Young Man with New Theory Says ALI De-
Dends on Stomach.

L. T.. Cooper's theory regarding the
human stomach Is rapidly becoming a
topic of universal discussion. Cooper
claims that the human stomach has
become chronically aeranged by mod
ern conditions, and t4lat sickness gen.
orally is the result.
In a recent inter..isI, while intro
ducing his medicine /, leading city,
Mr.. Cooper said: .'rTH-sra ic4 Just one

eral health, ald lat is hy building u

jority Of Americans today have weak,
f1abby, distended stcmachs. This has
been caused by many generations OF
overlooking and lack Of exercise, until
today the entire civilized race is af-
fected. This is the true cause of most
of the ill health CT today. Little can
be done to relieve it until the stomach
is once more brought back to normal
conditions.

A Very Enormous Hog.
Oxford Public Ledger.

oX1Orl 1uDHc Ledger
When Mr.. E. B. Cozart was in the
office the other day he was asked
about the enormous hog that he owns.
Mr.. Cozart is preparing to take a
tripandis mapping out his itinerary.
He will first exhibit the mOnstrosity
in Durham, where be will remain for
week. He will from there travel
South to New Orleans, Atlanta, Mont
gomery and other cities on the
route. Coney Island will he his next
point and after completing the allot-
ed time there, Mr. Cozart Journeys to
Niagara Falls and over IN Canada rs
far us Toronto.
Mr.. Cozart has been in eleven States
with his hog, having spentsi six months
at the jamestown Exposition last
year.
The animal weighs / AGO pounds
and is OF prodigious dimensions. He
is 8 feet, four inches in girth and
measures 8 feet, 2 inches from tip to
tip. TO give some idea of the vast
proportions. Mr. Cozart says that
his hogship is three inches larger in
girth than the largest horse known
to be in existence in the country,
which is the Moroccan horse now on
exhibition in Toronto, Canada. And
wonderful to say he has achieved ali
his distinction in the space Of 3 short
years, which is the animals age. He
certainly ought to be proud of him
self, for he won Il geld medal at the
Jamestown Exposition.
Mr.. Cozart says that the hog is a
very small eater, and is fed on meal
and apples, with a few sweet potat oes
to diversity his diet. He seems to
thrive on that bill of fare, for he has
never been sick. In spite OF his cor
pulency he is able to get about re-
markably we'll.

State Gets Along Now While The
Governor is Chasing Around
After Another Job.

If elected governor, would Mr..
Kitchin throw aside the duties of
that office, and while drawing the
salary and occupying the mansion,
devote all his time to running for
another office?-New Bern Sun.
He probably would, if anything of
the future is to be OWNED from the
past, but what difference would that
make? We have not heard of any
serious embarrassment to Congress
because he was chasing job some
where else; and the State of North
Carolina would no doubt manage to
get along just as well.-Enfield Prog

Defeat Of Prohibition Would Not
Affect Territory Now Dry.
Green vile Reflector.

Greenville Reflector.
Some people nave wrong idea OF
the coming prohibition election.
They think that if prohibition is de-
feated it will kill all the temperance
laws in the State, close the dis
pensaries and permit bar rooms to
open again. This is a mistake. If
prohibition is defeated the Watts
law and all local prohibition laws
will remain Just as they are now, and
no saloon can be opened in any pro-
hibited territory So those who are
opposing prohibition in the hope OF
seeing saloons come back had just
as well change their minds.

Virginia Would Profit by Prohibition
in North Carolina.
Richmond Times-Dispatch.


Although. as can be readily imag-
ined, the rwo extremes are not actu-
ated By the same principles and de-
sires, wholesale liquor dealers in
Richmond and other Virginia points
are uniting with the Temperance lead
ers of North Carolina in the hope that
the State will adopt prohibition in
the election to be held on May Goth.
Reports from various Carolina towns
indicate that the prohibition wave is
not as strong as it was a month or
six weeks ago. One reason for this is
the fact that though many places
are dry, large sums are still being
sent to Virginia for the product that
fires and delights, the result being
that liquor is consumed as usual,
with none of the financial benefits be-
ing left at home
Not only will the Richmond whole
salers control the North Carolina
trade, but they viii reach as far as
South Carolina, that State being now
supplied mainly from Salisbury, n. c.
Down in Georgia it was claimed that
soft drink people were the most ar
dent advocates of prohibition, as
sisting ablyin bringing it about. If
the matter was left, therefore, to Yir-
ginia dealers, they would hardly be
expected to fight prohibitioni in North
Carolina when it would increase their
bank accounts and give them mo-
nopoly in a territory which they have
touched heretofore only in spots.
Men who claim to know say that
the city of Raleigh alone will pay
$500, 900 a year for its liquor, nearly
all OF which will be shipped from
Richmond and Norfolk. Should this
principle apply to other towns in
Carolina the profit to local shippers
would be greater in proportion to
the thirst.

MORTGAGE FILED
BY TURKEYFOOT CO,

Akron, Dec. A $500, 900 first mort
gage deed has been filed with the
county recorder given by the Turkey
foot Traction company to the Dollar
Savings & Trust company, of Youngs-
town. This Is an important step to
the closer connection of the chain of
lakes south of the city of Akron and
the network of trolley lines leading
out of here.
The mortgage is given in such a
large amount that future bond issues
will not have to be secured by second
or third mortgages. The Youngstown
bank is named as trustee. Bonds of
the new company will at once be float
ed. The mortgage covers all fran
chises, rights of way now held, or to
be acquired by the Turkeyfoot Trac-
ton company.
For over four years Thomas L.
Childs has been working in the inter-
ests of an electric line between Ak
ron and Massillon and connecting Ne
state lakes and reservoirs with the
city. He is president of the new COM
pany and Charles ]. Carey secretary.
1t is the plan to start in by build
ing the portion of the line between
here and Turkeyfoot lake, extending
the line on to Massillon later.

NEW REPUBLICAN DAILY
PROPOSED FOR SALEM

Salem, O., Dec. Am effort is be-
ing made here to launch another Re-
publican newspaper, solicitations for
stock subscriptions now being made
by the promoters, the shares being
800 each, and the object being to sell
200 shares.
The venture is the second of the
kind in the past year, an option hav-
ing been taken by the promoters last
spring for go days on the Salem Her
aid for $4,000 but the attempt fell
through on account of inability to
raise sufficient stock subscriptions.
Ex-Postmaster DR.. F. T. Miles is a
leading factor in the new enterprise
as well as his former deputy, Hiram X.
Green, who will be business manager
of the new concern when it is launch
ed and for which an editor will be Sc
cured from some other place. G. Very
Sharp and several other local repre-
sentative politicians are active in
floating the new deal in which it is
also reported an effort is being made
to get county officials to take stock
with view to getting in line for the
county printing.
IL 10 lhaJ III duulllOh W
the enterprise being in hope of re-
turning large dividends on the in
vestment, the new publication would
be used as a weapon to be directed
against the News In hopes of put
ting it out of business on account of
personal feelings of several of the
prime movers against the present Re
publican papers management, who
was instrumental in securing the ap-
pointment of w. S. Atchison as post
master, who assumed the Office last
Tuesday
About $1,000 worth of stock has al
ready been subscribed, a part of the
subscribers being those who were In
terested in the former proposition to
buy out the Democratic publication
and which it was for a while thought
of making an Independent paper.
