Buy as You Need, Pay as You Go.

This method saves you from parting
with your money after an article is
worn out. when apparently you get nc
return for money just spent. If you
pay as you go you get the return for
your money then and there.
Not only are you benefited, but this
way gives your merchant his money to
| use, and when manufacturer gets
hard up for funds. he is in a position
to buy goods forced on the market.
This is the kind of support given one
firm in our city, and its effect is seen
most plainly in hosiery now arriving
by the case; one case Goo DOZEN mems

the kind that usually sell for 15c, or
two pair for 25c; one case 600 dozen)

three pair for 25c; one case 600 dozen)
children's extra heavy seamless, 10c a
pair, the same kind when bought in a
small way retail at 15c pair, or two
pair for 25c; one case boys double knee
seamless at only 15c pair, the kind
that sell everywhere for 25c.
Another special that deserves meE-
tion is a whole case of ladies' bleached
vests, with ribbon around neck and
arm at the surprising price OF 10 cents
each.

DREW PAY, BUT DID NO WORK

And When Discharged Wanted a Certifi.
cate For Ability and Honesty.
Fancy fellow picking your pocket
and asking for character, said a
business man the other day. "That's
been my experience. I hired a young
man about month ago to solicit orders
for me on commission, with $40 a week
guarantee. AS he turned nothing in
after a fortnight began to suspect that
he was working for another firm and
doing nothing to earn the $40, so I told
him that if no order materialized by
the end of the week he must not expect
to continue in my employ.
81 made inquiries which convinced
me that he was doing what I suspected,
but got no legal proof that he was tax
ing my money on false pretenses. So
when the week was up was forced to
pay him third $40, making $50 in all,
which, I felt sure, he had done little or
nothing to earn. Before doing so I told
him of my suspicious, which was fool
ish, as met only with denials which I
couldn't disprove, although in answer
to the questions of the cross examina-
tion l put him through he made state
ments which knew to be lies.
"In spite of my accusations be SEEM
ed to think that my paying him the
final $40 was acknowledgment that I be-
lieved his denials, and after receiving
the money he asked if I would give a
certificate as to his ability and honesty
in case he found it necessary to call up
On me for one. Ianswered that would
at least sign nothing against him, for
after paying him to no purpose money
I could i'll afford didn't want to make
an enemy of him, but advised him not
to put me to the test. New York Sun.

A Confederate OHice1's Equipment.

| Col. Bob. McEldowney, of the Wet
Eel Democrat, who ''fit, bled and died
Tor Tour years under the Southern
cross, is disgusted with the luxuriou!
equipment now stated to be necessary
to an American officer starting for the
Spanish war. He SAYS:
The Army and Navy Journal pub
iish list of fnecessaries for an officer ir
heidservice which, taken collectively
contains more personal belongings than
could have been found in Lees whole
army the last year of the war.
| We desire to inform this luxurious
editor that we have had some expert
ence in this line of necassaries, while
In the field, and that our tooth-b brush
was the ''chawed" end Of a spicewood
| stick and that we brushed our hair by
racing through the chincapins, some
times from necessity, but voluntarily
not oftener than once week.
We owned our shirt and tnat we
washed bi-monthly in the pellucid wa
ters with our own tender hands, using
tadpoles for soap.
Our regimental tailor made us a su-
perb pair of army pants" out of our
lone banket, and we were as sockless
as Simpson. Our army cowhides were
rolled about our ankles like the grace
full folds of rhinoceros hides. Our mat
tress was the cold bosom of Mother
Earth, and as for mosquito bar, there
was not mosquito in Chickahominy
that dared tackle US. Our campaign
nat was modelled after coffee pot with
the lid down in front, and the only
medicine cheat we needed was tin
box of paste for the seams of our gar
ment, to paralyze intruders from at
tempting to make Typographical sur
vey of our person. But our Bermuda
saber was as bright as Bryan dollar,
as were the guns of our subordinates.
and all our haversacks were loaded
with deep sea saunders called "dor-
hicks, made of unsifted yellow corn
meal, which when taken inwardly had
somewhat rasping and singular but
finally pleasing effect: Upon certain
occasions they were fired at the enemy
from a smooth bore cannon, with such
terrible results as to cause the army
correspondents to telegraph their
that the rebels were using
d new projectile, which ought to be
declared contrary to the articles and
usages of war amongst civilized ma
tions.
And all this is no lie.

GREEN BADGESOF COURAGE.
sashes Worn by Army Surgeons and Thei1
History.

sashes Worn by Army Surgeons and Thei1
History.
A great many people do not know
why army surgeons wear green sashes.
1t is not SO much an insignia of rank as
it is protection to the wearer. Accord
ing to the code of war, surgeons are
never shot or taken prisoners. To delib-
erately shoot a surgeon while he is
wearing his sash is considered viola
tion of the code, punishable by death.
Because of this provision surgeons of
one army never refuse to look after the
wounded of the other army if it is posi-
BILE for them to do so. During the civil
war it was often the case that after a
battle the field hospitals would contain
almost an equal number of men dressed
in blue and gray. The Federal army
had the best surgeons and the best
stores, and a wounded Confederate con-
sidered himself in great luck if he was
removed to Federal hospital to be
cared for by Federal surgeons and ply
sicians.
But in the heat of battle green sash
is not much protection, and surgeons
were often wounded or killed. But this
did not keep the surgeons at the rear
until the battle was over. They were
often found in the thick of the fray,
dressing wounds and sending the wound
ed to the rear. Theirs was perilous as
well as noble duty, and they perform
ed it well.-Omaha World-Herald.

A MODEL WIFE.
She Dons Black In Memory of Her Un-
mOurned Predecessor.

mOurned Predecessor.
He had asked her to be "his'n," and
she had made up her mind that she had
worked out'' long enough anyway. So
she accepted him. She was perfectly
satisfied with her place, but she wanted
to have house of her own. So they
were married
1t wasn't long afterward that she
came back to see her former mistress
about something, and the latter noticed
that she was wearing mourning. Of
course she was sorry for her and was
rather surprised that she made no men
ton of her bereavement. 1t is, indeed,
grievous thing when honeymoon is
cut short.
Finally the former mistress brought
up the subject herself.
"You are in mourning, Maggie" she
suggested.
"Yes," replied Maggie complacent-
ly, and with no show of feeling at ALL
Il fought it was the least could do
fer 'im.''
1t is showing no more than proper
respect OF course. 1 am very sorry. It
must have been great shock.''
"Great shockl'' exclaimed Maggie in
surprise. Then as she grasped the idea
she went on, ooh, he amt dead," with
the accent on chez
You haven't lost your husband?'
Maggie shook her head.
"Then why are you in such deep
mourning?'
"Just to please the poor lad, !" an
swered Maggie. "You see, it's this
way, she went on when she had de-
oided to tell the story. "After we was
married he comes to me an he says,
Maggie, he says, the poor woman niv-
er had anybody to put on mournin fer
her, an dunno that she's been treated

Splendid Crystals In California.

Some time ago John E. Burton of
Lake Geneva, Wis, leased the right to
prospect for crystals in the old Green
Mountain mine, near Mokelumne hill,
in Calaveras county, Cal. He found a
number OF fine specimens, and one of
them is claimed to be the largest group
Or mass of crystals ever found. AS taken
out from the drift where it was uncov-
cred it was II feet inches in circum-
ference. 1t was feet inches long, 8
feet 6 inches wide and feet inches
high. 1t weighed 2,200 pounds. The
mass included one large central crystal
and surrounding group of smaller
ones. From the central one it was esti-
mated that perfect sphere IA inches
in diameter could be cut, while several
others from three to eight inches in
diameter could be obtained from the
mass. Mr.. Burton has found in all
about IL tons of crystals Engineering

Largest Clay Pipe Factory in the orld al
PampIin City.

PampIin City.
The largest tobacco-pipe factory in tn
world is located in Appomattox coun
ty, near Pamplin City, says the Rich
mond Dispatch. This is an interesting
fact and one not generally known, bu
the manner in which the factory be
came located at Appomattox is of ever
greater interest.
1t had been known for many wears
prior to the war between the States
that there existed clay in that county
we'll adapted to the manufacture ol
tobacco pipes, but the industry was
carried ON in the most desultory way
Sometimes negro at odd times would
fashion a few rude pipes and sell them
In the neighborhood generally at the
country store, receiving in exchange
such articles as he coveted most and
were within the reach of the very mod
crate means derived from the sale of
his handiwork.
But at the close of the war the whites
turned their attention to the clay de-
posits. 1t was a necessity, ard not a
matter of choice.
The war had swept every thing away.
The implements with which the pipes
were manufactured were simple and
rude, and it must be confessed that the
articles which they fabricated did not
| bear the closet resemblance to those
turned out by the thousand today.
The pipes were sold by local mer-
chants, who shipped them to whole
sale dealers in Northern cities, who
sold them to retailers throughout the
country.
And now comes the part of the story
that sounds rather romantic, though
it is every word true.
Among the retail dealers who pur
chased lot of these poor mans pipes
was groceryman in little town in
Ohio. He sold them at from 2 to 5
cents o piece and found them very
popular.
Among those who purchased one was
a wealthy citizen of the town, who was
led to do go by less wealthy neigh
Dor who had found them sweet smok-
ers. The capitalist was delighted. He
smoked nothing Use for some time,
and finally inquired of the groceryman
as to where the pipes were made. The
latter could only give the name of the
wholesale dealer from whom he had
purchased them, but from him the
gentleman learned that the pipes were
made from clay bank in the county
of Appomattox in Virginia.
The gentleman saw that the pipes
were OF very rude construction. He
also saw that were proper machinery
used they could be turned out with |
great rapidity and that a profit could
be made at selling them at a penny a
piece. He was growing interested, and |
finally his mind dwelt so much upon |
the subject that he came over to Vir
ginia. and to the little town of Ap
pomattox. He went at once to the
store of the dealer in pipes, and was
not long in finding that the best were
made at bank about eight miles
away, at what is now Pampl1n City.
The rest is soon told. The land was
purchased for small sum buildings
erected, the latest machinery installed
and soon the kilns were smoking.
