No business in this city has increased more
that of drugs. The same effort probably has
never before been made to induce trade in this
line to come here, and this has only been accom-.
plished by offering inducements in the way of
prices Our druggists express a Willingness to
duplicate any purchases made in any other
southern or western ely, and this, too without
regarding freights This fact alone, when II
becomes generally known, will bring here nearly

Laziness i'm Thinking.

In one of our "Letters from Prac-
tical Men," occurs this expression :
"There are more men too lazy to think
than too lazy to work with their hands. "
The fact that men can work industrious
ly with their hands every day from
"early morn to dewy eve," and yet be
lazy, perhaps, has impressed itself upon
only small proportion of intelligent
observers. A little reflection, however,
will discover that there is nothing incon.
sistent in such an assumption. There are
artisans and business men who make
progress to limited extent and stor
right there for the remainder of theil
lives. They are never found idle dur
ing the time for work, yet they don't
think with any original effort. The mar
who thinks while he works with hii
hands is head and shoulders above the
steady plodder who manifests no desire

statement respecting a very stormy autumn

heavy snow-falls, reaching to remote southern
