BABy'S FUTURE
Something for Mothers
to Think About
Lives of Suffering and
Sorrow kVerted
And Happiness and Prosperity
Assured by
CutiCura Soap, OintmentandPills
When All Else Fails.

Every child born into the world with
an inherited or early developed ten
dency to distressing, disfguring hui
mours of the skin, scalp and blood,
becomes an object OF the most tender
solicitude, not only because of its suffer-
ing, but because of the dreadful fear
that the designation is to be lifelong
and mar its future happiness and pros
perity. Hence, it becomes the duty Of
mothers of such afflicted children to &C.
quaint themselves with the best, the
purest and most effective treatment
available, viz, The Cuticura Treatment.
Warm baths with Cuticura Soap, to
cleanse the skin and scalp of crusts and
scales, gentle applications of Cuticura
Ointment, to allay itching, irritation
and Inflammation, and Soothe and heal,
and mild doses of Cuticura Resolvent, to
cool the blood in the severer cases, are
all that can be desired for the speedy
relief and permanent cure of skin tor
turcd infants and children, and the COM
fort of WORKOUT parents.
Millions of women use Cuticura Soap,
assisted by Cutlcura Ointment, for pre-
serving, purifying and identifying the
skin, scalp, hair and hands, for annoy
ing irritations and weaknesses, and
FOR many sanative, antiseptic purposes
which readily suggest themselves.

THE RIGHT COURSE.

A private letter to gentleman in Raj
eigh from Mr.. w. A. Stewart, former rep
resentative from Harnett county, states
that the people of that county are de-
termined to enforce the Watts act in
that county. The first arrest under that
act has been made in Harnett county and
the violatOrs have been bound over to
the August term of the Superior court
The people of Harnett, the members of
the bar as well as of all other callings,
are determined that the temperance legis
lation shall not be defied They bave ar
rested the first violators, they will see
that they are punished, and they will
stand united to see that justice is melted
out to all other violators OF the law.
We call the attention of the people
and the public officials of Yadkn county
to the Harnett action and commend it to
their emulation. 1t is reported that GER
tain distillers in that county, with official
sanction, will continue their stills in
violation of the Watts act. 1t behooves the
law-abiding people of that county, who
wish to save their sons from the tempta-
ton of hell-kettles, to be up and doing
and compel their public officials to en-
force the law.

An Up-to-Date Snake Story.
(Clay County Courier.)

(Clay County Courier)
United States Commissioner Herbert
comes to the front with the latest up-to-
date snake story, which runs about thusly:
While riding out a few days ago an I'M
usual noise in the grass and leaves on the
roadside attracted his attention. and upon
investigation found two very large black
snakes apparently in a life and death
struggle, which resulted in the larger
snake swallowing the smaller one as far
as his capacity would permit, when it was
found that several inches of the tail of the
partly swallowed reptile had to remain
cut in the cold for want of room on the
inside On killing and separating their
snakeship it was found that there was
only a few inches difference in the length
of the two. the largest being four feet.

A MORNING TONIC.

Grew. Henry van Dyke, D. d.
Suppose that the Christian life, in its
daily manifestation, should come to be
marked and known by simplicity and
happiness. Suppose that the followers OF
Jesus should really escape from bondage
to the evil spirits of avarice and luxury
which infect and torment so much of
our complicated, tangled, artificial modern
life. Suppose that instead of increasing
their wants and their desires: instead of
loading themselves down on LIES journey
with SO many bags and parcels and boxes
OF superfiuous luggage and bric-a-brac
that they are forced to sit down by the
roadside and gasp for breath; instead
of wearing themselves out in the dusty
ways of competition and vain show, or
embittering their hearts because they can
not succeed in getting into the weary race
of wealth and fashion, suppose instead of
all this they should turn to quiet ways,
lowly pleasures. pure and simple joys,
plain living and high thinking" Sup
pose they should truly find and clearly
show their happiness in the knowledge
that God loves them and Christ died for
them and heaven is sure, and so set their
hearts free to rejoice in life's common
mercies, the light of the sun, the blue
of the sky, the splendor of the sea, the
peace of the everlasting hills, the song of
the birds, the sweetness of flowers, the
wholesome SAVIOR of good food, the delight
of action and motion, the refreshment of
sleep, the charm of music. the blessings
of human love and friendship-rejoice in
all these without fear or misgiving be-
cause they come from God and because
Christ has sanctified them all by his pres
ence and touch.

A GOOD SIGN OF THE TIMES.

Charlotte News.
One of the best signs of the times in
North Carolina is the fact that so many
of our leading papers are taking up the
cause of temperance and fighting the sa-
loon. Nearly all of our county exchanges
are on the side of the anti-saloon league
and such dailies as the News and Observer
with the largest circulation in North
Carolina, Raleigh Times, the Wilmington
Messenger and several others we might
name are, with The News, of course, com
mitted to the proposition that the saloon
is the worst solution of the liquor pro-
blem.

NOT THE SOUTHERN'S WAY OF
DOING.
Greensboro Telegram.

Greensboro Telegram.
All friends of education will sympathize
sincerely with the Methodist Protestant
College in the plight which the Southern's
shifting yard plans have placed it. 1t must
be discouraging in the extreme to the men
who have been laboring in behalf of the
college to find their plans thus thwarted
at the very beginning of the enterprise
If the Southern must have its yard at the
locality chosen, why shouldn't it do the
handsome thing by paying the college a
good round sum for it, enabling the insti-
tuition to go to some other site and have
something left over after paying for it?

DIVORCE MILLS AT HOME.

The time was, when North Carolina folks
wanted a divorce contrary to the rules
laid down in the Bible, they were forced
to journey westward. This was true
also of the whole East and South and
the necessity of going to the new and
hardly civilized frontier States was thus
commemorated in song:
ITO the West went Hiawatha,
To the land of the Dakotahs,
To the land of handsome women,
Ana~in ninety days returning
A divorcelet he brought with him.
To his wife he gave the ha, ha,
Sent her back unto her mama
On the outskirts of Chi-ca-go!"
)
But now, while long residence in North
Carolina is required, the divorce laws of
North Carolina as well as of some other
Eastern and Southern States have been
made so lax as to suggest that the law
makers have never read the Bible. Ger
tainly if they have read it they have not
needed it, for their laws are in direct
conflict with it's teachings.
God bless South Cardinal OF all the
States in the Republic. it is the only one
that sticks to the Bible cause for divorce

Fame For a lowly Steer.

l.. Murphy, comparatively poor
farmer livingn mile south of Tecum-
sch, Neb., was astounded when he
learned that an ordinary steer, which
he sold to a stranger six months ago
for 500, bad been judged the grand
champion steer of America at the
International Live Stock Show in
Chicago.
The inhabitants of Tecumseh and
farmers of that section are equally
surprised that Farmer Murphy had
brought so much fame upon the
community unconsciously.
The story of the discovery of the
steer of unknown quality was relat-
ed by Prof. II. r. Smith of the agri-
cultural department of the Nebraska
University at the stock show today.

might have gone through the world

him. said tho Professor laughingly.
