American Purchasers and Partisan
Tradesmen.

/ have always been very ready to es-
pOuse the cause Of the American pur-
chaser against the Partisan tradesmen,
and especially against the petty tricks
Of the dressmakers of this city. But
regret much TO be compelled to say that
right and justice are not always on the
de OF my countrymen, or rather of my
country women, since it is unusually the
members of the fair sex who become in
volyed in these controversies. For
American ladies as customers some
time indulge in an eXasperating course
of action that is little understood on this
side OF the water, and is, in conse-
quence resented vigorously. One of
these peculiarit;es is an undue exercise
of the feminine privilege of changing
ones M nd / have known one of my
countrywomen to 90 to one of the lead
ing houses OF Paris, to select certain ar
ticles, taking them absolutely and with
out reserve, to order sundry changes
to be made in them, and then. on the
following morning, to send word that
she wou d not take any Of them. In one
Gaze an American lady bought and paid
for q set of costly furniture, and
then, after it had been packed and
sent to Havre for shipment, she wanted
to return it and to get back her money.
In another instance a lady ordered a
superb dress from Worth, and because
the corsage did not tit when it was sent
home, she refused altogether to take
the dress, and threw it on his hands,
while admitting that the defect was one
that could perfectly have been rem
edied. And recently one of the promi-
nent dreSsmakers of Paris called on me
to give me the particulars of case
which had just occurred within her own
experience. A wealthy American lady
had called at her establishment and had
ordered q cloak, selecting herself the
velvet, the lining, the fur wherewith il
was to be trimmed, and the model after
which it was to be made. The price
was agreed upon, the garment was
made, was tried on and found to fit per-
fectly. and then the lady sent it back,
SAYING that she chad changed her mind
and concluded that she did not want the
cloak" Now. in this case the return
of the article simply involved a consid-
cradle pecuniary loss to the dressmaker.
rs the cloak was costly one. and hav.
ing been made to fit the person who or
dcrcd it there was not much chance o.
its exactly suiting any one else.-Pds'is

We learn that colored woman
living in the vicinity Of the Messrs
We'll, was badly scalded one night
last week. She, it seems. was sleep
ing near window, pane in which
had been broken and pasted over
with cloth. This cloth was cut away
with knife, and boiling hot water
poured in upon the sleeping woman.
There can be no clue discovered, SO
far as we know, to the perpetrators
OF such inhnman sconduct. The wo-
man was severely scalded, but is not

The wider use Of laymen and lay
women in the church was lately empha-
sized at Philadelphia as thing to be
sought. The Ct,trcjtnlGn says that if
this wider use becomes fact it means
the beginning Of a great stride forward.
The Examiner (BaptisD says that the
point is one for other Christians than
Episcopalians to ponder. Lay work
needs to be developed in every church.

B. Freeman arrived in Chicago to or

Fourth Congressional District.
CRAIG: NOT HARALSON.
Judge Craig the Nominee by Accca-
nation.
HaralSOn "Wili Not Get 80 Votes !"

Correspondence MantsviNe Gazette. I
SELMA, ALA, Sept. Is.
Your readers in this community and
District were surprised and astonished at
the erroneous editorial in your valuable
paper Of the past week relative to our Con-
gressional nominee. AS the Temporary
and Permanent Chairman of the late Re-
publican District Convention held at Mari
on for the purpose of nominating candi.
date for the 49th Congress, state for the
information of those who may have been
misled by your editorial, that Judge Geo.
Il. Craig was nominated by acclamation; !;
that out Of the 64 delegat tes to said Conven-
tlon every one of them voted for Judge
Craig. excepting Ben DeLemos, of Lowndes
who had been previously employed by the
Democrats to create a riot or break the
Convention up in row.
There is not an honest Republican in
the District who will dispute or deny
Judge Craig the honor of being the legally
chosen Republican standard bearer in this
contest.
1t is assented and believed by many that
Jere Haralson has been paid So, 600 to run
independently of a nomination This
disbelieve. unless he continues to make ef-
forts, in which case it will be undoubted
proof of the truthfulness of the assertion.
Judge Craig having been fairly and
squarely nominated will be elected by the
largest majority any candidate ever receiv-
ed in the State, and we have implicit conf.
dence in his ability to procure the certifi
cate, thing that no Republican has ac-
compllshed since 1874. 1t is really alb
surd and out of reason to suppose for a
moment that man can be the candidate
of any party for so an exalted position as
seat i'll Congress, who after an effort could
not be returned as delegate even from the
beat he claimed tc live In.
Yes, Mr. Editor, you are in error Jere
Haralson is the deadest negro politically in
Alabama Why the women laugh at him,
and the little boys even call him Demo-
crat. And if he does run, he will not poll
90 votes. VIM J. STEVENS

A Mcan Trick.

4 man who probably hailed from
Buffalo, played a powerful mean trick
on Detroit bridal couple at Niagara
Falls the other evening. They went to
hotel and registered, had supper, and
then started out for night view Of the
mighty roarer. They had not gone far
when a man called to them I'D said:
"Have you just been married?' eve
b. have, answered the groom. ''Go;ng
to stay here day or two7' eyes"
Having registered at my hotel you
probably intend to remain there?'
Eyes, sir" "Well, I want to say a
word to you. / don't want any ducky-
deary nonsense around my house. I
want no popsy-Nopsy business on the
veranda. want no squeezing hands
on the balconies or feeding each other
at the table" The groom let his arm
fall from his brides waist in slow and
painful manner, and the stranger con.
tinued: ''The first time you call her
peaches and cream or she calls you her
darling out you go!' "Y-yes, SIR"
"Shes no sweeter than ten thousand
other girls, you're 10 more OF darling
than | am, and I won't stand love sick
nonsense. He walked away with that,
and people at the Falls who knew the
bridal couple were amazed to hear
them address each other as Mr.. and
Mrs, and to see what precaution they
took to prevent touching hands or be-
trayine any symptoms of love. They
put in two wretched DAYS. and Il was
only as they were upon the point OF
leaving that they discovered how base
villain had duped them.-Detrost Ffee

Chronic Ulcers and CafarrIa.

Mrs. Christian Zelle, aged sixty-three
years, of Carondelet, st. Louis, Missouri,
had chronic ulcer on her leg which had
been running for forty-three years. To
use her own language, she had "tried all
the DOCTORS" but without perceptible ben
eft. Two Of the most noted Of this city
advised her, as the only alternative from
death, to have the leg amputated below
the knee. She was troubled with an
intolerable itching sensation, which only
gave way to a distracting pain, which
made death her daily wish. She could
not sleep or rest. On March Fl, this
year, she commenced using DR.. Hart
mans PERUNA, and to-day the leg IS
entirely healed, and the thankful old lady
says she has slept more during the last
three months than she did in the previous
forty-three years.
Miss Alice Brady, of East St. Louis,
Illinois, suffered from catarrh ophthalmia
for five years. On April 27 she began
treatment under DR.. Hartman. For
year before she was patient Of two Of
the best known oculists of this city, but
they signally failed to help her. After
one month under DR.. Hartman and his
PERUNA, her eyes have almost entirely
healed, and, according to her own state
ment, he has done more for her in this
short space of time than the oculists did
in the previous whole year. PERUNA,
Of course, did it.
Miss Annie Baker, First Avenue, Mil
walkee, writes: Il take great pleasure
in recommending PERUNA. For years
have suffered from Asthma. l was in
duced to try PERUNA. 1t promptly
relieved the paroxysms, and its continued
use renders their recurrence less and less
frequent. am confident it will cure me
completely"
Walker Brothers, druggists, Batavia, O.,
write: "DR. S. B. HARTMAN, Columbus,
O., Dear Sir: Some two weeks ago had
very peculiar case, and after few ques-'
tions were answered, came to the con-
clusion it was catarrh of the stomach 9
the worst kind, of ten years standin,
The patient had consulted every ply
sician far and near. persuaded her to
try your PERUNA and MANALIN. She
had been having spasms every three or
four days, and the fifth dose kept them
off, and they have not returned since"
w. M. Griffith, Ashland, KY, writes:
.The large chronic ulcers OF fifteen
months standing, are entirely healed.

subsidized, the leg is healed, and ! am per-
fectly well. PERuNA is wonderful rem'
