I take gieat pleasure in giving the very highest testimonial to Dr. Baker's Blood and Liver Cure. I used it in 1895 Inflammatory Rheumatism. I was severely sfflicted with the disease and tried my family physician, in addition to various remedies, without effect. I procured some of the above medicine, and before using a bottle of it I could walk without my crutches, and by the time I had used a bottle and a half, I felt entirely well, and have not Buffered any since. I cheerfully recommend it, and believe it will do all its propietors claim for it. Eespectfully, E 0. MaetiD, Deputy Collector of "Wilkes County, N. C., Feb. 22, 1898. For sale at the Bazzar. Want to Pay Out. A Washington despatch says that nronno Plinrrr IVon Hrm. L Li C iauiuuo v ntuo vuui a j & wv pany, which is under indictment by the postal authorities, is making a desperate effort to keep its case out of court. They have submitted a proposition to rcmpromise by paying back to the ar^v of women they have defrauded of money the sum of $30,000, which they claim constitutes all. the funds on hand. Among those indicted are a preacher and his daughter. Could Not Breathe. Coughs, colds, croup, grip, bronchitis, other throat and lung troubles are quickly cured by One Minute Cough Cure. One Minute Cough Cure is not a mere expectorant, which gives only temporary relief. It softens and liquifies the mucous, draws out the inflammation and removes the cause of the disease. Absolutely safe. Acts at once. ''One Minute Cough Cure will do all that is claimed for it," says Justice of the Peace, J. Q. Hcod, Crosby, Miss. "Aly wite coma not get ner Dreatn and was relieved by the first dose. It has been a benefit to all my family.*' J. E Kaufmann. Secretary Long will resign from the cabinet. Nearly 3000 men are at work on the site of the Vvrorld's Fair ground at St. Lcuis. Take Life for the Liver and Kidneys. Bottles 25c. 50c and $1 00. Sell Produce in State Without i License. The bill to allow all farm products of this State to be marketed in any j town in the State without license, ! has become a law. Merchants, millers, canners and provision brokers will be interested to note that it appears, oil doI t uy lit) tuic, IU V/U?C1 an emu auu smoked meats, flour, meal, corn and other grain and all vegetables and fruits canned in the Stat9. If the terms of the measure conform to its title, no license fee can be exacted for these products of the State in any town of the State. Get Bid of the Surplus. The Kepublicans argue that we ought to spend S100,000,000 on our navy in order to fit it to guard our merchant marine, and that we ought to spend some other millions in bounties for the merchant marine, so as to build it up and give tne navy something to do. How to get rid of 1 a surplus never worries the Republicans.?Ex. A Deep Mystery. , It is a mystery why women endure 1 Backache, Headache, Nervousness, Sleeplessness, Melancholy, Fainting and Dizzy Spells when thousands have proved that Electric Bitters will quickly cure such troubles. "I suf fered for years with kidney trouble," * writes Mrs. Pbebe Cherley, of Peterson, la., "and a lame back pained me j so I could net dress myself, but Elec- 1 trie Bitters wholly cured me, and, J although 73 years old, I now am able to do all my housework." It overcomes Constipation, improves Appetite, gives perfect health. Only 1 50c at J. E Kaufmann's drug store. ] Almost Reached South Pole. . New York, February 20.?Charles E. Borchgrevink, the Anarctic explorer, arrived in New York today on 1 the steamship Etruria. Tcmigbt he ! told in an interview cf bow, in 1809, 1 he and a party of scientists had 1 reached the seventy-eighth degree, ! south latitude, about 800 miles from the South Pole and the most extreme southern point that any man has ever reached. Practically Starving. ] "After usiDg a few bottles of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure my wife received 1 perfect and permanent relief from a < severe and chronic case of stomach < trouble,'' says J. R. Holly, real estate, < insurance and loan agent, of Macomb, ! 111. "Before using Kcdol Dyspesia i Cure she could not eat an ordinary meal without intense suffering. She { is now entirely cured. Several physicians and many remedies had failed to give relief." You don't have to diet. Eat sny good food you want, I but don't overload the stomacb. < Kodol Dyspepsia Cure will always i digest it for you. J. E. Kaufmann. Expensive Government. Our civil government in the Philippines ie getting to be large and expensive: Goverror Toft gets $20,000 and each of his four assistants $15,000, while there are twenty-six other officials who draw from $4,000 to $7,500 a year. In all there are 4,606 civil employees, not quite half of whom are Americans. Tbe salary roll runs to over $3,000,000, of which over two-thirds goes to the Americans. Garden Seeds Come High. It will cost the Government $170,000 for common garden seeds and $28,000 for clerical help to scatter them amoDg the people who have no I use on earth for them. These seeds, j though, undoubtedly have quite an j influence politically in determining j the fate of many a Congressman, and j thus is explained why so many old seeds get places in Congress. Old Soldier's Ezperience. j M. M. AustiD, a civil war veteran, j of Winchester, Ind., writes: "My wife ! wa3 sick a long time in spite of good | doctor's treatment, but was wholly cured by Dr. King's New Life Pills, which worked wonders for her health." They always do. Try them. Only 25c at J. E. Kaufmann's drug j store. i ???1 I to the acre at less cost, means I more money. | More Potash in the Cotton fertilizer improves me soil; increases yield?larger profits.

The officers say this was one of the largest outfits ever destroyed in this section of the State. Chronic Diarrhoea. Mr. C. B. Wingfield, of Fair Piay, Mo., who suffered from chronic dysentery for thirty-five years, says Chamberlain'd Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy did him more good than aoy other medicine he had ever used. For sale by J. E. Kaufmann. Horses Going to South Africa. Salt L*ke, Utah, February 20.? Three thousand "Western horses, known as "cayusee," gathered from the ranges of the inter-mountain States, are to be shipped to South (Africa for use in the British army, i The animals were purchased by agents of the British army, who had been scouring the country for weeks, and have been concentrated in corrals in this city and Grand Junction, Colorado.

He asks only five cents each, but asks each recipient of a letter to send a similar letter to three friends. But he wants it stopped "at the end of the one hundredth series," by which time be will have, according to the figuring of some fellow who had a good deal of spare time, $965,424,542,600,897,721,589,794, more or less, which ought to build a pretty nice church.
