Our young friend, Henry Carter,
who has been living here for the past
year, returned to his old home in
Loudoun county this week.
Mrs. Jane Gold has been sick for
the past month but is improving.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lemuel Warfield re-

The ablest sermon to which we have
had the pleasure of listening recently
was preached by Rev. d. A. Foard, in
the NJ. E. Church of this place last
Sunday night. Mr.. Foard has been
on this circuit for the past two years
and has won the high esteem of all
the people. Ills return for another
year is earnestly desired.
A rather unusual occurrence took
place in our village last week. A son
of Mr.. Abram Grim died near White
Hall and the remains were brought to
the Lutheran graveyard here for in
terment. Owing to the wet weather
water soaked rapidly into the grave
and had TO be dipped out before the
burial took place. The father of the
deceased did not like this condition of
the grave, and the same afternoon
had the remains exhumed and re-
moved to White Hall for reburial.--

The young ladies and gentlemen of

The lecture given by Rev. Ross on

lecture was grand and Instructive, the
scenes shown by the Magic lantern
were magnificent.

strong faith in pancake, which is on

DECLINE IN CARPETS. The progress
that has been made in Housekeeping can
be readily seen if the mind is allowed to
drift back few years. You would then
find one or two rooms in a house carpet
ed, and no fancy ornaments to brighten
up the parlor or sitting room. Now, you
can rarely enter house that is not car
peted from kitchen to garrett, and instead
of the women scrubbing and washing the
floor, you will find them at some fancy
work, to brighten the rooms and make
home cheerful. This is as it should be.
One of the great reasons of this is the
great decline in the price of carpets.
bringing them within the reach of men
of moderate means. Note the difference :
Good all wool filling carpets to-day are
so cents, then they were rs cents Extra
Supers from IS to So cents, then 81 and
$1.25; Tapestry Brussels, 60 to 81, then
$3.50. We have now ON hand decidedly
the largest and best stock of carpets we
have ever had, at prices from Is cents to
1925. AS we have no extra expense
connected with this branch of our bust
ness, we can afford to sell them at less
profit than our neighbors, and will guar
antee to save you from five to ten cents
ON every yard you buy. So all you have
to do is to come and examine our prices,
as it is no trouble to show goods and one
price to all. EMMERT & FIERY.

FIRE AT SIR JOINS RUN.-Mr.
U. Mendenhall's storehouse at Sir
Johns Run, together with the con-
tents, was consumed by fire about two
O'Clock on Monday morning. The
citizens were aroused by loud ex-
plosion which was caused by the fire
coming in contact with the coal oil
barrel in the ware-room, and soon all
was wrapt in flames. 1t is supposed
to have been the work of an incen-
diary. The building and goods were
insured for $4,000 in the Etna of
Hartford, but Mr.. Mendenhall esti-
mates his loss to be much greater.
