It is more fashionable than ever for
ladies to "go a-fishing" this summer. A8
very few women chew tobacco, they can
hold the "worrums for bait" in their
mouths much more conveniently than the
average male angler.

Accidental Drowning,
We learn there was a ease of acci
dental drowning at Mr. John A. Mc
Dowell, Jr's., landing, at Court House
Falls, on the river, on Monday evening
last. The victim was. a young 'colored
man about' 20 .years ot age, whose name
we could not learn, and the accident oc
curred, it seems, by his own persistence
in walking down the bluff to the falls af
ter being cautioned against it. He fell
over the falls into, the river and was not
seen any more until his body was recov
ered yesterday afternoon.

Haunted 31 e.
A Workingman says: "Debt, pover
ty and suffering haunted me for years,
caused by a sick family and large bills
for doctoring, which did no good. I was
completely discouraged,- until one year
ago, by the advice of my pastor; I pro
cured Hop Bitters and commenced their
use, and in one month we were all well,
and none of ns have been sick a day
since; and. I nt to say to all poor men,
you can keep your families well a year
with Hop Bitters for less than one doc
tor's visit 'will cost." Christian Advocate.
' ' Women are said to have stronger at
tachments than men. It is evinced in
little things. A man is often attached
to an old hat; but did you ever know of a
woman having an attachment for an old
