A Mothers Gratitude
MANI a Mother in Raleigh

Many a strong man and many a healthy
woman has much for which to thank
mother. The care taken during their
childhood brought them past the danger
point and made them healthy man and
woman. Children are generally bothered
at some period with incontinence OF
urine, and inability to retain it is often
called a habit. 1t is not the children's
fault-the difficulty lies with the kidneys.

the proper way. A Raleigh mother
shows you how:
Mrs. A. C. Howell, of 215 E. Davie
street, says: "My little boy suffered E I'm

those organs were thick and he always
complained of being unable to retain it,

A GREAT CROP WEEK.
Marked Improvement Over
the Entire State.
II This Weather Continues the Backward Con-
dilion Of Most Crops May bs Largely
Overcome.

The Weekly Crop Bulletin of the North
Carolina Section of the Climate and Crop
Service issued by the Weather Bureau for
the week ending Monday, July 6, 1908,
says:
'The weather during the past week was
extremely favorable both for the rapid
growth of crops and for the advancement
Of farm work; many correspondents state
that conditions were the most beneficial
experienced so far this season. The week
was characterized by continuous sushine,
great warmth. and a general absence of
precipitation until near the close of the
week. when very light showers occurred
at many places which were beneficial. The
mean temperature for the State was so
degrees, or about degrees above the
normal; the week was. in fact, the first
with temperatures above the normal since
the latter part of May. Maximum tenn
peratures above 80 degrees occurred nearly
everywhere on every day of the week.
Under favorable conditions or work, much
grass and many weeds were killed plow-
ing progressed well, and in most see
tions crops were placed in an excellent
state of cultivation. The two circum-
stances-good warm growing weather, and
excellent filth, caused marked improve
ment in crops generally, and perhaps with
a continuation of favorable weather the
very backward condition of most crops
may yet be largely overcome
Cotton improved considerably, and has
now begun to grow rapidly; lice are still
reported in places. but most of them have
disappeared; while still grassy in several
counties, the work of placing the crop in
good cultivation is advancing fayorably
cotton blooms are reported in several
southern counties-Brunswick, Columbus.
Scotland, Arson and also Edgecombe.
Corn looks very green and thrifty; laying
by has nearly been completed in the east,
while much of the crop is being laid by
rather small in the west; forward corn is
coming into silk and tassel Tobacco has
also improved, but late set appears to be
better than that planted early, as it IS
not buttoning so low; tobacco will be
late, but is beginning to ripen more rap
idly; cutting and curing continue on
moderate scale in the east. Sweet pota-
toes, peanuts and gardens are doing well.
The prospects for rice are promising

Zoramb0's Statement.

Victor Iorambo, who was convicted
Of murder in the second degree and SEN
fenced to twenty years in the Eastern
penitentidly for the part he played in
the Anthony Sennek murder, made a
statement to County Detective Jones
and District Attorney Jones, The con-
fession varies little from what he said
on the stand, with the exception that he
admits now that he was present when
SenneS Was struck the blow that killed
him. This blow, according to Zorambo,
was struck by Lenouskey, who is now
in jail awaiting sentence, having been
convicted Of murder in the first degree
The district attorney does not place
much faith in Zorambos confession, it
being his opinion that Lenouskey lured
Sennek to the scene of the crime, but
that the blow was struck by Zorambo,
who was in hiding waiting for Lenou-
skey to appear with the victim.
