THE
LITTLE
ONES
Are the joy and sunlight of our
homes. Use all care to keep the
little ones in health. Do not give
them nauseous doses. You can
overcome their troubles with Dr.
King’s
Royal Germetuer.
They all like to take it because it
does not taste like a medicine,
but like a lemonade. It cures colic
in young children, overcomes all
bowel troubles, gives good digestion,
and quiet, healthful sleep.
As a tonic for weak children and
as a remedy for use in teething, it is
the greatest in the world.

[Correspondence of The Ledger]
Cedar Mountain, N. C., Sept. 21.—
I Wo were in Brevard Saturday and
! saw the cars run in for the first
time on the Hendersonville efc Bre-I
| yard railroad. The road is comple- !
i ted except putting in u few cross i
| lies. Nearly every one in town ran |
‘ out to see the locomotive coming !
i over the new road. As its not a na
tive of this section it was somewhat
amusing to behold.
(i. W. Vanderbilt is trying to buy |
this county it seems. We hope he |
will get land enough to build upon.
Its reported that it will take two '
years yet to complete his dwelling.
Last Sunday night at prayer-meet
ing .lack Moody knocked Fidell
McCall down, striking him under the
eyes with knacks, it is supposed, and
making an ugly knot.
We would like to have a bushel or j
two of shelled cat fish from your
state we can’t raise them here.
The people have began to haul the
cabbage crop to Greenville and upper
Carolina.
We can hear the squirrels harking
nearly every morning. As W. T. JI.
of your county is an expert hunter
we would be pleased to have him up
here to go hunting w'th us. lie could
sure bring them in. He might kill a
deer too, come W. T.
The Ledger is now a dandy. We
didn’t think we could do without it
before it was enlarged and now we
know we can’t. We think the editor
is the right man in the right place.
We rather receive it than a personal
letter.
In reply to Bro. Hermit’s inquiry,
will say we have rot dwindled out of
existance if we do get (as the negroes
catfish.) swunk occasionally, it dont
take us long to revive up again.
However we are at our best about
now for we pull ICO net. That’s not
on a dwindle much. Bro. Hermit
pulls 200 of course, hut about f)0 of
that is imagination, so if he begins to
dwindle it won’t he long until he will
he one among the ghosts of an un
known region.
George Bishop married his dead
brother \ wife last Sunday. She has
two chil Iren. They start today for
Greonvil/e.
Vacation’s come at last and we arc

On no country have the charms of
nature been more prodigally lavished :
than upon America. Behold her out j
spread lakes like oceans of liquid sil- ;
ver; her mountains radiant with ae- ;
rial tints and curiosities; her valleys :
teeming with luxuriant fertility; her;
measureless cataracts thundering in (
her solitudes, her boundless plains I
waving with spontaneous verdure, j
her mighty rivers rolling in sullen |
majesty to the ocean, her tractless j
forest where vegetation puts forth
all its magnificence and her transeen- i
dent skies kindling with the magic of
summer clouds and glorious sunshine
With all this beauty and splendor
America is the finest country in the |
world. Then why should we not he |
a happy n. ion? with all the necessi
ties of life and God as our master.

Liquor Consnuied In the World.
Statistics have been compiled at
Vienua of the quantity of alcoholic
liquors drank in 1893 in the entire
world. Germany heads the list with
1,202,132,074 gallons, an increase of
34,000,000 over 1802, the consumption
being 33 gallons per head, ranging from
02 gallons in Bavaria to 12 gallons in
Tothringen; Great Britian second,
1,105,752,000 gallons, or 30 gallons per
head; America, including the whole of
the western hemisphere, is third, with
more than a billion gallons, or 16 gal
lons per head. The total for the world,
not including Asia and Africa, is 4,500,-
000,000 gallons, requiring 7,270,000
tons of malt and 82,000 tons of hops.
Victims of Alcohol.
Just outside the city of Chicago 8,000
men are engaged in digging the big
Chicago drainage canal. The local
town officials have licensed 28 saloons
for their especial benefit, on the ground
that the saloon “is the only door open
ing to the man who drops his x>ick after
six days of the most arduous toil under
the sun. ” It is said that already these
saloons have been responsible for 12
murders committed by the men.—Ex
change.
Ths Workingman's Foe.
Wo have seen that the laboring man
has no enemy so tyrannical or so piti
less us the liquor traffic; that no legis
lation or any change of sociological con
ditions can bo of any permanent benefit
to the laboring classes of the world ho
long as $900,000,000 a year is wasted
in intoxicating drinks.—Rev. Dr. Banks.

! ns the rssults wore almost marvelous
j in the ease of my wife. While I was
I pastor of the Baptist Churchat Rives
Junction she was brought down with
