Stockings and the Feet.

as far as the amount OF money spent for
their purchase, but how dear in after

1t is related by DR.. James Kennedy,
of Atlanta, who was in our city this
week. that recently young lady of
jackson county who had engaged her
self to several sutors, fell upon novel
eXpedicnt for settling the destiny of at
least one of them. They appear to have
been equally favored by her. and to
have heartily aided her in her schemes.
On n certain occasion she notified
them that the first of the three arriving
the next day duly prepared for the GER
emory she would then and there marry.
The good faith of the agreement was as
sured and conceded by each lover and
be departed that night bent on an carly
start for the prize on the following day.
Two of the young men were brothers.
The third was uncncumbered by any tic
which probably accounts for his success.
The latter set out betimcs for the fair
ones home, and was present before the
other two.
The Jackson maiden was true TO her
word. On presenting his license pre-
parations were at once proceeded with
for the marriage While the ceremony
was being performed the second sutton
appeared, and about its conclusion the
hardest of the trio came upon the scene.
The belated lovers were really left the
unusual Office of being the first TO con.
graduate n fiancec and rival on their
marriage and to partake of the break
fast in honor TO one forever lost to them
selves. As for the successful young man.
he had all the fun, and it is supposed
that the situation was hugely enjoyed
by himself and friends. s. Greensboro

but he could get laugh ont Of such "A
ghastly subject. He was once sent TO

from New York He was absent sever
al days. and, rs is often the case, found
himself, when making mp his bill of cN-

Philip found he could not do this. but he
determined not 10 lose any Of the money
which he had expended on behalf OF the
newspaper. SO he made ont bis bill
anew, and after charging for his hoie!
bill, railroad fare. and other regulation
expenses, he added a few items in order
