The Stomach is the Man.

A weak stomach weakens the
man, because it cannot transform the
food he eats into nourishment.
Health and strength cannot be re-
stored to any sick man or weak wo-
man without first restoring health
and strength to the stomach. A
weak stomach cannot digest enough
food to feed the tissues and revive
the tired and run down limbs and
organs of the body. Kodol Dyspep-
STA Cure digests what you eat, cleanses
and strengthens the glands and mem
branes of the stomach, and cures in
digestion, dyspepsia and all stomach
troubles. Sold by Goldsboro Drug Co.

DEATH OF SENATORS HOAR.

George FrfsbIe Hoar, who died
last week in his Massachusetts home,
was a republican throughout the
years of his active life, but he was
ever a conscientious kind-hearted
republican who meant no wrong to
any man or any section. His judg-
ment at times may have been as
fault, yet no one even questioned his
honesty, his high character.
Not long before his final illness he
delivered an address in which he re-
| GREETED much of the bitterness of the
past. He went on to say that if he
had known southern statesmen as
well as he did then, he would have
sOftened many an expression and
perhaps altered some beliefs. But
while he thus accused himself let it
be said that in kindness of heart and
honesty of purpose no senator on his
side of the chamber exceeded him.
He was a man who brought
scholarship into the field of politics.
He died, as he had lived, poor in
this worlds goods. When to his
many gifts was added a rare sense of
humor, we had a senator of delight
full equipment. No one was listened
to with greater attention. He did
not belong to the inside circles of
schemers. He was not an Aldrich
or a Spooner, but he was a cultured.
rare old man, who was an honor to
his state and a delight to his friends.
He died full of years and honors,
and in Massachusetts, long roll of
senators there is scarcely one whose
memory will be more warmly cher
i~hed-not one whose bright pass
ages will be more widely read and
reread. At times, In the clash of
parties, he sometimes offended the
people of the south, but all in this
section appreciate the worth and
manliness of his character, and no
harsh words will be uttered in these
states over his honored grave.

Then and Now.

EDITOR ARGUs:-We commend
your criticism in your issue of Octo-
Der 3rd. You put it very mildly,
when we consider the fact that we
who use lights and water pay the
city more money for water and
lights and in water and. light taxes
than the city formally paid in rent
to the corporations hat owned the
two plants. When we were asked to
vote for the Board to buy them we
were promised more water for less
money and better and cheaper lights.
Now we have to feel our way often
at night and shut our eyes to keep
out the dust in the day. Our street
sprinkler has ceased to be a thing of
beauty and gives us no joy what
ever.

OLD ~VESUVIUS.

The long list Of casualties, so fatal
in their conscquences-steamboat
disasters, railroad wrecks, fires,
murders, suicr.t,, floods, cyclones,
epidemics, social urecks, wars,
famine and p itical upheavals-
seems to have Weakened Vesuvius
from a season q! lethargy, and he
Joins in con-. RI with the voice of
destruction, and is belching forth
fire and birthstone. The arsenal and
magazine which have stood for ages
beneath the ancient mountain seem
to have beeD resupplied with am
munitlon, and the molten lava comes
down the mountain side into the bay
of Naples with a force equal to that
reported of the early centuries.
The half-million people of Naples,
eight miles away, are viewing the
pyrotechnics with awe. Solicitude
is not, however, in evidence there,
for Naples has ever been spared the
destroying force Of Vesuvius' fury
by nature, which leads the lava
through the bay and into the deep
seas beyond.
1T would be singular indeed if We
suvius should keep silent in this age
of fury. The old mountain speaks
as a voice from the plutonic regions;
and that voice has no uncertain
sound. It is uttering a warning,
and that warning is that the waters
of the sea aQd. the surface Of the
earth are not Ghe only theatres of
punitive wrath-not the only scenes
of death and destrHctionE

SUNDAY

Sunday is the dullest day in the
week to thousands Of persons. I'll '
look forward to it with pleasure and
are GLAD when the day Is over. The
average person sleeps late on Sunday
morning. That frequently means a
headache. One rises listiessly and
yaWnS into his clothes. He goes down
to late breakfast. His day has been
spoiled before it begins. After the
breakfast one starts in to rest"
There is the head of the family who
following breakfast, goes down town
or for his mail. 1t will not do to let
business go till Monday, and possibly
he stays down town half the day.
At the house every one lounges
through the sluggish hours. Then
comes a heavy Sunday dinner for
which one has no appetite. After
dinner comes a nap that does not
refresh. Again the Sunday paper.
There is no exercise in the open air.
Ii it is winter sunshine and fresh air
are shut out of the rooms. Before
the day is over each bone is tired of
bis own JazineSS. The sday had been
one of inertneSs. loss of bodily spring
and spirits.
There is a better way, if you will
permit the suggestion. Arise at the
usual hour. Breathe deeply of the
fresh air before breakfast. Dress and
60 to church Walk to the church
and back. Take your wife or mother
or sister. You will go home to your
Sunday dinner with a keen appetite.
When the children come from Sunday
school there will be a fresh. glad com
pany about the board. Home ties
will be the more closely knitted. If
you have not bad as much air as you
need go TO the river or country ia the
afternoon. Or if the entire day is
used occasionally for an outing that is
good. But see TO it that you get
plenty of exercise aud sunshine and
air.
Do not change Sunday-designed
for change and reStfuInesS and relaxa-
tion-intO lazy day.

GOOD ADVICE

EDITOR OF THE REPORTER:
Is it possible to get your editorial
department interested sufficiently to
give the good people a hint on the
very bad taste of using Xmas" in
the place Of Christmas. Is it not
really un-Christian? | am eXtrcmely Y
sorry that large number of our best
merchants who are professed followers
of Christ incOnSiderately use Xmas.
1t is certainly not 10 accord with all
our early training, and severe shock
to all the many hallOwed teachings OF
the we'll remembered past.
A CONSTANT READER.
We should be glad to see the last of
that abominable abbreviation of
ChriStmaS-which means. of course, a
mass or service in honor of Christ.
1t is vulgarly irreverent, if not un-
Christian. The sign used in the
abbreviation is not our English X.
but the Greek Chi, which has the
sound of ch. 1t is like talking about

DO WE UNDERSTAND IT?

For the purpose of getting at the
facts We have asked a number of
prominent men. some OF them poll
ticans and primary reform advocates,
to state just the meaning of primary
reform and state how it will work and
what it is supposed to do when it
does work, and in more than one half
the cases they do not exactly know
just the particulars of the thing. With
some, primary reform stands for a
splendid, glittering generality, it's
one Of these things that dwell in the
region of idealized politics. Others
believe in primary reform getting
down to the beginning and working
up until it has a grip on the whole
state, with others primary reform is
the attempt to bring a new thing
into perfect working order, all
complete, and in a day. Some men
advocate trying the principle in a
spot and if it's what people want to
enlarge the spot until the spot is as
big as Wisconsin. s}ur experience is
that the people need to be educated
as to the term, 'primary reform

THE DIVORCE
PROBLEM AGAIN

1t is one of the anomalies of the
high civilization of which we boast in
America that we should hold the
palm among the great civilized
nations of the world for loose and
easy laws and customs on the subject
of marriage Why this should be in a
home-loving country like ours. a
country where women in general are
treated with more courtesy and
respect than in any other. it is not
easy to explain. Still more difficult
it is to understand or to explain why,
in a country where, with the exception
of Utah, there is apparently such a
homogeneity of sentiment on the
subject of marriage and divorce,
where we are all apparently agreed as
to the sacredneSS Of the family rela-
tion there should be such diversity of
State laws on the subject. ranging all
the way from the law of North
Carolina allowing divorce on 10
ground whatever, to those States.

granted according to a system that

HOW THE REPUB=
LICANS WON

President RooSevelt's tolerance,
democracy, and contemptdous dis
regard of lines of wealth, race and
color captivated the imagination of
his countrymen. naturaliZed as well
as native, won the administration of
Jews, Germans, Italians, and all
other ingredients entering into the
American composite, and, for tue
first time in tue party'S history.
carried majority of the Irish vote to
the Republican side. In the last
named exploit he far surpassed the
work of Blaine in the same field in
1884. The Presidents courage, balance.
foresight, lightening-like grasp of
situations, and broad, Sane, stalwart
AmericaniSm elected him in 1901 and
it is within the bonds of ossibility
that situation may develop itself
which will compel his countrymen tt
