SORRY II YOU MISS 1T.
The Most Beautiful Display the World
Has Ever Seen.

No more beautiful sights. no grand
er display. no more of merrimepr ana
mirth has ever been seen than is now
to be found at the great exposition in
St. Louis.
This is the last month to see this
greatest of Worlds Fairs and the
Seaboard Air Line is offering very
tempting trip over a beautiful scenic
route at a very low rate with every
personal attention guaranteed
The trip is to begin on the 10th Of
November and will be under the per-
sonal supervision of Mr.. G. II. Gattis
travelling passenger agent of the road
who will be assisted by Mr.. Edward
Z. BrittOn. These gentlemen will ar
range for everything in the way Of
comfort for the party that is going,
and see to hotel accommodations in
St. Louis.
1t is to be the pleasanteSt trip of
the year and as it is the last of the
personally conducted trips it is certain
to be largely patronized. All parties
who wish to go should write Mr.. CAT
It's or Mr. Britton. so that advance
arrangements can be made. Remen-
Der that the party leaves on the tenth
Of November and that special figures
apply to every part of North Carolina.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know HOW Useful it Is III
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most etnclent
disinfectant and purifier in nature,
but rev realize its value when taken
into the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
YOU take of it the better; it is not q
drug at all. but simply absorb the
cases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestnes ana
carries them out of the SYSTEM
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and I'M
groves the complexion. 1T Whltens the
teeth and further acts as natural ana
eminently safe cathartsc.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfeltS the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another. but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
is in Stuart'S Charcoal LozengeS; they
are composed OF the finest powdered
Willow Charcoal, and other harmless
antiseptics in tablet form or rather in
the form Of large, pleasant tasting
lozenges, the charcoal being mixed
with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges, will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
ton Of the general health, better COM
plexion, sweeter breath and purer
blood, and the beauty or it is, that no
possible harm can result from then
continued use, but on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking of
the benefits of charcoal, says: Il ad-
,ise Stuarts Charcoal LoZenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stom-
ach and bowels, and to clear the COM
piexion and purify the breath, mouth
and throat; I also believe the liver is
greatly benefited by the daily use Of
Them: they cost but twenty-five cents
2 box at drug stores and although in
some sent a patent preparation, yet I
believe I get more and better char
coal Lozenges than in any Of the ordi-
nary charcoal tablets

WAS NOT HER SON
Ground on Which TeIe-
graph Go. Wants a
New Trial.

Harrison V. Telegraph Company.
which was argued yesterday in the
Supreme Court, brings forward a new
Wrinkle in mental anguish"
The case comes up on appeal from
Rowan county and was argued yester-
day upon a motion f. a new trial on
the ground of newly discovered evil
dence, this being that the plaintiff in
the case, who was supposed to be the
mother of the man the news of whose
death was delayed, was in reality
only the stepmother and no blood re-
lation.
The facts as brought out in the
hearing are as follows:
The plaintiff lives with her husband
at High Point and the son of the man
she married, Branson Harrison. lived
al Salisbury. On the occasion of the
death of his son. Mr.. Harrison tried
to announce the fact to his wife at
High Point by a telegram over the
Western Union lines. The telegram
was either not sent or not delivered
and Mrs. Harrison brought suit in
Rowan county obtaining a verdict of
$500 from the jury.
During the trial of the case in the
Superior Court Mrs. Harrison through
out her testimony referred to the de-
ceased as my SON. and the company 8
attorneys naturally proceeded upon
the presumption that she meant her
child instead of a step-relatiVe. When
they discovered their mistake they at
once took steps to obtain a new trial
on the ground of newly discovered eVi-
dence.
The point made by the telegraph
company is that, while in cases of par
ents and child and other close rela-
tionships, there is a presumption OF
mental anguish" in cases where tele-
grams announcing sickness or death
are not delivered. the rule does not
extend to relationships following from
marital relations. Mrs. Harrison, they
claimed, proved no mental anguish
and the verdict was the result OF I
mistake as to the facts on the part
of both court and jury

The COUNTY SUPTS.
Meet Here Nov. 30th, Dec.
1st. Supt. Joyner's
Letter.

Superintendent j. Y. Joyner has
tendents of the State notifying them
of the annual meeting of the State as
ISOLATION, which is to be held in Raj
eigh, in the House of Representatives,
on Wednesday and Thursday, NOVem-
Der goth and December fst 1904.
The attention of the superintendents
is called by the letter the fact that
they are required by law to attend
the meeting continuously and that the
county boards of education are re-
ouired to pay the travelling expenses
and a fee to the superlntendents
while in attendance. The hope is eE-
pressed that everv superintendent IN
the State will be present In time Tor
the first meeting of the association
which will be held at eleven o'clock
on Wednesday morning. Last year "
out Of 81 superintendent in the State
were present. The per diem is only
paid to such as draw no salaries from
the counties, while railroad fare Is
paid to all.
Supt. Joyner forcefully calls atten-
ton to the advantages of the yearly
conference between the superintend-
cnts and the official head of the
school system, and asks that they suG-
gest questions for discussion. The aim
is to make the meeting a practical one
devoted to work, the aim being to have
= free interchange of ideas about the
common work of all teachers and to
give one another the benefit of expert
ence and observation.
Mr.. Joyner is sending to each of the
superintendent package of Damph-
lets on the duties and powers of
school committeeman, which he asks
be transmitted to the members Of the
boards of the various counties. and
will also send in few days pamph-
lets containing Il course of study for
the public schools. It is urged that
the course prepared be placed in the
hands of every teacher of a public
school and it's systematic use rigidly
enforced by suDerintendents.
Two of the features of the meeting
of the association will be a discussion
of q uniform course of study to be
adopted in the schools and to the con-
sideratiOn of the practical business
details of the public school work in
the counties and an effort will be
made to systematic and further facil-
late this special work.
While the meetings of the superin-
and the association seems to enjoy it
self, there is little of the iunket about
about the conduct of the members.
They stick closely to business and
leave too quickly after they are done
AS Mr.. Joyner says it is a working
body.
