The Contrast.

Holly Springs South; Were the Republi-
cans ever known to rebel against the de
cision of their own party leaders when the
decision was made on partisan or teehni-
cal grounds as the Democrats have done
in the Manning Chalmers case2 When
did the Republican party ever so unan-
imously and earnestly rebel against the
very appearance Of evil and demand justice
at its own expense7 Let him answer who
can. The integrity of the Democrats par
ty in this matter shines with luster to
which the best act of the Republican party
appears in comparison but as rushlight to
the sun.

The Great seedsmen.

We desire to call attention to the adver-
tisement in another column of d. NJ. Ferry
& Co., Detroit, Mich, the great seedsmen,
whose mammoth establishment is one of the
sights of the chief city of Michigan. They
do the largest business in their trade in the
United States, reaching even across the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The house is
entirely reliable, and if you wish to get ex'
actly what you order, you cannot do better
than send to them for your seeds, and you
may depend upon it yeu will get the best
the market can supply. Their seeds have
become known over the entire civilized
world for purity and fertility, and have
gained for them an enviable reputation.
Their Annual Seed Catalogue just issued
for 1888, replete with information and
beautifully illustrated, will be sent free on
application.

Imnnre Breath.

Among all the disagreeable consequences
that follow the decay of the teeth, an inn
pure breath must be the most mortifying
and unpleasant to its possessor, and it is the
most inexcusable and offensive in society
and yet the cause of it may easily be re-
moved by cleansing your teeth daily with
that justly popular dentifriee, Fragrant So
zoDoNT. 1t purifes and sweetens the
breath, cools and refreshes the mouth, and
gives pearl-like appearance to the teeth.
Gentlemen who indulge in smoking should
cleanse their teeth with SozoDoNT, as it
removes all unpleasant odors Of the weed.
Ask your druggist for it.
