Pooro, on last Monday, fell from a bicycle and broke his left arm. The little fellow is getting along nicely. The work of erecting the city's large steel tank, on Lebanan Hill, is progressing rapidly under the direction ot a force of experts and it is ex pected to be in use inside of three weeks. The farmers have burned a few ! lant beds and preparing for tin unusually large crop of tob.icc > next ser.s m. The r cent hig'.i i ik'es insures a larger crop average than in previous years. The tobacco crop of this seeii* r, is practically sold and the warehouses are almost deserted. The local market has hardly hi !d its own, this season, but the price has made up for the shortage in pounds. Constable Frank Walker lias returned from the mountains where he went with a posse in search of Frank Brooks and the Todd brothers who are wanted by the government, lie believes that the outlaws are still in the mountains and are being hidden by their friends. As an indication o? the rapid growth of the furniture interests, in this section, one of the load ing factories proposes to add forty employes this week. The demand for the Mt. Airy pr >duct makes this necessary and is a sample of what all the local fac tories can do. Mrs. Hubaon. who resigned as pastor >f the Friends church in this city and will leave for Europe next Monday, will con duct her last service next Sun day night.

Will you, an independent man, go ahead selling at some other house when you are losing money this way? Shake off the yoke and sell where you get the most money. These are not our figures but the official reports made to President of Board of Trade. We hear that it has been intimated that we are not lead- ing in average. Look these figures over and then ask any one to deny them. We sell tobacco and can produce the goods. Be not deceived. Come on and sell the balance of your crop at / Brown's. The big sales are over. In fact the crop is nearly sold, s-> you can sell at Brown's on first or second sale early and it is a duty you owe yourself , to come on to Brown's. We would advise you to sell now.
