He has nbout completed the work and is in Raleigh. . He says thnt the water supply is de? ficient, ami that the water is inferior to that m the western and central por? tions of the Slate, but that the deep well is the solution or the water sup? ply problem In the East.

Shaffer says there arc 23 towns in North Carolina that have water? works. The finest water Is that from the ar? tesian well at Monroe; it contains both sulphur and lithia. At Wilmington the attempt to have a deep well seems to be a failure. The well is now 1,300 feet deep nnd the water is almost as salty as when they first struck Hie brine.

HEART Every day adds to the list of deaths attributed to heart failure. If the truth were told the bulk of these deaths might be written down as ?lue to stomach failure. Vox it is in the failure of the stomnch and other organs of digestion and nutrition, that "weak" heart, " weak " lungs, " weak " nerves and other forms of physicial deterioration having their"beginning. The man whose stomach is sound, who can digest and assimilate the food lie eats, and so keep each organ of the body well nourished, is the man who is least liable to collapse under the sudden weakness of some vital organ. The preservation of health which fol? lows the use of Dr. Tierce's Golden Medical Discovery, is chiefly due to the fact that it perfectly and permanently cures diseases of the stomach aud organs of digestion and nutrition, purifies the blood and increases the blood supply of the liody. Weak people will find in this medicine a sure means of strength. "I w?s under doctors' care for quite a lime." writes Mr. J. V. Kirfd, of Parmlev.sville, Wayne Co., Ky. "They had almost given me up. and my MuTerius; was very great. My pulse was weak, breath short and I had severe pains in back, head aud legs. Had palpitation of heart, nml forvCleven months I was not able to do a day's work. 1 purchased five bottles of Dr. K. V. Piercc's OoMen Medical Discovery and by the time the fifth bottle was gone 1 was a well man." Dr. Pierce's Pellets regulate the liver. StUGfl in Tims saves nine_^_.
