Presuming that circumstances allow
you to answer this question in the
affirmative, we think it will be hardly
necessary to adduce arguments in sup
port of the advice rendered. Four
fifths of our customers belong to the
fair sex; they are our sheet anchor; our
mainstay; without them our store

sHARPsBURG ROLLER MILLS.
One Of the Best in the State
Capacity rs Barrels Per
Day.

Inc SnarpsDurg mining company
has over-hauled its machinery, put
ting in new parts where needed and
now this mill has no superior.
The system adopted by this compa-
NY is accepted by all millers Of any note
as the best for producing the highest
grades and yielding the most flour.
The proprietor of these mills, Mr.. M.
V. Bostain, is a practical miller and
has had an experience in milling of
more than rs years. 1t was not his
object in becoming miller to simply
understand the routine mill work, but
he made study and mastered the
theory of how to produce the most and
the best at the least expense.
That he has beer successful in
attaining what was most beneficial
is evidenced by the business ne has
enjoyed during a long period of years.
The mills at Carlisle were established
by him and their productions have
been in constant competition with the
most famous mills of the country, and
yet they are second to none of them.
AT Sharpsburg he has profited by his
experience in the Carlisle mills and in
the over-hauling has given the people
and the trade the benefit. These
mills are now running on full time
and are supplying the local trade and
doing large jobbing business. Their
first grade of flour, "rhe Crystal"
makes beautiful cake and its rising
qualities in bread are perfect. Per-
sons who have tried it want no other,
while their second grade is equal to
many of the first grades of other mills.
These high qualities are obtained by
several reasons, one of which is having
the proper machinery, another by the
use of the highest grade wheat and
another is by having miller with
both practical and theoretical attain
ments who can bring about the de-
sired results.
A paying trade has been worked up
and Mr.. Bostain expects to be able to
dispose of the entire production of the
mill, rs barrels per day, the year
round. Wholesale dealers are reques-
ted to send for samples and prices.
When his grades have been once tried
they are ever afterward asked for.
In addition to the flour they also are
producers of bran and ship-stuff, and
in the price of both flour and feed no
other mills have any edge on them.
Located, as they are, away from high
taxes and exorbitant rents they pro-
duce at very close figure and hence
their prices delivered are as favorable
as that of any other mills and at the
same time it gives flour which is
satisfactory.

Gov. Matthews at Last Comes
Out Under the Free Silver
Flag.

Birmingham, Ala, June 4.-The
Birmingham State Herald to-day
published letter from Claude Mat
thews, Governor of Indiana, in reply
to one written by j. A. Rountree, edi-
tor Of that paper, to the Indiana execu-
tive. In this letter Gov. Matthews
makes bid for the support of the
Alabama delegates to the National
Convention, and says:
"The indications now that our State
Convention vii! be by alsrge msjori-
ty in the control of the silver senii-
ment, and that delegation instructed
fol silver will be sent to Chicago.
The feeling with us here is that strong,
positive and clear resolutions shou Id
be adopted free from evasion of doubt
full construction. Personally, I favor
resolution denunciatory of the con-
tinuance of the single gold standard,
believing that it retards the return of
prosperity and will continue to be
destructive and injurious to the best
interests ofsthe American people and
and calling for the coinage and use of
both gold and silver on equal terms as
standard money and demanding the
early and independent restoration of
silver to its old and rightful place in
the coinage of the country.
"With such platform we will car
ry Indiana by the largest majority
ever given to a presidential candidate.
To make doubtful declaration even
with western candidate or adopt
gold platform means defeat. Seldom
has grander opportunity been of
fered to political party, and | trust
we may be wise enough to grasp it.
Should nay views upon this subject
accord with those of the delegates of
Alabama 1 would ask for their favor
able consideration at Chicago.
