Mr. Harrison for owliaalready said lie is notojiig try it. ! hOT that we see any material good that the free and unlimited coinage of silver on a 16 to 1 basis might do . the'eountry, yet in the lace of existing circumstances, we do see how free silver will benefit -North Carolina. It the lino of po litical action as Thud down by Mr. Carlisle is followed; it will result in the defeat of the Democratic party in North Carolina in 1896, giving the fcitate again into the hands of Fu eionista.

Take au ordinary hand tnll of the blossojns, put them in one quart of , good rye whiskey, and take a table epuonfull three, times a day. 'Ah, says some one, "I thought you were op posed to the use of whiskey." So I am, bitterly opposed to iuo use of it as a bever age, and never use it in any shape or form, bat I hare very little patience with.tnis Puritanical-tomfoolery, which condemns the use of it, strictly as a medicine. .

Boys do not Jndge a man by his clothing. A tittle incident occurred on oneliueof street cars a few days since which is worthy of notice. A pooily clad woman entered the car carrying an infant in her. arms. As she sat opposite I observed she seemed troubled about something. When the condaoto? passed through the car for the fares she said in a very low voice : "Please sir, I have no money, let me ride this time and some other time I will pav you." "I can hear that story every day," said the conductor, in a loud, rough voice. "Yon can pay or get off." "Two fares, please," said a pleasant voice, as a toil-worn and sunburned hand passed the conductor ten cents. "Heaven bless you sir," said the woman, and 'long and silently she wept ; the language of the heart so eloquent to express our hidden thoughts. This man in worn and soiled garment was one of God's noblemen He possessed a heart to feel for the woes of others, and although tbe act was bnt a trifle, it proves that we can not, with safety, judge a man by hi3 clothing . For many a truo - heart , beats beneath a ragged jacket." Six weeks ago I suffered with a very efevere cold ; was almost unable to speak. My friends all advised me to consult a phy sician, Noticing Chamberlain's Cough liemedy advertised in the St Paul Yolks Zaitung I procured a bottle, and after ta king it a short while was entirely well I now most heartily recommend this remedy to anyoue suffering with a cold Wm Keil, 678 Selby Ave. St Paul, Minn.

Blount, at liopor hud to go and see hmr. How to get there was a J more complicated question to this individu al than, the silver question. On the Mack ey 'a Ferry road stood an obstacle in the shape of a creditor ouuldn't pass him, never. On the direct Itoper road lay iu its innocence that Red Hill of which every body had said so much. Oh what a time I had to get the consent of my mind to drive over it, "but after taking out an accident policy aud telling ''that wife of mine" that in case ut death she would be left a suffi cient sum to catch any ordinary man lor better or tor worse, I had her good bye, and going to Theo B iweu'a called for the best gentle tuaui he had. Well, Boweu gave me a nice teaji, Cue of these consid erate horses which would never cause you to be pullud up by Chief Tucker for labt driving. At last I got out of town and on lied Hill. Well I was disappointed in the condition of the road I forgot to apply the whip according to careful instruction from Mr, Bjwen, and the Horse actually stopped and looked 'round to See if 1 was asleep. I bucceeded in reaching - Roper after a time and after gettiug Bapper ut Hotel da Koper, I touud Mr. JJiuuut and said my piece, then took in tho town, by the light of the wuon and eketne liuhtu. In the colored hall a ola-s of colored orphans were having a line time, and as tuey had a baud, you know I saw nil ttie colored pupa laiiou at one sight,, for u may bo trmy said that where a brst horn or a drum is, thele Will the colored people be ulso. " This little town is a lively place After wauderiug about for uoui time I started by Blount's Hall, and from its open win dows came the sweet btraius of tue violfu and accompanying notes of the piano. Being lured by the swet music, I walked in and found tho spacious hall filled with beautiful women aud galUut men eujoying one of those social dances Ji;r whicn itoper is famous. Not being a dancing man, 1 slid in and took a seat just to watch the rest enjoy the thiug. It was then gettiug late and by eleven o'clock I began to see tLat those people were inclined to be' so cial, so I made myself as agreeab.e as I could. Everything was passing along smoothly, ten coup! a were going through tbe quadrille, on my right sit a beautiful girl nnd I was just beginning to think if I was a young man tkat girl would have to listen to soDieihlug sweeter than the music that was being rendered by Mess. Jim aud Dickens Gay lord. You know it is said that some of the sweet girls have no heart, well this was not true of this young lady, for at this point, without a moment's warn ing, the electric liahts were shut off ajyii we were leu wnere moses was on .enr oo casion Speak about heartf,well if you had ; bvseu sittiri" , wtfere I was yeu could haveUestided tor the fact that that lady had a heart and no mistake. J-he did unt scream, neither did the others preseurf neither did they bound1? to the highest chairs, as would haye beeu the case had a mouse ben turned loose in the . room, but all sat perfectly still and the silence thai followed was only broken by the rapid I'UlsItions of that girl's heart, beating about one hundred to ttie haif uiiuute, ' Oil iamps soon took the place of the electric lights, and the dauc j continued. ' I left for tear a greater temptation tu be young again might eome upon me. ' 1 IL....LL, Li .1.
