tho State. there should be a very large
attendance of teachers. In order that
the teaching profession may WELD
the influence that it should and that
which the people of the State have
a right to expect, it is very important
that they should meet together ex-
change ideas, know each other better
and formulate plans for the advance
ment of the educational interests
There is not another profession rep
resented I'm NIrth Carolina whoee
members do not look forward to, and
take great interest in their annual
meetings. 1t is all the more import
ant that We should attend our meet
ings, because there is no profession
more important to the States welfare
than the one to which we belong.
1.-THE meeting at Greensboro will
be unusually interesting and instruc-
tive, in that some of the most dis
tinguished educators in the country
have consented to be with us and
make addresses. Besides Walter II.
Page, editor of the Worlds Work and
one Of our States most distinguished
sons, whose interest in the education
al development of the State of his ma
tivity has always been so marked.
there will be half a dozen others of
national reputation, whose life work
has been in the line or euucdtlOH. III
view of such rare opportunity as
will be given North Carolina teachers
of history the best talent that can
be secured. no. one who expects to
help in the development of the educa-
tional uplift that our State is now eS-
periencng can afford not to attend
this meeting.
1.-The management has done every
thing possible to make this years as
sembly the best ever held in North
Carolina. The various railroad com-
panies have given rates so satisfactory
that no objection can be raised against
them. Board can also be secured in
Greensboro at very reasonable rates
The town has raised $1,000 for the
maintenance of the assembly. In fact
nothing has been left undone to rend-
er the cost of attendance inexpensive.
Let us all lay aside a few dollars with
which to defray our expenses and at
tend this great meeting. There
should be at least $500 or 1000 North
Carolina teachers at Greensboro. 1t
is going to be a large and important
gathering, and all who fail to attend
will regret it,"

His Wife Caused Him to Make In

Made Thousands.

At one time Mr.. w. S. Maultsby,
of Fayetteville, was a very poor man.
His wife caused him to make an in
vestment that made them comfortable
for life. Speaking of it Mr.. Maultsby
says:
About twelve years ago / took the
treatment at Greensboro, N. c., and
had it not been for that today | doubt
whether / would have had a home; in
fact, / do not think l would be living
to need one. / cared for nothing but
drink, and it took one quart for three
drinks. / had run through nearly all
/ owned, which consisted of a stock OF
goods wirth several thousand dollars,
a comfortable home, and everything to
moke home happy. Drink, like pra-
irie fire, had swept everything from
me. l had run my stock of goods
down to a mere song and cared for
nothing. My home was mortgaged,
and in a few months would be gone.
had even quit attending to the little
business I had, and my wife and oldest
son. who was about fourteen years
old, were running it the best they
could | had even lost my credit, yes,
everything. To make a long story
short / was as low down as man
could get. l had delirium so bad that

the worst had come, SO it was either
the Kecley Institute or the asylum, or
worse. and my wife got me off to
Greensboro Kelley Institute.
/ returned home clothed in my right
mind, and ready for business. l felt
like a new man, and in fact was; and
in q short while had as fine bust
ness as any man in Fayetteville, and,
instead of losing my home, in three
years 1 owned five nice dwelling hous-
es.
God bless the Kelley Institute and
it's noble doctors. May they live long
and prosper is the earnest prayer of
w S. MAULTSBY,

The seTaiI Enders'' That Follow Gen

If ia sometimes interesting to Watch
the curves imitators make to get the
public to buy limitations of the genuine
goods. -,
Every now and then some one will
think there is splendid opening 10
fix up something like Postum Coffee
and advertise the same way and take
some of the business.
An imitator is naturally ignorant OF
food values and how to skilfully make
n cereal coffee. on scientific lines
Such men first think of preparing
something that looks and tastes like
the original, with no knowledge OF
how the grains should be treated to
prepare them SO that the starchy part
is transformed properly and the valu-
able nourishing elements made dlgeS-
THE.
Such limitations may be foisted on
the public for a short time, but the
people are critical and soon detect the
attempt. then the imitators go out OF
business.
Something like 400 of these little
factories have been started in vari-
Gus parts of this country in the past
years. and practically all of them
have gone the '1ong Journey" Just
lately new one has come to life and
evidently hopes to insert itself in pub
lie favor by copying the style of the
Postum advertising in the papers.
This is a free country and every
man who makes an honest product
and honestly labels it, has reason for
some recognition, but the public has
the right to know the facts.
Postum is the one original and
genuine Cereal Coffee, made skilfully
and for a definite purpose. 1t has
stood through all the wars of the imi-
tators, has won the approval of the
Physicians and the people.
People who really seek to free
themselves from the coffee habit and
at the same time to rebuild the soft
gray matter in the nerve centres and
thus reconstruct the nervous system
broken down by coffee, can rely or
Postum.
There's q reason.

of the attorneys but will hold his de-
cision until parties in Greensboro can
be heard from, as this was the county
from which they were sentenced.
There has been several efforts on
the part of tn attorneys of these men
to get them pardoned, and the fight
for this is kept up, which shows that
there is money behind the men who
