MISSISSIPPI AS A SUMNER RESORT.
Among the sojourners at The de-
lghtiul and beautiful sea coast
towns this summer are many peo-
pie from the Northern and Western
States, who have learned by expe-
rience that there is no more healthy
and pleasant place on the, conti-
nent during the heated term than
the ocean fringe OfMississippi, with
IFS background of balsamic pines ;
its delightful shellroad drives un-
der the grateful shade of the live
oaks; ITS grand beach for bathing;
its glorious fishing its island shell
tered waters for sailing, and its
cool nights for sleeping. MissiS-
sippi is essentially a summer land,
and as We have often pre- dlcted will
in time become as much a resort
for invalids and pleasure, seekers
OF the North and West during the
months of June, July and August,
as Florida now Is during the win
Ter months.
Mississippi does not boast of her
mild winters and fairy.land au-
tumns, but when il comes 10 spring
and summer, she challenges COM
parisOn with any other region out
side the gates of paradise.-Aber.

Hon. Roger @ Mills has a tariff
article in Belford's Magazine for
August, in which he shows the diff
ference of the two parties on this
important question. He defines
the issue between both parties as
f0lloSs:
When we anhlyze the two plat
forms with care, We find the Dem
ocrats confine themselves to a re-
ductiOn Of a war tariff TO the
economical wants Of a government
in a time Of piece, with no asser-
iiOn whatever looking 10 free trade.
And If we examine as closely the
Republican declaration, We learn
that the contest is put upon a hy-
pothetical proposition which says
that rather than have their protec-
tive tariff destroyed they would
wipe out the internal revenue and
raise duties ~ a prohibition.

.AS EBBS THE TIDE"

Now the fittul gale is sdying,
And the shining sands arc lying
Bare upon the shore
For the tide is outward going
Back the troubled sea is flowing,
And its strife is DER
While the restless tide was flowing,
And the gale was landward blowing,
Stood a mortal on Life's sea-
Turned she, as the tide was turning,
Gazed on earth with deepest yearning-
Passed into eternity

lief, that the hour of death comes at the

The Best Time to Buy valuables.

This is the dull season of the year. This
information is not exclusive or from inspi-
ration. Trade is pretty well as far as it
goes-but 1t doesn't go far. The purchasing
power of dollar now Is something surpris-
ing, simply because there are more dollars
than trade. lie word, we are now inclined
to give very large dollars worth for 100
cents just to keep things moving. Within
the past few mouths we have added to our
stock IL various ways, new ideas, new con-
ceits. new tricks and quips in jewelry, and
so on. We've got to keep up, you know,
with the strides Of inventive and artistic
excellence. Our stock is worth looking
over, and, as intimated, wa tciH sell uerv
close TO move some of it, This is good
time to renew hoGschold articles. Solid
Silver table ware, superb plated waro,
ornamental goods. For personal use or
adjournment we offer line par excellence CO
Ladies' Ene Gold, Silver and Diamond
Jewelry, Ladies' Watches, Chairs and
Charms, Gents Watches ami Jeweiry, etc
All Of these articles can be bought cheaper
now than when trade gots brisker. Some
body will get married next fall--buy the
presents you intend to give noW. They
will keep, and you will save money.
