How "a Went Into 1ba.


In an arithmetical sense not difficult
accomplishment, but where the figuring
involves almost giving away articles OF
necessity and luxury, sort of Ope-sided
business, as Simon Mitchell, late of "a
Whitaker street, found when he resolved
to have more room in which to display his
array of ''goOd clothes" OF course the
less a man has to carry with him the
cheaper it is to move, and on this princi-
pie Mitchell slaughtered-yes, cut prices
all to pieces, and while it was "cold
spelI'' financially for Mitchell he was
kept pretty hot in serving the crowds who
took advantage Of the bonanza, and they
cleaned him out very well, too, so that he
is now settled at 159 BroughtOn street
next 10 j. \, DOuglass') with brand
new stock of Mems, Youths and Boys
business and dress suits, furnishing goods,
underwear, hats, caps, ETC., and he pro-
poses to hold his old trade and gain new
customers if lOi1 prices, first-class goods
and fair treatment can do it. Call and
see him in his new stand, 159 BrOughtOn

struck with the beauty of this promenade.

is the Greene monument called so,we believe,
from the color of the grass at its base).
Passing on, then we come to the Gordon
monument, fit memorial to a noble man.
Then the electric light tower, structure
tOacerias0 far heavenward, reminding one in
stinctively of similar structure described in
Holy writ, only they had no elevator.
The next attraction of note is Davis Bros.

Of Bull and York streets. IT'S really a pleas
ing thing to enter their portals, where you are
received with open arms Qadies excepted),

from the WOmen's Christian Temperance
Union. under whose auspices the address

named to make public reference to the
fact that he had tJcice delivered addresses
i'm the Baptist Church at which the pastor
was present and expressed himself well
pleased. and had the WOmen's Christian
Temperance Union imagined he could
have abused the privilege granted

not have been invited by them to lecture.

WOMAN.
Hope for Suffering Woman Some
thing New Under the Sun.

BY reason of her peculiar relations, and her
peculiar ailments, woman has been compelled
to suffer, not only her own ills, but those aris-
ing from the want of knowledge, or of con-
sideratiOn on the part of those with whom she
stands connected in the social organization.
The frequent and distressing Irregularities
to degree which no language can express.
In the mansions of the rich and the hoveI of
the poor alike, woman has been the patient
victim of ills unknown to man, and which
none but she could endure-and without a
remedy. But now the hour of her redemption
has come. She need not suffer longer, when she
can find relief in DIR. j. Bradfeld's Female

If disease has entered the system the
only way to drive it out is to purify and
enrich the blood, To this end, as is ac-
knowledged by all medical men, nothing
is better adapted than iron. The fault
hitherto has been that iron could not be
so prepared as to be absolutely harmless
to the teeth. This difficulty has been
overcome by the Brown Chemical Compa-
ny, of Baltimore, Md, who offer their
Browns Iron Bitters as a faultless iron
preparation, positive cure for dyspep-
sia, indigestion, kidney troubles, etc.

Neao York Special to the Commercial Gazette.
A remarkable story is told in con-
nectiOn with the death of James Lang.
don, clerk in the tax office, which occurred
on Tuesday evening last. A short time
after his body had been removed from the
room in which he died to the parlOr in
front, married and single daughter of
the deceased entered the vacated room
and beheld, as they say, an apparitiOn,
which they described as a small blue
light of dazzling brilliancy. The light,
which was almost the size of an Ordi-
nary candle flame, went about the
bed in which Mr.. Langdon had died in
the form of circle and disappeared,
when the young ladies, beside themselves
with terror, embraced and uttered
piercing cries. The younger sister has
not yet recovered from the shock. Both
saw the apparitiOn at the same time.
Another singular circumstance related
by the friends of the deceased is that the
clock in the Office in which he had worked
for nearly quarter of a century stopped
at l20 O'Clock on Monday night, while
Mr.. Langdon's death occurred at 1920
O'Clock the following evening. The clock
is still stopped, and will not be set again
until the funeral takes place.
