No District Court.
Owing to the cutting off of the

our next term of district court will
begin on Monday the 31st day of

Afraid of Strong Medicines.
Many people suffer for years from
rheumatic pains and prefer to do
so rather than take the strong med-
icines usually given for rheumatism
not knowing that quick relief from
pain may be had simply oy apply-
ing Chamberlain's Pain Balm and
without taking any medicine inter-
nally. Rev. Amos Parker of Mag-
nolia North Carolina suffered for
eight years with a lame hip due to
severe rheumatic pains. He has
been permanently cured by the free
application of Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. For sale by S. V. Wirt
Druggist.

THE IIEIEFOKD SALE.
The attendance at the Hereford
sale yesterday was fair but the dis-
position to purchase judging from
the bidding was away below par.
Some thirty registered bulls fiom
calves to coming 2's were in the
pens and all of good families but
after the sale of five Col. Camp-
bell the auctioneer stated that he
must decline to give any more
away and he declared the auction
part of it closed.
The purchasers of the five sold
beginning in the order put up and
prices paid were as follows:
First bull Dr. Howell 125
2nd " Lewis Bradley 65
3rd " J. A. Grundy 55
4th " J. A. Grundy 50
5th " Charley Long 45
All of these were coming 2's and
good individuals and some idea of
their size can be had from the
weight of the first bull purchased
by Dr. Howell which was 1250 lbs.
The average weight of the other
tour was perhaps 200 lbs under
this.
It was a sacrifice pure and sim-
ple and the auctioneer did right in
calling off where he did.
Yesterday it was warm and mud
and water took the place of snow
but last night the wind shifted to
the North again and this morning
'tis snowing again.
"Thoroughness" as Prof.
Ernsberger says is the correct
thing in preparing for the stern
battle of life and nowhere
should it cut a greater figure
than in the school room. One
of the best educators we ever
knew would not pass a student
011 to a higher grade unless be
or she had completely mastered
all prior studies and be was
right.
