We bave some extra special values selected from four of tbe largest factory line in the United Kates, and from these lines we selected only tbe cream, hence we believe we bave the best that can be bought and it would be to the interest of all to see our stock before making purchases ele here.

Ai I escaped that waste basket before I will write again, add a lew word on "Borrowed Trouble." How maoj of jou are addicted to thia ple&aure destroying babitl I believe when it baa once become deep seated we may rail it incnrable. We bave real troubles enough, have we not ! And why will we borrow trouble? If we will view this mat ter in the proper light we will no donbt find more of onr real troubles. We cannot avoid onr ahare of real trouble. It it perfectly natural and right that we ahould bave tome trouble in order that our strong hearts may be softened. At I have beard the remark "Lord look down on these bard hearted tinners and soften their hearts." So our hearts need softening. Some times sore trials are essential to soft hearts. I mean by this real troubles This world is what we make it. We can make life a pleasure to ourselves, neighbor! and friends, or on the other band we can make it a burden. One kind word spoken it worth more than a dozen harsh words. I think every one should contribute that which is good, that which will brighten and bices the moet unsuc cessful day. Also we should try in every way we can to lift the burden from tbe hearts of neighbors and friends, perform every little act of kindness that we can and note bow bright the world will appear and bow light our own hearts will feci.

Full instructions and rezu latiooa are printed in the front part ol tbe laaoe. The man who dir covered teleg raphy, according to tho Greensboro Record, is still living and bis Dame is not Mi rso. The Record sayt : It is a matter of history that Mr. J. L Clemmont, of Lexington, dis covered the secret ot telegraphy and that he bad a conversation with Morso on the matter and that in less than three years after this time, Morse perfected tbe system as his own. This has been a long time ago and it will surprise many to know that Mr. Cletninuns is still li viol? 11 is home is in Louisville, Ky., and Mr. W. A. Watson, Sr., formerly ot Lexington, now of this place, is in recoipt of a letter from him in reply to ono written him about the re union to be beld bere in October. Mr. Cleinmona' letter is so interest ing that The Record has been per mitted to publish it. It is of date Augast 24th and follows: "I have received and rettd with pleasure your very interesting letter of 13th inet. Whilo I remember but few of the small boys, I bave a very clear recollection of all tho old citizens and of none more vividly than that of your father. He was the life and inspiration of every crowd he entered ; alwayi jovial and full of fun. 1 suppose, like all the est, he has long since passed away, though 1 never heard of his death. Oaring tbe 53 years that I have been absent from Lexington, death has cut a wide swathe and left but ittle stubble behind bim in the town of Lexington. About 15 years sgo 1 made a short visit to my old home and was appalled at the clean sweep be had made of the entire old popu lation and felt as if alone in a grave yard. As to the general progress of the town and county I have kept myself pretty well posted for the last 20 years by reading tbe Dis patch from week to week. I am glad to believe that great improve ments bave been rosde and are now being made in the refinements of lite and material prosperity of both towu-od. wipntv, When! left North Carolina tbe tow.nf.

"Yon seem to be engaged in man utactnring and I trust are doing well. Yon must now be over 60 years of sgo, which seems strange, as you were only a boy when I saw you last. I suppose the Clemraons tamily is now about extinct in North Carolina, though quite a number mav be found in Indiana. Illinois and California. I am alone in Ken tucky except one sister, with whom reside. My wife died 14 years ago and all my children are dead. I am very old, iost closing my 90th year, but thank God.have always had excellent health and am now with out disease or symptoms of disease, and strong both physically and mentally. It will surprise yon when I tell you that 1 have not been put in bed by sickness in 70 years. While 1 have been subject to the vicissi tudes common to all men in my long history, I have generally passed the way smoothly and am now enjoying a lite ol ease and independence. Though not as particular in my morals as I ought to bave been when a resident of Lexington I bave been a member of the Christian church for 50 yeart and have tried to live up to my calling. I know that I have not long to atay but do not al low tbe near departure to give me much trouble or thought. With my best wishes for your health and prosperity, "I am truly yours, "J. L CLKsmoNS."

It was the regular morning company of "drunks and disorderlies." Some were old and hardened, others hung their heads in shame. Just as the momentary disorder attonding the bringing In ot thu prisoners quieted down, a strange thing happened. A strong, clear voice from bolow be gan singing : "Last night I lay a-tleeplng, 'Hit1 re came a dream so fair." Last night! It bad been for them a nightmare or a drunken stupor The song waa such a contrast to the horrible fact that no one could fail of a sudden shock at the thought the song suggested. "I stood in old Jerusalem, Heside the Temple there," the song went on. The jodge had pa u sod. lie made a quiet inquiry. Aformormemberof a famous opera company, known all over the coon try, was aBitinsr trial for forgerv It was he who wat singing in bis cell. Mdaoiime the tong went 00, and every man in the line showed eino tton. U.ie or two dropped ou their knees; one boy at the end of the line, after a desperate effort at self control, leaned againet the wall, bu riod bis face agtinst his folded arms. and sobbed, "Oh, mother, mother I" The sobs, cutting to the verv heart the men who heard, and the tone. still welling its way through the court room, blended in the hush. At length one man protested. "Judge," said he, "have we got to submit to this f We're here to take our punishment, but this" lie, too, began to sob. It was impossible to proceed with the bubinees of the court, yet the udge gave no order to stop the song. Tbe police sergeant, after an i ffjrt to keep the men in line, stepped back and waitjd with tbe rest. The tong moved on to its climax ; "Jerusalem, Jerusalem! Sing, for the night is o erl Hosat.a in the highest I hosanna for evermore I" In an ecstasy of melody the last words rang out, and then there wat silence. The judge looked into the facet of the men before bim. There was not one who wat not touched by the song ; not one in whom some hotter impulse was not stirred. lie did DvmII tbe cases singly a kind word of dvic, ud be dismissed theui all.

Kd Turks Kill i'jii::i;ihnr A dispatch of the 8th inst, from Bona, Bulgaria, aayt : All reports from the vilayet of M on astir agree in describing tho sit uation as appalling. 1 Jet ween thirty and city thousand JJnlgarian tnbab itants are believed to have been massacred by the Turks and every Bulgarian village in the vilayet hat been destroyed. The refugees in the mountains and forests are dying of starvation by thousands. At present it is impossible to obtain precise figures. The revolutionary headquarters estimate that thirty thousand Bulgarian men, women and children bave been killed, while at least the samo number of refu gees are slowly perishing of hunger. In oll'cial circlet these tig ores are regarl 1 as an under estimate and ('flieialsx icline to the belief that the number of the massscred exceeds 50,000. The Turks are apparently determined to exterminate the en tire Bulgarian population of the vilayet. In government am here tlie situation is viewed with increasing alarm. It is reliably reported that tha Turkish forcea in Macedonia number aoO.OOG. 1 ia ronsidemH impossible that such a force baa been assembled merely to crush tbe rebellion. It is feared that the Sul tan is meditating an attack on Bul garia. It looks dark lor Uuigana. Professional Reformers.

Prevents Suicide. A special of Tuesday from Ral eigh says : Ten miles from Raleigb todsy Rommey Pool and Herman Kirk, white boys, about 15 yeart of age, were playing with pistols. One in the hands of pool waa discharged, the bullet passing through bis band. entering Kirk's abdomen and going out at tbe back. At Kirk ttagger ed back from tbe shot, Pool attempt ed to shoot himself. Kirk seized tbe pistol and prevented suicide. Pool tben took tbe gun and, placing the muzz'e at his own bead attempt ed again to kill himself, but Kir IT terribly wounded at be was, seized the gun and again prevented suicide. When people ran into the house tbev fouud Kirk lying on the floor entirely naked, tbe run undertU body and both pistols beside biaT while Pool sat weeping in a corner. Kirk told the whole story.

Finally, we are sure that the wo man who takes it upon herself to teach the mothers and good women in North Carolina "right living" is clearly without a mission. If there are any people on earth who are liv ing right and whose lives are fit to form a counterpart of the abode of the blessed, these are the folks.
