become the time, and ours are becoming
immensely popular. Approval treads on
the heel of merit, and in Augusta you hear
nothing but praise for our sack suits. It's
odd, but one must be sacked to avoid fall
ing out with fashion. Come to US and we'll
sack you to the very top of admiration.
Our sacks are made up of cashmere, chevi-
OTIS, worsteds, ETC., and in fact of all the
correct materials for this seasons wear.
Pay your debt to fashion and the season by
selecting your Spring suit from our stock
of clothing, which is unequalled in style,
material, makeup, durability and reason
ableness in price.

Perpetual Thunder and Lightning.

The phenomenon known as light
ming, followed by a rolling, reverberat-
ing report. recognized as thunder. is
common 10 a wide zone of the earth,
but it is not generally known chat
there are localities where the vivid
flashes and the deafening peals are
incessant. The most notable Of these
continuous lightning districts is on the
eastern coast of the island of San
Domingo. a leading member Of the
group of the West Indies 1t is not
meant that the lightning is here con
tinuouS the year round, but that, with
the commencement Of the rainy Sea
son, comes this Zig7ag feature of il
iumi ma ton which is then continuous
day and night fer weeks. The storm
centre is not continuously local, but
shifts over a considerable area, and,
as thunder is seldom heard over
greater distance than eight miles. and
the lightning in the night will illum-
mate 80 as 10 be seen thirty miles,
there may be days in some localities
where the twinkle on the sky is in a
continuous succession while the rolling
reports are absent. Then again come
days and nights when the electric ar
tlIery is piercing in its detonations;
and especially is this the case when
two separate local cloud centres join.

sometimes occurs. a third participant
appears 10 add to the elemental war
fare. Then there is blazing sky with
binding vividness and stunning peals
that seem TO pin the listener to the
earth. Long before the echoes can die
away come others, until the auricular
mechanism seems hammered into
chaos. s.-Pittsburg Dispatch.
