A Remarkable Fact.

One OF the most remarkable historical
facts that ever transpired in the worlds
history is the complete paciication that
has taken place between the North and
South, and the complete eradication of
all sectional feeling from among the peo-
pie of this country. Did we not know it
to be true, it would be incredible that
this country is the home of thousands of
veterans who were engaged in inferno
cine war, the greatest war of modern
times; war i'm which section was array
ed against section; war of freedom
against slavery; war that cost thous-
ands of millions of treasure and hun
dreds of thousands of lives. And now
the entire nation is united in spirit OF
patriotism and fraternity such as may
not elsewhere be found on earth; past
enmities are obliterated and, if not for
gotten, only remembered to cement more
firmly existing ties of amity and friend
ship.
This is indeed wonderful spectacle,
the like of which the world never before
witnessed and which could occur no
where else except in this land.
Should other nations count upon there
being any discussions or divisions among
the people of the United States as re-
suit of the rebellion, they may as well be
at once undeceived The unanimity
with which the national legislature,
without dissenting voice, invested
President Mckinley with the extraordi-
nary power of expanding the enormous
sum of S50,O00,0O0 in providing for the
the national defense, is but an earnest
of the spirit that pervades the entire ma
ton. War is a terrible thing and should
only come as last resort for the preser-
walton of national honor; but should the
government be forced into a war with
Spain, or, for that matter, with any other
nation, both North and South will go
forth to battle under the same glorious
banner: descendants of the blue and the
gray will touch elbows on the same
march to victory, and, if need be, even
the gray haired veterans of both armies,
federal and confederate, will rally to
their country's call, not as enemies, but
as friends bivouacking on the same tent
ed field, as comrades drinking from the
same canteen.

MUSLIN
UNDERWEAR.

The special Muslin Under
wear sales now going on will
give you an opportunity for COM
parison-especially if you visited
our recent sale and examined the
snow white piles that were
gathered for that occasion. Our
present assortment was never
better and that's why we well
come comparisons with any
stock at regular every day prices
for we firmly believe that our
present stock is twice as large
as any other in the county and
we also believe that we sell twice
as many muslin undergarments
as any other store in this county.
This is strong talk, we know,
but we believe we can prove
every word in this statement;
then too, the muslin undergar-
ments offered here differ froma
that sold by other stores; differs
in the fashions, it's newer, fresher
and brighter. There's just as
much difference IN muslin under
wear these days as in any other
line of garments, and we see to
| it, in fact take special pains to
secure the best up-to-date styles
that the manufacturers can pro-
duce. That's why this stock of
ours contains styles and materials
that are not found IN ordinary
stocks, and as for values, we
are perfectly willing that you
should be the Judge. Come in
and let our salespeople show
you our line of garments, ex-
anime the materials the work.
manship and the styles; that's
what counts in these days of
close competition.
We take pleasure in saying
that our Muslin Underwear is
not made in city sweat shops.
1t is all made in small New

| pie live as we do here.
