1000 and the year of the Independence of the
United States the 224th, it will be no longer
the United States of North America, but
the United States of North, Central, and
South America, and the then President will
then issue Thanksgiving Day proclamation
to nearly thousand million people. The
mind fails to grasp our industrial and COM
mercial expansion at that day; the wonder
full progress in the arts and sciences; the
tremendous energy with which enterprise
after;enterprise will be conceived and made
a reality.

Like an Old Roman.

The Emperor of Russia has just dec
grated and rewarded private soldier
whose fidelity to his duty recalls the
stories of the Roman sentinels who
persisted in the destruction of Pompeii.
When the recent earthquake destroyed
a small Russian town in Central Asia,
this soldier was on duty in the Mill
tary Treasury. Although the houses
were crashing around him, this faithful
fellow stood motionless, waiting death.
The only sign which showed that he
unprecedented his situation was the
fact that he raised his hands as sol
diers do in prayer. Fortunately a Ser
geant in the street saw him amid the
ruins, and instantly ordered him to
quit his post, which he did right will

A Sad Accident.

Two infant children of Samuel
Wheeler and Charles Stratton OF
Ray county, were drowned i'll Wax
ando creek few days ago. The two
men with their wives and two chill
dren each started in large wagon
to visit friends distant. On account
of the recent rains the creek was
quite high. The women objected to
crossing, but the men insisted that
there was no danger. The flood,
however, carried the wagon down
stream and overturned it. On com
ing to the surface the first object
that met Stratton's gaze was two
children floating past him. He
caught them upon the bank and
made for his wife fifty yards down
the stream. He caught her but
their infant child was torn out Of
her arms by the current and lost.
Wheeler succeeded in overtaking his
wife floating down the stream, but
before he could get to her, her in
FAINT was also torn from her arms by
some floating brush and lost. Mrs.
Wheeler was rescued just as she
was sinking below the flood for the
third time.

Explanation.

We have been telling you all summer
how we began the buggy business nine
years ago, and now probably you would
like To know how we are succeeding. We
will tell you. First we like to tell it be
cause it did so much for our fellow citi-
zens. and second, because it has placed Us
in the foremost rank among the large
dealers in this great State of ours. We
believe we have the largest wholesale
trade. and are confident We have the lar
gest retail trade also To give you an
idea. our Mr Lieghner has Just returned
from y. Y. State. where he contracted to
have twenty-five thousand dollars worth of
one kind Of carts made; this We believe is
the largest deal of the kind ever made in
the State Just think OF il, so, 600 worth
Of one kind of road carts, and then think Of
the many other kinds We are handling.
You would naturally ask, Where do they
go," We could not tell you here. the
freight agents at the different depOtS could
give you some idea. but they 90. One
thing you may be certain of, that it's not
buying dcdF and selling high that makes
them GO Then think of the number of
Buggies. Wagons. Harness. &c. that We
amount we have sold since last January.
You ask again. how does it come. Can't
others buy for cash too and sell just as
cheap as you do, We answer: We use our
own capital; we pay no rent; we have not
bought a bill in 9 years, that we did dis
count. You see we make this n business
exclusively and are Ian &c dealers the ad-
vantage you will understand in an instant
when we tell you. According to agree
ment among carriage manufacturers the
price is uniform on same grades of work,
but purchasers of 80 jobs or more get dis
count of 3 per cent; purchasers of 100 jobs
or more get a dis count of per cent, and
purchasers of 800 Jobs or more get a dis
count of 10 per cent, which is the largest
discount allowed any dealer, and as we
buy more than 300 you see we can sell you
work at the same price small dealers pay,
and still have profit of 10 per cent. Now
fellow citizens we are perfectly willing to
give you the benefit of our advantage in
the market, for it is your patronage that
helps us. and it is only right that while you
stand with Us we should not betray your
confidence, and we won't. Remember we
are here all the time, our word is as good
as gold. You know what you are getting
every time. we tell you plainly. We have
all kinds, the cheapest and the very best,
so can Just suit you: we don't try to get
rich Off one customer. We never mis-
represent Call and see us, whether yon
want to buy or not.
