud traitors as yicarious
sufferers in the cause of liberty.

TALKING ABOUT McLAURIN.


Danville Register.
We can't think much of a man who
calls himself a Democrat and was sert
to the Senate as a Democrat, who has
somehow managed to place a Republi
can administration under such everlast-
ing obligations to- him that it seems to
feel that it cannot sufficiently reward
him for his useful cooperation. The
strenuous efforts of these friends in his
behalf and their outspoken indignatio
now that he has been practically forced,
as they say, to decline place which
had been provided for him, is what hurts
the Senator in our estimation more than
anything he ever did. for he never i'm
pressed us as a man that was likely to
set the world afire if left to his own re-
sources. This last act of his is an evil
dence of weakness at some point in his
makeup.

The Republican Congressional Com
mittee gives it out that they will de-
pend more this year on orators than
literature. They feel their weakness in
the logic of the cold type, and they want
spell binders to "whoop up" the flag and
call everybody traitors who do not ap-
prove the cruelty in the Philippines and
socialists who do not approve tru:t
robbery.

WOMAN'S GREAT WORK FOR
THE SCHOOLS.

The educational campaign is going to
result in the adoption of the local tax
in many school districts and in the pet
torment of public schools in all portions
of the State. The people are awake and
are ifs touch in most counties with the
agencies that are working for local tax
in many districts. The effective work
being done by Governor Aycock, Super
intendent Joyner, DR.. McIver and others
is already bearing fruit.
The organization by many of the first
women of the State of an association
to improve the public school houses is
in line with the educational campaign
that is being waged. 1t is peculiarly the
work of the women and they have entered
upon it with zeal and we'll directed en-
thusiasm. Every progressive woman in
the State ought to belong to the asso-
citation. A late issue of the Youth s
Companion says of the work:
Associations of women in towns and
cities for the Improvement of the schools
are common, and they have done much
to make school life more attractive. 1t
has remained for the women of NORTH
CAROLINA to organize a State asSocia-
ton for the betterment of the school
houses, and to plan a campaign in which
the importance of attractive school build
ings is to be set forth to the parents
in every county in the State and in
icfy in nfu
"a committee of women has been ap-
pointed to distribute literature bearing
on the subject, and to exhibit pictures
showing that unattractive school grounds
may be made pleasant and picturesque
by planting trees, flowers and shrub
berry, and how the barren walls of the
school-room may be adorned with in
expensive pictures.
Southern women are noted for their
ability to bring things to pass.-as, in
deed, all women are.-so North Caro-
lima ought to be noted in a few years
for the charm of the rural schoof grounds
and schoolhouses.
1T is in the South that one would eX-
pect the movement for more attractive
schoolhouses to be popular, for the per-
centage of native born Americans there
is larger than in any other section of
the country. But interest in the subject
is not confined to the South; in the North
and West and East also there are thou
sands of pleasant schools, the pride of
the neghborhood which supports them.
THE interest which the mothers have
taken in the matter is largely respon-
sibie for the adornment of the barren
structures that were thought good
enough a generation or two ago, or for
their displacement by commodious build
ings tastefully decorated and fitted with
modern sanitary appliances -

The new ruling will apply to all en-

that employees are not familiar with, or
