ARE RECEIVED.

The strongest life insurance COM
pany in North Carolina, and the
strongest in the South. if industrial
companies are excepted, has proposed
TO loan or invest as far as practlcabie
its premiums in the county from
which they are received. This is
right and as it should be. and carries
the idea of home patronage to its
logical and proper conclusion The
money paid for life insurance, should
be returned for loan or Investment to-
the locality which has contributed the
same. In this way life insurance be-
COMES factor in building up COM
munity instead of being a drain upon
it. ~ ----=-=---=':----
The company which has proposed
to adopt this plant in the conduct of
it's business is the Southern Life and
Trust Company, of Greensboro, North
Carolina. This company is one of
the most solid. substantial sand sue
cessful financial institution of the
South. studiouslY avoiding the mad
scramble for big business which has
discredited so many of the big for
eign life insurance companies.
This company has a surplus to its
policy holders of over a quarter of
a million and is the only life insu-
rance company that has proposed TO

WHAT SULPHUR DOES.
For the Human Body in Health and
13-. IL 4 DiseaSp,xs g -

The mention of sulphur will recall
to many of us the early days when
our mothers and grandmothers. gave
us our daily dose of sulphur and mo-
laSses every spring and fall
1t was the universal spring and fall
"blood purifier" tonic and cure~all,
and mind you, this old-fashioned rem
edys was not without merit.
. The idea was good. but the remedy
was crude and unpalatabIe, and a
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. g.
In recent years, research and eX-
pertinent have proven that the best
sulphur for medicinal use is that OBJ
tanned from Calcium Calcium. SUI
phide) and sold in drugs stores under
the name of Stuart's Calcium Waters.
lets and contain the active medicinal
principle of sulphur in a highly con-
centrated, 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 puTi-
fies and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste material
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dosed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
er of sulphur We're often worse than
the disease, and cannot compare with
AZ lnc fn1 Osntf TNt,c,
of sulphur, of which Stuarts Calcium
Waters is undoubtedly the best and
most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
constipation and purify the blood in
a way that often surprises patient
and physician alike.
DR.. r. M. 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 when resulting from consti-
patton or malaria, l have been sur
prised at the results obtained from
Stuart's Calcium Waters. In patients
suffering from boils and pimpleS and
even deep-seated carbuncles, L have
repeatedly seen them dry UP and dis
appear IN TOUR OI I'VE DAYS, leaving
the skin clear and smooth. Although
Stuart's Calcium Waters is a pro-
prietary article, and sold by druggists,
and for that reason tabooed by many
physicians, yet I know of nothing so
safe and reliable for constipation, liver
and kidney troubles and especially in
all forms of skin disease as this rem
edy."
At any rate people who are tired
of pills, cathartics and so-called blood
purifiers, will find in Stuart's CAL
cium Waters far safer, more palat-
able and effective preparation.

FAIR NOTES.

4 t.i<- gL,-fs.' : -
Asked about the attendance at the
North Carolina State Fair, which
will be held in Raleigh this week,
beginning. Tuesday, October 18th, Mi.
Ashley Horne, President, said yeSter-
day that from all reports. he looked
for record breaking crowd. He has
been i'm communication with all the
railroad authorities and has aSSur-
ances that every bit of motive power
available and every car that can be
obtained win be utilized to bring the
great crowds expected at the FAIR
Indeed much depends upon the raif-
roads ana Mr. Horne is assured of
their hearty cooperation in bringing
the crowds TO Raleigh.
what sort of an exhibit will you
SNOW the people at the Fair?' l asked
Secretary Pogue last night
Frankly 1 have been a little UNI
easy" said Mr.. Pogue. "for fear the
fact that the President is coming
would turn public attention so puch
in that direction that there, would be
some falling off of interest in the ex-
hibits and other features of the Fair.
| am therefore more than pleased
that the demand for space is larger
than at any previous Fair, the exhib-
it's of a character that will be Of
more general interest, and on the
whole you may say the EXHIBITS VIII
be so numerous and attractive that
we would feel sure of a large crowd
il the President was not going 10
honor us with his presence.
THE attractions will be such as to
please the old as we'll as the young
and will be of a model character.
We have been careful tCNsee to 1T
that persons who-- come to the Fair
viii have plenty of healthy amuse-
ments."
Look ont for pick-pockets at the
Fair. Reports come from Greensboro
that the gentry" did good business
there. They always infect Raleigh
during Fair Week and are rarely cap
tured The thing for visitors to do is
not to wear their jewelry or carry
any money with them except what
they need The man who carries
roll of bills in a big crowd ought to
have a guardian appointed.
Raleigh will be one whole inn dur
ing Fair week. Nearly every nome
will be full of guests or boarders. Par
ties coming should apply to the In,
formation Bureau, which will give all
information free of cost.

THEY WILL DO THE "RooTINc"
FOR COURT HOUSE NINE ON
THURSDAY AFTERNOON
Every Precaution Taken to Prevent
Injury to the Ball Players
Band Will Play


Realizing that good and effective
roofing is very essential point in
winning ball games, the Court House
Gang has levied an assessment on
every county official around the court
house for the purpose of securing suf-
ficient funds to employ a gang of
| "rooters" for the game that will be
played with the Married Men" on
Thursday afternoon. This morning
Captain Otto Frank engaged about 200
small boys to boost for his nine,
and he is now putting in overtime in
teaching them the yell that has been
adopted for the county officials. 1t
runs like this:
"Rah! Rah! Rah!! J!
Morrow, Struthers john McCawH
The boys are becoming very adept
in shouting the words, but are not yet
up to the standard that is desired by
the captain. He announced today that
by Thursday his "rooters" would have
the YEN down to fine point, and when
the game is opened that afternoon the
kids will be turned loose. Each boy
will also be supplied with an instru-
ment that will assist in making noise
and the patrons Of the game may ex-
pect a treat in the line of boosting"
no Mo
der for an additional supply of saw
dust, which is to be banked aroun ]
each of the bases so that the big fat
men of the Married Mems" team will
not injure themselves when sliding to
the bases. All the drug stores nave
been called upon to furnish a good sup
ply of arnica and linament for the
players, and Chief Metz has agreed to
have the fire department on the
grounds to subdue any Fireworks that
may possibly be commenced by the
teams when they WELD the clubs.
An extra number of special police
will be provided by Chief Brown to as
sist in keeping the crowds off the
fence and to keep the ball field clear
from all distractions, except the ball
players.
The Walla Walla Military band mas
been engaged and during the afternoon
will render a choice program of popu-
lar music.
AS large number of the merchants
have consented to close their stores
during the afternoon and there will be
a half holiday, it is expected that the
largest crowd of the season viii be re-
corded. The fact that the proceeds of
the game are to be given to the Y.
M. c. A. building fund insures a large
attendance.
