Biltmore. N. C., August 1.-(Speeial.) There are two classes of travellers who come to the Land of the Sky. The win ter tourist arrives in December and remains until April or May. The sum- mer visitors come in June and stay un- til the shores of the French Broad are fringed with brilliant foliage. They see the real beauty and enjoy finer opportunities for exploring this beau tiful region.
 It is the most cosmopolitan of trav- elers that fill the hotels. The northern visitor comes to this region, entering 1t at Salisbury where from his car window he gets glimpses of the Blue Ridge and from the summit of which his train, rushing through the Swan nanoa tunnel, traverses a route of con- tinuous charm, giving him that won derful view of the western slope of the Blue Ridge.
 It is in winter that the northern tourist turns to the Land of the Sky. In summer the southerners take pos session. It Is a large territory, some thing over 60o0 square miles, and every part of 1t famed as one of the fairest regions in America.
 Official records prove the equability of the temperature: May, GA degrees; June. 709 degrees; July, TAI degrees, August, 72. ? degrees; October, 55.S de- grees. Over 80 mountain peaks from 5000 to 5000 feet above sea level, with 43 exceeding 5000 feet, 23 being taller than Mount Washington. and with Mount Mitchell overlapping Mount Washington by over 400 feet. are some

takes on an aspect of melancholy or look of merriment like a human gaze.
 "Well,"I anwer. ''the moods of my mountains are like lovely woman when she smiles. like she who sorrows at the bier of her child, like the first awakening to love: their forests are full of haunt ing, sweet melody"
 And" continues my traveller, in an ecstacy of feeling, q see from my win dow that horizon which extends to the left as far as the hills of Chaillot, and en- ables me to distinguish the Arc de Tri- omphe the Seine river of glory, and it's bridges, the ash trees of the Tuilleries. the Louvre of the Renaissance-all the old and venerable part of Paris with it's towers and spires; all that Is my life; it is myself; and 1 would be nothing but for all those things which are reflected in me through my thousand varying shades of thought, inspiring me and animating me.
 That" he concludes N''is why love Paris with an immense love!'
 I shall not try to reply to this out burst He has right to think what he pleases about the Seine. The only thing that regret is that cannot rise to the same eloquent heights of expression as look toward the Swananoa, spanned by its bridges, the white roads winding about it's shores, the tints of the trees mirrored in it's depths, and the gray mists lifting from my mountain.
 I might plagiarize; but even that would be too imperfect. Some day there will come to these mountains some one able not only to feel their spell but to write of tito bring out their poignant human cry that can be heard in legends thar will compel and hold the hearing of all who have felt in some measure the weird poetic beauty of this land

that characterizes the school in every par ticuar. The cover, a heavy Japanese paper is a pretty cream color, deco rated with narrow gold bands, and the in- sgnia of the school, a blue shield orna- mented with a single sheaf of wheat. Within are views of the building, both in- terior and exterior which show to ad- vantage one of the most ornamental as well as one of the most conspicuous buildings on Highland avenue. A list of the faculty shows names of women known throughout the south for the high est culture. Miss Willie M. Allen and Miss Beth Allen have been leaders in the intellectual life of the community for years, and they as well as Miss Ruth, Allen, have hosts of friends in Birming- ham and the state who have marked with the deepest satisfaction the successful ca reer of Margaret Allen school since It's organization five years ago.

Death of Mrs. Ed Stivison.

Mrs. Edward Stiverson on East
Hun ter street, died on Wednesday
afternoon of last week after q
long and painful illness of cancer.
For over two years everything
that medical skill could do was
done for the patient but the in
sidious disease had too strong u
hold. She was aged abont 40
years and moved from the Clear
Creek section to Logan with her
husband about one year ago. She
was a daughter of the late Edward
Hiles, who resided in Monday
Creek township, Perry county.
She is survived by the sorrowing
husband, the mother, brother,
Marion Hiles, of Perry county,
Mrs. Noah Stiverson, of Marion
township, and Miss M. Hiles, who
lives with her mother on the old
home farm in Perry county, be-
sides many friends and relatives.
The funeral occurred from the U.
B. Church Sunday afternoon, Rev.
Willis officiating.

Traction Line.

The building of the Hartman
electric road from Columbus to
Washington G. H. and the ex-
tension of the Seioto Valley Trac-
tion line through the Saltcreek
Valley has awakened widespread
interest.
Mass meetings are being talked
of at Kingston, Adelphia and
Laurelville to further the project
of building the SciotO Valley line
on to the Rock House. In speak
ing of the enterprise citizen of
Hallsville said to the Circleville
Union Herald:
cit is an offer directly concern
ing all in the village and country.
1t will advance the earning
capacity of farm and garden,
dairy and poultry yard 1t will
place our merchandise in direct
communication with the cities and
markets at reduced freightage. "
The surveyors of the Hartman
traction company Friday evening
finished the calculations for the
building of line from Columbus
to Washington.
The record Republican says:
"The opinion is that if the line
is built over the route that meas
ures up the closest to the qualifi-
cations it would very likely be
built over the Columbus pike
route.
"However, there seems to be
some talk at prssent of new plans
for getting into this city and
reaching Columbus through Circle
vile by way of the Seioto Valley
Traction line. This would open
field for business especially since
the Scioto Valley line expects to
construct new line over the
Karshner roadbed into Lancaster.
This would make the business of
Hartman line greater out of this
city, as not only would it be
possible to reach Columbus, but
also Circleville, ChiIlicothe and
Lancaster by traction. The line
in this case would probably be
built over the Circleville pike
through New Holland, and this
district is thickly populated along
the entire route.
"This it is said would be u
cheaper route of construction.

MAY WIPE IT
OFF THE EARTH
Home Made Treatment To
Overcome Rheumatism.

When an eminent authority an
nounced in the Scranton (Pa.
Times that he had found new
way to treat that dread American
disease, Rheumatism, with Just
common, everyday drugs found in
any drug store, the physicians
were slow indeed to attach much
Importance to his claims. This
was only few months ago. To-
day nearly every newspaper in the
country, even the metropolitan
dailies, is announcing 1T and the
splendid results achieved. 1t is SO
simple that any one can prepare it
at home at small cost. 1t is made
up as follows: Get from any good
prescription pharmacy Fluid Ex-
tract Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparllla,
three ounces. Mix by shaking in
bottle and take in teaspoonful
doses after each meal and at bed
TINA. These are all simple in
gradients, making an absolutely
harmless home remedy at little
cost.
Rheumatism, as every one knows,
is symptom of deranged kidneys.
1t is condition produced by the
failure of the kidneys to properly
filter or strain from the blood the
uric acid and other matter which,
if not eradicated, either IN the
urine or through the skin pores,
remains in the blood, decomposes
and forms about the joints and
muscles, causing the untold suffer
ing and deformity of rheumatism.
This prescription is said to be a
splendid healing, cleansing and
invigorating tonic to the kidneys,
and gives almost immediate relief
in all forms of bladder and urinary
troubles and backache. He also
warns people in leading New
York paper against the discrimi-
nate use of many patent medicines.
