DIAMOND DYES THE SIMPLEST AND EAST
EST WAY OF HOME DYEING.
Their Greai Superiority Over Aii Other Ways
of Heme Dyeing. A fen*Cent Package
Will Color from One to Five Poundsjof
Goods. Colors Pat Will Not Wash Out in
Strong Soapsuds.
Success in home dyeing depends wholly
upon the kina of dyes used. With Diu
maud Dyes, if the simple directions on
ire package are followed carefully, an .
the special dyes for cotton a rousted F oi
eoit. a and mixed goods, and the woo!
dyes used for woolen, there is absolutely
no chance of failure.
Diamond Dyes are very simple and
easy to use, and by using a stick t .
lift the goods while in the dye bath,
there is no need of soiling the hands.
For beauty, brilliancy, and fastness, n<
other dye stuffs, whether for home us
of for the dye-shop, equal the Diamond.
The latent scientific discoveries are use !
in their manufacture, they are guaran
teeed the strongest and fastest of ai!
known dyes, and their solid colors wii!
not wash out in the strongest soap-suds,
nor will they fade when exposed to tie
sunlight.
Try Diamond Dyes once, and see how
(asy it is to make old and faded dresses
wai(;ls, ribbons, coats, etc. look like
new.

GOVERNOR OF NEW YORK.
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES.
\Ve do not claim to be Prophets.
Through our Highland descent we are
entitled to the gift of “Second Sight,”
and the “Scotch Gloom,” Already the
Gloom is lifting, and our Second Sight
has satisfied us that we know the man.
You will wonder what this has to
do with keeping a Grocery Shop in
Raleigh, and liaising unions and Turnip
Salad in Geranium V'alley.
We admit that "Tis a Far Cry to
Uganda” and may be to New York,
lmt it is a great satisfaction to know
that in the near future a Gentleman,
Straight and True, is to occupy those
honorable positions.
In the Grocery Shop we chow our
Slippery-Elm in great comfort, and lis
ten to die Jaw r of a possible customer
with unwearied patience. When we are
working in The Valley one Onions have
a more delicate Perfume, and the Salad
a greener hue for the thought of it.
We have not named our man. but
there will be many a chiel takin’ notes
of him very soon.
The Scotch are a Conceited race and
unless they be Lawyers charge nothing
for their Opinion.
We think we have the nicest Grocery
Shop in the State.
We sell first class Goods as cheap as
is possiole to i-o.
We guarantee them to please, and
you do us a kindness by letting us>
know, when there is cause for complaint.
