HARRIS COACH SHOP AND FACTORY:
For the first time s'nce the enlarge
ment of the Coach shop and Factory
of Mr. Geo Harris. on Wafer Street,
We visited it few days since. and
found it to be a picelv and conve-
nient!v arranged establishment The
building Is a two story structure
roomy and very suitable for coach
work. The Sc >ond floor is used for
manufacturing wheels. cushions. ami
all light parts to vehicles, &c. while
the lower floor is used for painting,
and black smith aud al heavy work.
Mr. Harris. whose indomitablg
energy. hacked by his inti.n,te knowl-
edge of the business. has e, abIed him
to pace himself in the foremost rank
in the trade he represents. and the
quickness with which he supplies all
demands has been largely instrument
tai in bringing about his signal sue
cess. Mr. Harris is truly deserving
of the patronage he receives.

BRINKLEY'S EMPORIUM:

Brinklev's Emporium is house

household word Of this entire sec

Mr.. BrinkIey is believer in ad-
vertising and patron of the FISH
ERMAN & FARMER. He tells US that
the advertisement we are carrying
for him IS dong good work, and he
is now daily receiving orders from
abroad. He says he is comic ent that
this new trade comes to him through
the work of the FISHERMAN & FAR
MER, for nearly every day someone
mentions his lad to him.
Mr., Brinkley is thorough bust
ness man, we'll versed in every detail
of his trade, having been in the same
line Of business IN Edenton for about
20 years. He is a straightforward
man, attends strictly and personally
to his business and is we'll liked and
respected br everybody A glance
in at h S well filed and elegantly
beautifully arranged Emporium is
enough to satisfy one that it would
be an easy task to make a selection.

We are indebted to Mr.. Paul w. Har-

ty, n. c., for an invitation to be present
at the annual commencement, May 90.
We notice his name appears on the
card as one of the Marshals of the day.
The card is a neat one.
The FISHERMAN AND FARMER is well
acquainted with the fact tina our Coun.
cilmen have a greRt deal of trouble in
keeping the city in a perfectly clean
condition during the summer months.
| There are many things that individ uals
can do toward keeping their O. prem
ises clean which will relieve the town
authorities and be good for the indiyid-
uals. Let every body keep his own lot
| in good order.
The season for the merchants to begin
closing early is at hand. We see from
| the papers that the merchants in nearly
| every town of any size in the State have
| commenced to close at p, m. every
day except Saturdays. Now, why can t
Edenton merchants adopt the same
| rule? Let some one make a move in
| this matter, and show your hard work
ing clerks your appreciation by giving
them d few hpuf : recreation and rest.
