Something said in this col
umn a few days since about
Courtauld's Black Grapes in
spired great interests. An
equal stock Of them has never
been shown in this city. There
is a mystery in Black Silks
Grape known best to Court
auld, but that his are peerless
is nc mystery.
We had a conviction regard
ing Black Dress Goods for
Spring. The courage of
our convictions has brought
you a stock the match to which
in variety and quantity does
not exist in this country.
The great witness to this
assertion is the line Of Grena-
dines-remem6e,- aoe refer 0nLy
to blacks to-day. The largest
expert skill alone could COL
lect them. Shortly the prices
will vary from soc to $40 the
yard-the lowest to-day is ST..
They are plain, open, and
Mexican Mesh, bordered and
striped, figured with damask
and set patterns, checks and
plaids. The fabrics are silk,
sewing silk, silk and-wool and
wool. Some of the highest
Partisan novelties are in these
black Grenadines. 1t seems
absurd that a tuft of black
sleeps wool, or black goats
hair stuck on a ground of
most delicate texture should
accurately describe a raving
black novelty-very stylish.
The step between the stubility
homely and the brightly ele-
giant is short. The art comes
in knowing how to take it.
More about blacks soon.

it is true, and could prove it if old Bill
Benson were alive. Well, the snakes
that did the fighting were small black
ones, black runners we called them down
there. They were not more than three
feet long, but gamer fighters never lived.

ten minutes when one of them got the
others tail in his mouth and began to
swallow.
THE mouth and throat were so small
the entire body of the other snake would
not go down, but the sharp teeth of the
reptile peeled off the skin clean all
around, and then the swallowing of the
skinless body was easy enough Well,
that skinning and swallowing must have
hurt awfully, but that snake was clear
grit. He didn't say a word, but Just
reached round and took hold of the tail
of the snake that was swallowing him.
He'd caught on to this skinning. lick,
and in few moments these two snakes
were swallowing each other, like a hun

and watched them, old Bill Benson and
me, and you may believe it or not, but
in less than two minutes after they had
fairly got started, them two snakes had
swallowed each other. Yes, sir, there

Thirty-fye years ago a farmer built a
log cabin in st. Louis county, Missouri ,
for less than $500, and a few days ago the
house was sold, without the land, for
- 900.
The farmer who built the cabin with
his own hands and the help Of a few
mel ghbors was Tlyses 5. Grant. At
that time he saw nothing before him but
life of toll and poverty, and yet in af
ter years he became the general of the
army, the president OF the nation, and
stood before kings.
Many an American president many an
American millionaire-ha begun life in
a log cabin. In fact, This humble home
seems to stand at the beginning of every
typical Americans caTeet.
After Grant had reaped Ill the rewards
and honors of success, he bought the Old
