Yesterday we told about
our sheetiDgs, counterpanes,
towels, table-cloths, ging-
hams, zephyr-cloths, sateens
and one kind Of ladies' hose.
Our stock is entirely new
and every department
full except where we are
obliged to wait for spring
goods to be opened, as has
been frequently the case in
our dress goods department.
We deem it best to mention
only a few lines daily, as the
entire stock is not a week
old, and to..speak OF all at
once would be like setting
one down to a dinner con-
tanning all the substantials
and delicacies the market
affords. We will commence
with the substantials at once
and mention all wool Hen.
riettas, but TO call them Hen.
rlettas seems to us like
"twistlng the truth" and for
old acquaintance sake will
say all wool cashmeres. We
were fortunate enough to
get a full line of shades, but
can not duplicate them. The
price is SO cents per yard.
You can not make haste too
fast to see them. We are
young, but dissanced all com.
petitors on them yesterday.

count Of the short cotton crop. Too
much was depending on cotton. At
one time during the past summer,
the prospect was seldom, If ever,

OF the worst habits in the country,
viz: buying on credit. consequent
ly great many good people will not
be able to pay out.
The merchandise some extent
are to blame for a great deal of the

was good for big cotton crops, they
encouraged their customers to buy.

Mrs. ANNE nj. Palmer.

This noted Temperance worker
will address the people of Russell
vile at the Cumberland Presbyter-
an church, Thursday and Friday
evenings, Dec. IL and Is. The
Woman's Chronicle OF Little Rock
speaks of her and her work in the
following terms:
The meetings of Mrs. Annie M.
Palmer, superintendent of eyangelistic
work of the N. w. C. Il. u. now being
held in our city, are of a most inter-
esting and excellent character. Her
expositions of scripture and the appli-
cation of its teachings to the cause of
temperance are exceedingly apt and
suggestive. The writer has listened to
several Of these readings and never
listened to any with greater pleasure
or profit. On Friday evening she dis
cussed the leprosy of Naaman and the
liquor leprosy and did it we'll. OH Sat-
urday evening she showed how ardent
spirits are Satan's instrument for de-
basing. as the Holy Spirit is Gods In
strument for exalting mankind. On
Sabbath morning she showed how the
temperance movement and the employ
ment of women in it, is as penticostal a
work as was the work of Peter and his
associates at Penteeost, or of Finny
and others later. In the afternoon her
discourse on "Faith" showed conclu-
sivcly that Noah in building the ark.
Abraham in seeking another country,
Moses in crossing the Red Sea, and
Joshuain marching down the walls of
of Jericho, were no more under the
guidance of God than are the women
and temperance people OF the land to-
day in their determination to extermi-
nate the liquor traffic. On Monday
evening she dwelt upon consecra-
tion--that God wants set apart people.
There are too few of this sort. The
popular creed runs about thus:
l.. Ministers and deacons must, OF
course, be irreproachable,
2. Women must be purer than men.
8. or two evils you must choose the
least.
A. SO long as conscience does not
hurt me In what do it's all right.
5. If 1t doesn't happen Co be all
right shall have some chance later or
hereafter TO make 1t SO.
; Ne warrant for such positions, never
theless, hundreds in the church and
out of it subscribe TO such creed.

Fair weather is one of the inter
esting features of the past week and
has been both appreciated and we'll
used by our thrifty farmers, who
have been rapidly gathering the re-
mains of their cotton crops, which
are good here as elsewhere. SO far
as our knowledge extends, corn crops
are all gathered and they are indeed
abundant, for which we feel very
thankful. Wheat crops look
moderately well through our coun
try, though the acreage is small.
Our farmers raise wheat only for
their own consumption. This
amount they can well afford to
handle, as our Touring mill is second
to none IN the county. Also Messrs.
Burris Il Brant succeed well IN
grinding corn, saving lumber, and
especially in ginning cotton.

Davis, of Gum Log, again has charge

Two Needed improvements.

Two NCCuCu improvements s
The proposition to put in system
Of water works al this place is as
Stunning shape. At the last meeting
Of the town council Mr.. B. j. Strick-
land asked for a franchise for ten
years and obligated himself to con-
struct the plant for use on Main,
jefferson and River streets under
certain conditions. The proposition
was referred to the street committee
for examination and recommends
ton. No more important matter has
come before the council In q long
time, and the authorities should be
certain to make no mistake in dis
posing of the question. That we
need the water works and the many
conveniences and advantages their
possession would yield, there can be
no denial. In addition to this, and
a necessary adjunct of it, too, is a
we'll equipped fire company. Our
people are as industrious and heroic
in cases Of fire as any on the face Of
the globe, but their efforts are oft
times Intellectual because of the lack
of organization and the absence Of
trained leader. From what we
have been able to learn we believe
that such company could be organ
lied with but little trouble. Let
some one take the initiative, call q
meeting, discuss the matter and we
feel quite sure splendid organiza-
ton will be the result. Through the
display of the proper public spirit
we can have both the water works
and fire company, two improve
ments that will be beneficial to the
town and bespeak live and pro-
eressiye people.
