Last night about IL o'clock Off
Ger Holiday saw small blaze of
fire, no larger than mans hand,
in the fourth story of the store of
the Davis Dry Goods Company in
the Hare building, on west Main

in the most serious confagration
from which Norfolk has suffered
since the huge Water street fire.

up for Offices and were occupied by
the following: E. B. Freeman 4
Co., fertilizers; Rountree & Co.,
cotton factors; Woolley & Co., same
Baxter cigar factory, Hearst's sail

COMMON ADVICE.

We often come across the following
well-meant but not very well considered
advice: "rry and keep the brightest OF
the boys on the farm. IL will afforu
plenty of exercise for his brains and for
all the knowledge he can accumulate"
The latter sentence Il undoubtedly true
enough but Il the first always sound'
We think not. Every boy, bright or
dull, has his destiny to al. lie may not
at first strike out on the right track, but
sooner or later he must drift into Il, and
II Il Is not to be on the farm, the more
inducements you hold out to keep him
there the longer he will be In finding it.
lie may be ever so bright and yet not
suited to be n farmer. Farmers as well
as poets are born to their calling. There
Il some one thing boy can do better
than anything else, aud he will not be
content until he finds his place. Woe
to the man that Il out OF place, whether
it be what IL called high or \ low one ;
and we believe that II he does not pur-
sue tn. calling for which he is suited In
this life, he must begin To work out his
destiny In another-for no one else can
do his task or act as q substitute In his
place. Find out the bent OF your boy u
YOU can, and smooth the way before
him. Don't make drudge OF him Tor
the sake Of keeping him on the farm
