Sandy Grove News.

One day last week two negroes.
who were getting cut shingles in
Pudding Swamp, near Johnsons cross
ing, met a peddler and pretended to
buy some Of his wares. The pedler
opened his pack and begun showing
his goods, when one Of the negroes
slipped a razor and concealed it in his
clothing. The peddler seeing him de-
manded the razor or pay for It. The
negroes became indignant and cursed
and threatened violence to the peddler.
The peddler finding himselfin danger
Of bodily harm blew whistle and
two other peddlers who were near by
responded to the alarm. AS SOON as
his fellow peddlers come up he informs
them OF the difficulty and where the
razor is. One ofthem stepped up to
the darkey that had the razor and
snatched the razor from him. This
enraged the darkey and be picked
up a stick. One Of the peddlers drew a
pistol and at the sight Of this the
negroes broke and run. A little later
one of the darkies procured a shot gun
and followed the peddlers about a
mile, but the peddlers went on without
being over taken.

County Alliance Meeting.

The Claren don county alliance met
in the court house last Friday. The
attendance was good, about forty
delegates representing the various
sub alliances were present. The re-
ports show that the alliance in this
county is holding its own. After
transacting the regular quarterly bust
ness, Hon. J. Z. Pettiglew OF Florence
was introduced. He spoke on alliance
matters entirely. His speech Was full
OF good sound doctrine and advice
There was nothing in his speech but
what the public could haye heard
and we think his address would have
been well received by those who are
not members of the order us his re-
marks We're full OF material fol
thought.
Resolutions were adopted endorsing
the calling OF an early convention OF
Reformers. and pledging to Governor
Tillman support in his fight for 4
saat in the United States Senate.

There is more catarrh in this Sec

few years was supposed to be incura-
bile. Fora great many years doctors
pronounced it q local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local rem
edies pronounced it incurable. Science
has proved catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease and therefore requires

Simple and characteristic outdoor
decorations make Japanese city or
village beautiful at the New Year
season. One of the most common is the
straw rope. A rope with many wisps
of straw and strips of white paper
hanging therefrom, and other objects,
such as seaweeds, ferns, lemon
(orange?), a red lobster shell, dried per-
simmons, charcoal, and dried sardines
attached thereto, will be stretched
either between the pine trees or above
the doorway. Each of the articles just
mentioned represents an idea-pine,
bamboo, seaweeds and ferns, being
evergreens, are emblems of constancy;

legend often related, are supposed to
exclude evil agencies; 1.-The lobster by

Decline n, Pre,tv cns,or

The practice of having ladies' call
ing day upon the second day of the
year is going out of fashion, if indeed
it has not already gone. Some years
ago the fair sex had literally the right
of way in every direction, and it was
by tolerence alone that the sterner sex
was enabled to travel by car or stage.
1t is pity that ladies day" has de-
clined, for there was perfect pano-
rama of beauty to be seen when the
fair creatures, cardcases in hand and
dressed in their handsomest and most
becoming costumes, and generally
travelling in groups of two, three and
four, abounded everywhere. The air
was filed with their pleasant small
talk, and they looked very animated
and interesting Selected.

when she was still the mucu-sought
daughter of the rich banker Casanova.
He had second wife and a little girl
by this second marriage. Do you re-
member her complete ruin? 1t was
followed by his death. His wife be-
came an invalid from sorrow, and Miss
Casanova, left with two helpless peo-
pie on her hands, sought in vain for
paying work. Florence attracted her,
and she decided to try place where
no one knew of her former life. She
began at the very beginning, living a
life of sacrifice, but soon reaching a
better position by her industry and in
telligence. The mother died, blessing
the faithful heart, sure that the deli
cate child left in her sisters care would
be safe. Yes, she has been safe, and 1
shall spare no trouble to cure her."
And these are the women l wanted
to send away!"
thanked the doctor, and begged
him to let me know if could do any,
thing for my dodgers. Then, under a
sudden impulse, confessed to the doc
tor my heartlessness, and the story of
the ambulance, and how l had deeply
regretted my behavior. Would Miss
Casanova ever forgive me?
! The doctor looked almost severe. and
rising he said: TRY and make amends
by leaving the two ladies from this
| time unmolested."
He said good-by without much cor
diality.
The next day bouquet was brought,
of beautifully fresh cut-roses. It was
intended for my friends down stairs,

An Anecdote of the olden Time.

In the time of Charles / of England a
court jester was cleverly outwitted by
nobleman, who had, according to the
custom of the day, presented the jester
with sum of money.
On New Years morning the jester
came into the presence of the noble
man, and received, as he expected, a
number of gold pieces. He thought he
had not been given enough, SO he
tossed them in his hand, muttering
that they were light. The nobleman
saw this, and said: ''Prithee, Archy,
let me see them again; and, by the
way, there is one of them l would be
loath to part with
Naturally enough, perhaps, Archy
thought more coins were to be added
to his store, SO he willingly returned
them to his lordship. But the noble.
man put them into his pocket. saying,
Il once gave my money into the hands
of a fool who hadn't the wit to keer
it. "-Philadelphia Record.

The Scottish Hosmanv.

A satisfactory explanation of the
term ''hogmany," used by the Scots to
designate the last day of the old year,
has never yet been given, but there are
two suggestions which are quite plaus-
IDLE. One is that the term ''hogmany"
is derived from ''hogenot" or "hogg
night" the Scandinavian name for the
night preceding the feast of yule, when
animals were sacrificed, the word
'.hogg" meaning to kill. The other de-
rivation is from the French, ''au que
menez, ITO the mistletoc CO." refer
ring to the Druids' custom on New
Years eve of collecting the mistletoc
from the oaks. and after corsecrating
it distributing it among the people of
the Gauls. by whom it was priced be-
cause of the many virtues ascribed to
it.-Exchangc.

No Substitutes

For Royal Baking Powder. The "Royai'
is shown by all tests official scientific, and prac-
tical stronger, purer, and better in every way
than all other Baking Powders. It's superiority
is privately acknowledged by other manuac-
turers, and we'll known by all dealers.
If some grocers try to sell another baking
powder in place of the "Royal," it is because Of
the greater profit. This of itself is good evidence
ofthe superiority of the "Royal." To give greater
profit the other must be lower cost powder, and
to cost less it be made with cheaper and
inferior materials, and thus though selling for the
same give less value to the consumer
