1t is conceded that the best

Wilmington Clothing House,
Fourth and Market streets,
and this fall we have tried to
perfect every garment, and to-
day we assert that our garments
have no superior as to fit, while
our former patrons can attest
to the quality. Just step in and
try one of our suits or an
overcoat, and you will then
know they are better fitting
than most of the custom work
that is made at a very low
price. We make this statement,
although we make to order suits
as low as Eighteen Dollars, but
more of our custom work is
from Thirty to Fifty Dollars a
suit; because we are having the
finest work in our city, and our
customers are the best dressed
people on the street. Just stop
long enough to look at our
suits and overcoats, and we have
no doubt you will say as others
have ''It is a pleasure to know
we can find such fine goods at
such low prices in our city
Look at our Ten DOLLAR
SUITS and our FIFTEEN

are special bargains.

to suppose that as we are

that our prices are low
that we keep only low
priced or cheap goods.
Since this matter of low
prices has been one of
our greatest levers to sue
cess we would be foolish
to ignore such an impor-
tant item in the rlpid eX-
tension of our trade. Ii
you are interested in the
prices Of Clothing or
in other words want a new

way that we can prove to
you our intention is to
show you the goods and
tell you for what they can
be bought. Pay us a visit

An OLD W1FEs TALENTINE.

The old wife stood at her garden gate
The eve of ST. Valentines Day;
She watched for the post, that like Fate
Just stopped and then galloped away
Just stopped, and then, in the waning light,
Passed over the hill and out of sight.
Her grandchild tugged at her shawl and gown
And her daughter called, sweet and clear,
t'Mother come in, for the cakes are brown,
And the boys and father are here
"Ah yes" she said, land the night is cold;
At breakfast lay at the fathers place
A letter as white snow; .t ~
He looked at it with a curious face, So
And said, "Now l want to know"
The boys all smiled; the mother grew
Der face and throat a crimson hue.
He opened the dainty letter then,
And lOi in itsSatiny fold e--a-.-
Was painted rose and forget-me-not,
And lilies with hearts of gold:
And, under the whole, just one sweet line
''FOreUer, foreuer, thy Valentine"
He touched the note with tender care,
And he went to his sweet wife's side;
He stroked with his hand her snow-white hair
And he kissed her with loving pride,
Saying, with smiles and misty tears, 49,,
my Valentine through nifty gears
so boys he said, with youthful pride,
after fifty years Of life,
If you find in your home, and by your side,
x fair and a faithful wife,
Count your life lucky. as L count mine,
And Loyalty kiss your Valentine"

What Is the Gravel

The grave-what word-what
mystery! There is no other word in
our language of such meaning and such
awful import. The very sight of the
grave makes humanity shudder, and
shrink, and cling to life, when even life
is an intolerable burden. Yet, why
should it be so? What is the grave that
it should SO unman stout hearts and fill
humanity with terror? What is there
in the grave that even the very word
should be awful? Look at it; look down
into it; look through tit is only u
little narrow opening in the fresh, sweet
earth; aretired, shaded spot, aside from
the hustle, whirl and commotion of a
restless world; little mound. when
completed, and rounded up and sodded
over, planted with shrubs and flowers;
a little palace, with its marble shaft
standing up in the midst of the boun-
ties of Nature, surrounded by the
decorations of art; suburban re-
treat, where the weary and care-worn
can retire and find rest and repose. Ahg
well!-adorn, paint, embelIish the grave
as we may, the very word is still awful,
and its solemn import still clings to it,
as the perfume clings to the rose after
it is crushed. Beautiful as the place
may be with natural loneliness, lavish
as may be the adornments of art, the
very sight is yet appalling. To tell the
afflicted that it is the most freq0ented
place of earth; that the great and small
of all generations resort to it, and there
all distinctions are blotted out; that all
grades meet there on a common level9
that in the grave all expressions cease
and all wrongs have an end, does not
meet the wants of the afflicted soul
Both of these views of death and the
grave may be literally true, outward
and materialistic, but they cannot sat
isfy the living soul when going to it's
baptism of suffering and despair.
The grave is the end of life. for only
the dead enter into it and only the
dead dwell there. 1t matters not what,
we say to the sorrowing about the beau
ties of the place where the dead re-
pose, it does not relieve the subject of
any of its terror, nor bring to the sor-'
rowing any relief or comfort. But tell
them that their loved ones shall rise
again; that the grave shall give up it's
dead; that they who are in their graves
shall hear the voice of God and shalt
come forth, and you have instantly
transformed their night into day, their
sorrow into joy, their mourning into,
rejoicing, and robbed both death and
the grave of their terror. The Lord
says: 81 will ransom them from the
power of the grave; l will redeem
them from death" That meets the
case; that annihilates death and the
grave; that sends the tide of JOY
bounding through the heart Of sor-
rowing world. Some long to be laid at
rest after vainly battling with the
troubles of the world. Church Union.

Ways OF Doing Good.

We have no right to select our own
work, and say: This we will do but
we must be willing to work in the
sphere in which God has placed u.s.,
however humble it may be. A soul
may seem a very small thing, and yet
did not the Savior say: g What shall it
profit man if he gain the whole world
and lose his own soulP' The work to
which we give our zeal and earnestness.
while it is yet small, may grow into
great proportions. In the temple of
old there was first the layer of founda-
ton stone. This must not be despised.
Then stone after stone was put in its
place, until finally the grand, completed
structure crowned the top of Mount
Moriah. The feeling of the true Chris
tan laborer is very nicely expressed in
these words from Tennyson:
And must work through months of toll,
And years of cultivation,
Upon my proper patch OF soil,
To grow my own plantation.
I'll take the showers as they fall,
| will not veX my bosom;
Enough if at the end of all
A little garden blossom.
'.The ways in which we can do good
are many. We can all do good if we
try. We can scatter blessings all along
our pathway. Little deeds of kindness,
words well spoken, these are things that
cost very little; and yet they may be the
seeds of CREST harvests. Read the eighth
chapter of second Corinthians, and
ask yourself the questions; "How can
be doing good?' Paul, in speaking of
Christian liberality, lays down rule
which will apply to all Christian work.
God does not measure our work by its
greatness; He looks at the hearts and
motives of men; and if we work accord
ing to His plan, and observe the condi-
tions laid down, we shall not be COM
PEELED at last to come into the Savior's
presence with empty hands. --ChgiStias
