Various methods have been suggested
frbm time TO time for rRmedying what might
der called the greatest and perhaps the ONLY
eRtl OF the misunderstanding at danRerol rs
rate Of speed-but It seems that no one has
attempted 20 analyZe the speed situation and
IL relation TO legislative control Of the opera
ton OF a~utonooties, with a view to protect
ing the public against danger, says the Horse
Mss Ago. We concede that a large n 'mber OF
INJURIES have resulted from fast driving. We
f9pst also admit that the same limit OF speed
may not be fair for all places. The Legislatures
ave recoginz'd this by providing a maxi
mum rate OF speed In built up communities
and " o greater rate In the open conn
try, Tut there are other conditions which
should be met by the Legislatures, with a
ytrw OF dolne ~t,rstice to both the automobile
ist sn1 the public.
I'VE might call the conditions about to be
discussed extrane Gus conditions, and not
local or permant mt. For example, the physi-

The rec ders of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that sci
ence has been able to cure in all
its stages, and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure IS the only
positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall S
Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patti
ent strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature
in doing is work. The proprie-
tors have SO much faith in it's cur
alive powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that
it fails to cure. Send for list OF
testimonials.

A Large Timber Land Sale.

Last week E V Duplevis sold his
large holdings On tie East Branch
of Greenbrier river in Pocahontas
Co., W Va. to Flint, Ewing & Ston-
err, of Pittsburg, price pail being
about 100000. In July last Mr..
Dunlevie purchased these lands ard
begun building the town of Dun
leyie. about two miles north of
Travellers Repose, and extending a
railway from the CSC. to his tim
Der, much of which lay over the
crest Of Allegheny mountain, in
Highland Co, Va. lie was build
ing also large and up-to-date saw
mill. Everything was on the most
approved plans, and his quarters
were superb. His home at his mill
vas a 14-room house with hot and
cold water and electric lights. The
purchase price and the cost OF inn
provements aggregated about
100000; so that he has cleaned up
IN less than ten months the neat
sum of 100000. This is one of
the largest deals ever made in the
county. but it is not the largest
which will be carried through be-
fore the summer is ended. 1t was
reported last week that lDness y
Co had sold the land recently pur-
chased by them on Elk river at a
price nearing a million dollars.
This was premature, as the deal
has not yet been closed. This
leaves the Dunlevie sale the largest
one yet to take place since Col Jno
II McGraw sold to the Pacahontas
Tanning Go. 100000 acres several
years ago -Staunton Spectator.

Senator BaiIey's Prayer

In closing his speech in the SEN
ate. Senator Bailey INDUCED in
in some reflections aside from the
legal phase and merits of his argu-
ment, and which all can indorse.
They are worth repeating. He
said: 81 would feel that we were
reaching an era in this devoted
land where men are to be judged
by how they act and what they
think, rather than by what they
have; when intellect, and not for.
tune, when conduct, more than
birth, should be the measure of our
esteem. and when an honest fame
should be the goal toward which
our ambitious youth should be
taught to toll and hope.
"Mr President, | am one of those
who believe that such time may
come-of course, | am not so SIM
pie. minded as to dream that the
old days of small fortunes and
great contentment will ever come
again to bless the land, but | do
believe in the coming of better
day than this, when the man who
knows that he is just and honest
will feel that he is happier in his
circumstances than the man whose
rickes have beer corrupted through
injustice.
II pray for the time to come
when we shall have a new stand
ard to guide our children; when we
shall teach them that justice is bet
ter than rower, and lead them into
the ennobling faith that truth
shall conquer falsehood in every
home where peace abides and in
every home where men are free.
Under influence Of higher ideals
and more unselGsh aspirations all
hate and envy will vanish from our
minds, and the only evil thought
which still must vex us will be the
malace which The bad shall forever
feel toward the good. When con-

Notice To Teachers,

Tn view of the short time given
ia which to make preparation to
teach the subjects which haye re-
Gently been added to the list of
branches to be taught in the pub
lie schools, first and second grade
certificates expiring with this year
may be extended one year on the
endorsement of the division super
intendent and the clerks of the
district school boards for the diyis-
ion in which the holders of such
certificates wish to teach. 1t being
necessary that the new branches
shall be taught in the schools next
year, preference will be shown in
extending certificates to those
teachers who have sought to ac.
quaint themselves with these
branches by attending the County
Normal or some other school in
which these subjects are taught.
