SHE WAS MORTIFIED.
(Raleigh Times.l

An old lady from the country, who
was in town on Saturday, coniided to
a friend that she thought it was per-
fectly awful the way Raleigh men did
their wives. When questioned as TO
her reason for such an opinion, she
said that up by the capital there was a
big brick house with "Woman's Ex-
change" on the sign in front. Not
knowing what it meant, she got gen.
tleman who was passing to tell her,
and he said when Raleigh men got tired
of their wives, they went up there and
exchanged them.

lsaid:
"On the stage curtain in the Academy
of Music is painting called: Ihe
Landing of Sir Walter Raleigh on Roa-
noke Island =,
''The picture is bad enough, but the
name is much worse. 1t tells an un-
truth. AS most persons know, Sir wal
ter Raleigh never came within o'ooO
miles of Roanoke Island. a.
II heard little girl, last Saturday al
the matinee, reading the myth to d
younger friend, and | thought it a pity
that she should be so badly taught.
Suppose the owners of the Academy
call the picture: THE Landing of ANA
das and Barlowe;' or they might use the
names of any other two heroes who came
to our shores in the ships, and at the
expense of Sir Walter"
