 It is great because it has al ways aimed to inform, instruct and entertain it's readers on all matters of public and home in- terest. In 1904 1t will be espe- cially interesting and valuable. Here are some reasons why you should subscribe for it:

 You will be interested in and kept well informed by the farm visitor, a regular supplement of the paper, prepared especially for the farmer and his family.
 You will want to know what the world is doing in every field of activity, and through the un- surpassed news and special ser vice of the tWice-a-week Repub- lie you will not be disappointed.
 In short sketches, choice bits of fiction, articles of interest to women, children and household suggestions the TWice-a-Week Republic easily leads among the weeklies of the great West.

sau pork issued to Private r. T..
Woodlief, of Franklin county, on the
Bird day of May, 1S64,'near Orange
Court House, Va, the day before the
Wilderness fight commenced. Per
haps, owing to it's small size, it got
lost through a hole in his pocket and
was hid in the lining of his coat or
the corner of his knapsack. At any
rate Mr.. Woodlief carried this piece
of meat with him until the close OF
the war and brought it home with
him. He has kept it ever since, re
garding it as something sacred al
most until a short time ago he was
prevailed upon to send it to the
State Museum in Raleigh, where it
was placed in the Hall of History de:
partment. Mr. Woodlief is informed
that his war time ration has been
sent to St. Louis and visitors to the
Exposition may see it in the NORTH
