Mr.. Rolling Settling Appointments.
washington Post. }


Mr.. Thomas E. Rollins, of North Caro-
lima, son-in-law of Judge Pritchard. of
the Supreme Court of the District of
Columbia, who succeeded Judge Pritchar6
as the Republican leader of his State
when the latter was appointed to his
present position, is in the city settling a
number of North Carolina appointments
He is at the Ebbitt House. Mr.. Rollins
is State chairman of North Carolina, and
one of the youngest men holding a similar
position in the country.
There are number of appointments to
be taken up in the State in the near fu-
ture," Mr.. Rollins said last night. THE
most important of these is the Whining
ton postmastership. The place is at pres
ent held by a woman, Miss Darby. Her
term of office will expire in October, and
we expect that a Republican worker will
be appointed in her place. Wilmington is
the largest city in the State, and the par
ty believes that such an important posi-
ton should be given to a man who can
and has done important work for the par
ty. Mr.. Thomas Wallace the present as
sistant postmaster, will probably receive
the position. No fault has been found
with the work of Miss Darby, but she was
appointed at the request of former Gov.
Russell when he went out of office, and
it seems to be the understanding that one
term is enough for her.

How to Tell Good Farmers.

are the ones who do not farm, and you
can generally get more free advice about

acre but the public never knew how much
profit. if any, he realized. But he got "a

to give him credit for being scientific

knowledge of successful farming go to the
man who farms exclusively and feeds,
clothes and educates his family from the

YOU some valuable pointers on ever de-

There is a big difference between farm

last address a large number of teachers
declared it their purpose to agitate the
question and to urge the establishment
of these libraries in the schools in which
they are teaching. 1t is impossible to
get an epitome of the addresses as they
were entirely extemporaneous. However,
we have secured a synopsis of the sub
ject from superintendent Ragsdale and
he has promised to write out more fully
when he has time, in brief, the line of ar
gument pursued. He, along with the State
Superintendent, regards the rural library
question as one of vital Importance In the
development of our school system along
vigorous and healthful lines.
His subject was divided as follows:
l. The necessity for the library. This
is shown by knowing: (a) What are the
conditions surrounding the schools? OBJ
What means are now being employed to
better these conditions? (c) Ought some
thing to be done? (d) What will the Lib
rary do towards relieving the situation?
2.-How can we get Libraries? (a) BY
creating public sentiment for them.
This may be done by agitation. ID By
County Boards of Education; 2. BY Coun-
ty Superintendent; 3. By teachers; OBJ by
securing the interest of the children; (c)
by getting parents interested.
Slow shall we use these Libraries?
(a) AS companions for the children; OBJ
To cultivate the habit of reading; (c) to
enable the child to grow up in touch with
the best thought and literature I'D To
broaden the thought and culture of the
entire community.
4.-What results may be expected from
their proper use? la Increased interest IN
the schools; (b) more hearty support OF,
and sympathy with the teacher and his
work; (c) Higher ideals of life and duty
Cd Broader and more liberal views of
things and of life; (c) General elevation of
the entire moral atmosphere of the com
munity.

A Sustaining Diet.

These are the enervating days, when,
as somebody has said, men drop by the
sunstroke as if the day of fire had dawn
ed. They are fraught with danger to
people whose systems are poorly Sustain

the full effect of Hoods Sarsaparila is
such as to suggest the propriety of call
ing this medicine something besides a
blood purifier and tonic, say, a sustain
ing diet. 1t makes it much easier to
bear the heat, assures refreshing sleep,
and will without any doubt avert much
sickness at this time of year
