THE HENDERSON GOLD .LEAF THURSDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1890. QOZLOD XjTFI.A.IF1. HENDERSON, N. C. THURSDAY, DEC. 25, 1890. ST. NICK'S VISIT. Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house, Not a creature wm stirring, not even a moose' The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, la hopes that St. Nicholas noon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugar plurns'danced in their heads. And mamma in her kerchief and I in my cap, Had just settled our brains for along winter's nap When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter. Awav to the window T flow libu a float. Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash; The moon ou the breast of the new fallen snow, (lave a lustre of mid-day to objects below; When, what to my wandering eyes should appear, But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer. With a little old driver, ho lively and o,uick, I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick. More rapid than eagles his coursers they came. And he whistled and shouted and called them by name : "Now Dasher! Now Dancer! Now Pran- cer and Vixen ! On Comet! ou Cupid! on Donder and Tilitzonf -f To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall ! Now dash away, dash away, dash away -11.1 aiu As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, When they meet with an obstacle, mount, tn t h ufe-v - j i Ho up 'to the house-tops the coursers At a iuey new With the sleigh fu'I of toys, and St. Nicholas too. And then in a t winkling I heard on the roof The prancing and pawing of each little hoof. As I drew. in my head, and was turning around, - Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound. He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot, And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot. A bundle of toys he had flung on his back, And he looked like a eddier just open ing his pack. His eyes, how they twinkled, his dimples how merry! nis cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherrr. His droll little uiouih drawn up like a bow, And the beard on 'as as white as the snow. A stumoof a Dine ght in his teeth. And the smoLj like a wrentH encircled his head He had a broad face and a round littlt belly That shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly. He was chubby and plump a right jolly old elf, And I laughed, when 1 saw him, in spite of myself. A wink of his eye and a twist of his head Soon gave me to know I hud nothing to dread. Ho spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, And tilled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk; And laying his finger aside of his nose And giving a nod, up thechimney he rose. He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, And away they all flew like the down of a thistle, Dut I beard him exclaim as he drove out of sight, "nappy Christmas to all, and to all a good nightf Nothing Religious.

It is strange, passing strange, that so little is known in the outside world,, of the wonderful resources of Eastern North Carolina. No other country of fers greater inducements to the cap italist seeking investment for his money, or the industrious man of small means who wishes to invest his little all, in a country that will guarantee him the greatest return. Rich in the wonderful wealth of forest, rich in vast fisheries and, better than all, its agricu tural interests the most profitable in in the world. Let the capitalist come and see for himself and he will become quickly convinced that judicious invest ments will bring him in greater and surer returns than anywhere else he can invest money. Let the man of moderate means, carefully examine into our resources and he will surely be convinced that in no other country can he cast his lot, where wealth will more surely follow energy and iudustry Nashville Argonaut. GROVER CLEVELAND. The Wilmington Messenger says: The papers all over the country con continue to give expression favorable to the nominatian of Mr. Cleveland in 1892. The New York Commercial-Advertiser, New York Times, St. Ixmis Republic, Chicago Herald, Nor folk Virginian, Memphis Avalanche, Brooklyn Eagle, and Kansas City Times and others not heretofore named are among them. It h plain enough as the Richmond Times says, that there are "imperative reasons for the re election of trover Cleveland." The Commercial Advertiser but states a fact when it says: "It was the leaven of his work that has placed the Democratic party to-day in the position of strength that it has never before enjoyed. To perpetuate and add to his strength is the duty of the hour. The unselfish devotion to great principles, to which the party at large has been brought again, is it salvation in the future. The Men for a Town. The only men of worth to a town or community are those who forget their own selfish ends long enough, and who are liberal enough in their ideas, to enconrage every public and private enterprisejto push all projects calculated to build up the town and enhance its importance. The enterprise and push of a town or community is the foundation of its permanent success. A 'town may as well prepare for its funeral as to become indifferent to the enterprsesin its midst. Men who can not look far enough before them to see that money placed judiciously in a public enterprise will bear a hundred fold in the appreciation of their prop erty are to be pitied. They are not the men to put their shoulder to the wheel and build up the town. They are the class who are ready to take all they can of some one else's building enterdrise, but they are not willing to do anything themselves. Roanoke Netvs. About Advertising. An expert on the subject of adver tising throws out the following sug gestions which are worth considering and acting upon by intelligent business men : Always move a little ahead of the trade. As one local advertiser is wont to say: "Anticipate their wants." Don't wait until Christmas before you advertise holiday goods. Always get in your announcements in due season. Your business won't move along un less you keep pushing it. One way to push it is by advertising. Select a newspaper with a large and growing circulation, and then use its columns liberally intelligently. Wriet your advertisement in good style adopt new and "catchy" ideas you want it to attract attention, and then change, it occasionally. Dm't put an adver tisement in the paper and never bother yourself about it again. Give it your careful thought and attention just as you do your business. Leave nothing to what is called "luck," and you will always be what is called "lucky." Don't be a CJrumbler. Says the Berkley Graphic: Don't be a grumbler. Some people contrive to get hold of the prickly side of everything, to run agaiust all the sharp corners and disagreeable things, says an exchange. Half the expense 6pent in growling would often set things right. You may as well make up your mind to begin with, that no one ever found the world quite as he would like it ; but you are to take your part of the trouble and bear it bravely. You will be sure to have burdens laid upon you that belong to other people, nless you are a shirker yourself; but 't grumble. If the work needs g and you can do it, never mind t the other who ought to have it and didn't. Those workers upthe gaps and smooth away nd finish up the jobs undone they are the and worth a whole uinity. Tbe Best Paying Advertising: Mediums. Advertfcments in the local papers especially in those that have the largest and most composite constituencies that are read by rich and poor, by city and country people, by farmers, merchants, tradesmen, mechanics and laborers, by men and women of all conditionsare the best paying advertising mediums for any busfness house to use in intro ducing a new article to popular favor, or in extending the sale of an old one. Once call the attention of the people generally, without distinction of locality or class to the merits of whatever you have to sHl, and you will experience no difficulty in finding ready customers Boston Globe.

The performance of Madame Fry's Concert Company at Burwell Hall, Saturday evening, December 27th, will be an event of rare pleasure to our music-loving citizens. From the pros pectus we take the following concern ing these lady artists : Madame'Fry is a very talented and pleasing vocalist, and her execution on violoncello at once pronounces her a mu sician of great genious and excellence. Iler appearance on the stage combines elegance, dignity, and grandeur. Miss Lula Fry. Flute Soloist, has re ceived every where flattering testimonials on the correctness of her technique, pure tone, and elegant phrasing. The beauty and artistic finish of her solos wins for her deepest admiration. She is also a Contralto Singer. Her voiee is sweet and sympathetic, her manner magnetic, and she renders her songs in a charming style. Miss Eugenia Fry is the Prima-Donna Sopranaofthe Company. Her voice is high, pure, and sweet; her songs both clas sic and popular, have been selected with care and taste to please her andiances, She is beautiful, and her manner is very pleasing. Miss Alta Fry, youngest of the sisters has attajned a high degree of perfection on that wonderful instrument, "The King of Instruments," and her violin solos are executed superbly. Although a young artist, those before whom she appears must at once acknowledge her superior force of character, her gentleness of man ner, and her determined purpose to at tain to the highest perfection of the art. She is a universal favorite. Miss Bertha Cheny, Reader, Dramatic, Humorous, and Pathetic. She is indorsed by the most intelligent and eultured peo ple who know her. 'Sbe has a pleasing stage presence, and a voice that portrays the intense passions of joy and grief ad mirably." Lockport, N. Y., Journal. Keep Posted and Prosper.

It is a fact.

Ten cents a month, 3 months 25 cents, or 75 cents a year. Attend to this at once. ''Consistency, Thou Arta Jewel." It would not be advisable for a drug gist to advertise "ice-cold soda" in January, nor "artic overshoes" for the jetail trade to be pushed with much en ergy in June: but outside of a few ar ticles which have their season, it is ad mitted by the most consistent adver tisers that the best time to advertise is all the time. A friend of ours in a neighboring town has put into prose a sentiment that deserves poetic mention. He says "How dear to the heart is the old yel low pumpkin, when orchards are barren of stuffin' for pies, when peaches and apples have both been a failure, and berries of no kind have greeted the eyes. How fondly we turn to the fruit of the cornfield, the fruit that our chil dren are taught to despise; the old yel low pumpkin, the mud covered pump kin, the big bellied pumpkin that make such good pies." Ohio Patriot. Local newspapers are as much a part of our civilization as our schools and churches. They haye followed the footsteps of civilization everywhere, exerting a powerful influence in build ing communities and fostering indus tries. The history of a town, in a business sense, at- any rate, usually dates from the advent of its local paper. A town where no such creating influ ence exists is of necessity sleepy. Printer's Review.

Douglas ClaypooL The Car's Lesaoa. During his stay at FTedensburg Prince Albert, a son of H. It. H. the Prince of Wales, diverted himself by tormenting the life out of the czar's favorite dog One day the emperor of Russia, as he passed along the shore of the Lake of Esrom, which bounds the park of ..Fre densbnrg on one side, perceived the young prince in the act of taking up his dog in his arms and throwing him into the water. Half in sport, half in anger, Alexander III, who possesses uncommon muscular strength, went up to the young man who is his nephew, by the by and seizing him by the coat collar threw him into the lake in his turn, say ing: "As you seem to be so food of water, 111 give you a taste of it for once." Since this occurrence Prince Albert has given the czar's pet dog a wide berth. La Morale Amusante. 0 Ancient Cotton t Tale. In the - chapel on either side of the middle aisle sit the dignified seniors, while in other parts are the lower classes. Away up in his high pulpit sits "Prexy" (which is the cognomen that the honor able president goes by). After the serv ice is oyer a most ancient and carious custom takes place, which is both inter esting and amusing to the visitor. As the president leaves the chapel he passes down the middle aisle between the lines of standing senior, who all bow very low at his passage. It is almost funny to see the men double up and , bend almost to the ground, and it is hard to repress a smile. At the end gallery seats are reserved for spectators, and during "Prom." week, when these seats are filled with pretty girls, the point of gen eral interest is generally that end of the chapel and not the other. New Haven Cor. New York Telegram. Best Fodder for Cavalry Horses. ' A series of experiments, made with a view of discovering the best fodder for French cavalry horses, has established the fact that straw and oats are, in rea son, preferable to hay. It appeared that when the ration of hay was reduced, and that of the straw and oats proportion ately increased, the staying power of the horses was much improved; they sweat ed less and bore fatigue better. These experiments have excited much interest in military circles, and it is very gener ally recognized that there is imperative need for a complete and careful study ef the question of cavalry forage. New York Commercial Advertiser. A Bible Three Centuries Old. Mrs. Barbara Miller, who resides at No. 419 East Sixty-first street, has in her possession a very old Bible. It is a Ger man Catholic Bible, and was printed in 1543. The ancient volume is 18 inches long, 9 inches wide and 6 inches thick. The leaves are yellow with age, and would not bear handling. The type used in printing the Bible was made of wood. The book has always been in the family, and has been handed down from one generation to another. Mrs. Miller has frequently been offered good prices for the Bible, but refused to part with it New York World. A Bright Drummer. The drummer who cannot do his share of bragging, and perhaps a little more, is as rare in the community as the black swan of antiquity. The latest specimen of drummer's hyperbole I give here word for word as it was told to me: "You can't begin to conceive of the enormous dimensions of our establishment. Just think of it! We didn't find out until we began to take stock lately that two of our cashiers had been missing for four weeksT Jewelers' Weekly. Respect for Age. Proverbs and sage advice for ; tbe young are perhaps common :enough. Counsel to thtf aged is not so frequent, doubtless because it is not supposed to be so much needed.
