To the Editor of tbe Dispatch: (The record breaking warm spell has given way to the cold bleak I winds and rains of the North. I am [ in a warm cczy room, with Mrs. j Felix, enj jying ease aod comfort, : after a twenty-eight mile drive : through wind, fog, rain, sleet and snow for such has been thus, Friday the 26th. Uncle Sam's boys surely earns all tbey get driving 26 and 27 days per month, exposed to such climatic changes as we've had of late. Bat I as one eDjoy the cool, bracing air, move on and try not to complain. Mr. Editor, you or your type force or myself kindly slipped up on my last communication relative to the pistol carrying. May be we all are at fault. What I wanted to say is this: Pass a law prohibiting the carrying of concealed weapons or exposed for that matter, by any person except a commissioned officer, sheriff, magistrate, constable, and they carry them where they can be seen. Should anyone else desire to carry one, let the Clerk of Court issue a Hg permit charging for the same one hundred ($100) dollars, this to go lo ife the school funds. Then the parly carrying the pistol on or about his person where it can be neen and his ig. name be printed in the county and State papers at least three monthB. ,de Anyone violating this act be fined not ]?j less than five hundred ($500) dollars, >ee or placed on the county chain gang not less than five years. When fine is paid, same go to the school funds. Should a law something like this be placed upon our statutes you surely q would see less good, honest men killed and wounded by the ever ready, handy pistol carrier. Again Mr. Editor, I see my name has been handed in as a material witness to prove the unlawful cohabiting of certain parties Dear here. Now I want it strictly understood that I'm opposed to lawlessness in any shape or form, and would do anything as an honest, upright citizen should do for the uplifting of humanity, elevatiDg the morals and building up of a pure, clean citizenship; but think the party or parties who assumed the responsibility and liberty of using my name ' ?. a L. sDould Dave consulted me umure uuing so. I know absolutely nothing about the matter except hear-say and that ia not worth anything in court. Washington Wilkinson, R F. D. _ agent, has been here and inspected ~~ route number one, eminating from i from Gaston and informed the writer that he was going to make a favor- j able report to the department.. The mail handled is steadily increasing. List month showed over 2500 pieces handled. An order has gone forward for 25 more boxes. When these are erected the number of pieces will easily reach three thousand, which is tbe standard. It is a difficult matter to decide who wears the broader smile and deeper grin, C. S Goodwin, J.

Honesty is Best in Business. ^ The liar may succeed for a time, 'g but eventually he will pay the piper. * Such a leseon is conveved in the folf lowing incident told by Dr. Morden, g and repeated in the Baptist Comrnon* wealth: m "If I hire you," said a Detroit gro g cer to a boy who applied for work, "I 7 suppose you will do what I tell 300?" j g "T e, Sir." "It I told you to s?iy the sugar was ; J high grade, when it was Ijw, what j . would you SB)?" f Hesitatingly the boy said, "I'd say it." * "If I told you to say the coffee was I pure, when it bad beans in it, what would you Bajf "I'd say it." The merchant was nonplussed. "How much would you work for?" he inquired very seriously. "One hundred dollars a week," the boy answered in a business like tone. "Ooe hundred dollars a week!" responded the grocery man. i "With percentage after the first two weeks," said the boy coolly. "Ycu see," he went on, "first class liars come high, and if you need them in your business you'll have to pay the pricf; but I'll tell the truth and work for three dollars a week " The boy caught the grocer at his own game and got the job. Pirating Foley's Honey & Tar Foley's & Co., Chicago, originated Honey and Tar as a throat and lnng remedy, and on account of the great merit and popularity of Foley's Honey and Tar man}- imitations are offered for the genuine. These worthless imitations have similar sounding names. Beware of them. The genuine Foley's Honey and Tar is in a yellow package. Ask for it and refuse any substitute. It is the best remedy for coughs and colds. The Kaufmann Drug co. Legislative Affairs. The State Feb. 3. Eleven hundred bills have been introduced in the lower house.

The appropriation bill ought to come in by the first of next week, aDd then the other bills must look out. + Lame Back. This ailment is usually caused by rheumatism of the muscles and may be cured by applying Chamberlain's Pain Balm two or three times a day and rubbing the parts vigorously at each application. If tills does not afford relief, bind on a piece of flannel slightly dampened with Pain Balm, and quick relief is almost sure to follow. For sale by The Kaufmann Drug co. An Established Reputation. (A deputy sheriff and chief of police of a Rhode Island city, known in his - ?1 J lifetime as a man wnose woru uuuiu always be taken, once gave a whimsical demonstration of his straightforwardness. One day, according to a writer in the Boston Herald, a grocer went to him for information about a certain Joe White, who had applied for credit at his store. "Good morning, sheriff!" "Morning!" "Do you know Joe White?" "Yes." "What kind of a feller is ht?" "Putty fair." "Is he honest?" "Honest? I should say so. Been arrested twice for stealing, and acquitted both times." A Habit to Be Encouraged. The mother who has acquired the habit of keeping on hand a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, saves herself a great amount of uneasiness and anxiety. Coughs, colds and croup, to which children are suscptible are quickly cured by its use. It counteracts any tendency of a cold to result in pneumonia, and if given as soon as the first symptoms of croup appear, it will prevent the attack. This remedy contains nothing injurious and mothers give it to little ones with a feeling of perfect security. Sold by The Kaufmann Drug co.

One of the most noted, successful and richest men of this century, in a recent article, has said, '* Whatever I am and whatever success I have attained in this world I owe all to iny wife. From the day I first knew her she has been an inspiration, and the greatest helpmate of my life." To be such a successful wife, to retain the love and admiration of her husband, to inspire him to make the most of himself, should be a woman's constant study. If a woman finds that her energies are flagging, that she gets easily tired, dark shadows appear under her eyes, she has backache, headaches, bearingdown pains, nervousness, irregularities or the bluiS, she should start at .once to build up her system by a tonic with specific powers, such as Lvdia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Following we publish by request a letter from a young wife Dear Mrs. Pinkbam: " Ever since my child was born I have suffered, as I hope few women ever have, with inflammation, female weakness, bearing-down pains, backache and wretched headaches. It affected my stomach so I could not enjoy my meals, and half my time was spent in bed. "Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made me a well woman, and I feel so grateful that I am glad to write and tell you of my marvelous recovery. It brought me health, new life and vitality."?Mrs. Bessie Ainsley, 611 South 10th Street. Tacoma, Wash. What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Comnonnd did for Mrs. Ainsley it will do for every sick and ailing woman, i If you have symptoms you don't understand write to Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. Her advice is free and always helpful.
