The man that does not advertise
should not be troubled with much bust
ness. He is not the sort of a man that
honest people care to deal with. The
man that is too stingy to advertise is
mean enough to sand his sugar and
water his vinegar. Steer clear of him.

IL isn't the usual aoay
its just the reverse-to pay a
patient when you can't cure him.
Nevertheless, that's what's done by
the proprietors of DR.. Sage's Ca
tarrh Remedy. They promise to
pay you $500 if they can't cure
your catarrh, no matter how bad
the case. 1t isn't mere talk-it's
business. You can satisfy yourself
of it, if you're interested. And you
ought to be, if you have catarrh.
It's faith in their medicine that's
behind the offer. 1t has cured
thousands of the worst cases, where
everything else failed. You can be
cured, too. If you can't, you get
the money. They're willing to take
the risk-you ought to be glad to
take the medicine.
It's the cheapest medicine you
can buy, because it's guaranteed to
give satisfaction, or your money is
returned.
You only pay for the good you
get. Can you ask more?
That's the peculiar plan all DR..
Pierce's medicines are sold on.

Iron Market IN the South Shows Promis-
ing Signs.

BIRMINGHAM. Feb. l2-Thc iron market
is s,ihening up. Iron masters are much
encouraged by the outlook.
All the furnaces now running have more
orders than they can fill, and some have
refused to take any more orders for three
weeks yet They have all sold several
weeks ahead, and one large furnace COM
panv is said to have booked $4,000 tons
ahead.
1t is the opinion of the posted iron men
that if the furnaces now out of blast in
Pennsylvania and Ohio remain idle thirty
DAYS longer the price of iron will 90 up at
least 80 cents.
Iron here is now quoted as follows: No.
foundry $l2.5G; No. ,, $ll; No. 3, $l0.50;
gray forge, $lO.5.
The demand is extraordinarily good,
and inquiries are numerous.
Since the end Of the coal miners strike
four furnaces have blown in and all others
now idle, some seven or eight, will start
as soon as repair work now in progress is
finished Several of them will blow in
right away and arc now stocking up with
that object i'll view.
Said prominent iron master; ~ on
can say that not Il single furnace in the
Birmingham district is idle OH account of
any labor trouble or on account Of the low
price of iron. Those idle are being re-
paired and those running are selling more
than they can make.

years. William II. Railey, one of the most
prominent and beloved citizens Of Versailles,
terminated his life by blowing out his brains

this morning, as is his usual custom, and
lighted the fire in his bedroom, in which
his wife and several small children also slept.
Before his intentions were OWNED by his

he took pistol from his bureau. and placing

to public demonstrations in his honor to
subject himself to such unless unavoida-
bic. That the party have some great mo-
tive for the trip is quite apparent, but all
efforts so far by representatives Of the

Mr.. Dilton says he was invited along to see
the country; Mr.. Inman says he is showing
the Richmond Terminal, and Gen. Thomas
is too sly for a newspaper reporter.
The most plausible explanation of the
Journey is that Mr.. Gould has recently
purchased large block of the stock of
the Richmond Il West Point Terminal

= LAck uF NOVELTY.

There is painful lack of novelty about
the fashionable street dress. Except for
the variation in coors the gowns that fol-
low one another up and down the Ladies
Mile NOWADAYS have idcntically similar
features But. even as to color, that
seems 10 range from tan to dark brown IN
the main an occasional dark green or blue
breaking the monotony. However, some
innovations are lrintcd for early spring.
The fou,1eau skirt, indeed, has taken so
strong hold upon popular favor that it
is doubtful whether the gowns Of the COM
ing season will offer any change in this
direction. It is upon the basque that the
ingenuity of the m0destes Will he cXerted.
and we may expect that the present plain
waist will he much elaborated. Whether
we have not now reached perfection in
walking dress is question restless fash
ion makers have not paused to examine.
