Obituary.

Mr.. =. Il. Evans died at his home in
Vance county, near WilliamsborOugh,
n. c.. Sunday morning about 9 O'Clock,
January 25th, 1891, after only few
DAYS illness. His last words were con
selling to his wife and dear little children,
only bidding them adieu to meet him i'll
the beautiful land of rest. He was a de-
voted and useful member OF the Island
Creek Baptist Church. In his death the
home is bereft of one OF the best of hus-
bands and one OF the kindest fathers,
and the church and Sunday school have
sustained great loss in SO faithful a
member. But the Lord knew best, and
called him up higher. His funeral was
preached by Rev. j. \. Stradley at Is
land Creek Church to a large assemblage
of relatives and friends, and many sor-
rowful couutenances and fearful eyes
gave eloquent testimony to the worth OF
him who had been taken away. May the
Lord bless and comfort each OF the sor-
rowing loved ones as He only can. Sweet
1 is the memory of those who to Jesus
1 we're faithful and true.
| so, can it be that he has left Us?
| Can it be his spirits fed?
He who once was here among us,
| Is he numbered with the dead?
Yes, it's he, though friends were round
| him,
They could not prolong his stay;
No, the Master, He had called him,
| Loved ones beckoned him away.
Yes, methinks they sweetly whispered,
Brother spirit, come away,
Leave a world of pain and sorrow,
Come to realms of endless day.
Then his DAYS below were numbered.
And his work on earth was done,
| Naught shall break his silent slumbers,
| Naught beneath the rising sun.
10, may we like him be ready
When we're called from earth away,
| There to meet our Lord and Savior,
Glad the summons to obey" M

Body Building' by Mr.. Il. G. Diggs
Monday evening. 1t was highly inter-

The Effect of Advertising.

An authority on the subject, who
has fully tested the matter and speaks
from observation, says this about
newspaper advertising:
There is one thought in connection
with a merchants weekly advertising
that should influence the man that
thinks he does well if he inserts few
lines once month. 1t is fair to assume
that every attractively written and dis
played advertisement brings one or more
new customers to the house.
Now, if the merchant tells the truth in
his announcement, and the customers
finds his goods exactly what he said
they would find them, they'll not only
buy, but they'll talk about the goods
and the store to their friends. More
than that, they'll go to that store again
and again, and again, so that the mer-
chants enterprise and his regard for
truth build up his trade right under his
eyes,
Therefore wesay-keep at it, week after
week! Don't throw your money away;
but don't be timid either! Every new
advertisement brings people to your
store that were never there before, and
if you treat them right they'll stick!

Unthrifty Thrift.

To reduce expenses and sacrifice
efficiency is unthrifty thrift. To stop
advertising and diminish bust ness is I'M
thrifty thrift. To save clerk-hire and
lose sales is unthrifty thrift. Thrift is
the good old Icelandic word for growth,
and where there is no growth there is no
thrift Many man is regarded thrifty
who is simply penurious. Thrift does
not always lie in saving; it often lies in
spending Thrift scattereth and yet in
creaseth. Unthrift withholdeth more
than is meet, and tendeth to poverty.
Don't be afraid of expenses in business, if
you connect the proper enterprise with
it. An advertisement in your local
paper is an example Of that thrifty thrift
that scattereth and yet wonderfully in
creaseth any business. - Fancy Goods

ELI PERKINS.
Strong Words of Endorsement
of the Popular Author, iIu-
mOrist and Lecturer.

The Bismarck, Dakota. Tribune says
this of Eli Perkins, the celebrated lee
turer whom our people are to have an
opportunity of hearing Tuesday eve
ming, Feb. 10:
That Eli Perkins is a success as a hum
orous and philosophical lecturer none
who have heard him can doubt, and it is
with pleasure that the Tribune proclaims
his excellencies. Mr.. Perkins separates
wit from humor. and shows that while
humor is the plain and faithful portrayal
of the truth, wit is higher and more ad-
mirable, as it is the blossom of humor
through the creative genius of the mind.
In his word-pictures Mr.. Perkins is vivid
and true, and in his mirth-provoking
climaxes he has no superior. He gives
the most natural and convincing Illus
trations of the various causes of laugh
ter from the tiresome syllogism Of ancient
humorists to the clean-out conundrum
and startling paradox of represent day
Those who go to hear Mr.. Perkins may
| expect to hear lecture which is not only
humorous and witty, but which is filled
| with solid, irrefutable argument and
| original illustrations His answer to
Ingersoll is too good for criticism, il
must be heard to be enjoyed.

Old Nursery FaVOrites.

Who went to sea in a bowl;
The woman who rode on a brOomStick,
And swept the cobwebbed sky,
And the boy who sat in the corner,
Eating his Christmas pie.
These are some of the old favorites, but
they have been supplanted by the "Pansy''

The oldfashiOned pills and physics have

that the most delicate child can take

ROGERS GOES FREE.
The Grand Jury Failed to Find
a True Bill Against Him.

Ex-Sheriff c. NJ. Rogers, of Gran
vile county, who was charged with
poisoning w. T. Parker about the
first of the year, particulars of which
were published in this paper. is a free
man. The grand jury failed to find a
true bill against him. The jury stood
nine for true bill and nine against a
true bill. On motion of counsel for
the defendant he was discharged by
the court. From the Oxford Day Of
Friday we take the following:
The grand jury was several days ex-
aiming witnesses in the case OF {. Nj.
Rogers and Mrs. Cornelia Parker,
charged with causing the death, by
poison, of W. T. Parker. The solicitor
decided to use Mrs. Parker as State
witness. This morning the jury reported
to the court that they were unable to
agree, 8 standing for and 8 opposed
to the finding of a true bill against Col
Rogers. His Honor decided that it was
not true bill and discharged the jury
This afternoon w. X. Henry, employed
by brother of the murdered Parker to
assist in the prosecution, addressed the
court, and said that the bill not found
true against Col Rogers was for murder
of Parker only. He asked that Col
Rogers be held for action OF another
grand jury for murder of Brock Bailey
Mai. A. W. Graham and J. T. Strayhorn
counsel for Col. Rogers, made short
/ speeches in opposition. Solicitor Parker
| asked that a mol pros be entered i'll favor
of Mrs. Parker, and he saw no reason
for holding Col. Rogers longer.
Judge Boykin instructed the clerk tC
record mol pros and not a true bill in thu
case, and ordered Col. Rogers and Mrs.
Parker TO be discharged.
