" Continual dropping wears
away the stone" ?"
The continual breaking of
lamp-chimneys costs a good
deal in the course of a year.
You can stop it. Get Mac
beth's "pearl top" or pearl
glass" You will have no more
trouble with breaking from
heat. You will have clear glass
instead of misty; fine instead
of rough; right shape instead
of wrong; and uniform, one
the same as another.
You will pay a nickel a CHM

will gain in goodwill what he
loses in trade; he will widen
his trade by better service.

praise is on every tongue. His
tribute to Southern women was a

Like their sisters Of Carthage
we wove their fair trcsSes into
chords TO speed the arrow at the
breast Of Rome. They too changed
their rich robes into silkcn banners
under which the soldiers marched
against the invader while
they committed their fair hands
to labor and their pure souls TO
prayer.
Colonel kenan was among cd
friends and comrades, and was
9trihinSly happy and appropriate
IN his remark, TO the old veterans.
4 nice contribution was given to
tho Davis Monument Fund, after
which the old soldiers partook Of an
