Get a 1O-cent box now.

Turn the rascals out-the headache.

Millions of men and women take a

HUMoR DIsFIeURED BABY

Clarendon, N. C.-"My baby was

rough-looking humor when about two
months old. It would come In patches

How Sunday Reaches the Frontier.

TOW ounody reaCnco tuc FFoHticf.
High principle and humor have ever
made an irresistible combination.
Early merchants on the American
frontier conspicuously failed In the OBJ
servance Of Sunday; therefore, when
a young New Jersey trader, who had
settled in Louisville, Kentucky, closed
his store on the first Sunday after 1t
was opened, there was much ado In
the town.
Other establishments kept open:
had he not noticed It? he was asked.
Yes, he knew 1t. Why did he close?
He was the first to do so; he must
know that, also.
Why" said facetious merchant,
Sunday hasn't yet crossed the noun
tains.,
Yes, 1t has," declared the newcom-
er, pleasantly. 81 brought 1t with mel"
That simple and ready reply proved
more effective than any amount of ar
gument, and although he was the first
to observe the day In town, he soon
had many followers In Sunday-closing.

BENEFITS OF COOPERATION
Plan Of Farmers Association Of
Moore and Lee Counties, North
carolIna-lts Advantages.

"The Sand Hills Farmers ossocia-
lion" of Moore and Lee counties,
North Carolina, is a young organiza-
hon as yet, and has no warehouse
Still the members are determined to
market their cotton comparatively.
Here is their plan:
The association will require of each
member who is willing to have his
cotton sold through its Offices, re-
tusal on said cotton until 1t has had
the opportunity of grading 1t, secur-
ing samples and submitting same to
the several large buyers and export
srs with whom the association is now
In correspondence. and In turn sub
hitting the resulting bids to the own
ers Of the cotton.
The association is In the possession
Of a set OF government grades or
samples. which are open to the mem
bers' inspection at the office of the
association at Pinehurst, and will Sc
cure the services OF competent
grader. whose expenses are to be met
prorata by the members of the as
ISOLATION whose cotton he grades.
The association will guarantee what
cotton IL sells to come up to the speci-
ned grade and will afix its seal to
every bale graded and sold through
Its offices and 1t will hold its mem
bers strictly responsible to protect
the grade of their cotton from the
time 1t is graded until delivered.
The association believes that by
adopting this plan the following ad-
vantages viii accrue to its members:
/. The grower will be paid the full
market price that the grade of his
cotton entities him to, which he has
not been getting from local buyers
heretofore.
2. BY selling large quantities of cot
ton Of certain specific grades in bulk.
better price will be secured from
the large buyers, exporters and mills
than would be the case II the cotton
we're sold in small quantities.
3. The commission of the local buy.
er win be eliminated.
4 BY having large quantities of
cotton of specified grades to sell, the
association win be in a position to
get competitive bids from the buyers
to whom 1t offers the cotton.
5. BY guaranteeing the cotton to
come up to specified grades, the as
ISOLATION relieves the buyer of the
risk that he ordinarily runs. and be-
iieves for this reason that 1t will be
able to secure better prices.

New World Democracy.

The story that the kaiser loves most
to tell his intimates. declares Mr..
William Armstrong in the Woman's
Magazine, concerns the visit of his
brother, Prince Henry OF Prussia, to
America.
The incident happened Just as the
prince was landing at New York. Be
side him on deck stood Admiral Won
Tirpitz. On the dock was dense
crowd. From its midst stentorian
voice called. Henry! Henryl"
The prince did not understand that
the hail was meant for him until the
admiral, smiling broadly. said: Your
royal highness, ! think some one
wants to speak to you"
Then Prince Henry looked over to
ward the human megaphone, who still
continued to bawl out his name. See
ing that he had caught the royal
gaze, the owner of the voice shouted:
