It was seemingly a hoprle-ss case, and might have been, onlv for a demure: "Charley, 1 have said "yes' l«w. and if you mean it, I mean it too., and —" And to this day the young man will insist th.it he pupped the |iK--* tiou. All this happened away" "down East," and it « ,m'l long liefon there was a wedding. Xot nmcli longer before there came a letter from Polly's uncle. Josh, down here j in the Old North St.ste. who wrote : effusively at her exhibition of what j he called ""grit." and he propu\d that if the young people would lo cate at Wilii.ua-.ton he would start them up in lite as a wedding gift, and at the same time give tSicin a lot of good practical advice, of course they accepted, and were bid ding their friends- adieu Subsequent to the above invit.i tion'Uncle Jr>h vi-iUd Williatustoii and called on A. H WTiitmore. tin president of the WiiliarMon Lam! and Improvement Company, who. with a diagram of their concessions, easily convinced trie old gentleman that their k>t> are chi'lot* re-uleiKx sites, antl as the U-rai> were very favorable Uncle Jotdi was not king in striking a trade His next man to « was Mr Latham Thrower, the Contractor and Builder Having &en so much ; of the handsome- work in that iim j executed by Latham Thrower, lu I was easily convinced tint he would | make no mistake by entrusting the I building of his neiece's home to Mr. J Thrower. After carefully exam-1 ining the plans, made Uncle Josh an estimate which laterally took the "old man" by surjwise, as lie had no idea that work executed in the manner and style as Thrower is reported of doing, could be guaranteed a turn key-job—at any snch price. Mr. Thtfwcr gave him torunderstand that lie »iv|n« pared to make contracts for; iukT build all classes of wood or brick, and that hts prices are as reasonable as is consistent with first-class work, suffice it to say that Uncle Josh awarded the contract to Mr. Thrower. The next thing was to see a first I class tinner and of course George R. Dixon was the man. he being an expert in this line of work. He was given the contract to do all the roofing, roofing-painting and gut tering for Polly's House Uncle Josh also left an order for a supply of Tobacco flues for his own use, the low price and superior woik having convinced the "old man" that Mr. Dixon leads in the Hue business. Mr. Dixon gave Uncle Josh to understand that his head quarters were at Rocky Mount, but that after April theflrM. next year Wattld be permanently located here. Early next morning a travel- Stained party arrived at William atou. Our /nctwi. Uncle Jo--h, was in charge * and he led the party Straightway to a hotel. "The-Has ■ell House, " said he. "is at typical, Southern HoteToF tfie IfcstTclass. I have known W. A. jones. the proprietor. for years and be is mine host after mine own heart. A thorough business man, endowed with that delightful intuition that i»u>kes a guest feel at honw, com for table, contented, and in mighty' good luck. The house is one of rJMNaicaee; the ajartments arc well furnished; the cuisine all that a j superior chef and unlimited orders on the market can make. I have engaged rooms here for you to occu py until your house is, in readiness. "After breakfast," said the old man, "I am ready to go and buy your outfit. To expedite matter* I . have ordered a carriage from Gus. ■ Johnson, our enterprising livery ' man." When the handsome car riage. with elaliorate trappings and | prancing horses drew up in front of "The lla.shell House." Polly de ! dared it the finest tuniont she had ' ever seen. "Yes," replied Uncle. Josh, "the three S's, 'Speed, Safetyj t and Style,'is Gus. Jolm-on's mnt i- to. So, yoting folks, when you| want to take a drive, either fori 1 business or pleasure, go to him for - a rig every time. He also sells t every kind of vehicle, can fnrat-di harness in a bargain and is satis ' fied with a moderate profit, too."* " (Charley afterwards paid a visit to bis establishment and found things, i just as Uncle Jo-h predicted. ■ "I have already pro." ided yon with a cage for your bird." said. Uncle Josh, ' and now the first! • thing we'll look after will I* the furnishings for it." Hereupon Pol-! • ly energetically declared that she ■ had heard so much about C. D. Carstarphen, the up-to date Fnrni-j • ture dealer, that she had decided to go there. The result was that they were ushered into such a be wildering display that the girl was at first at a lo*s how to select. But she soon yielded to the seductive ness of a magnificent parlor suite, a - bed-room set, golden oak lint-.h. | . that would have done credit to old j Antiquity herself. To this she added I 1 a dining room set with all access**-1 ries, ami didn't forget a most con venient and ornamental writing r desk for "llubby" Charles. "A pretty good start," said the] r old man, "and now we'll go to thel establishment of Eli Gurganus."l Polly's housewifely instincts bad] 5 full play ill marvels of kitchen ap-1 paratus. Every possible piece ofl kitchen furniture, from a tin dip-| per to a cooking range is here in all I styles and variety. If Polly fads to! r accomplish wonders in the culinary I art, it will not IK.- for waut of super- 1 t ior cooking utensils, for she pur-J | chased an up-to-date cook stove[ . with all equipments needed in a well I regulated kitchen, besides a Stand j aril sewing machine. After Polly j had finished her purchases Uncle j , Josh talked with Mr. Gnrganusj aliout builder's materials, ;uints ! glass, farming inipleiiietits. gun>. I , ammutiitiou general hardware] . in which this firm leads. "By the way," said Uncle "let nie- step down the street and) .Jsee,C»eo. \V. Newell a!>nit the! , j deed for the lot i presented to you;'" j j ami turning to Charley the old man J continued: "Mr. Newell is themo>t j conscientious lawyer I ever had tol deal with. Upon his advice you can{ rely every time. He practices in iltT I State and Federal court-.and makc-si jh sjK-cialfy of seenrihg bond* f«»rj I guardians and administrators."

After! securing the deed, properly recorded! the Visitors took their departure. I well pleased with the lawyer and! the neat office. Passing up Main -treet Uncle Josh J cried: "Halt!" as the party came] in front of S. R. liiggs' drilg store. | "Walk right in." "Whv Uncle-.j I we're not sick, aiul—"Guess I, 'i.now that, but 1 suspect it won't j |be long lie fore this young man lie-j. 1 gins to takt* an interest in matters] j of paregoric and— *' "U-n-c-l-e!"|' t"Well, go hi anyway; I'ollv may] ] find some toilet articles she wants, j Sure enough before leaving she was ] loaded down with com lis, brushes, j face jiowders anil ounces upon i ounces of fine nnj>orte»l |>erfumes. j Don't forget." added Uncle Josh.

Tberenjioii the old 1 man gallantly acquitted himself of the promise and then directed Pollys ' attention to the superior stock of 1 silverware carried by this house. ' "There is no other such house in I town," saiil the old man. "and I ' will guarantee the quality to be the ' very best. Pick your family clock]' while here," he added. "Herbertj" Peel carries a magnificent line. "]' "Dont forget another fact."he con-1 tinned, "if ever you unfortunately r j need optical gtxxls this is the placer jto come.

Uncle Josh had his measure taken for a fine orer | coat by W. S. Harris, whol with samples and fashion plates convin ced the old man that Strauss Bros, fine clothing is a pleasure to wear. Continuing their movements the . parly was attarcted by a handsome I display of shoes at X. S. Fed & f, Co's. and upon Uncle Josh's sug .J gesoous all went in. ' "Their stock I'of shoes can not be equalled in the .'country." he remarked. It might - have been policy not to have ex | tended that invitation had not Un ,. cle Josh known what wise economy ! it is to trade there, for Polly found ' goods and prices so seductive that ishc purchased an outfit from a ij walking slipper to a handsome ] walking boot of the celebrated • j "Juamta" make; Charley invested , in a pair each of "William Richaid . son's "Top Notch" and 'Rancocns" | gent s fine shoes, while Uncle Josh | indluged in a stout farm boot. No I one needing footwear can resist the , | styles and prices offered there. Un .l cle*Josh told Charley that N. S. . Peel & Co. are buyers of country . I produce, also cotton and peanuts.

They were visited at their r offike in the Enterprise Building, ■ and Charlie had six of the most re 1 liable insurance companies in the I land tc select from.
