and instead -of being satisfied with fixing-
their profits in decimals and

to advantage to make the concession

it is almost as common to see 99 and

The Why and Wherefore.
There is nothing; marvelous in the
fact that Hood's Sarsaparilla should
cure so many diseases. When you
remember that a majority of the dis
orders "flesh is heir to" are due to
impure or poisonous condition of the
blood, and that Hood's Sarsaparilla
is an effective and radical purifier, the
whole thing is explained. ;
Besides its blood purifying quali
ties, Hood's Sarsaparilla also con
tains the best known vegetable stom
ach tonics, diuretics, kidney remedies
and liver invigorants, and is thus an
excellent specific Ior all disorders of
these organs, as well as for low con
dition of the system or That Tired
Feeling.
An editor wrote a ball-room puff,
saying: "Her dainty feet were en
cased in shoes that might be taken
for fairy boots." But the blundering
compositor made it read : "Her dir
ty feet were encased in shoes that
might be taken for ferry-boats."

BISHOP FITZGERALD TALKS.
Distinjjnlslied Georgia Divine Preaches to a
Large Audience in North Carolina.
Geekxsi:obo, N. C. June 8. The
commencement exercises at the Greens
boro Female college were formally
opened yesterday by the baccalaureate
sermon by Bishop Fitzgerald, of Atlan
ta. The speaker took for his text,
"Iler price is far above rubies." The
bishop devoted a great deal of his time
to a protest against woman's suffrage,
yet he spoke in the most respectful and
loving manner of the women of the
Bible. He said that no advance in civ
ilization can ever excuse female- suf
frage. The sermon was full of good
advice and not calculated to huit tlfe
feelings of any one.

clothes in honor of her institution of
learning. Most of the business houses

COLLAPSE OF A WAREHOUSE.
Too Heavily Stored With "Wheat and It

Chatvaxoosa, June 11. The large
grain warehouse of J, T. Thoraasoii &
Co., covering almost an acre of ground,
gave away yosteilay and the building
of corrugated iron is a complete wreck.
The loss will approximate 10,000. At
the time,'60,000 bushels of grain were
stored in the building. The side of the
house adjoining the railway yards had
been unequally packed with grain and
the great weight threw the structure
oif its foundation. Falling against cars
loaded with pig iron, they were lifted
off the track. The entire roof fell in
and one. side was disman tled.

A mo ;t amusing incident was wit
: . ...:d the special train of the Sea
board Air Line at Raleigh last week
on the occasion of the laying o; the
corner stone of the Confederate mon
ument. A young lady was aboard, -whose
attractive and winning ways,
made her the cynosure of all eyes.
Just as the -conductor shouted all
aboard and the train began to pull
out, two handsome young men
rushed aboard to say good-bye to the
charming., little fairy. One was a
brother, and the other was, well, one
who wanted to be more than a
brother. '
In the hurry and confusion oi say
ing good-bye, and intending, of
course, to kiss her brother she kissed
the other man, and then, her beauti
ful face suffused with blushes, she
said, "Oh, what have I done, I in
tended to kiss brother Will." The
young man remarked that he would
willingly give the kis3 back if she de
sired it, but she refused to accept,
and saying she had just one more left,
she fondly give that to her brother,
and as the two young men left the
train she sat down and laughed until
the tears streamed down her cheeks.

Oxford Orphan Asylum is situated
at that place, and is the. property of

Masonry in this State. They ought
to be fully acquainted . with their
property see how it is being con-
ducted and what it is doing:. The
Orphan Asylum is one of the great
est factors in the State to do good in
the best way, to those who, without
its beneficent influence, would bring
dishonor instead of credit.
