Odd Jobs q Speciality.

Tho latest thing devised to lessen the
labor Of living and the cares of a house
keeper is q corporation known as the
odd Job and Tinkering company,
limited. The parent office of the con-
Germ is naturally enough in New York
but according to its prospectus 1t has, or
will have, subsidiary companies i'll all
the large cities.
1t is a charming idea-this odd job
company-and the man who originated
the scheme deserves a vote of thanks for
his ingenuity. Though limited i'll its
liabilities, its scope Of usefulness is not
curtailed, but is as limitless as human
wants may necessitate.
If Mary takes it into her head to visit
her cousin on wash day and remains alb
sent for a week, a postal card to the odd
job company at once brings a substitute
who will perform all the multitudinOus
duties of the down stairs girl" with ex-
petition and dispatch. And so it goes
on through every department of the
household.
You send postal card" says the adj
vertisement calling attention to the COM
pany, land we will do the rest" This
remainder, as further specified, includes
housekeeping, painting, mason and lock
smithing work, clerical work and mis-

numerous to mention, but all of the

A NEW FIRM.
A. to Powell & Co a Firm Which is Bust
ness from the Start.

A new grocery firm, and one which is
in the race to win, is that of Powell Il
Co., Mangum street, at the stand form
erly occupied by the Durham Fertilizer
company.
Mr.. Powell came to Durham about
two months ago, opened up fresh and
choice line of fancy groceries, and put
out his sign. The new firm commenced
to do business on the day it opened and
was in it from the start. AS it became
better known its trade increased, and
to-day it is disputing ground with many
older and better known grocery houses
Mr.. Powell is a man who attends to
his business and will look after the in
terest of his customers. He keeps the
best in the market. His clerks are po-
lite and always at their post, and the man
who deals with the new firm can always
be sure of their doing tie square thing.

Where Things are Called by Their Right
Name and None Are Deceived.
Since Durham was a town at all the
name of G. T. Postley has been so closely
identified with the jewelry business of
the city, that to talk of jewelry without
talking of Postley would be like writing
history of Durham without mentioning
Buck Black well. He started and built
up the jewelry business no less than
Blackwell started and built the town, and
the best thing about it all is that he is
still building.
Colonel Postley is one of the men who
believes that the world was not made in
day and that whatever is worth doing
at all is worth doing we'll. He believes
in calling paste paste, and would never
attempt to pass it as a diamond. 1t was on
this line that he started out to do bust
ness, and people generally understand
that in buying jewclry at this establish
ment they will get the article represented
and nothing else.
Postley's is not only headquarters for
watches and jewelry, but lie carries one
of the largest and handsomest lines of
Sllyerware in the state, and is the one to
consult always on the subject of wedding
presents, birthday souvenirs or gifts for
any and every occasion, He knows what

THE KELLEY INSTITUTE !
Twelve Years Of Established Merit !!
NOTE OF WARNINCI
TO THE PUBLIC:

/
DWIGHT, H., April 80, 1892.
As a matter of justice to ourselves and to
the reputation of Dr. Leslie E. Keeley's
Double Chloride OF Gold remedies. for the
cure of the liquor, opium, morphine and
| tobacco diseases and Neurasthenia, We warn
the public that these remedies are used by
no institution or sanitarium in the United
States except those established by ouI COM
pany under the uniform name of "The
Kelley Institute"
All others claiming to use our remedies
are frauds and imposters.
We have now sixty Kelley Institutes es-
! tablished in various parts Of the United
States where the Kelley treatment is adj
ministered and the Kelley remedies sold
We, however, caution all to examine we'll
and know that they are dealing with genuine
representatives, authorized by us, before
taking the treatment or purchasing remedies.
The fraudulent establishments use the name
of "Bi-Chloride of Gold," or similar titles.
The newspapers do not discriminate suffi-
GENTLY to know that they are imitators, and
so put down all accidents occurring at such
establishments as being brought about by
the Kelley treatment. This is a matter Of
much concern to us, hence this warning
Respectfully yours,
THE LESLIE f. KELLEY co.
Curtis J. Judd, Sec'y and Treas.
The Kelley institute at Greensboro, N. c.
is the only one in the state, and all repre-
sensations that there is in the state any cure
that is identical with, or the same as, the
Kelley Double Chloride of Gold Cure are
malicious, false, and made for the purpose of
deceiving We learn with indignant regret
that such claim is being made, and feeling
that if it be hurtful to us it will prove more
disastrous to those who are deceived thereby
we sound this warning.

drive sailing boats against the current at

current is strong enough to carry a boat
