ONLY SAFE WAY

is to buy from House that sells STAN
dard Instruments only, and that will
not handle Instruments under stencil,
or bogus makers names. With such
House the buyer is safe from all i'm
position, and will receive just what is
paid for. No STENCIL INSTRUMENTS
SOLD, is the rule Of our House. Every
Instrument bears its makers name.
More than this. These makers are
known the world over, as the best and
the most reliable. See what glorious
list: CHICKERING, MATH USHEK,
KRANICH & BACH, HALE, MASON
& HAMLIN and SHONINGER-
Grand makers, all, and leaders Of the
world. Over 200 different styles to
select from. Best Instruments for
least money. No competitor with
cheap makers. Buy from u, and Sc
cure reliable Instrument at the low
est possible price. We are manufac>
turers' Wholesale Southern Distribut-
ing Agents, and buying from us is
precisely the same as buying direct
from Factory. Our prices for standard
instruments are the lowest and our
terms the easiest. For proof Of this,

FOR A LIFETIME.

The purchase of Piano or an Organ
is generally for lifetime, and the
greatest pains should be taken in the
selection. If good Instrument is OBJ
rained the purchaser is made happy
through life, but if it be poor one, q
lifetime of dissatisfaction results.
Thousands Of Instruments are now
sold yearly under bogus manufacture
ers' names. Dealers who never made
even one Instrument, and who do not
own even one solitary brick Of Fac
tory, are selling Instruments under
their names as makers, and the coun-
try is fairly flooded with these bogus
Instruments. There is no safety in
buying such Instruments. Dealers
who sell them are generally not re-
syonsib.e, and if they fail. the real
maker is unknown, and cannot be
forced to replace or repair. Dealers,
of course, know who are really makers
and who are not, but the purchasers
do not know, and hence are in con-
tinual danger of unwittingly buying
stencil instruments, which are not

T. allow them to be tried in the
newspapers and take no steps
toward substantiating the charges
ii had made. But since they have
been indicted, and II. prosecution
has been begun, th cir tactics have
changed compile tely, and their
only anxiety seems to be to throw
as many obstacles as possible in
the way of speedy trial. This is
a strong Indication that they are
afraid to meet the evidence against
them. The Government is NOV
ing vigorously, however, and they
will soon be unable TO practice
any further evasions. Toone who
is familiar with the details of the
charge this dilatoriness is strong
proof that the prosecution has a
good case. 1t was at first believed
by many here who were acquainted
with Gen. Brady that, while ne
had the opportunity to practice
the frauds charged upon him, and
might not lack the willingness to
engage in them, it was extremely
unlikely that man of his ability
should not have covered up his
tracks so carefully that conviction
would be impossible even were
the charges entirely correct. But
this systematic course of delay
and evasion by every means avail
able has considerably shaken this
belief and brought tendency to-
ward the opinion that he will not
be able to escape the justice of
the law. His conviction, of course,
carries with it, in all likelihood,
the conviction of all the rest con-
nected with him. SPoT.

SUNDAY MEWSINGS.
An Old White Cat that Will Not Stay
Away from Her Old Home.

At the residence Of Mrs. Dollarhide
there has been an old white cat which
was considerably at home and much
petted. There were lately lot Of lit
tie kittens found in company with the
old cat, and they were scarcely able
to open their eyes and know where
they belonged, when family living
up town borrowed the cat and kit
tens and tried to make them at home.
Last week one of Mrs. Dollarhide's
daughters visited the neighbours house,
and was instantly recognized by the
old cat, which made great demonstra-
tons of JOY, and Saturday two Of the
young ladies again called, when the
cat was again greatly delighted and
showed in every way her pleasure.
Saturday night the old cat was found
at the front door, holding one Of the
kittens in her mouth, and being adj
mitted she deposited the kitten near
the stove and disappeared. Later in
the night she was found at the door
with second kitten, and in the morn
ing with third, having carried each
in her mouth.
The old cat has heretofore been too
weak to make the trip, and the kit
tens were too young to move. But.
tering her feet nor pure cream will
keep her away. She is now at her old
home, perfectly contentcd.
