manlike dignity and poise. Pictur-

forget to note that he is a graduate
of high class American university,
a student in German universities
ana a man of wide travel and cul-
ture His speech against the Aldrich
bill was comprehensive and convinc.
ing. All that can be done in this
brief correspondence Is to note few
of the points he raised. For example:
The bill fails TO provide any plan
of Insurance to deposltors. and there
fore will not maintain confidence.
This is Of course an endorsement of
Mr.. Bryan's insurance plan which
has been adopted In oklahoma.
State banks, trust companies and
saving banks which hold two-thirds
of the banking capital OF The country
will not benefit by the measure.

Woman Beat Two Men.

woman beat two hardware dealers in

Devoe salesman tried his best to get
those men to sell Devoe lead-and-zinc in
that bright town; and failed. Reluc-
family took Mrs Z. R. Bowan, druggist.
They said they couldn't sell paint for
more than $125 gallon. Mrs. Bow
man can. She has sold about all the
paint that has been sold there since.
She knew Devoe; had sold his artists
materials Had some sense and force,
besides; she easily learned that cheap is
dear paint, and told the people.
Mr.. Burt Young bought a gallon Devoe
for rooms that had always taken gal

Mr.. John Hanna, grocer, thought it
expensive before he bought it; brought
back nearly half of his paint, and said ii
was the cheapest job he ever had.

Watermelon Rind Preserves.

This being the season OF water
melons and preserving the following
recipe for making watermelon rind
preserves, which was contributed to
the household department OF the
Progressive Farmer. is timely:
Dear Aunt Mary: Here is my recipe
for making watermelon rind preserves.
Cut all the red from the inside and peel
the green from the outside of the rind
with a sharp knife. Then cut into small
pieces and boil in clear water until tender.
then take out and drain the water from
them. Next weigh them. To every
pound of the rind use one and one half
pounds OF sugar. Make a syrup OF the
sugar and water and drop the rind into
the boiling syrup and into this slice
lemons. Use two lemons to a gallon
of preserves. Boil until the rind looks
clear and the syrup is thick. Place in
Jars while hot and make sure to have
sufficient syrup..to cover them, and then

Will Take a Season of Rest.

Mr.. A. S. Davis gives up his place
at DOrsey's drug store and will take
a season of rest for the benefit of his
health. His plans are not fully ma
tured as yet but it is probable that
he will retire to his mothers home in
Granville county and take things
quietly or engage in farming. What
he mostly seeks is rest and outdoor
life for awhile, too close confinement
in the store not agreeing with him.
We shall part with Mr.. Davis re-
luctantly-as does Mr.. Dorsey, with
whom he has been a long time-and
his friends hope he will continue to
spend much of his time in Henderson.
Mr.. Davis is a splendid man and he
has q large number of friends and
acquaintance whose good wishes he
has for renewed health and increas-
ing prosperity.
The departure OF Mr.. Davis from
Henderson would be all the more re-
gretabfe because it would mean the
loss of his good wife to the social
life of the town also.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO,
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the
blood. They work night and day.
When healthy they remove about
500 grains of impure matter daily,
when unhealthy some part of this
impure matter is left in the blood.
This brings on many diseases and
symptoms-pain in the back, head
ache, nervousness, hot, dry skin,
rheumatism, govt, gravel, disorders
of the eyesight and hearing, dizzi-
ness, irregular heart, debility, drow-
siness, dropsy, deposits in the urine,
etc. But ii YOU keep the filters right
you will have no trouble with your
kidneys:
Miss {. D. Jenkins, 327 Montgom-
cry street, Henderson, n. c., SAYS:
Il recommend Doan's Kidney Pills

panied by sharp twinges in the region
of my kidneys, and on some occa-

Mrs. Joe Person Has Adventurous
Trim.

We recently read with much inter-
est letter from Mrs. Joe Person
published in the Charlotte Observer,
giving an account of her travels and
experiences in the West-a visit to
the homes OF the Pueblo Indians in
New Mexico and Arizona, the petri-
fed forests, etc. but we did not know
the object of her trip to be other
than sight seeing and pleasure seek
ing. Her sister, Mrs. Lucy NJ. Beard.
of Hickory. was with her and from
the way Mrs. Person wrote they
seemed to be having the time of their
lives. The Charlotte Chronicle ex-
plains the mission of these ladies to
the Pacific slope country and Incl
dentally relates the circumstances OF
a perilOus adventure which they ex-
perienced, as follows:
Mrs. Joe Person and her sister, who
lives in Hickory. have had an adven-
turous trip in California. 1t was a
search for a brothers grave. Years ago,
their brother died in that country from
eating poisonous mushrooms and they
had always intended, when they should
have money enough ahead. to go to Cal
iforn:a and find his grave. So n few
weeks ago they set out on the journey.
In the course of time they arrived in that
section of California where their brother
had lived and after long and disap-
pointing series of questioning, they final
~ located people who knew him, and
best of all. a friend who knew where he
was buried. To reach the spot required
a rough and rugged mountain trip. and
for the journey they secured wagon
cite and team OF six horses. The ascent
was steep and narrow. very rough and
dangerous in places. At one point where
it was narrow and PERCEPTIONS an auto
mobile came bounding down the road to
meet them and disastrous collision ap-
peared inevitable. Mrs. Person and her
sister leaped from the wagon. They
were SO badly shaken up and injured
that they We're forced to stay in u hotel
a week under. medical attention before
the journey could be resumed. They
finally succeeded in reaching the place
where their brother was buried. 1t is a
place of great natural beauty, an oasis
in a desert. They could not bring the
body home, but they built a brick wall
ar Dund the grave, replaced the marker
by a headstone and left their brother to
his long rest in the far-away country.
their hearts thankful that their hands
touches to his resting place. Mrs. Per
son ought to write a book on her expe-
riences and adventures in the land OF the
Aztecs. 1t would prove as good seller
as her famous Remedy.

Not a North Carolinian.

In noting the coming of John Rob-
ston Union Republican says:
'In this connection it is interesting to
many Old-timers to note that the report
that John Lowlow, the well known
clown, who, by the way, halls from this
State, was dead. is not true. A gentle
man saw him at Chattanooga, July 29th
with the above circus. Lowlow sent his
regards to friends here. He is ageing
fast, but is in very good health. John
Lowlow is a gentleman as well as a fun
maker and will live long in the memory
of North Carolinians."
John Lowlow does not hail from
| this State-that is he is not a native
of North Carolina He is a native OF
Georgia, if we mistake nOt-is South
ern born at any rate. He was a
student at the University of North
Carolina and his stay there is re-
| called by some of our readers. The
late DR.. George A. Foote, OF Warren
ton, was a college mate of his and
there was always warm personal
friendship between the two. There
were Others who were there at the
same time but we are reminded Of
DR.. Foote particularly because as
long as he lived he would go hun.
