All preparations a.re being ma.de ma.de for a grea.t business. We a.re putting forth every effort to make this the best and most popula.r establishment of its kind in this section. Miss Robinson, Our Trimmer. We ha-ving had several years experience in the Millinery business before, and knowing personally the heads of severa.1 of New York's argest and best Millinery houses, we told them last season that we would open a New Millinery Department this season and expected to cater to the best trade, and, knowing the tastes of Charlotte women and their quick judgment as to correct styles, etc., we told them to look out for the best talent in the trade, regardless of price. Miss Robinson was mosthighly recommend ed to us by every one. She has successfully managed for sev eral years the leading and most up-to-date Millinery establishments in some of the largest cities in the South. In every place she now sends a great number of fine Hats every season to some of the best trade who rely on her taste and skill to get up their Hats This speaks for itself as to how she pleased. A Carefully Selected Stock Brnd New Millinery. Everything will be new here. Nothing bu this Season's Most Fashionable Things were brought on. We will show the greatest variety and the most complete assortment of fine Millinery ever displayed in a Charlotte store. The development of fashions seems con stantly progressive toward beauty. The present season's styles are more charming, more artistic, more beautiful.than ever before we might say the styles are more elaborate than ever before though the beauty is so beautiful that the Hats seem quite simple. They will be shown in gooi time for every one to get a new bonnet for Easter. e ive oo HAPPENINGS IN THE REALM OF oclety Mrs. W. L.. Stewart gave a delightful dining yesterday at which were pres ent Mesdames A. Coke Smith, J. R. Brooks. E. C. Register. W H. reith. C. Kennedy, Mary Asbury. S. J. Asbury, T. D. Hotchkiss and W. 0. Nesbit. This was a Dartv hound to gether by more than ordinary social ties being closely unit-ad in church work. An entertainment will be given this evening at 8 o'clock at Brevard Street Methodist church by the Epworth League. All of the friends of the church are expected to be present but it is a pay affair and the admission will be three cents for every foot high you are and one cent for every inch over. Tall people will be especially wel come. Refreshments will be served and a general good time is anticipated. The New England States do not seem to be encouraging the woman suffragists very much as was clearly shown by the defeat of the suffrage amendment to the New Hampshire Constitution last week. Rhode Island and the other States of that section agree with New Hampshire. It is very different in the West where in Wyoming for instance women have been voting since 1869t The Constitu tion of that State provides that the rights of its citizens to hold office shall not be denied or abridged on account of sex. The Southern women do not want to vote and womans' suffrage finds no ad vocates in this section. Southern ideals of woman are very distinct and while the type is gradually becoming a high er one there is no radical change in it. Down here as a rule the men have politics and the women religion. Now in Charlotte you never hear the woman crying out for the ballot. Their voice in politics is heard through the men. That they have great influence in civic matters is proven by the fear of them manifested by candidates for office. There is one old maid in Charlotte, however, who is a rampant politician. It is not improbable that since Mr. Lee S. Overman has become Senator this old maid will go to Washington for the purpose of getting her bill into Con gress of course she will do the lobby ing and it will be far livelier than that done, recently by the advocates of Christian Science. Now this old maid doesn't care to vote but she has read of a Utopian country where all old bachelors are taxed. This idea has made her a politician and the main motive of her existence today is the hope cherished through many long years of being, able to prevail upon Congress to pass a law taxing the old bachelors for the benefit of the old maids. It does not accord with the Southern ideal for a woman to work for her living and if this bill is passed by Congress women can withdraw from the commercial field and devote themselves to religious, domestic, literary, charitable, etc., pursuits. soooootooooooiooooc THEATRE Mr. Andrew Robson, who appears at the Academy tonight in Richard Car vel," delighted a large audience in Greenville Tuesday night. The Green ville News has the following compli mentary notice to Mr. Robson and his company: "Richard Carvel" as Andrew Robson and his capable company produced it at the Grand Opera House last night is a charming and wholesome romantic drama, and to say that the audience was delighted is but putting it mildly. Mr. Robson in the title role acted with an effectiveness and artistic expression that is admirable. His impersonation of Winston Churchill's hero was per fection itself. He has a splendid voice and an imposing manner that is part and parcel of a finished actor. A finer production has not been seen here this season. There was not a moment dur ing the action cf the play when it lag ged. The beautiful mountings were complete and the costuming unusually fine and accurate. A large fashionable audience was present and the star was gretted with encores after the curtain had dropped on each act. The thrilling climax at the conclusion of the third act is as fine a piece of stagecraft as was ever witnessed on the local stage. Miss Brothers made a pretty Dorthy, and Bella Clark as Patty Swain, was delightful. Miss Grace Van Studdiford is the prima donna of the Bcstonians this season, and will sing the principal so prano role in the elaborate production of "Robin Hood" which will take place at the Academy of Music next Tuesday night. The Sky Pilot. Albert Armstrong of "Picture Play" fame is in the city and ready to give "The Sky Pilot" at the College Audi torium tonight. The Jamestown Post says of this en tertainment: "A large audience brav ed the extreme cold last night and were moie than repaid in listening to the beautiful story of 'The Sky Pilot,' written by Ralph Connor. The scene is laid in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, the lecture be ing illustrated with life-like pictures taken by Mr. Armstrong in the same region. This number was de clared by all to have been well worth the price of the whole course." Reserved seats and gallery tickets may be obtained at the door. There's quite a slump in railways, but rivers are quoted higher. Boston Herald. TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY Take Laxative Bromo-Quinine Tablets. This signature rQff on every tox A MAN CAN swirn in shackles. It isn't a question of his winning a race, but a question of being able only to keep afloat. The man who is suffering from malnutrition is like the fettered swimmer. His stomach and its allied organs of digestion and nutri tion are diseased. It is not a question with him of winning in the race for busi ness but of simply keepiug up under any circumstances. Whenever disease affects the stomach it is affecting also the blood and the health, of every or gan of the body. For blood is only food converted into nutrition and nutri tion is the life of the body and every organ of it. Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discover' cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutri tion. It purifies the blood and enables the perfect nutrition of the body which means pertect health. "For six long years I suffered with indiges tion and ray liver and kidneys, which baffled the best doctors in our country," writes E. I,. Rnu sell. Ksq.. of Woolsev, Prince William Co.. Va. " I suffered with my stomach and back for a long I time, and alter taking a cart-load or medicine from three doctors I grew so bad I could hardly do a day's work. Would have death like pains in the side, and blind spells. I began taking Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and 'Pleasant Pellets.' Before I had taken half of the second bottle I began to feel relieved. I got six more bottles and used them, and am happy to say I owe my life to Dr. Pierce." Accept no substitute for " Golden Med ical Discovery." There is nothing "just as good " for diseases of the stomach, blood and lungs.
