Attention Is called to the notice in
another column, headed Coordination
Corpse Preserver.n The notice of this
invaluable improvement, in The HER
AID of yesterday, was slightly inaccu-
rate. The preserver is only used as Il
receptacle for the body until ready for
burial. A corpse can be placed in the
preserrer and kept for any length of
time desired, even in the hottest
weather, and when ready for burial,
transferred to the coffin. Mr.. Morton
invites the public to call and examine
1t.
--Of all the articles Of gentleman g
toilet there is none so difficult to be
pleased with MS shirt. TO have it fit
we'll Is the first consideration, and
good fit will insure its wearing quality.
The majority of shirts are made up
crossways of the cloth, as it econo-
mizes the material. Hollenbeck u
McCollum have brought on make of
shirts that fulfil all the desideratums.
The Pembroke shirt is the best in the
market, and if you don't believe it
come and see them.
Mrs. Nj. Il. Pinckard, of Georgia,
is selling book from her own pen,
"Bread of Heaven and Husks of Swine;
or the Curse of Jealousy" This stout
hearted old lady, now upwards of three
score years of age, is selling this book
to support five little orphan grandsons,
whose father, a gallant confederate
soldier, died before Corinth. She is
educating them for an honorable man
hood by the sale of her work, and has
tlattering testimonials from the vener-
able Bishop Lovick Pierce, of Georgia,
and others. She owes her binder and
printer $40, and needs n liberal patron
age to meet these demands. The good
people of Dallas, who can appreciate
her energy and devotion, will help
her.
The colored people held meeting
Thursday night and appointed a COM
mittee of seven from each ward to de-
eide upon which candidate for the
mayoralty they should support. The
committees met last night, but the
name of the candidate selected was not
made known to the uninitiated. The
meeting will reasonable tonight, when
the committees will present their re-
port.
In the announcement column to-
day will be found thatiOf Major John
Henry Brown as a candidate for the
constitutional convention from this
district, composed of Dallas, Tarrant
and Ellis counties. There are three to
be elected from the district. Major
Brown is well known to our readers as
an experienced legislator, and his en-
inent fitness for the position of a mem
Der of the convention is unquestioned.
The gifted author of that beautiful,
original poem, "The Moneyless Man
of Dallas" who innocently signs his
name in full-C. Il. Cole--to all his
original land some that are not orig
inaD productions, has again been at his
favorite misunderstanding libelous
letters of Dallas to the Texarkana
press. Communication of that kind
would come with u much better grace
from individuals who are not, as Mr..
Cole is, regular habitues of the very
dens of infamy and vice which he SO
WILDLY describes.
