COTToN MARKET REVIEW.

What New York Firm Thinks OF the

Tho lint OF the advance In cotton was
reached last Saturday whom January con-
tracts sold at $40 From this there has
been an extreme reaction Of about 70

the recent cotton market has surpassed
anything known for years. The volume

LOVE LAUGHS At LoCKsMITHs.

About q month ago, Mr.. John Rey-
nolds, Of Cowden, II. J., came here in
the employment Of Pee Dee Factory
as an expert to set up its system Of
water works. About two weeks ago,
he met Miss Annie G. Blackwell, of Pee
Dee Village and it turned out to be a
severe case of love at first sight. But
the course of things did not run
smooth; for the stern parent of
Juliet" swore by his bulldog and
double-barrel gun, that Sweet Romeo
was a persona non grata ''in his back
ward" and so without consent of Con-
gress he took unto himself belligerent
rights, and vowed vow that Annie
should be prisoner and John an exile,
until their forbidden infatuation
should end. But not so. Plans thwart-
ed for time, change not the ways Of
human nature, or the hearts of lovers.
They have an affinity for each other.
which defies stern parental commands,
and Knocks at prison walls-and all the
world loves them. So on last Monday
night, when all was still; and the
rising moon had cast its first silyery
beams to add natures romantic touch
to the scene, Annie leaped across the
garden wall and in the arms of tender
friends, was quickly borne to where
her lover with a carriage was in wait

ALL BELIEVERS.
BY Lizzie York Case.


There is no Unbelief!
Whoever plants seed Itneath tie sod
And waits to see it push away the clod,
Trusts he in God.
There is no Unbelief!
Whoever SAYS, when clouds are IN the
sky,
Be patient, heart, light breaketh by
and by,
Truths the most high.
There is no Unbelief!
Whoever sees meath winters field OF
The silent haryests Of the future grow,
Gods power must know.
There is no Unbelief!
Whoever lies down on his couch 10
sleep,
Content to lock each sense in slumber
deep,
Knows God will keep.
There is no Unbelief!
Whoever says tomorrow the unknown,
The future, trusts that power alone
He dare disown.
There is no Unbelief!
The heart that looks on when dear eye
lids close,
And dares to live when life has only
woes,
Gods comfort knows.
There is no Unbelief!
For thus by day and night uncon-
sciously
The heart lives by that faith the lips
deny,
God knoweth why.

LIVER CLOGGlNG.
When Your Stomach Clogs Your Liver
See to Your Digestion.

Not one person in thousand knows
that the cause of biliousness is the
ciogging of the liver by the poisons of
indigestion. Nor that the only proper
cure for it is a tonic to aid the stomach.
But modern medicine declares the
truth of it. And the Shakers have prov
ed it by the wonderful success of their
Shaker Digestive Cordial.
One of the most important uses of
the liver is to arrest and destroy all poi
sons which try to find their way into
the blood. When it's clogged, it can't
do this.
Undigested food ferments and putri-
fies in the stomach, and the poisons
of putrifaction clog and paralyze the
liver, after which they find their way
into the blood.
Here is the true explanation OF all
the distressing disorders and eompii-
cations caused by Indigestion.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is the only
tonic cordial which aids the stomach
in a natural way to digest its food. BY
this means, it cures Indigestion, res
torres the liver, and frees the body from
poison and disease.
Headache, dizziness, bad taste, fever,
flatulence, constipation, loss Of appe-
tite, anaemia, rheumatism, and many
other disorders are relieved and cured
by Shaker Digestive Cordial.
At druggists. Ten cents for a trial
bottle.

OUR HEROES AND OUR FLAGS.
A Beautiful Souvenir for Subscribers
to the News and Observer.

to the News and Observer.
Beginning with Monday, the News
and Observer will offer to its readers
a beautiful souvenir of the Confeder-
acy. 1t is picture which artistically
embodies incidents, together with por-
traits of soldiers who were prominent

Beneath is the inscription, "Our He

equestrian statue of Lee. Grouped
above and about these devices are
beautifully colored illustrations of -four
different flags of the Cnfederacy. The
Lee Camp badge surmounts this central
gruping. Surrunding is a framework
continuing the war pictures OF Presl-
dent Jefferson Davis, Vice-President
Alexander ii. Stevens. and Generals
jackson, Price, Polk, Hardee, j. +. b.
Stuart, Johnston, Kirby Smith, j. II.
Morgan, Ewell, Hampton, Cooper
Longstreet, A. p. Hill, Hold. Braxton
Bragg, and Beauregard.
The whole forms an artistic picture,
which should be treasured by every
Southern family. 1t will serve to ia
miliarize rising generations with the
faces of our heroes and the conquered
banner"
We propose to put this picture, a
copy of which may be seen framed in
the News and Observer Office within
the reach of every one of our subscrib-
ers. You can get it this wise:
