NO.. 8.

The tables were weighted with every
luxury and delicacy that the taste of
an epicure could suggest, and all pre-
pared in the most toothsome and
tempting manner. All was so pleas
ant and enjoyable that hours passed
as moments, and the night was far
advanced into the morning before all
the guests had hidden the hostess
adieu, wished the groom and his
bride happy life voyage and depart
ed for their homes. Mrs. Mead was
ably assisted in her arduous yet pleas
ant task of receiving the guests by
Mrs. D. l.. Brown, Mrs. Jas. Fl. De.
Bard, Mrs. w. l.. Garner and Mrs. f.

If an suspicious beginning of their
united lives, and the best wishes of
hosts of good friends, can exert pro-

have happy and useful career be-
fore them. Mr.. Mcguire is progress

and his wife possesses all those
charms which make a woman low

high esteem in which the couple are
held by their many friends.

Newspaper Advertising.

1t is conceded by all successful
business men that the best mode of
advertising is through the.medium Of
gosd local newspapers. We com
mend to the business men of Nc
Minnville the following from a recent
issue of the Nashville Banner:
John Wannamaker, the millionaire
merchant of Philadelphia, owes his
remarkable success to free and
judicious advertising. When he was
struggling to make start in business
he took the whole of his first profits,
$33, and put it all in newspaper
advertising. AS his business in
creased he increased his advertising
bills, and now he spends several
fortunes year with newspapers and
makes fine profit Of several more
fortunes. His rule has been-and it
is the true rule-to keep his business
always before the public. There is q
sound, practical philosophy in keep
ing the general public always familiar
with the name of the business firm.
This is especially the case with retail
dealers of every description, and all
businesses which invite a local and
neighborhood and state patronage,
and live and wide-awake business
men recognize this fact and act up6
it.
