The Deep Breathing Cure.

A boy who was consumptive
and was rapidly going along the
road to the grave was taken in
hand by one who understood deep
breathing and the Importance of
proper masticaption of food, etc
He was made to understand pre-
cisely why deep breathing was
of such vital Importance and be
took a lively interest in his own
cure. He was fourteen years old.
In a very few weeks the change
was remarkable. He began to get
firm flesh on his poor little limbs,
his chest developed we'll and a
healthy color care into his
cheeks. His:eyes, which were cov-
cred with sites, became perfectly
clear from them, and IN three
months or lass there was nogsign of
consumption in him. I may say
he was treated once a week for
half an hour,-Pall Mall Gazette.

ONLY ONE BEST"
Salisbury People Credit Where Credit Is
Due,

People of Salisbury who suffer- with
sick kidneys and bad backs want a kid
ney remedy that can be depended
upon. The best is Doan's Kidney Pills,
a medicine for the kidneys only, made
from pure roots and herbs, and the
only one that is backed by cures in Sal
isbury. Here's Salisbury testimony:
John W. Glover, 1923 So. Long St.,
Salisbury, N G., says: SIN my estima-
ton Doan's Kidney Pills is the best
kidney remedy on the market today.
I suffered from kidney complaint for a
long time and often. was in a Sc
rious condition from the sever pains
in my back and through my loirs.
Frequently in the morning 1 would be
so lame and sore that I could o get
out of my bed without assistance and 1
was at a loss to know how to dispose
of my trouble. Finally a friend toll
me about Doan's Kidney Pills and de-
cidings to try them, | p%rocuret a
box from the Salisbury Drug Conn any.
A short use stopped the pain in my
back and improved my health. When
ever I notice a slight return of the
trouble, I promptly resort to Doan's
Kidneys Pills and good results are al
ways forthcoming."

-Four Coming EcIipses.

The almanacs of 1909 foretell
three eclipses to transpire during
the coming year, three of them
being total. and the number being
equally divided between the sun
and the noon. Three will lie Wis
ible here, while the fourth will
not favor the citizens of this land.
A total eclipse of the sun, which
will occur on June 18th, will be
visible to the United States, with
the exception Of a small part of
the Pacific coast States.
A total eclipse of the moon will
appear, or rather disappear, June
3rd, which will also be visible in
this part of the country.
A total eclipse of the moon is
scheduled for November 26th aud
9th, which will be in the nature
of G Thanksgiving offering. This
eclipse will be in plain view in
Charlotte.
A partial eclipse of the sun, De-
cember 18th, 18th, will not be Wis
ible to the people of the United
States.-Charlotte Observer.

The Re-settIemeat OF America.

The following incident illus
trates the problem which is be-
fore the Protestant Christian
churches of America in dealing
with the foreigners who have
settled in such great numbers in
the East and in portions of the
middle West. It was our privilege
during the summer to spend the
day in a little town on the eastern
end of Long Island, so tar east
that it should be reckoned as a
part of New England. A portion
of the house in which we were
entertained was standing during
the Revolution and almost every
thing about the little town savors
of the old New England days,
We were taken to see the one
great sight of the town, the finest
building within its limits. That
building was a Polish Catholic
church. The old Protestant
churches were far inferior to this
new structure erected to meet the
needs of a great number of new
settlers with their foreign reli-
gion. In a portion of New En-
gland proper we found another il
lustration of the manner in which
these foreigners, principally
Poles, are snpplanting the de-
cendants of the Pilgrim Fathers.
The best lands in the community
were owned or rented by the for
eigners. They can afford to pay
a higher rent for two reasons.
In the first place, they spend
much less upon themselves and in
the second place the man of the
family is aided by his wife and all
of his children in the work upon
the farm, and all of them work
during the greater part of day
for seven days of each week.
They are a prosperous people and
not bad citizens by any means,
but the problem of bringing them
into accord with our ideals of
Christian civilization is not yet
solved. -Presbyterian Standard.

Burbank to Improve Corn.

Luthe; Burbank, the vegetable
wizard, who was recently granted a
special $4,000 appropriation by
the Carnegie foundation, is to
spend part of the amount in study
to improve the common American
corn. Burbank's seedless apples
and spineless cacti have become
famous, and the public will watch
with interest his efforts to develop
maize to greater commercial val
ne.
The American corn. on which
much of the nations agricultural
prosperity rests, is n of the few
cultivated vegetable growth tbs of
which the California investigator
has been unable to find the origi-
nal in the wild state. He thinks
it came from q grass, and that the
Central American teostinte is now
it's nearest wild relation.
The a of corn originally grew
at the top of it's stalk, as the head
of wheat or oats does now. By
crossing species Burbank has pro.
duced a grass that he believes is
similar to the ancestor of the corn.
By studying the origin of this
great American staple he hopes
to secure a basis of Investigation
from which to evolve a corn of still
greater general utility.
The first task is to supply the
missing link in the evolution Of
the ear.-Ex.

New Form Of Municipal Government.

The "Texas system" of mu-
nicipal government which will be
adopted by High Point will be
presented at an early date to the
public by a special committee ap-
pointed by the board of alder
men. The committee, headed by
A. E. Tate, has been working on
the new charter for some time and
is getting it in shape to suit this
North Carolina town. It will be
presented to the Legislature
which meets in January for rat
ifcation. The new charter will
in all probability call for commits
sioners and a recorders court, and
much interest is being manifested
in the same.-High Point special

Our Friands-in Invocation.

Giver of eve1y'good and perfect
gift we desire to thank Thee this
day for our friends.
Some times in our thoughtless-
ness or in our arrogance we say
we make them. Thou makest
them, and we meet them on the
way.
To those who find few, give the
comfort Of Thy spirit, and open
their eyes and ears that they may
see and hear the tokens of love and
sympathy about them and teach
us all to grapple to our souls with
hooks of steel those whom Thou
hast given us.
We ask this in the name of Him
who had few while on earth, who
has countless thousands now, and
yet stands waiting to welcome and
comfort all who come unto Him.

Young Girl Brought Home

Chief of Police J. B. Hayworth
returned Thursday morning on
NJ. 30 accompanied by Miss Jen-
ME Sink, step-daughter of
Grant Hiatt, who left her home
and went to Alexandria, Va.
Chief Hayworth was sent thlther
by the young lady's family. She
made little objection to returning,
and is again at home. Upon her
arrival at Alexandria. she fotnd
a home through the efforts of the
Salvation army people, and was at
work, when the officer arrived.
Chief Hayworth was very much
impressed by the police service of
Alexandria and Washington city,
and says the officers treated him
very kindly and cautiously, and
aided him very much.
He says their system is perfec-
ton itself. They make it point
to look after strangers who arrive
on the trains, and that is how
they met Miss Sink. She was d.
rected by them to the Salvation
army people, who kind folks that
they are, do much good. They
found an excellent family for Miss
Sink. where she was received as
a member of the family, and whore
she was most kindly treated.-Lex

WASTING PUBLIC MONEY.
That is What the Government has Done In
the Florida Peonage Cases.

The dispatches tell US that the
Federal government has spent
100000 prosecuting alleged Pc
onage cases in Florida and else
where in the South without Sc
curing one single conviction, and
that it has decided to discontinue
the pursuit. Half a million dol
lars of the public money has been
wasted in following up the ignis

borers and sensational correspond.

cute and harass somebody's mar
ked characteristic, by the way, of
the Roosevelt Bonaparte admins
tration-seized upon them as at
fording az opportunity for self
exploitation and the expenditure
of public money. An army of
spies and detectives and other
"agents" were sent into the field.
Employers of labor-all in the
South, be it noted-were harassed
and annoyed, and after two years
of such outrageous harassment
comes the announcement of moth
ing accomplished except the use
less expenditure Of half a million
dollars of good money. It is to
be hoped Taft will early next
March make Bonaparte and all
his staff of public prosecutors walk
the plank. They have cost the

pie more millions, all in order to
keep themselves in the public eye
and their mouths at the public

the law to the letter, however, and
the court sustained him.

CITIZEN FEARS
 EFFECT OF TALK
HE THINKS TASTY EXPRESSIONS
 ABOUT DISARMlNG OFFICERS
 WILL HAVE A TENDENCY TO MAKE CRIMINALS MORE BOLD.

To the Editor of The AgeHerald:
 am very much surprised at many things said in reference to incorporate shooting in jail on the streets and other places There are many sides to this question. It is true men ought to use the utmost care in shooting at a criminal. But many of the expressions used, such as "disarming our police force" tend only to encourage the criminals to risk the desperate chance of escape. Then if they get away we are ready to condemn the officers of the law. I have thought, and still believe, that there is not section [ of our country of same population where so many street car men, deputy sheriffs and policemen have been killed. few months ago, under the influence of the ebullitions of our sympathies, we were ready to condemn almost any act of 2 policeman. Let a few innocent people suffer and we want all our police officers disarmed.
 The pendulum vascillates in it's arc, and stops only at the extremes. Public senti- ment is something like that. At one time our hats are in the air and our praises
 
 we are yelling, Cruelty him. Cruelty him. If man gets the "buck ague," take him off the police force, but don't condemn the whole force.
 We have a living man among us for whom I always feel sorry, and at the same time I feel like lifting my hat to him. Birmingham was at the point of having a lynching That man said, If you come any further my men will fire The firing was done. Some innocent peo- pie suffered, Some people still con- demn. We ought to remember, as we'll the benefits growing out of the sacrifice We've had no riot or lynching since. It is because we are living. as it were, in the halo of the influence of the sacrifice Every state in the union has been bene- flted by having it's citizenship inspired to a keener sense of the supremacy of the law While l pity the innocent sufferers from a stray shot, and deplore the re- suit as much as any one can, yet I am in sympathy with the men who take their lives in their hands and stand as our rep- resentatives of law and order. Intem- perate or unguarded expressions by our leaders in the public prints do more harm than a few stray bullets. To condemn the executors of the law and those em- ] ployed by them, and publish the fact that they are disarmed, or even condemned, is to encourage every species of dabolism ' known to our court records

DUN & CO.'S REVIEW.
Progress of Crops Strengthens Conf
 dence In the Future.

New York, June 26.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow will
 say:
 Midsummer quiet is augmented this year by the general contraction that has occurred in all departments of trade and
 industry, but splendid progress of the crops strengthens confidence in the future and preparations for a large volume of fall business is gradually increasing. the percentage of active machinery. Erratic fluctuations in prices of raw material re-
 tarded improvement in the cotton goods
 industry, but the recent sharp advance
 in hides and leather, on account of small receipts of cattle failed to check progress at shoe factories. A fair tonnage of new
 business is also received by the steel
 mills Semi-annual clearance sales of
 dry goods were we'll attended, country
 merchants replenishing depleted stocks at
 satisfactory prices, and reports from all
 sections of the country testify to a good
 distribution of lightweight wearing ap-
 parel.
 Idle freight cars have been reduced to
 less than 35O,O00, and railroad shops are resuming repair work.
 Numerous small orders make up a fair tonnage of new business in the iron and steel industry, but buying is conserva- tive, as is customary at this season in most departments. The usual inventories
 and repairs will be made next week, re- dueing operations at mills and furnaces somewhat. but resumption of work will be on much larger scale than has pre- vailed of late. Export trade is broaden 1 ing, although there Is no disposition to
 make any further reductions In steel
 prices.
 Pig iron furnaces are only receiving l this department also there is a stability
 about prices that is becoming disturbing
 to buyers who have failed to provide for 1 future requirements. The combination l of conservative buying and violent fluc- 1 tuations in raw cotton precludes the de- | velopment of any definite tendency and 1 prices of cotton goods in the primary market are also affected by terms at | clearance sales. Export business is light l the past week bringing some orders from l China, but curtailment at the Lancashire mills testifies to the lack of demand from 1 the Far East. Early duplicate orders for | mems wear woolens have been complet- l ed, and no additional business is expect- 1 ed until clothers' salesmen secure fur | ther contracts. Arrivals of foreign dry | hides are small and are readily absorbed | at the recent advance in prices. Tanners insist on full quotations for leather
