Invite their Trade. -
; People like to . trade with those
merchants who manifest a desire for
their custom. Tbey argue "that, if
the merchant feels the value of their
trade he will be at greater pains to
serve them and to give them the
lowest prices. . As soon as they believe
a merchant feels independent to their
trade or indifferent to their patronage
they go to oL hers of less pretentions
possibly but of greater enterprise;
One of the best ways, to manifest an
interest in the patronage of the pub
lic and to maintain an interest in
your business is to advertise regular
lyA A concern that reaches the
point where it no longer feels the
need of advertising), has also
reached a point where the public no
longer feels that its trade is needed
or appreciated.

Death -of Little ; Carrie Pettigrew.
.Died, in Burlington, September ,
18Q9, the death angel entered the
home of John and Willie Pettigrewr
and took from them their precious
baby, Carrie "Alice. She was sick only
five days. She was born July, 21,
1898 and died Sept. 5, 1899, making
h( r stay on earth thirteen months
and fourteen days her life was short
like the dew-drop on the rose. But
her stay on earth was long enough to
gladden papa's and mama's f hearts,
and home. How thev will miss her!
But she was too pure for this sinful
world and all of its troubles.
Our Heavenly Father in his alwise
Providence, saw it was best to ; take
her to himself. .
May thia 'sad bereavement cause
the mother to evcr look to Gol for
comfort and sustaining grace, and
have an ever-abiding iaith in Christ
our Saviour, and may her husband
be brought into the fold of the great
Shepherd, and both be reconciled yfo
ihe divine will of God, who; never
makes mistakes, and may they both
press toward the mark for the ; prize
of the high catling -of God in Christ
Jesus, is the wish of their friend.

She was for several years a consis
tent member of the M. E. church,
South, at Allensville. The last two
or three months of her life were full
of suffering; but God's grace abound
ed" unto her, and Bhe gave ample
testimony tnat. "she iully trusted
Christ, and died triumphantly. She
requested that ber body' be borne to
the church at Allensville, her funeral
be preached by this writer, and her
remains be buried , in the church
yard there, " f These things were done
yesterday afternoon, witnessed by j a
large gathering of relatives yand
friends.- Much sympathy is felt for
the - sorrow stricken children, and
many hope that each one of them
may be enabled believingly to pray,
