That Cantankerous Old Woman


Described in the nursery ballad, who lived
upoI nothing but victuals and drink and
yet would never be quiet, was undoubtedly
troubled with chronic indigestion Her
victusls, like those Of many other elderly
persons whose digestive powers have become
impaired, didn't agree with her. This was
before the era OF Hosietter's stomach Ri tiers,
or some one Of her numerous friends and r,l-
atives would undoubtedly have persuaded
her to try the great specific for dyspepsis i,
constipation and biliousness This would
have been a measure of self-protectiou on
their part, for she would soon have been
cured aud ceased to disturb them with her
clamor. The most obstinate cases OF indi-
gestion, with its attendant heartburn, fatu
lenceJ constant uneasiness CT the stomach
and OF the nerves, are completely overcome
by this sovereign remedy. Chills and fever
and bilious remittent rheumatism and kid =
rey troubles are also relieved by il.

The Elegant Big Window Display oil
a Popular House.

The man who hesitates is lost" runs
the old axiom. If this be true then every
one who has occasion to passthe Rhodes
& Troxell establishment is lost, for no one
can accomplish this feat without hesitat-
ing to admire, if but for a moment, the
grand display of holiday goods SO e~leverly
arranged in the big windows. There was
a crowd in front of the place all of yester.
day and many here selected a Christmas
token for some relative or friend. The
exhibit of really beautiful fancy goods is
simply bewildering. The variety is as.
tonishingly large and it does not require
an expert to determine that there is moth
ing shoddy on show. The goods are the
best made.
The pictures are u big feature OF the
miniature exposition. They are works of
art ranging from the sublime to the
unique aud the frames are elegant speci-
mems of the best and most tasty work
manship. The novel horse pictures with
their appropriate Trainings attracted no
little attention. The Mater Dolorosa and
others of like character were much adj
mired. Many OF these pictures will dis
appear before Christmas.
Albums of all styles and sizes are pre-
scented for approval. The plush retains
its color and wears. Prices seem very
low.
Fine books are much affected and have
had a big sale. They are standard works
in magnificent bindings.
The channels toilet articles and cases
are pretty concei,s, all carrying hand
paintings. They are a useful present.
For desk furniture was noticed in these
wondrous windows the neatest inkstands
imaginable and novel calenders.
One of the handsomest articles is a
clock. the face OF which is sunk neal the
top ola plush tower. Wall banners are
hung above all. Elegant Christmas cards
rest on easels of lovely pattern and fine
finish.
1t is said that Rhodes & Troxell pride
themselves particularly on the stock of
toilet cases, it being the best line in the
territory and not excelled by any in the
West. The cases in the windows are
samples from a big collection and every
one is a gorgeous affair. The articles
contained in the handsomely fashioned
and elegantly trimmed cases are the best.
The most popular seems to be the oxidized
silver, which is all the rage down East,
but there are ivory, pearl, celluloid and
fancy composition.
Some elegant canes are shown and there
is a collection of choice toy novelties.
Altogether the Rhodes & Troxell win
dows are a grand sight.
