An Opportunity for the People of
Rising Sun.

10 Baltimore one of the most rapidly growing
enterprises of the last few years. and one of the
most appreciated as well has been the Instalment
Business. Its great advantage and benefits espec.
tally TO the medium and poorer classes cannot be
overestimated. Formerly people in ordinary cir
cumstances were compelled to do without great
many necessary comforts of life; that is their
houses were scantily furnished, and only because
they could not at any time raise sufficient cash
money to properly furnish them. What little fur.
niture they had, was of the poorest and cheapest
class and never made q respectable appearance or
gave any satisfaction. Now ON the Ipstalment
Plan any honest person. no matter what his or her
circumstances are no matter hcw poor or how
rich, they can get anything in the way of Furni.
ture, Carpets, Stoves, Crockery, Refrigerators
Baby Carriages Parlor Organs. etc.. in fact any
everything necessary to furnish the Home com.
plete from cellar to attic,-they can get all these
by simply paying small amount cash down and
me balance on small monthly payments. which
are made to suit their circumstances and are al
ways made so low that the money will hardly be
missed. This plan has become SO popular in all
people now purchase their household goods that
way;-in fact all except the extreme wealthy class.

this opportunity offered them. SO the Peoples
Instalment Company, 119 and lie 10 n. Howard

more. the largest and best conducted and most
reliable Instalment house in Baltimore, have de.
cided to allow any resident of Rising Sun or i'm.
mediate vicinity the same advantage as the peo-
pie Of Baltimore now enjoy;-that is to sell them
anything which they may desire to have ON the
Instalment Plan at lowest cash prices and make
terms of payments low enough to suit any ones
convenience. This House not only sells every.
thing in the way of Furniture, Carpets, ktoves,
Refrigerators. Baby Carriages. Crockery, Cutlery,

are the only House in Baltimore where We arin ap-
parel as well as furniture too can be bought on

glad to have the people of Rising Sun call on them

The Mason and Dixon Line Stones.

The Mason and Dixon Line Stones
Pennsylvania has passed a law
recently that the line stones between
that state and Maryland shall be
looked after and kept in order
and in their proper place by the COM
missioners of border counties. The
Commissioners of Lancaster county
through their clerk, II. W. Guest,
have addressed letter to the CONS.
of Cecil, asking them to cooperate"
and pay half the expense. Mr..
Guest says, 1--WE are willing to EN-.
ploy surveyor and have the line
accurately fixed and the stones reset,
if You give your consent and are
willing to bear one-half the EXPENSE"
The communication to our cnmmis.
sioners would read more intelligently
if it were put, 1--WE are unWilLing,"
etc; now the Legislature made it their
duty to look after these stones with.
out reference to Maryland. To have
addressed a note to our Commission
ers inviting them to cooperate would
have been etiquette, but instead they
come with a whining complaint.
demanding our Commissioners to
defray half the expense of carrying
out a Pennsylvania law, which the
Maryland officials have no authority
to do, it is presumable.

PEOPLE GENERALLY BELIEVE that
If the Blood is pure, the health will
be good. The purity of the blood is
guaranteed only when the kidneys
are naturally active. The fluids may
iow freely, and yet the kidneys fail
to keep the blood clean. This will
be indicated if you have Malaria,
Stomach Troubles, Rheuma-
tism, Salt Rheum, Scrofula,
Skin Diseases, Impotency,
Headaches, Lame Back, Neu.
ralgia, Carbuncleg and Boils,
Assesses, Weak Eyes, Ner.
vousness. Poor Appetite, and in
women Female Troubles. These
disorders show that your blood is full
uric, kidney, acid poison, and you
can never get well until you
clean out the blood with the only
recognized scientific blood tonic.
