4 GLASS OF WATER.
When to Drink 1t and the Effects II

Will Produce.
Drink glass of water when you
get out of bed in the morning. New
er mind the size of the glass. Let
the water be cold if you will. Some
people prescribe hot water, but that
isn't necessary. You may have
washed your face already and rel
ished the experience. You may have
taken a cold plunge into the tub
and delighted in the shock and its
reaction. The brisk use of the tooth
brush has left your mouth clean
and the breath sweet. But you are
dirty still. Drink a glass Of cold
water and enjoy the sensation of
being clean inside. Al that is lux

Why do some drivers whip their
horses when the animals stumble
and when such stumbling is no
fault of the faithful beast? And
why do other drivers of horses
cruelty jerk the latter by the bit
until it would appear as if these
horses mouths would be split, be-
cause of some slight provocation
These are practices which prevail
in Sistersville, not with all driv-
ers by any means, because we
have just as kind and humane
drivers and owners of horses as
can be found in any community of
like size, but there are exceptions
as in every city. No use referr-
ing the matter to the humane So
ciety, presumably, as no prosecu-
tions are ever made. And Sisters
vile is rather good-sized town
to be without such official--one
who could find plenty to do out
side looking after horses. But this
subject has been thrashed over
and over through the press. Per
haps some day it may be taken up
by the proper authorities and a
change wrought.

Mr.. W. ". Parker, our well known
druggist, when interviewed in regard to
this matter, said: 1--WE have never sold
in our store such a wonderful vitalizer
and strength maker for the aged as
vinol: it is natures remedy for the sick,
the weak and the aged.
'VinOl owes it's virtue and great medi-
cinal power to the fact that it contains
in highly concentrated form all the &C.
tive curative properties of cod liver oil,
without drop of the nauseating grease
which characterizes the old-fashioned cod
liver oil and emulsions.

HaIIam's Revival of Damon and Pythias

For F. R. Hallam's magnificent re-
vival of the great classic play Damon
and Pythias" a splendid cast has
been selected. George johnson, who
has played the role over !, 900 times,
will be the Damon. For the part of
Pythias, Frank Angus, who is known
throughout the country as one of the
greatest legitimate actors of the day,
has been engaged. Harry D. Clifton,
who was the Dionysius in Frederick
Warde and Louis James production
OF damon and Pythias," will play
this role in the present revival.
Monica Lee, who was prominent in
the cast of Maude Adams Co. last
season, will be the Calanthe, and
Mary Holmes, who last season won
success in 'Romeo and Juliet" and
I'm the Palace of the King" is the
Hermion. The scenic investiture is
entirely new and unusually beautiful
and elaborate. Local playgoers will
have an opportunity of witnessing
this great production at Cooper
Opera House, Saturday night, March

contest for the Republican nomina-

contest iOf the RepuDlcan nOmIna-
ton
The race for the gubernatorial nomina-
ton continues to grow nfinterest. There
is apparently no change in the position
of the several racers. Stedman appears
to be in the lead still. In sounding politi-
cal prophets and listening to representa-
to the capital from the various sections,
it is noticed that most of them think it
probable that Stedman will be nomi-
mated. These same men, however, when
asked the question whether it would be
Glenn or Turner or Davidson, if Stedman
should not win. almost invariably say:
We'll, you can keep your eye on Turner
in that case"-or some similar remark.
The Lieutenant-Go is almost
universally regarded as safe and grow
ing public man, with and without regard
to this years contest for the governor
ship. Judge Frank Winston seems to
be meeting with fattering reception in
his candidacy for Lieutenant-GovernO
He is an able man and has been a hard
party worker for many years, and the
robes of this office would very properly
and becomingly grace his Intellectually
broad and experienced legislative should
ers.
1t is said there will be contests for the
nominations for Corpora zion Commits
sioner, Commissioner OF Labor, and per-
haps two or three other State offices,
but most OF the present officials will prob
ably be re-nominated.

Fight Over Dispensary Fight.

A warm dispensary-license cam
paign is in progress in the town OF
Greenville and the Reflector is taking
a very active hand in behalf Of a dis
pensary. A few evenings ago. while
its editor, Mr.. D. J. Whichard, was
on his way to supper he was stricken
from behind by a rum-se!ler, but he
had heard OF threats and had with
him his shooting-iron, drawing which
he fired twice on his assailant. one
ball striking him but being DETECTED
by button which it struck. Now
that bar-keep did not only a wrong
but very foolish thing. The assault
might have been justifable under
other circumstances, but the editor
had not mentioned the name of this
marl-Horton-but had argued his
case impersonally and with dignity
not offensively-to any particular
ltdividual. He will keep light on at
this, Of course, and the rum-seller,
having been guilty of an uniustifiable
breach OF the peace, has brought
harm to his own cause and business.

"Vinol acts first upon the stomach

from the food eaten the elements needed
for rich, red blood, healthy body material

it repairs worn tissues, checks the natural

place weakness with strength.
In the strongest manner we unhesi-

tality to the aged, build up the run down,

This seemed a strong statement for a

every person in Henderson ought to take
advantage of Mr.. Parker's offer; as, of
course, he has a very wide knowledge Of

Do Not Be Swept OFF Your Feet.
Charlotte Observer.
Tho Durham HopaT1 Savc.

The Durham Herald says:
''The appointment of receiver for the
Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad may
be a high-handsd piece of business, but
we are not going to say SO until we find
out more about it. We have not forgot
ten the bond case"
1t is just as we'll not to forget the
frequent cries of Wolf in the past,
when there was no wolf, nor how you
have become frantic over public out
RACES which turned out not to be
outrages at all. There was just as
great hubbub, just as much hys-
terra a few years ago when the North
Carolina Railroad was leased to the
Southern, as there is now about the
receivership for the Atlantic & N. G.
Railroad; yet, as soon as the shout
ing and tumult died the State and
the private stockholders realized that
the directors had made a capital
trade for them, and everybody has
been satisfied ever since. However
this receivership may terminate.
whether made permanent or vacated
we are here to prophecy that no
harm will have come to the State or
the private stockholders. Capt Nc
Bee is an honest man, and he knows
his business, which is that of operat-
ing railroads. If half that our New
Berne correspondent telegraphed last
night is true, the status hitherto
existing was not changed a minute
too soon. What we want to impress
upon the tax payers of North Caro-
lima, however, is that they have
stake of a million dollars in this
property upon which they have never
gotten anything, and that, having
waited since 1857, it is high time
they were beginning to realize some
thing on it. And we would say to
the emOtiOnal-whO have been fooled
before but have forgotten it-and
who have now permitted themselves
to be dashed into a fury of fear that
the whole universe is going to hell in
a hand-basket because the Atlantic
& North Carolina Railroad has gone
into the hands of receiver, as Paul
and Silas said to the affrighted taller,
''Do thyself no harm for we are all
here" So far as the tax payers are
concerned, if the road is to go on
hereafter as it has heretofore. they
would not be worsted If it were torn
up and hauled away. But this is not
going to be, nor is anything else ad-
verse to their interests going to hap
pen to it. Moderate, therefore. your
excitement. Wait and see.

Murder a Pastime.
+ airbrother's Everything.


In the case of the murderers of
Percy Jones at Wilson-where a
crowd of men in cold blood killed a
defenceless fellow citizen, it has finally
been agreed that the band could
plead guilty and serve short sent
ence in jail
This is high-handed and shocking.
1t is why people believe that court
houses should be torn down and tur-
nips planted on the ground they oc-
cupy. 1t is why so many cold blooded
murders are committed, ard it is why
that finally lynch law will sit in the
saddle. North Carolina cannot afford
these things. The bill must be paid.
She had better see to it that even
handed justice is meted out. Cunning
lawyers and dishonest jurors may
have their inning for a time-but it
will not be forever. There have been
dozen or so first-class hangings in
definitely postponed in this State
that should have taken place.
