THE HENDERSON GOLD LlEAF THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1896. T'rtanti7at it Mms Success Having just added, a newoToftvde" a First a Me, Then Cancer, WALTER L. IAIN'S GREAT SHOW. A First-CIass Amusement Organization Under Most Excellent Management. There are bigger shows to be.

sura hut there is not a better one than Walter L. Main's. That is the verdict of the 3,000 people who witnessed its performance at Oxford last Thursday. Everything was neat and new, the stock in fine condition, the bill of entertainment varied, each feat seeming to surpass the others until the clim-x was reached in the grand double chariot and hippodrome races at the end of the three hours' performance. There were three rings'and a stage between, with myriads of swinging trapeze bars and flying rings suspended high above ground in which some daring and thrilling act was constantly going on from one end of the tent to the other.

It was a perfect maze of mystifying feats, enough to give a fellow the headache and a case of cross-eyes trying to see the whole thing at one time. The performance was clean and clear cut throughout, each artist being a star in his or her special line. There was not an indifljerent act ou the bill, while many of them surpassed anything ever seen under canvas before. The Fisher family of aerialists are deserving 6f especial mention, as was the riding, trapeze performer, male aud female acrobats and contortionists, old fashion spring board leaping, statuary posings, were "two double somersaulters something few shows can boast- of. The performing wild animals, lions, leopards, panthers, iu a large, specially erected steei barred arena, presented a picture seen with no other circus.

Wallace, the riding lion, a fine noble looking animal, did his work with the intelligence and accuracy of a well-trained dog, aud won great applause. The horses, 240 iu number, were fat and sleek, as fine a lot as we ever saw. It was a treat to the lover of beautiful horses to visit the stables aud look at them. Mr. John Lowlow, the veteran showman, famous jester and genial gentleman was loudly applauded upon being introduced to the vast audience.

His reception was a genuine ovation nothing short of it. Such a demonstration of enthusiasm and popularity must have been a proud moment for him. It was some time before he could be heard so great was the hand-clapping and shouts of delight when he came forward from his retreat at the side of the tent. Mr. Lowlow was visibly affected al Probably no disease carries such terror in its path aa C-iqcer and well may this dreadful affliction be regarded with horror.

In an alarming manner, it slowly bat aarely preys upon the life's blood, bearing the victim nearer the grave day by day. Beyond the use of the knife the physician Is powerless, and too much cannot be said against the foUy of resorting to the knife for a cure of this terrible disease. Cancer is in the blood, hence it is apparent to all that no relief can be expected-from an operation. In ninety-nine cases oat of a hundred the cancer promptly returns, if not in the same place, la the same locality, and is far more malignant than before. The same true of attempts to the cancer by means of caasie plasters, etc, and all who have had this treatment claim that death cannot be more painful.

Bat there ia a care for cancer one which gets at the seat of the disease, and removea its cause. -S. S. S. is the only real blood remedy, and cures cancer and all other blood diseases, even after other treatment has failed.

For twenty years Mr. Powers has suffered intensely from a cancer on his face, which was treated constantly, bat grew worse all the while. He sought the best medical skill in vain, and could aee no hope of ever being cared.

On Jnne 22, 1896, he writes: Twenty years ago, while being shaved, a small mole on my face was cat, leaving aa MR. H. POWERS. Insignificant sore, to which I paid little attention at first. This sore refused to heal, and after a while became quite and began to grow.

I placed myself under the treatment of prominent physicians, who aaid I had cancer of the most stubborn type, and though I took their treatment faithfully, the cancer jgrew steadily all the while, increasing in sixe and severity. I also took nearly every medicine that was recommended for the blood, and applied various salves and ointments, all without the slightest benefit. by year, I found myself steadily growing worse, for the cancer was sapping my life away, although I spent hundreds of dollars with doctors, and as much more experimenting with Edited by the Superintendent of Press Work.

T. U. The Destroyer Of Life. I stated two years ago that there were approximately one million six hundred thousand persons who nse spirits to ex cess in the United States. By excess I mean all persons who drank to intoxication continuously or at long intervals.

These figures were reached from a study ot the statistics of persons arrested for intoxication in the lower courts; also ths general opinion of person with a wide acquaintance among business men, who assert that less than two per cent, of all drinking men come nnder legal notice. til course, wide differences ol opiuton will prevail until some accuratestatistica are made. Two attempts to make wa census of drinking men ip Eastern towns revealed many difficulties and the intensely morbid desire to couceal the drinking customs ot people. Both of these censuses indicated cue drinking man to every eight persons and produced a strong conviction that this was a very low proportion. 1 here are many reas ons for believing that the estimate of a million six hundred thousand persons who nse spirits to excess iu this conn try I is a minimum statement.

Quarterly Jjur- al of Inebriety. It is farther estimated that or thisi number 100,000 die annually. As the) vast army of inebriates shows no signs ot diminution; the in-roads of dath are made good by fresh recruits drawn from the ranks of sobriety, but more especially from the boyhood and budding manhood of onr homes.

J. Hiram Goodrich, an account of whose death appeared in the Gold Leaf of October 15th, one need hardly fear being accused by any who knew her of overestimating her worth. Her.piety was questioned by no one; ber self-denying, self-sacrificing for others showed much of the spirit of Him who came not to be niinistered unto but to minister. Her ww rami was inspiring, tier experiences were much moie than ordinary. The Master manifested Himself unto her as lie does not unto tht world; as He- does not unto an average disciple indeed as He cannot to one of less faith and less devotion.

During the last months of her yet busy and useful life, though an invalid, one coming into her presence and hearing her modestly speak of remarkable experiences, seemed to breathe Heavenly atmosphere and to dwell for the time in the very borderland. Before the end came she evidently bad passed through the valley of the shadow of death and feared no evil, for sho went singing on her way literally sang songs when she was too feeblo to speak above a whisper. Ia all this it was noted that she was faithful unto death, not shrinking in the least or dreading. Indeed, she was faithful into death, and we believe through death; requesting that nothing doleful or sad be sung at her funeral. This was to her an hour of triumph and victory.

As to the usefulness of this unselfish life let those whose lives have been cheered, whose hearts have been gladdened, whose faith has been strengthened, whos piety has been deepened, speak. It seems incredible that one so feeble physically though at times this physical weakness seemed strangely turned into strength could find so many ways to keep up church work, to be of actual and material assistance to others, and to attend to her own business affairs. Those who did not know Mrs. Goodrich perhaps are ready to say: "This is a way the world has, praising people after they are gone." Those who knew her are ready to say, "The half has not been MuchTnore of truth could be said. Her modesty would forbid saying this innch but for the inspiration it may be to others.

The husband, children and brothers feel the loss most. They have our heartfelt sympathy, as do all the relatives. But many others snstaln great loss in tbata friend and helixr has gone from us. M. Henderson, N.

About Printers Ink. This is the day of printers' ink, and the prizes are for those who use it. Your traditions and prejudices may be to the contrary, but the world doesn't care a fig for them. The man who sits and waits for his trade in these days gets left. Don't advertise, don't quote your price lists, don't see that your city or your business is represented in your patronizing territory, and don't stand up mantully alongside of those who are fighting for your rights and interests, and there can be but one result shriveling up.

Good salesmen, first-class articles, gilt-edged credit are not enough. They are excel. eut, necessary but not enough. Printers' ink beats them iu the long run. Uncle Sam's mails go every day, carrying their freight of special offers, new crops, long credits, cash discounts, job lota aud lovers' tales from everywhere.

It's the old story of the oneyed tongue and the open ear. In the fierce competition of these days old habits and associates simply cannot stand the pressure. The trade is for the man who uses printers' ink. Exchange. For Rent.

Something About "Fake" Advertls- It is astonishing how mauy business men can be talked into taking space in a chart or frame or register or some other thing that has no excuse for ex istence. A schemer will get more for his worthless card than the publisher of a weekly paper with a good circula tion would expect for a whole month's insertion.

It is people who have been thus duped that complain that advertising does not pay. As there, seems to oe no way to stop these mushroom schemes from coming up in the dark, or to prevent gullible advertisers from investing in them, the most effective method that can be persistently urged is that merchants require the schemer to make his offer in writing, and state how many copies he is to is sue and where they are to be distrib uted; then before he pays the bill com pel proof to be furnished that the work has been done. Nine out of the leu schemers woald be killed off if this test was strictly applied. Chenoa Gazette. Don't Scatter.

The Durham Sun says there are numbers of merchants who seem to think that it is not necessary to advertise their business. They act upon the assumption that people know, or ought to know, wfiere they are and what they sell.

Advertising their business, they think, is an expense they ought uot to he obliged to incur. This is very foolish. The newspaper is the best friend of both the merchant and the customer, and every good word it carries from the former to the latter is worth many times what it costs. Then, toe, you should not expect the publisher to give away his space any more than you ex pect the merchant to give away. his goods.

He had arranged with the clerk that the latter was to give out the notice immediately after the sermon. The clerk, however, had a uotice of his own to give out with reference to the baptism of infants. Accordingly at the end of the sermon he. arose and announced: "All those who have children whom they wish baptized are requested to send their names to the clerk." The minister who was very deaf, assuming that the clerk was giving out the hymn book notice, immediately rose and said: "And I should like to say for the benefit of those who haven't any that they may be obtained in the vestry any day from three to four o'clock; the ordinary little ones at one -dollar e'ach and special ones with red backs at one dollar and four cents."

Speaking of North Carolina he said reminded him of his distinguished friend Senator Vance, one of the ablest and best men he ever kuew a peer among patriots aud statesmen, one whom any State might be proud to claim a man who needed no marble shaft or bronzed image to perpetuate his name and deeds because his memory was enshrined iu the hearts of his people who ever delighted to do him honor as it was ever his highest duty to serve them.

It is during those night carousals that be learns the vulgarisms which will grow to something worse, aud the idea of having so little respect for himself or those around him.

The fond parent, it may be, who allows his or her ten or twelve-year-old boy Jo continually absent himself from home night after night, will some day, when it is too late, have cause to weep, and bitterly too, for neglecting that boy during his tender years.
