WHAT SULPHUR DOES.
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease.

The mention of sulphur will reeall
to many of us the early days when
our mothers and grandmothers gave
us our daily dose of sulphur and
molasses every spring and fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
"blood purifier" tonic and cure-all,
and mind you, this old-fashioned
remedy was crude and unpalatable,
and o large quantity had to be taken
to get any effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects Of sulphur in a palatable, con-
centrated form, so that q single grain
is far more effective than q table
spoonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years research and eX-
pertinent have proven that the best
sulphur for mendicinal use is that
obtained from Calcium calcium
Sulphide) and sold in drug stores
under the name of Stuarts Calcium
Waters. They are small chocolate
coated pellets and contain the active
medicinal principle of sulphur in a
highly concentrated, effective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bodily vigor and
health; sulphur acts Directly on the
liver, and excretory organs and puri-
fies and enriches the blood by the
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dosed US with sulphur and
moIasses every spring and fall but
the crudity and impurity of ordinary
flowers of sulphur We're often worse
than the disease, and cannot COM
pare with the modern concentrated
preparations Of sulphur, Of which
Stuart's Calcium Waters is undoubt-
ediy the best and most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
constipation and purify the blood in
. way that often surprises patient
and physician alike.
Dr.. r. NJ. wilkins while experiment.
ing with sulphur remedies soon found
that the sulphur from Calcium was
superior to any other form. He says:
For liver. kidney and blood troubles,
especially Unen resulting from con-
StipatiOn or malaria, | have been sur
prised at the results obtained from
StuaTt's Calcium Waters. In patients
suffering from boils and pimples and
even deep-seated carbuncles, / have
repeatedly seen them dry up and dis
appear in four or five days, leaving
the skin clear and smooth. Although
Stuarts Calcium Waters is a prop
rietary article and sold by druggists
and for that reason tabooed by many
physicians, yet / know of nothing
80 safe and reliable for constipation,
liver and kidney troubles and espe-
cally IN all forms of skin diseases as
this remedy
At any rate people who are tired of
pills, cathartics and so-callcd blood
purifiers will find in Stuart's Cal
cium Waters, far safer. more palat-
able and effective preparation.

will have to pass as many laws as
there are women.
The blackleg gets in her work in
this manner. Eighty-five per cent. of
divorces are applied for by women.
Man finds it too expensive, besides
he has a thicker skin, will take more,
and there is no premium. The Wo-
man can always mulch him for ALI
mony pending suit for counsel fees
Thus she couples her divorce desires
with her premium. In New York
there is a combination of divorce
lawyers with an organized gang OF
detectives, with branch offices in
every large city.
This gang works the adultery
charge for all it's worth.
The woman is notified that the man
lis doubtful. once the charge rs
brought it is half proven to the esti-
mate of many.
She is furnished a detective and
suit is brought What care these
scavengers whether the charge is true
or not. or whether she gets a decree?
They are sure of their fees, and fire.
auently what cares she? If she loses
she's had alimony, pending suit. The
Judge invariably ladies out the
amount in accordance with the size of
his rocket book.
Lawyers and wives frequently con-
spire to rob the husband on trumped-
UP charges. and this particular accu-
sation is invariably made because It
is the easiest and the most probable,
and is likely to convince more people.
There is one divorce out of every
eight MARRIAGES in Ohio; one out of
every five in San Francisco, and this
privilege allowed the women is re-
sponsible for more than fifty per
cent. | ask in all reason, is it good
for the State that she be allowed the
privilege of divorce for the cause
mentioned? Every law that has
thrown open the divorce doors, is a
literal copy Of the Yankee laws that
have ruined their social system.
Why should a Democratic Legisia-
ture In a Democratic state, copy the
Republican laws in the Yankee
States that have made their social sys-
tenn a stencil in the nostrilS of the
world? We were once decent. Why
are these men not willing to let well
enough alone? In Rhode Island the
LAWYERS combined and publicly de-
feated decent divorce legislation. In
the District OF Columbia they in bulk
petitioned Congress to increase the
divorce cause as closing the doors had
ruined their business.
this matter: The Legislature either
fight respectable legislation through
Interior motives or through ignorance
one or the other.-Which is it!

Ransom.

For him who in a hundred battles
stood,
Scoring the lannon's mouth,
Gri1ny with flame and red with foe
mans blood,
For thy sweet sake, o South.
Who, wise as brave, yielded his con-
quered sword
At vain wars Surcease,
And spoke, thy champion still the
statesman's word
In the calm halls of peace;
Who pressed the ruddy wine to thy
faint lips
Where thy torn body lay
And saw afar times white installing
ships
Bringing happier day.
o, mourn for him, dear land that gave
him birth!
Sow low thy sorrowing head!
Let thy scared leaves fall silent on

In wisdcm's livery,
Gentle and brave, he moved with
knightly pace,

(By CarOHna NOrIn.l
Respectfully dedicated to the Editor

Mr.. Johnson, Mr.. Johnson! How can
you be so rough
On Carolina rhymers who send you
silly stuff
Remember they are human like edi-
tors and those
Who force upon the public some very
sorry prose.
And have a little mercy on the next
one to submit
A poem sadly lacking in poetry and
wit,
Or put within your paper notice
that will do.
The "bizness" for the writers of the
"prozy" pieces. too.
If some deserve a Choking" the 9th
ers / am sure,
Should have a thorough baking to
bring a SPEEDY cure.
And who so eft and ready for such
killing" task,
AS he who made the poets give their
final, feeble gasp:
So chuck the fuel in, Sir, and heat the
paper hot
With scorching editorials to cook
them on the spot,
And When the JOp Is HnlSHeu--WHctl
you have done them brown. )"
Then advertise their funeral to all the
world around,
Just as you did the creatures who pre-
sumed to send to you
Such loads of fools-cap verses until
you "choked'' them blue.
If all the other papers were so down
upon the Muse
SO stingy with their praises-so eager
to abuse
No timid spark of genius would dare
to burst aflame
And shed upon the North State the
glory of its fame:
But here and there we find one whose
editor can feel
A just and honest pride in the verses
of Mcneil,
Yet show a little Charity to others
not so wise
Who foot by foot are striving from
rhyming to arise.
Here's to their health and happiness
these men of noble mind
Who, seeking to be just-remember to
be kind.
And often print a poem whose crude
and faulty style
Would almost make d dog laugh. or
force A cat to smile.
Yet holds within it somewhere mes
sage true and strong
That whispers how the writer may
sing q grander song,
When careful thought and study
through coming years of time,
Have brought the skill that's needed
to polish UP his rhyme.

KILLED IMMIGRATION
BUREAU BILL.
After n Flood of Oratory it Goes Down
BY Vote of 10 to 80.

After oratory of the skyscraplng or
der, argument strong enough to arouse
a wooden Indian, bouquets thrown at
beauties in the gallery, quotations OF
poetry and in general a golden Jubliee
time of eloquence the House last night
sat down hard on the proposition for
State Immigration Bureau killing
it by a vote of 70 to 80, duly looking
to it's interment.
Out of all the beautiful foliage of
the forest of words that luxur1ated IN
abandon and abundance here is a set
of them that convey a charming idea;
this that the climate of North caro-
lima is worth SIS an acre, not counting
the value of the land" Mr.. Warburton
of Scotland county, being the author
of this, in advocating that the bill pass,
and paying tribute as an Immigrant
who loves the State in which he has
found home and so much joy.
This bill to create a Department of
Immigration for the State was the first
matter discussed, the bill being read,
with the statement that the committee
on Appropriations returned the Dill
without prejudice, the Committee on
immigration favoring it, and having
drafted it. The bill lcarries an annual
appropriation of $1,000.
Branch's Able Plea.
Mr.. Branch, of Beaufort, spoke 10
the bill and endorsed it as chairman
of the Committee on immigration.
He told of the need of such a depart
ment and explained it's value, telling
of farm lands to be utilized and waste
places to be built up. He declared
that only the best classes of people
should be brought to North Carolina,
where is to be found the purest An
glo-Saxon citizenship, and that every
safeguard had been placed IN the bill
to keep out the scum of the earth.
The necessity for adding to the citizen
ship of North Carolina, he declared,
is a vital one. that young men leave
the farms, that labor in the country is
hard 10 secure, and that an influx of
hardy, thrifty people would prove of
inestimable value.
He announced that he was not
welded to any policy or any bill, ex-
cept as such would aid in the devel-
opment of the State. He presented
the view that this bureau might be a
cost to the State for a few years, but
that the result of added population. of
increased values to lands now idle,
would soon overcome the cost increas-
ed values with more taxes. The late
introduction of the bill, he explain

mittee desired to obtain full informa-

The States Invitation to Blacl1mail


To the Editor: The proposition to
apply the divorce principle of adul-
terry 10 women as we'll as men is the
most dangerous attack that has yet
been made on decent society. This is
pre-eminently the blackmailer's
chance. 1t, sounds fair to the layman
ana VIII be accepted with alacrity
put every shyster lawyer knows that
therein lies his harvest. Evidently
the gentleman who propose this radi-
cal departure from the rules of COM
mon sense and decency believe that
II there is any fifth going around
the woman must have her share.
Grant that it is necessary to "even
up (Which unquestionably ] do not)
would It not be better to curtail his
privileges rather than to enlarge
hers?
Why are you SO particular to have
women divorced anyway? Why do
you feel called upon to fill the mar
ket with this kind of secondhand
furniture?
Refusing to allow a woman a di-
vorce for the cause mentioned was
incorporated in the law upon the
soundest reasoning. The man is
abroad, the woman is at home His
occasional transgression does not,
permanently, injure the family, hers
ruin 1T. His position is such that his
doubtful act is generally Involuntary.
Hers is voluntary because of her
home >seclusion.
Allow her this privilege and she
will destroy many a domestic estab-
lishment, and such destruction will
be of no value to the State. You've
got no business trying to legislate to
suit the sentiments and tastes of wo-
men. Your duty is to legislate to
preserve the family unit. To try to
follow her whims and fancies you

The accident happened at Clifton

so closely that the flagman had not
time to get back far enough to pre-
vent the collision.

of the Ohio engineers. 1t was made
up of six coaches and baggage car.

Der of cars carried the Ti~necanoe
