We handle China Mattings
very largely, and our most
popular goods have been the
iointless or seamless Damask
Mattings now SO generally
used. There is nothing cooler
or more pleasant than a matted
house, provided you get good
qualities-poor mattings being
about the meanest things you
can put on tie floor.
The seamless mattings being
the same on both sides, or re
versible gives you the oppor-
tunity to get double wear.
BY the piece we will sell the
soc. qualities for $50. and the
4oc. qualities for 25c.
The regular stock styles are
in about thirty different pat
terms at very low prices.

When the applause which followed
Senator Grays speech subsidized, General
Hart introduced Hon. Charles B. Lore,
who said that all seemed to be agreed on
the necessity for q change. He then re
viewed the history Of the organic law in
the commonwealth. The first constitu
ton, which was framed in 1776, was
carefully framed, but in twenty years it
had to be changed The second one was
equally well framed, but in 1881 1t had to
be changed There is but little change
between the constitution of 1896 and
1881 They simply changed some
thing in relation to the state
treasurer and in providing for way to
fill vacancy in the goveruorship. They
limited the life of corporations to twenty
years 1t also made the qualifications Of
a voter lighter. But the new constitution
changed the manner Of calling a conven-
ton. 1t is said the change was made by
John M Clayton, and the time for hold
ing the election for convention was
changed from the time Of the general
election to the third Tuesday ia May,
when nothing elss was going on. Mr.
Clayton had locked the door aud thrown
the key away Ia 1857 he recoguiz the
necessity Of a change, bat his motion
was lost. There was lesson in this.
