National Magazine for June.

The covers OF the last few numbers of
the National have been strikingly beauti-
full, but none are more dainty or pleasing
than the June design which is by W. G.
Upham and is printed in three colors,
and typifes the momentous period in
the lives ofstudious youths all through
the land this seaon OF "Graduation."
The Lamson Studio furnishes two
frontispecies which are printed in colors
and they deserve front rank as works
of progressive art. "Class Day at Har-
ward" from the Chickering Studio, is a
stiking panorama photograph, and
these illustrations are supplemented
throughout the entire magazine with a
great variety of half-tone illustrations.
The Nationals editor, Joe Mitchell
Chapple, leads his readers through inter-
esting journeys at the Nationl Capitol,
and his Happy Habit in Graduation
Days is one of the best things that has
appeared in this department since it was
inaugurated.
The second installment of that charm
ing serial story: ga Romance Of Ar
lington House." by Sarah 4. Reed ap-
pears in this number, and there are a
number of short stories.
Herbert 0. McCrillis contributes an il
Illustrated article entitled, "Britons Who
Fought at Bunker HILL" The Home
Department contains it's usual number
of helpful hints, while there are number
of poems rejecting beautiful sentiment.
The National is becoming better with
each and every number.

Howe's Moving Pictures.

1.-The best show of the kind that
has ever been to Henderson," This
was what was said of Lyman H.
Howe's moving picture show at the
Grand Theatre Monday night. And it
was literally true without exaggera-
ton. Good as Mr. Howe's exhibitions
have been heretofore-and they have
always been in class by themselves,
without an equal or a rival-all for
mer efforts are eclipsed in the pres
ent exhibition. The announcement
that Mr.. Howe would return again
next season was greeted by vocifer-
Gus applause, but our people must not
expect too much. It looks as the
limit has been reached. But Lyman
ii. Howe always has some pleasant
surprises for his patrons and there's
no telling what he will spring on
them another season.

Stood the Test Again.

Gibraltar paints stood the test of
fire all right, but rain knocked out
the exhibition Mr.. T. A. Gould had
advertised to give Saturday after
noon. But not to be outdone by a
little thing like too much humidity
when his paints are calculated to
withstand the trying ordeal of fire
and sun heat. he decided to remain
over and have it out Monday after
noon.
As stated last week the little house
had been repainted and restored to
something like it original condition
after the severe test to which it had
been previously subjected, and Mr..
Gould was anxious to demonstrate
the result OF a second burning. The
second test if anything was more sue
cessful than the first. 1t was witness
ed by a large crowd, greater than on
the Monday night previous, posi-
bly,, and after the fire had burned a
sufficient length OF time when the
flames were extinguished the house
did not seem to be damaged but lit
tie more than it was by going through
the first fire.
Again Gibraltar paints fully es-
tablished the claim that they are
fire and heat resisting, and con-
sequently durable and economical.
The Watkins Hardware Company,
agents for Gibraltar paints in Hen
derson, are prepared to fill all orders
for roof or house paints, in large or
small quantities.

Home from Panama.

Mr.. George Buchan who is at home
from Panama on a visit to his par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs VIM Buchan, and
talks entertaingly about the work
on the canal, the colossal ma gintude
OF the enterprise, the progress made,
etc. He has been down there about
two years as engineer in charge OF
steam shovel and says it is mistake
to suppose that even a few of the
thousands of men employed on the
work are loafing on the Government.
1t is no sinecure they have and they
are making time and mony tell in
what they are doing declares Mr.. Bu-
chan.

Rowland Case Set for Friday.

The DR.. Rowland case is set for a
hearing Friday Chemist Withers an
nOuncing that he will be ready to re-
port by that time. Mrs Rowla nd's
case was postponed until next Mon
day, but if a. report is ready to be
made at an earlier date it may be
taken up tomorrow or next day.
The length of time required by the
chemists to determine the presence
or absence of poison in the stomachs
OF little David Austin Rowland and
Engineer Strange is held by many to
be favorable to DR.. Rowland and his
wife. II there had been the presence
Of poison in unmistakable quantities
the fact could have been ascertained
in much shorter time they contend.
But in a case of this kind where hui
man life is at stake the greatest care
and thOrOughness is necessary in
making an analysis, and haste must
needs be made slowly.

Chronic Cases Cured in Hen
derson.

1t is easy enough to be pleasant
when life goes on like song, but
LIES songs are all dirges to a chronic
dyspeptic.
Talk is cheap, facts alone satisfy
such conditions. DR.. Richards Dys-
pepsia Tablets are the vital facts of
cure in such cases, and the proofs are
right in your own city as the follow
ing illustrates. Miss Rebecca E. Crews
of Henderson, N. c., says:
Mrs. R. g. Bobbitt went to kerner-
McNair's drug store few weeks ago
and procured a bottle of DR.. Richards
Dyspepsia Tablets for me. | had been
afflicted for a long time with Dyspepsia
and got so bad that could eat only the
lightest food. | was hungry all the time
but did not dare to satisfy my craving.
At times l would grow faint and it was
difficult to keep from falling. The least
exertion of any kind played me out en-
tirely. Very nervous. AS | said before,
| got your medicine and took it accord
ing to directions, with the result that l
am improved so rapidly that | am
astonished, for l could not believe such a
thing possible. l have not been bothered
since l began your treatment and can
only praise and wish success for your
remedy.

"Do This One Thing Wei"
Greensboro Record.

Greensboro Record.
Napoleon once said that God was
on the side OF the army of greatest
number, best generalship and heavi-
est artillery, and the same statement
applies to advertisers. The man
who puts the strongest selling talk
into his advertisement, that drives
home the conviction hard, is the
man that's going to win. Everything
operates in favor OF the honest and
persistent advertiser. The public
forms it's opinion from the way you
present the goods. Do this concisely
and convincingly, just as if you were
talking with your buyer in the store.
Then you will have made one
long stride toward success. Lord
Bacon once said: "The secret OF sue
cess lies not in doing many things,
but in doing a few things well. "
Advertising is the vital OF every
mercantile business. ''Do this one
thing well' and get it before the
eyes OF your patrons in the surest
and most inexpensive way possible
in the columns OF your local news

Their Advertising Pays Them.

Sending in copy for change of their
advertisement this week, the Prize
Davis Company, facy grocers, say
this:
"Please cut out our locals on White
House coffee. You have helped us to
build up u big trade on White House
coffee. Many thanks"
That is the testimony of those who
Notwithstanding pays. The first
requisite is to have something the
people want-an article of merit-and
then tell them about it by advertis-
ing the fact in a newspaper that the
people read. The experience of the
Pirie-Davis Company is gratifying
but not surprising.
