Christmas Luxuries.

For Christmas dinners-or any
other-the first thing the chef does
is to select his meats. He knows
he can't have good dinner without
good meats. There is a most tempt.
ing display at Major Keener's mar
ket There are fine rich looking
sides of beef, pork, veal, hams, lard,
sausage, oysters, pudding, chops,
roasts and everything else The
Major always supplies his custo-
mers with the best of everything.
If you can't find something for a
dainty dinner here you may as well
give it up. You can even get ten
der lunches of celery.

A High Tribute,

Hon. George C. sturgiss, who was
the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor in 1880 when Governor Jack
son was elected, paid high tribute
to the deceased Governor in CONVEX
satipn with the State Journal. He
said that nobody could know him
personally without loving him, and
that he never knew man who took
more delight in doing things for
other people. Mr.. Sturgiss was a
warm personal friend of the Cover
nor and was deeply moved at his
death. He was attending court at
Kingwood, but dropped all business
and came on to attend the funeral
of his friend.-Parhersburg Jour

Tons of choice white and yellow
corn meal and hominy are being
shipped to Pittsburgh, Wheeling and
other points by the Victor Mills Co.,
and then reshipped to West Virgin
ia and sold to our people as choice
foreign hominy and meals. Thus
does distance lend so much enchant-
ment to view that we pay freights
both ways and a profit to the middle
man and retailer for that which we
can get at home without these ad-
ded costs. Buy direct from the Vic
tor Mills Co., fresh ground meals
and newly made hominy for cash,
and save these extra costs.
The enterprise of those who are
unusually so fruitful in plans for
yuletide gayety is this season being
directed to raising funds for the
poor, to the conspicuous lack of
events social. And this is commend
able and all very we'll But if Nor

will find that a charity ball is the

raising funds. The larger towns in
this state each year have a charity
ball. 1t is eminently 'the" event OF
the season. Everybody of wealth
and fashion turns out, and dancing
is a mere incidental Of many forms
of amusement introduced, there be-
ing something in the line of interest
and entertainment to suit all who
attend. Then there are all manner
of boquets, bon bons, refreshments
and all that for sale, the whole being
made to realize handsome sum.
