Banks Are In Good Condition.

Banks Are In Good Condition.
The banks of North Carolina have
been doing an increasing business in
the period from November 10, 1910,
to December 5, 1911, for the report
just issued by the North Carolina
Corporation Commission shows an in
crease Of resources of $6,259, 628.66.
This is the record made by the $40
banks, including IA branches for that
period. The total resources on No
vember 10, 1910 amounted to $685.
146,551.91 and on December 5, 1911,
to $68,406,17997. The capital stock
had increased from $SS,916,93.55 to
$9,527, 0S0.69, and the surplus fund
from $1,961, 480.41 has increased to
$2,2S2,086.39. The deposits, not in
Guiding trust deposits, amounted on
November 10, 1910, to $42,978,945.13
and on December 5, 1911, to $49,S47,-
1884, showing an increase of $685..
213.71. These are good figures to
ponder over. They show that North
Carolina is making progress in mon.
ey matters.

Naming Stations On New Railroad.


The first station out of Elkin on
the Elkin & Allegheny Railway will
very probably be named for the gen.
eral manager of this road, Mills"
the second will be called Thurmond,
after son &C the president, H. G.
Chatham; the third will /be called
Doughton, for the lieutenant gov
ernor; the fourth, Chatham, for the
family Of this name, who have been
active in the furtherance of this
project since it's inception in 1907,
and the last will, of course, be Sparta.
These are family names, so to speak,
but it is regarded as being entirely
fitting that these men, who have been
active in the work of building this
road should have such testimonial of
their activity and interest in a work
to which they have devoted so much
time and effort.

CURES OF EXPENDITURE
punt Expended BY Board Of Educa.
eaton For Repairs and New School
y Houses in the County.

y Charlotte.-An interesting item in
connection with the county schools
and the recent appraisement of
school conditions, made, at the first
meeting of the board of education is
the amount that has been expended
by the board of education for new
school houses in the county and re-
pairs for houses already built. Ac-
cording to the figures in Superinten-
dent R. j. Cochrane's office, they are
as follows:
A new room in the McIyer school,
Berryhill township, costing $500.
One room added to the Trinity
school in Long Creek township cost
ing $4S5.
New school house in District No.
3 of Long Creek township, the Aber.
nathy school, $3.50,
Repair on Union school in District
No. 7 of Mallard Creek township,
costing $275.
New room in District No. 2, Wilson
Grove township, $3.50.
State blackboards, 1882.
Floor oil and disinfectants, $3.50.
Other school supplies, $4,000.
Small repairs on 6 or 8. houses,
1925.
The larger part of the expenditure,
it will be seen, was spent on supplies
and repairs, previous years having
witnessed more building than this
year. In fact, the building campaign
carried on by the board of education
for the past few years has resulted
in the furnishing of good and sub
stantial buildings for most of the dis
tricts in the county.

IN LESS sYRENyOIlsT
Explanation Of the Differences e
tween Domestic STANDARDS Now
and Those I Long Ago.

In the Woman's Home Companion
there Is an interesting presentation of
the difference that exists between the
domestic standard of young married
women of today and those of the past
generation. How did the women of
the middle class Of generation or
two ago manage when they could not
keep help? Following is the answer
quoted from a Companion editorial:
"They lived according to their
means; they did not set up impossible
standards, and they knew much less
about the science of bringing up chill
dren. They had no special style to
keep up; gave the children a weekly
bath; kept the table set between
meals; did not serve their meals In
courses, but put all the food on the
table at once; confined their social
affairs to evening calls and parties,
and church suppers, at which they
wore the same black silk dress for at
least two seasons; in short, every
woman did only what she could, and
her friends made 1t easier for her by
doing likewise"

Standard statistics Of the coffee trade
show a falling off in sales during the last
two years Of over two hundred million
pounds. Authenticated reports from the
Postum factories in this city show a
tremendous increase in the sale of Postum
in q like period of time.
While the sales of Postum invariably
show marked increase year over year, the
extraordinary demand for that we'll

very likely due to public awakening to
the oppression Of the coffee trust.

CANDIDATE TIRED.
The Campaign Party Well Re-
ceived at Greelyville and Trio.

Andrews, August 19:-The week
is ended and the writer is at home,
tired of travelling and wearied by
the heat. After our day at Kings
tree we all spoke at Greelyville on
Thursday, the 18th. We had a fine
time. We spoke from the front
porch of Mr. Boykins' home, and the
crowd gathered in the front yard
in a beautiful grove. We had a most
attentive hearing accorded US all by
the Greelyville people. A better and
more hospitable populace has never
lived on Gods green earth. The
candidates were all taken care of by
those good people, but our train was
late and we did not leave Greely-
Vile until II o'clock. When we got
to Lanes our train had left and was
about Is yards ahead of US. We had
to spend the night at Lanes. We
went to Trio Friday morning on the
C & w railroad. We met a large
crowd, all in good humor. Homes
were provided for all candidates and
all were we'll cared for. Unfor
tunately some little disturbance hap
pened at the speaking, but nearly all
the candidates had their say before
this occurrence.
Next Tuesday we shall all be at
Morrisville, where some of the best
people of our county live. l love to
visit the dear spot. l have some
good friends and kindred living at
this place. and l am made to feel at
home there. We can only hope for
cooler weather for this weeks work.
1t is pleasure to meet the good
people of our old county.
On Wednesday we shall visit john
sonville and speak there. On Friday
we shall be at Hebron. This section
of the county ! have never visited,
but it is my luck to know some of
those people, and | know they are as
good as the Supreme Being ever
dotted mother earth with. hope
to have the chance to shake the
hand Of those good people before
this goes into print. We hope for
peace and good will among our
crowd of candidates. w 5 Z.

tention to the Min n
Ills

Older people should be especially
careful of their health during the
hot months, as high temperature has
a peculiarly enervating effect that
tends to disarrange the entire diges-
tive system. The slightest indiscre-
ton in diet is almost sure to be fol-
lowed by bowel trouble and indiges-
ton, but if care is taken to keep the
bowels open by using gentle laxa-
tive stimulant at the first sign of any
irregularity, great deal of misery
and distress can be avoided.
Strong, harsh and drastic physics
should be avoided because of the
shock to the system following their
use. An excellent laxative, and one
that is easy and natural in its effect
on the stomach, bowels and liver,
is found in DR. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, compound of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin that is pleasant to
the taste and positive in its action.
By cleansing the bowel tract and re-
moving the foreign matter that irri-
tates and infames the tissue, a dose
of Syrup Pepsin will quickly check
the summer diarrhoea that is so
prevalent. DR. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin is sold in drug stores for fifty
cents a bottle; large family size, one
dollar. A free trial bottle will be
sent postpaid if you will write to DIR
