D0BBINS' ELECTRIC SOAP.
Having obtained the agency OF
this celebrated soap for Abbeville

ionof some Of our best people as
10 its merits. We have been

Pa, and find that it washes and
cleans the clothes more rapidly
and more thoroughly and Is in
the end cheaper than any other
soap We have ever used in our
family. We can heartily recon-
mend it and single trial will
convince all Of the correctness of
our assertions.

SHE HAD a, WEN.

It is, perhaps, one Of the most dis
tressing conditions in life to be in
Flove with a girl who don't j love yon,
Yet the average young nan man i INDUCES
the fond delusion that in time. the
Eobdarate heart will warm to the fer
Isency of his devotion. AM, and the eyes
that shun his glances with i'll con-
ceaiteda dislike, will, in| time, view him
Will, favor. But those more ffamil
lar with the peculiar traits Of the
female heart and understanding,
know that the attempt TO, force a
young lady's affections is, the surest
way in the world to win her hearty
contempt. Not great, while since, a
young man man doing business on Lati-
mer street with one Of the prettiest
girlss. in Denver Denver Very happily for
him, he is possessed So Of & good de, deal
of money, and this Circumstance won
for him the mothers hearty CONCUR
renee in his suit. But the young
lady had views tliat2did not.coincids

r In other words, she had q prior en-
gagement, and inasmuch rs it real'
lied tile old adage that the gs'course
of true love never did run smooth"
shes clung to ittaalf the the more
closeiya But the man with money
had always found his solid attraca
tons an open sesame to- almost tany1
thing hetwished, and he never doubt
ell that it would prove, ina the end;
theseaseswith his present love affair,
But he reckoned without uhiso host;
Theigifl received attentions be-
cause she was compelled to. q She
tolerated his presence because she
had mot entirely made p'ther mind
to defy the wishes of her mother.
But each successivelvisit became
more annoying-she sllrank with
more evident disgust from each sue
Eeessive endearment, until she at last
resolved to put an end to them. So
one day, whcngher lovers called and
