Charles E. Osgood, Of Boston, the
owner Of the largest and most sue
cessful furniture business in New
England, If not in the country. was
one of the few large buyers among
furniture dealers during the hard
| times of last year, who did q great
business, always paying cash, NOV
ing on as If times were good. while
rival concerns were going to pieces
right and left all about. His credit
from Michigan to Maine became SO
conspicuously E'solidn that he was
one of the most talkedo young men
IN commercial circles.
With limited means, but we'll
bred, full of character, straightfor-
ward, and we'll educated, he started
IN business only a few years ago in a
very moderate way III a little. store
on fremont street IN Boston. The
city began to know him quickly, His
business rapidly assumed big pro
portions. A newspaper one day in
terviewed him in the column OF
Men worth knowing. .

Mr.. Osgood replied very shortly;
when in doubt, buy the best goods. :"
He is known everywhere to-day

Work told on Mr.. Osgood's health,
With Characteristic judgment he put
his reliance upon natures best rer3-

best of medical treatment was at his
disposal; there certainly was no ply
stefan that a man III his position
could not employ. He got the right
advice, and followed it. To-day he
is perfectly well, good-tempered. ag-
gressive and energetic to the last
degree.

Sept. %, 1897 Nh. Osgood said.

WALTER LETTER.
A Condensed Chr0nicling of the
Happenings of a Week.

Walter, N. C., Nov. i, ~.
DEAR ARGUS;-There r only
two mon tbs left of this year
How swiftly time speeds away:
and soon,ah soon, the children OF
to-day will be the men and wo.
men of our land. How important
then. it is. to properly train
them, in order that they may be
adequate to the great response
bilitles which await them.
The farmers are busy gather
ing corn, and almost every night
there is a t'shucking" some
where. But like every thing else,
the corn stockings" have
changed. While they are equally
as we'll attended as formerly. they
lack the features which in days
past characterized them. When
We were a boy, and that has not
been half a century, we remem-
Der how a darkey would walk the
corn pile and 'sgive out" a "hol-
ler," while the rest would make
the "welkin ring" when they
Joined in. And. after finishing
the corn they would gather the
land lord on their shoulders, and
march around the house, con-
tinuing their 'holler," and then a
general good time would follow;
drinking 'simmon' beer, eating
roast potatoes, dancing etc, while
those who wanted it had some
thing stronger than beer, but
there was little drunkenness.
But those days have past and
given place to the march of
progress, and there is little left
now to remind one Of the good
old days, of long ago.
Mr.. Jim Hirkman, of Smith
field. was visiting Mr.. H, T.
Jones family last week.
Miss Agnes Gurley was visit
ing at Oak Glen on Sunday even
ing.
Mrs. Ophelia Crawford spent
last week with her daughter Mrs.
A. L. Ormond at Greenleaf.
Rev. A, L Ormond filled his
appointment at Pine Forest on
Sunday last, and went from there
to conduct the funeral services of
Mrs. Henry Vail, near Pikeville.
Miss Minnie Yelverton and
brother bred, were visiting their
sister Mrs. G. L. Becton last
week.
Misses Lula Neal, and aLalla
Smith are visiting friends and
relatives in your city.
Mrs. A. L. Sasser has returned
from a visit to her daughter,
Mrs. DR.. Jordan, at Hookertou N.
G..
Mr. Gideon Woodland, of Will
son, was visiting in our com
munity last week, We were glad
to see him.
Mr.. Willie Hines has been
nursing a lame foot for several
days, but is improving. we ar
glad to know.
Mrs Ed Gurley has been very
sick at the home of her parents
the past week, but is some bet
ter. we are glad to learn.
The weather lately has been
rough on all who have cotton
and peas not picked. But it is
fine on those who contemplate
putting in grain, Or have already
done SO. We hope there will be
more grain and hay and less cot
ton,

HE WILL PLEAD GUILTY.

Robert Baker, the Racine Expressman
Charged With Having Too Many Wives.
A Kenosha paper is authority for the
statement that Robert Baker, the Ra-
cine bigamist, who has been chief in
the culinary department of the Jail for
some time, has made an application to
plead guilty to the charge. The case
will probably come up in a few days.
It is said that the Racine friends of the
expressman will, after he is sentenced,
make an effort to secure his pardon, as
they do not believe his intentions were
to commit crime. His first wife is
insane, and there is no hope of her re-
covering her mental faculties, and
Baker imagined that she was legally
dead to him. Racine News.
