The Last Days Trial of Ernan-

Murderer of AnSelmO ATduZe
at Mary's Fancy Dec. Is; 1920.

The day for which was set the last
trial Of Emanuel Faulkner. the accused
murderer of Anselmo Anduze at Mary's
Fancy on Christmas. Day 1920, dawned
upon the little town of C~hristiansted is
which anxious people dreamed the night
before only of the verdict to be given on
the evidences received the day subse-
quent. The Jurymen awoke to the res
possibility which confronted them that
day, and stretched themselves with a
yawn, then a CHEEKY. "Good-morning' to
each other, the mornings toRette per
formed. They betoJk themselves on the
eastern porch on the third floor of Gov
ernment's Building into which they

for so intricate a case, would prove a
task; the interest throughout the whole
proceeding, the patience manifested by
them was wonderfully encouraging, and
the respect with which they were held
by all, is due to the master ability of
each mar in his private life and influence
in the community. Meanwhile tive time
wore on; and a crowd had gathered at
every available entrance, and upon. the
opening of these portals. they rushed
violently against each other, regardless
Of bodily injury even to self, in their
eagerness to secure admission into the
small, square courthouse.
At the hour appointed Judge Nc K
with stately stature. entered the room,
and had just taken his seat, when the
bell in the old steeple chimed the hour
of nine. The prisoner then entered the
room in the custody Of Chief Espersen,
Of the Municipal Police Force: his face
wore a sad expression, to which effect
long hairs on head and body added to
the ~samson-like appearance of the sturdy
young man; his step was brisk, and his
heavy boots echoed through the stiffness
Of the moment, and penetrated every
corner of the room.
The days proceeding was immediate
ly announced, and as ali other witnesses
had testified the days previous, Faulkner
was summoned to witness stand by his
counsel, who was none other than Judge
Payne, appointed by the court to defend
as much as he was able the un-
fortunate young man and we'll did he
exert himself in the capacity, though all
other evidence seemed against him; we'll
did he upturn each stone in the path that
might have led to the acquittal Of his
charge. His appeal as admitted by Gov
eminent Attorney Keyser his direct
opponent IN the case, was a masterpiece.
Eloquent words flowed from the heart Of
this man, and made its effect felt upon
all within distinct he ring of his voice:
it was no mean appeal backed by a fee;
it was not a professional working for his
wages; but it was with that deep seated
love OF man for his felloWman, with the
fervour of a patriot that he pleaded for
the life of that poor boy, and it Only
that warmth of expression, the ETHEREAL
ardOr of that appeal, that saved the rope
from that poor boys" neck; and had it
not been for a letter introduced at almost
the last moment by the accused; purport-
ing to have been written by Emanuel Mar
tin his alleged emissary in the crime, and
which was proved as false testimony,
that appeal would have gone further in
its influence, and the All Highest only
knows what would have been the result.

THERE'S DEATH IN THE P0T'



Nature could not devise way to
feed and repair the body without the
production of considerable waste
matter. But Nature provided for
the regular, thorough elimination Of
such waste. To disregard her in
tenfion is to break q natural law.
Whether you help Nature by wise
or foolish means is left to your own
judgment. To simply force bowel
movement is unwise, unnatural and
ineffective. You can choose harsh.
drastic, violently acting drugs or
take such without caring what their
action or effect is, or you can select
some old s,time-proven, trial-tested
remedy, that has been used FOR 70
years or more by thousands Of people
all over the world, with the result
that it has won an enviable reputas
ton as q reliable household remedy.
Take Beecham's for example. All
the world knows Beecham's; q good
ly part Of the world uses Beecham's,
has been using it for years, handing
it, use down from father to son,
from mother to daughter, for gen.
GRAFTON after generation, recommend
ing it to others. In spite Of such
extensive and general use, who ever
heard complaint or criticism Of
Beecham's? That in itself is q
powerful recommendation.
Don't take anything for granted.
Reason it out. All druggists sell
Beecham's-are glad to sell them.
Beecham's reputation has been
made by its users not by its sellers.

Dear Aunt Madge:
believe / promised reformation
when l last saw you in Surry at the
annual get-together, which was not
real close affair this year, though
enjoyable as far as it went. l en-
ioyed meeting those members who
were there, and the day. the ride and
the field day, were all one could ask,
to say nothing of the picnic lunches
SO much relished at noon, and the
meeting of other friends from all over
the county.
l have been fortunate in having va
rious other outings since then, with
long rides through the beautiful
country scenery. brilliant with the
most lavish colors nature can bestow.
Always a lover of outdoor life, l see
every fern, every roadside flower. and
rejoice in every fine landscape l al
ways dread the days of cold and frost
when verdure must fade and die, yet
feel grateful that nature never leaves
us an utterly barren and waste out
look. There is always the green Of
the pines. frs, hemlocks and cedars,
and the evergreen vines. And If we
had no winter, we would not so much
appreciate the spring when all things
are again restored, so try always to
think that when winter is here,
spring is not far away; also, in con-
nection with the winter of our lives,

Things Growing
And if l must be gathered for the
angels sowing,
Sleep out of sight awhile like the
green things growing,
Though earth to earth be given, !

FIFTY YEARS AGO.

To appreciate the wonders of our
age, it is we'll sometimes to look back
TO past years and compare to-days
conditions with those of yesterday.
Suppose that we, to reach a period
fifty years back, take the most won
derful conveyance of the present, the
airplane, for the beginning of our
journey into the past. AS we pass
over the farming lands of our Won
derfully diversified country, we shall
see the work of blowing, narrowing
and otherwise tilling the SOIL being
done by great tractors, which can ac-
complish in hours the task formerly
done by horses and oxen in days or
weeks Reapers and binders harvest
the grain. other tasks having each it's
own particular machine to tighten the
labor
In the modern home we find the
telephone, electric lights, electric
sweepers, heaters, washers, and sew
ing machines; the bath room with all
it's conveniences, books, magazines
daily papers, an automobile for
pleasure riding. In every village
large enough to warrant it we find
movie theatre and other amusement
features.
Continuing our journey, our air.
plane seems to falter and finally we
are obliged to abandon it and take an
automobile, for We have reached 1908,
and beyond that airplanes are fex-
perimental. and the modern machin-
cry we have mentioned is giving place
to the cruder implements of former
times. There is more hand labor, and
in the homes we see, instead of the
faucet the pump; instead of cleo
tricity and all it's accessories, we
find only the kerosene lamp, no tele-
phone. and on the farm no daily
papers. And shortly, 1898, we must
change from our automobile to the
railway, each year of our journey
leaving behind us more and more of
the labor saving devices, the con-
veniences of the home.
Now we are nearing the period in
question, about fifty years ago, and. to
reach the farm home we must leave
our train and take a stage coach, per-
maps, or other horse-drawn vehicle.
suppose we get there in haying
time. in the early morning In the
field, instead of the moving machine,
(invented 1880, we find men swingL
ing the scythe, the children spread
ing the hay. In the afternoon is the
hand-raking and getting in. Is there
horse fork to handle the hay in the
barn? No. indeed The hay must be
pitched off by hand and slowed away
by two men, boys or girls, as the case
may be. Oxen are now largely used
on the farms, and seem so slow as
they plod along, yet in some cases
they even serve for the only team to
go to mil or market, to church or
visiting. What family to-day so de-
sirous of church privileges they would
go in an ox-cart? What would a boy
of to-day think if he were sent to
borrow fire or roll in a back log?
Not uncommon tasks in period not
much farther back than fifty years.
How many mothers now could
operate a spinning wheel, or a loom,
or mold candle? How many house,
wives could cook meal over a fire.

as utensils? Candles were much in
use at that time to save Kerosene not
then very much used except on
special occasions. Stoves were small
and inadequate to the cooking for the
large families of that day, and in
many homes the old brick oven was
