work, "Sandow on Ply sical Culture, =
upon which, in association with Mr..
Sandow, he has been engaged Tor
several months past, at the instance
of j. Selwin TAFT & Sons, Publishers
The publishers are careful to explain
in announcing the book that merely
as phenomenally strong man San
dow is of no interest to them what
ever, but as the discoverer and ex-
ponent of a system of simple ath
letics, whereby a boy of average
physique may be developed into a
form of vital and muscular strength,
such as claims and receives the adj
mira ton of the civilized world, his
experience is of surprising interest
to every individual and every father
of a family. The book contains San
dow's photograph as astudious boy,
and numerous photographs by
Sarony and other eminent photog-
raphers, with full Illustrations of the
great athletes various exercises. VI.
Casarin, a pupil of MISSIONER, has
also illustrated the book profusely
with marginal sketches.

Christmas on Monday.

Christmas falls on Monday this
year. We have the authority of an
old poetic philosopher for including
this fact among the signs of a hard
winter. The document, according to
the London Times, twas unearthed in
1865 from the Herleian manuscripts,
No. 2252, folies 1884 in the British
Museum. 1t reads as follows:
Ii Christmas On Monday be,
A great winter that year you'll see,
And full of winds both loud and shrill;
But in summer, truth to tell,
High winds shall there be, and strong,
Full of tempests lasting long;
While battles they shall multiply;
And great plenty of beasts shall die,
They that be born that day, / ween,
They shall be strong each one and
keen;
He shall be found that stealeth aught:
Tho thou be sick thou dieth out.

Old Liberty Bell.

The frontispiece OF Blue and Gray
for December patriotic American
Co, Philadelphia) is full of the pa
triotic spirit which pervades this
magazine, 1t represents the Old
Liberty Bell in its rusty green-black
surrounded by handsome Christmas
wreath of holly leaves and berries,
the whole effect being artistic and
we'll worthy of a frame. The public
is gradually learning that Blue and
Gray is not simply military publi-
cation, but one in which broad and
lofty patriotism, regardless of sec
ton or party, plays a most promi-
nent part. The patriotic Youths
Department" this month is unusual
ly strong In fact. the magazine in
terests the young people quite as
much as the old veterans of the blue
and the gray, and it's rapidly grow
ing popularity is doubtless due to
this circumstance. The publishers
offer to send back numbers as
samples, free of charge, during the
month of December.

HAPPY HOME.

A holy place is home,
Where loved ones are gathered round,
Where mother, sire and sisters dear,
And brothers and friends are found.
A holy place is the hearthstone.
Homes innermoSt mates are there,
Laden with blessed benson,
And hallowed by loving prayer.
A holy place is a home,
What clustering joys abide
Where the cradle of our infancy,
Was rocked by our mothers side.
a holy place is home,
Where children's pattering feet,
Go glancing in shade and sunshine
To the music of pleasures beat.
A holy place is a home,
Where the youth have Wooed and won,
And wed and gone TO the battle
OF life with full armor on.
A holy place is home,
Where manhood has settled down,
With blessings bloSSoming round him
And love for priceless crown.
A holy place is home,
Whence the old and young have gone
To rest from their weary labor
When the battle of life is done
And oh, from a lovely home,
When parted from those we love,
, May we go to meet in that home
| OF our Fathers house above.

The Soul of a Bishop.

Mrs. Stannard, who is best known
by her nom de plume of John
Strange Winter" has ventured upon
an entirely new field of literature in
1.-the Soul of the Bishop" which is
issued by J. Selwin TAFT & Sons, OF
New York. This book is in marked
contrast with Boobies Baby"
which established the authors repu-
tation, but thatit bids fair to receive
as hearty welcome may be assumed
from the fact that the first EDITION
was exhausted on the date of publ
cation. "The Soul of the Bishop" is
in somewhat the same vein as
Robert Elsmere" and "John Ward
Preacher" but, like the authors
portrait in the frontispiece, it has a
strength and individuality peculiar
ly its own.

JULIUS CESAR.
A Plot to Act Him is just Discover ed
in Time.
To play or not to play
That is the question:


To play or not to play
That is the question:
Whether it's better on the stage to suffer.
Pour out great Shakespeare's words in ira gic
tones,
Or quietly attend TO ores own business
And let ones friends alone.
1t was such soliloQuy as this that
p. H. L. was cogitating about when
G. r. b. decided that, as for himself
he wouldn't play anything in Shake
speare except Caesars Ghost and he
was too much of Lord High EXecu-
toner for that. His business was to
make ghosts, not to play them. p. L.
bethOught' himself that A. II. f.
would make good Cesar because he
was ambitious, but f. declined, and
then happy thought striking him
he said he'd get the coroner to play
the ghost and have Chief 3. play
Caesar.
As for the part of Brutus it seemed
to p. L. that J. =. b. would make a
noble Roman and thatJ. w. A. would
make an artful CassiuS. Casca could
be taken by w. a. B. and Cicero by
r. b. G. For the part Of Anthony he
decided to import Marion b. who
likes to speechity, and Mr.. r. could
be the shoemaker in the mob.
Such was the day dream of p. II. L..
but one thing he forgot, and that was
to engage the active sympathies of the
ladies composing the West End Cos
sip Club, or else have the affair come
off under the auspices of the North
Winston Chatterers' Society.
Here the writer held his breath for
further announcements.

WINSTON TOBACCO MARK
The Tobacco Jourr ais Review for tn
Week Ending December 9th

Breaks have been slightly smaller
the past week owing to the cold aud
dry condition of the weather. How
ever for most OF the time sales were
good and consisted of the stock dir
ect from the wagons. Planters are
nearly through with farm work and
are anxious TO market their crops and
are doing so as fast as the weather
will permit.
All stock sold at good prices and the
bidding was quite active. There is Il
strong demand for working tobaccos
and these are taken more freely than
any other grade. Manufacturers are
now buying up their supplies for next
seasons work.
Business in manufactured stock
remains good and collections are quite
satisfactory.
