Our market is active on all grades with character and color. Fancy wrappers and cutters are in great demand at limb onces. There were large breaks at the Farm ers and Carter s warehouses today. From HuslotiM Standpoint As to the moral side of tbe Keelev cure for drunkenness and the opiom habit tiiere can be no discussion. Let's look at it from a business standpoint. A graduate of tbe institute at Greensboro writes: "It is now twelve months since I was cured. For twenty years before my cure 1 never made a dollar. During the past year I have made a support and nave iji-Hio by me besides. Ap ply this to every day hie. Sav that there are 10,000 men addicted to" drink in North Carolina men who arc unlit ten tor business consumers, not pro ducers. Let them take advantage of the Keeley cure and a simple calculation will show that $4,000,000 has been added to tbe wealth ot the State where not penny was made before. Do vou know oi any investment, besides the great good it does, and the happiness it brums that pays so well as the small sum paid to the institute at Greensboro lor the treatment ol drunkenness? lay Gould's dollars don't bother us.

"Lizzie Evans will never sec the day when her popularity in Atlanta and the entire Southland shall lade.
