"Anothcr wonderful Discovery has been

For three months she coughed necessarily
and could not sleep. She bought of us
bottle of DR.. Kings New Discovery for

APPRENTICES.

AlduC p'PCiS navy :" SAN'tu NSed w
say nowadays about the apprentice
question, and many suggestions are
made as to the manner of treating
them, and the proper course they
should pursue. The following article
appeared in the Carriage Monthly and
we commend it to all boys who are
trying to learn a trade:
Every boy starting out in seeking a
trade must take into consideration the
one thought, and that is he must ex-
pect to commence at the bottom Of the
ladder and do his best to reach the top
by strict attention to the instructions
given by older heads at the business.
Boys are apt to know more in a few
weeks or months than those to whom
they must look for instructions Our
advice to the apprentice would be for
him to be careful and willing to do
everything that he is told, and by so
doing he will make friends and have
no trouble in getting along with his
trade. We must admit that all boys
are not alike; some boys seeking a
trade. have a determination to master
the art, knowing at the same time that
they must depend on this trade for
future support, and for this reason ex-
pect to master the trade. We like a
boy of this stamp, and would take
great delight in giving him all the in
structions to aid him to accomplish the
desire of his heart.
There is a vast difference between
the apprentice of twenty-five years ago
and one of to-day the boy of to-day
comes and goes like the journeyman;
the one of gone-by days had all his
cleaning to do, such as sweeping, etc,
after the men had gone, so that the
shop would be in proper condition in
the morning when the men arrived for
their daily work. We think appren-
tees have a much easier time now
than they had years ago, because there
is nothing binding them like the old
indentured apprentice. For all this
our sympathy goes out for the boy
who has the push and determination to
have trade, and we will venture to
say the boy Of this stamp will be mas
ter of the situation. There are several
points to consider he must do willingly
what he may be told to do by taking
into thought nicely and neatness if it
should take much longer to accomplish
it than some one else doing the same
piece of work, it would be better to 90
slow and do his work right and neat,
and get speed after accomplishing the
desired object and whatever may be
given him to do, it will require some
one else to instruct him, and this in
formation should be given in kindness.
The apprentice must be close OBJ
server, and CLEAN all he can from
others around him, and be ready at
any time to ask for information CON
corning his work
The apprentice may imagine he has
hard time while learning his trade,
because he has to do many things that
are not agreeable to him, but we all,
old and young, have to pass through
many disagreeable things in this life,
and the apprentice can make his years
shorter in his trade-leaming by will
ingness on his part to do all that is

OUR LONG DRESS GOODS COUNTERS

ember days. How could it be other
wise with Winter just before us, and
such superb stock of Winter Dress
Goods-the products of two continents
displayed in apparently endless
profusion on a thousand feet Of coun-
tiers?
The question is sometimes asked;
Why carry so large a stocks, represen-
ting almost everything that is produced
abroad or at home? Would not a
smaller line equally satisfy the demand,
taking less room and leaving space for
other lines of goods? O,o' anSoOer IS
Dress Goods with us are the great
speciality of the business, and we prefer
to have not alone a sufficient, but an
ove,foeojag stock, not being content
simply to meet the demand but teadiag
1t ala0ays, and giving our patrons the
choice Of the worlds products.
Devoting ourselves not to general
merchandise, but to the great Dry
Goods business erct,tsjvely, we prefer
in that special business to lead the
country, devoting our whole time and
attention, with all the facilities of our
great organization, to the service of
our patrons in this line And with
every added year as the business grows
greater and has become Of national
repute, with orders coming to us from
every State and Territory Of the Union
notably from New York, Boston
and other centres of commerce-we
feel increasingly satisfied to continue
and still further perfect the service to
the great public, in the special but
comprehensive lines which belong to
the business of well-ordered dry

A TERRIBLE cyclone, carrying death
and destruction upon its wings, swept
over a portion of Beaufort county,
North Carolina, last week. Reports so
far received show that nine persons
were killed by it, and that more than
twenty were injured. The storm started
in the upper or northern portion of the
county and carried everything before
it, cutting swath half mile wide
through timber and strewing farms
with debris. Large oaks were uprooted
and carried hundreds Of yards by the
wind, and cotton fields were swept
clean, not even stalk or root being
left. Farmhouses were blown to
atoms, and the inmates in many in
stances had narrow escapes from
death.

NO DEATH IN EDISON'S WIRES.


RECEIVING THE FULL PRESSURE OF A
$50 HORSEPOWER DYNAMO.
"Now / place one hand here and the
other there" said Professor William d.
Marks, manager of the Edison Electric
Light Company, in the great SAMSON
street building yesterday afternoon. |
am running the full pressure of a $50
horsepower dynamo, which is supply
ing 5000 incandescent lights Our
currents are utterly uninjurious to a
human being. Try it"
The Press reporter, whom Professor
Marks was addressing, followed his
example. One hand he placed on the
negative pole and then the other on
the positive pole. He had completed
the circuit just as Lineman Feeks had
done, who met such horrible death
among the arc light wires in New
DIRK a week ago. There was a ting
ling sensation and an almost uncon-
trollable tendency of the hands to fly
from where they were placed. That
was all.
1t is impossible for the currents Of
the Edison Company to kill man.
The full force is 115 volts, and six
times that force, or 700 volts, would
prove fatal. The people who are killed
are those who come in contact with the
arc light wires. The enormous build
ing on SAMSON street already supplies
27,OOO lights and $4,000 will be going
by January |. The total capacity is
120,000-Philadelphia Press.
