took strong ground against tbe compromise meas

Reports from the various Suuday
Schools show a prosperous condition.
Several questions were discussed which
had for their object the advancement of
the Sunday School and the elevation of
its standard. The manner in which these
questions were discussed by the several

most good feeling existing in the various
Sunday Schools.

THE FOLLY OF WEDDING
TOURS.
It is notorious that a woman will sub
mit to every suffering and undergo every
penalty required by fafhion. She will
sacrifice her beauty and comfort in dress,
and jeopardize her dearest prospects of
life to the requirement ot us ige. A wed
ding tour ruay have untold discomforts ;
it may embarrass her modesty, endanger
her connubial bliss, injure her health, lay
the beginnings of bickerings and differ
ence ; it may have every known disad
vantage, but it will be insisted on if' so
ciety utters iis behests lo that effect. It
is women who are specially anxious thai
marriages should multiply, and yet it is
women who have given the wedding cer
emony such elaboration of display and
loaded it with such costly expenditures,
that. marriage, with a majority of men,
is rendered impossible. Fashion or com
mon senae, or some other power, should
dictate that marriage ceremouic should
be simple and unostentatious, and that
after the ceremony js performed the calm
of some sweet seclusion is absolutely nec
essaiy, not only for the future health of n
wife whose nerves are already overstrain
ed by the excitement of what is to her a
tremendous eyeut, but the. foundation of
an intercourse between the newly mar
ried couple that shall be sweet and lasi
ing. Have any of our people the cour
age to defy usage, aud act according to
their own inclinations at this important
period ?
Yes, let them (the ladies) speak out.
Our columns are open for them ; or we
will register their names a in hook, aud
keep their photographs for the inspection
of gents on the ''look out."
FROM LENIOR TO HICKORY
Ere the god of day silvered the edges of
overhanging clouds, we repaired to the Livery
Stable of Lenior in search of a vechicle to con
vey us to Hickory. We were met by a man
who wore a slouch hat, snd his trousers in his
high boot, who greeted us with, Hello I We
want to go to Hiekory, can you send us? lea
air I this sm the place to get the fast class we-
hickles and dis is de chile to snatch the string.
Well we want to ga, how long before you will
be ready ? We I for gracious sake! where is
we ? I don't see sny body else, is there any
body else to go ? No, wel explained, that is
just a habit we've got of talking. Yes, and its
a mighty bad habit too, be replied, 'spose you
was courting of a gal and say, "we 'love you,"
she would want to know right off who the d
we was! We had to tell him he was right
about that, but would like to know about what

Dexter in his time, but owing to previous exer

an "onward look," which made us think he
had been reaching for something not quite at

declare, you gone 'n took the very best boss in

would escort the press :-iu to Hickory. The music
suited "old purp" exactly, he pranced around
'and made fearful jumps, his blood was up,
here was no denying that fact. He arched
his beautiful neclc, and travelled in a butanes

named after the bridge. "Old purp" persist -

A Double Danger Averted.
The inhabitant of a malarious region is
threatened bv a double danger. He is not
only compelled to breuih miasma-, but to steal'
low it, since it infects not only the atmosphere,
but the water. The aerial poison threatens his
system through the lungs and pores, the liquid
through the stomach. Against this double
peril there ia but one protection, and that is to
invigorate the entire body through the diges
tive and secretive- organs. Ordinary tonics
nsually fail to accomplish this Hos tetter's
Stomach Bitters never. In the tropics, where
the diseases originated by malaria are of a far
more malignant type than those originated by
the same cause in the temperate jtone, it enjoys
immense and constantly increasing sales, and
there is no portion of this continent where it is
not the reigning specific Tor miasmatic fevers
and disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels,
proceeding froni malaria and other causes.
