THICKNESS OF THE soLEs.
The soles of girls boots and shoes
should be thick. They are not always
to remain upon carpers, but they must
go out doors and walk on the ground.
Some people seem, somehow, to suppose
that girls do not really step on the
ground. but that, in some sort of spirit
ual way, they pass along just above the
damp, unclean earth But, as a matter
of fact. girls do step on the ground just
like boys. ! have frequently walked be
hind them to test this point, and have
noticed that when the ground is soft they
make tracks and thus demonstrate the
existence of an actual, material body
Now, while this ia the case. and while i
is indispensable to their health that they
go much in the open air, they must have
thick soles Let these be made of the
hardest and most impervious leather.
OF WHAT SHALL THE UPPERs OF GIRLS
BOOTS BE COMPOSED
During the cold and damp month;
they should be made of thick, solid leath
er. No matter about the name some
calfskin is very thin, while morocco i,
often very thick. During the warm sea
son they may wear for uppers rrunella
or other cloth.
1t need hardly be said that heels
should be broad, long and low.

MEssRs. EDITORS SPIRIT: Having oc.
casion to travel through Monroe Coun-
ty occasionally and make observations
in regard to the prospects IN business
point Of view, in the different parts OF
the county I have come to the final con-
clusion that if the people of Monroe
County want to build up town within
their limits, that SarlIs is the most eli
gib!e poiut in the county.
say this after thorough canvass OF
the county Sardis has great advanta-
oes in regard TO the converting of the
roads TO that point on the river, where
the steamers plying up and down always
pass at a reasonable hour, which think
is great convenience to passengers and
shippers. 49,.
In addition l learn that all goods Oh
merchandise that is consigned to this
place is always taken care Of, and not
left on the wharf to the mercy Of the
weather and chances Of being carried Off
Or damaged
And in addition, find that the bust
ness men Of Sardis are the most ener-
getc and wide awake Of any that | find
in the county. .
When you see community that are
willing to tax themselves TO improve the
roads and facilities for trade and travel,
you may rest assured that they are going
to move things and bring prosperity to
their section Of country.
We see in regard to business that Sar
dis has four stores or places of business,
and holding out Inducements to draw in
the trade from the outside world
The building up Of the planning mill Of
Lory, Fry & Co, in this place, is & big
thing for persons that want any Kind OF
planed lumber, doors, sash, blinds, ,moul-
ding, or anything in their line, made in
first class factory of that kind.
The Touring mill Of Arch McGrew
stands number one, he coming here with
the reputation of being one of the best
milIers from Belmont County.
The saw mill of A r Bridgeman and
JAS Nesbitt furnish all kinds Of lumber
and timber for building purposes ard
steamboats,.
After summing up the matter l find
that the people about Sardis and the
country adjoining are the most energetic
and go-ahead people that haye met in
this county, and | would advise the peo-
pie in the back part of the county that
want to transact business by way of the
river to go to Sardis, for they will al
ways meet with parties that will cheer
fully give them all information they may
desire and render them all the assistance
in the transaction Of business they may
ask.
say this from personal knowledge
of the people Of that place, and having
business with the various points in the
county, speak understandingly and
from the book. Most respectfully yours,

Mysterious Disappearance.


JOHN MCKAY. an Old and respectable
citizen of Tyler County W. Va, on Fri
day evening of May 2, left Sistersville in
company with several others for home.-
His farm is about seven miles southeast
of Sistersvlle, near Middle Island Creek,
at Dopler's store. About3 miles from
his home his company left him, lie taking
another road for home. He was seen
passing along by persons near the road,
about miles from his home, half an
hour before night. Since then nothing
has been seen or heard from him. His
horse was found next morning about hslf
amile beyond his home, on the other side
of the creek The horse to get there
would have to pass the house, and go
nearly half mile to get to the creek
The creek was very high and out of ride
in the evening. The hard rain during
the night left no trace of the horses
tracks. McKAY's speciacles were found
in the road about mile from his home.
He had about S400 about his person. 1t
is supposed that he has been murdered,
and thehorse taken over the creek to
throw suspicion off his track. The mys-
terry is how the horse or the old gentle,
man either would go half mile beyond
home, and cross the creek where it was
impossible. There is quite an excite
ment, and the whole neighborhood are
searching the creek and woods for the
missing man. N.

GSThere were several slight errors
in our information concerning the dis
appearance Of GREeG, in Belmont coun-
ty. The time of his disappearance was
in the Fall of 1871, not 1872, as stated /;
his uncle found no boot and MILHoRNs
dam was not drained; but GREGG has
not been seen or heard of, except
through the medium of bogus CORES,
pondents, since that time. The story
circulated that he and one of the young
men enlisted in the army proves to have
been news Of the grapevine order
manufactured. We used the word cal
leged' in our article concerning this
matter, because that word always can
be made useful as half way resting
place by those disposed to become in
dignant
