THOSE eastern wholesale sharpers
who are trying to induce country
merchants to buy large quantities of
goods by making them believe that
goods will largely increase in price
because of the tariff, ought to have a
premium for Yankee shrewdness and
the Democrats who have gone into
partnership IN distributing the clrcu-
lars ought to be exposed for con-
spiracy against the country merchants

In another place may be seen an
address issued by the Republican
State Committee touching the late de-
cision of Judge Foster on prohibition.
1t seems that Foster has set aside the
Prohibitory law of the State, and IN
vited the dram shops to open up. He
says it will be necessary for the next
Legislature to re-enact the Prohibi-
tory law if the people want prohibit
ion So the issue of Prohibition or
Free Whiskey is again before the
peOple-not as side issue, but as an
all important main issue. The He,
publican party can be relied on as
standing for Prohibition. No other
party can be trusted on that great
question The Democratic party is
an anti-prohibItion party and the ''as~
sistant democrats" are not aggressive
prohibitionists. Let all who oppose
the saloon and its demoralizing in
huences, see to it that only reliable
prohlb;tionists are elected to the Leg
islature on the 4th of November

BE SURE IT Is PURE
Important suggestions to Those Buying
Candies.


Candies.
The name Of Andrew Antoni Is
household word In Richmond at Christ
mas times, aud what is moro important
il is name that represents pure candy.
In this day Of sdulteration that IS fact
that is well worthy of the serious consid-
Grafton OF parents. Pure candy is harm
less. Many adulteated candies are pol
sonous, and in some Of the northern
cities they are unceremonionsly seized
by the authorities and destroyed, as their
consumption has been demonstrated TO
be the cause OF much i'll health among
children. Marble dust, lena alba, and
other foreign substances that are put
into candies give weight, but they do
not dissolve in the stomach like pure
sugar. There are many coloring
matters that make pretty candy
which parents would not allow chill
dren to eat if they knew their
terrible effects. Antoni makes pure
candy, and that speaks volumes.
Candy-making is his business, and
neither through ignorance nor de-
sign does he allow anything deleterious
to enter into the manufacture OF hls
goods. A proof of this exists in the
fact that at present, on orders from old
citizens who know what pure candy Is,
he is shipping his goods all over the
country. The parent or child that buys
candy at either Antoni's downtown
store, 1105 Main street, or his uptown
store, Seventh and Broad. can rest as
sured that il is harmless, whether 1t is
manufactured by Antoni himself or I'M
ported, for Antoni is an expert and the
most ingenious Of foreign manufacturers
of bon-bons, &C.. cannot deceive him.
These are important truths. In buying
candy it is well to know not only the
man you patronize, but to know that he
is master of the candy-making trade.

Think you Santa will come

But I'll clean up real nice, mama;
Maybe he knows you're ILL.,,
And AS he goes long by our door,
He'll stop, perhaps he WILL
Don't shake your head at me. mama,

And don't think. my mama, dear,

That lovely Christmas morn,
Most gently kissed its glittering rays
A face so pale and worn;
Beside her stood little one
With hair Of wavy gold,
And face a. fair as angels pure
That came to earth OF old.
"Now, mamma" she iswhispering,
"Just listen. Late last night

And Rugged up close TO you
And oh mamma. do you oeheVe,

But, dear. what was it that made the

"why, mamma, don't know,
For you were fast asleep, and
Dare not near that door go.
But oh perhaps twas santa Claus"
And with hugh OF giee
Away the little fairy flew,
Unlocked the door TO see.
Back swung the door. The little sprite
Stood there transfr'd, amaz'd.
While mamma, filed With wonder. too,
Sat up In bed and gazed
At all the funny, funny things
That there before her lay.
While little Elsie danced about,
Too fuli word TO say.
There toys and candies, nuts and cakes,
And mits and shoes aud SOCKS;
A pretty dress, bonny sack,
A bow, too. for her locks.
Then for mama, thick, wsrm cloak,
And many things 80 nice;
Strange. she recalled her dariings words,
"God VIII not tell him twice."
So passed that day in bliss untold,
Tho cold ths room and bare;
Upon those faces fair and sweet,
Lay noe one trace Of care.
And gently fell tho fading rays
On Eines head bent low.
