THE FAIRMoNT BANKS.

The news of the failure of three
Chicago banks naturally makes one
think of similar institutions in his
home town. 1t is source of great
satisfaction to know that the banks
of Fairmont are all run on sound and
conservative principles and each and
every one is perfectly safe. No city
in the State can boast of better banks
or more accommodating bankers than
Fairmont. For the past twelve to
eighteen months, owing largely to
suspension of work on the B. and N.
railroad, a great deal Of Fairmont
capital has been tied up in real estate
and various other investments on
which no money could be realized.
Through this strain, the banks have
tided, many business men over safe
ly, and the banks are all in the very
best condition at present, fact of
which every citizen ought to feel
proud

RULERS OF THE WORLD.
Meat Eating Nations Are the Leaders
in Every Branch of Human
Achievements,

The ruling nations of the world are
meat eaters and history records that
they always have been.
Vegetarians and food cranks may
explain this in any way they choose,
but the facts remain that the Amer
leans, English, French, Russians and
Germans are meat-eating nations, and
they are also the most energetic and
most progressive.
The principal food of the heroic
Boer soldier, known as Biltong, is
sort of dried beef, affording a great
deal of nOuriShment in a highly con-
centrated form.
The weak races of people are the
rice eating Chinese, Hindoos, and ST.
amese, regarded since the dawn of
history as non-progressive, Supersti-
tious and inferior physically and men
tally to the meat-eating nations who
dominate them.
The structure of the teeth plainly
indicates that human beings should
subSist upon a variety of food, meat,
fruit and grains, and it is unhygienic
to confine ones diet to any one OF
those classes to the exclusion of
another
Meat, is the most concentrated and
most easily digested food but our
manner of living is often so unnatural
that the digestive organs refuse to
properly digest meat, eggs and similar
nutritious and wholesome food, Uu. it
is not because such food is unwhole
some, but the real reason is that the
stomach lacks, from disease or weak
ness, some necessary digestive ele-
ment: hence arising indigestion anu,
later on, chronic dyspepsia
Nervous people should eat plenty of
meat, convalescents should make meat
the principal food, Woodworking
people have to do SO, and BRAIN work
erS and office men should eat, not so
much meat, but at least once day,
and to insure it's perfect digestion one
or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
should be taken after each meal, be-
cause they supply the peptones. dias-
tase and fruit acids, lacking in every
case of stomach trouble.
Nervous dyspepsi, catarrh of stom-
ach, gaStritis, sour stomach, gas ana
acidity are only different names Tor
Indigestion, the failure to ulgest
wholesome food, and the use OF
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets cures tnen
all because, by affordlng perfect dl-
gesticn, the stomach has chance to
rest ana recover its haturdl Tone anu
vigor
Stuart's dyspepsia Tablets is the
| real household medicine; it is as safe
and pleasant for the stomach ache of
the baby as it is for the imperfect
digestion of its grand sire.
They are not cathartic, but di-
gestive, and no pill habit can ever fol-
low their use; the only hablt Stuart
Tablets induce is the habit of good
digestion and consequently good
| health.

OUARAN |NE LIFTED
In Five North Carolina
Counties.
To Take Effect in December. Total
Number of Counties Free From
Federal Cattle Quarantine in
This State Now 27.

State Veterinarian TAFT Butler an
nounced yesterday that the Federal
cattle quarantine in North Carolina
had been lifted from five counties in
the western part of the State, making
the total number of counties in the
free area now 22. These counties are
Surry, Alexander, Iredell, Davie, and
that part of Rowan north and west of
the main line of the Southern Rail-
way. The order will go into effect
early in December. This great forward
step is probably due to the visit of
DR.. Butler to the National Department
of Agriculture at Washington. from
where he has just returned
The original number of counties

free from the quarantine was 16 in
1902. and since the beginning of the
quarantine eleven counties have been
added to the free list.
Object of the Quarantine.
The object of the quarantine is 20

fever (distemper). Those, interested in
the cattle industry and the removal of
the most serious obstacle to its de-
the fever tick. will note
with satisfaction the. increase in the
free or unuuarantined area of the
State. The removal of quarantine is
the result of the campaign of tick
determination which has been carried
on by the North Carolina Department
of Agriculture, and is a gratifying
success. as it not only demonstrates
the feasibility of exterminating the
fever ticks in all "stock law sections,
but the small cost at which the work
has been done also proves that it is
easy, practicable and profitable.
Dr. Butler said yesterday:
Those who have given such mat
ters consideration know that an en-
barge on a free exchange of the pro-
ducts of any industry is the most Sc
rious obstacle to it's development, and
it is safe to- state that the present un-
developed condition of the Southern
cattle industry is, to a very great ex-
tent. the result Of the ravages of the
fever tick and the attendant Federal
quarantine restrictions. T oreach the
best markets our cattle must go north
Of the quarantine line, and must be
at once or go back home.
The buyers know this and pay from
-4c. to 1-2c. per pound less for them
han for cattle of the same quality

superintendent Joyner makes a
special appeal to the teachers to raise
the amount of money necessary for
the Wiley Memorial. He says:
Every public school teacher ought
to count it a privilege as well as a
sacred duty to cooperate heartily
with the Wiley Monument Committee
in completing this year the fund for
the erection of a lasting memorial to
Calvin H. Wiley. 1t can be easily
completed by a united effort. 1t Will
be little less than an act of ingratitude
to a great unselfish benefactor of the
children and the teachers if every
public school does not send contri-
button for this worthy purpose"
The amount on hand is $3.50, and
if each public school scholar in the
State gives one penny a sum will be
raised amounting to $5,933.S7.
