Of them, no doubt, thoroughly convinced
that for variety and impressiveness OF

beings who live here the years through,
no one exactly knows-very likely va
riety OF opinion. But the mystery of

template Us is to wonder what on earth
we do here in the winter. Do? We'd

North Ellsworth correspondent
writes. Autumn seems to have stolen
into N. footsteps OF summer here, with
out even q warning frost. Already the
NAPLES have denned their autumn coat OF
crimson and orange, and many Of the
otter .rees sre putting on their more
seMb-e dresa G brown. This is noticed
especially in the alders OF the low lands
while the cherry and apple trees, which
usually retain their verdure until late in
October, are showing brown and withered
leaves. Although farmers declare there
has been no frost, nature shows every
evidence that there has been. The theory
prevalent among the farmers here is that
this Is due to the continued drought, but
1t may be caused by the fog, of which We
have lac SO much this season."

Two Pointed Questions Answered.

Two Pointed Questions Answered.
What is the use of making a bet
ter article than your competitor if
you can get better price for it.
Ans--As there is no difference In
the price the public will buy only the
better, SO that while our profits may
be smaller on single sale they will
be much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to
know your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prompt
ly before the public both are certain
to be tried and the public will very
quickly pass judgement on them and
use only the better one.

Annual Report OF the Ladles' Benev-
OIenf Aid Society.

OASuI AA1 SOCAGGys
This society has received in dues
$84 80, and in donations $46.35;
to which is added $22.35 carried
over from last year-making a to-
tai of $153.5O. OF this there has
been expended $111.5O Cor grocer
les, wood, medicine, nursing the
sick, and car fares. This leaves
US a balance of $42, with which to
begin the year 1899. Besides the
money collected, $85 worth. of
clothing and 500 worth of provis-
ions have been collected and dis
tributed.
Reader, perhaps you think that,
because you have been called upon
for private charity, this society
amounts to nothing; but if you
will take into consideration that
fewer than 10 women have gather
ed up this money by small bits,
and visited the families to whom
it went, you will realize that they
have added quite bit of work to
their every day duties.
Our president, Mrs A. G. Cruce,
certainly deserves commendation
for her diligent devotion to this
cause. Besides being always in
her place as president, she has
done much visiting and has given
much individual help. In fact, she
has been known to visit the sick
who needed assistance when she
should have been in bed herself.
Mother Robinson, our treasurer,
also deserves a warm place in our
affections. She has paid all bills,
faithfully keeping the accounts,
and was always in her place.
though she is an aged lady with
an invalid husband to whom she
must give a large share of atten-
ton.
Mrs. j. G. Thompson and Mrs.
j. w. Golledge also should be
mentioned, as they, like faithful
sentinels, have stood at their posts
through heat and cold.
Others have rendered US valua-
bic aid by collecting and soliciting.
In winding up the years work
we have made the effort, and
trust a successful one, to bring
happiness to many homes in our
town today with Christmas offer
ings. And now the play is done,
the curtain Drops" and 1898 will
soon have gone from us forever
its record of good and bad being
sealed for eternity.
Are you a Christian9 If so, be
true to Christian principles. Lay
aside life's petty cares sufficiently
to join hands with us in a good
cause. Make no excuses. Put your
money and influence on the side of
truth and right, thus making a
record for 1899 that you will not
be ashamed to meet in the judg-
ment. The SECRETARY.

ST. AGNES ACADEMY.

This institution, opening VIDE
4. doors to all who desire Chris
t;an education, is under the direc-
t;on of the Sisters of mercy and
embraces a course of studies which
tend largely to the advance of
science and popular well being.
The good Sisters need no intro
duction to the people of Ardmore.
All know that having deprived
themselves Of the luxuries of home,
the ties of friendship with all other
enjoyments of this world and hav-
ing with their own pure lips
changed the names by which the
world would recognize them into
those of sacrifice known only to
God. these holy women, who live
the life of angels, here below, do
not make any human motive the
object of their untiring zeal and
self-sacrifcing labor. Hence, as
teachers in the performance of the
exalted duties of their vocation,
they cannot be compared with
those who, though vested too with
similar qualifications and charac-
teristics, do not possess that sub
tie genius which can .emanate only
from those whose lofty aspirations
soar to heights whence flow ideas
most noble and sublime, and to
which all who desire to learn the
secret of elevating their thoughts
and ennobling their affections,
must have recourse. The chief
merit of the Sisters works would
seem to depend on the rare and
chaste beauty of their conceptions,
the richness and grandeur of their
thoughts and the refined elegance
of the terms they employ as a
medium through which they COM
municate those thoughts. Wheth-
er in the education of youth OF
tending the sick in hospitals, the
ennobling sentiment which ami
mates them is ever recognized un-
der the humble veil of the reli-
gious.
In view of these facts, Christian
parents are exhorted and reminded
of the onerous duty imposed or
them, viz: to give their children
when of an age to learn the advan
tage of such an education.
The course of studies taken VI
in the primary, intermediate anC
senior grade departments has beel
proved by a long satisfactory test
The plan of work is eminentl,

the resignation OF Dr. John Hall. the
venerable pastor OF the church. DIR. Hall
was induced 10 withdraw his resignation.
and the withdrawal caused number OF
influential members 10 leave the church.
One OF the conditions made by DR.. Hall
when he withdrew his resignation was,
that he should be given an assistant,
and the congregation has been searching
for one competent to be DR.. Halls sue
cessor upon his permanent retirement.
There have been many applicants, and
much influence has been brought TO bear
for this and that clergyman from all
parts Of the country. But up to a week
ago no one seemed TO be satisfactory.
Since that time majority OF the con-
gregation has turned toward Rev. DR..
Peyton III. Hoge, of Wilmington, n. G.
No call has yet been extended to DR..
Hoge, and none can be until after the
meeting of the presbyters and tho trus-
tees in October. This, however. does not
prevent the discussion of the matter by
the congregation.
DR.. Hall, who is now in Europe, Is
booked to return to this city on Septem-
Der 2ith. 1t has been known for some
weeks that DR.. Hall does not feel able TO
bear the brunt of the duties of pastor of
the church, and in selecting DR.. Hoge rs
assistant, the selection virtually includes
DR.. Halls successor. 1t is said that the
call Of DR.. HOge TO the pulpit will heal
all the trouble caused by DR.. Halls resig-
nation.
