To MY Patrons,

Aug. 10, ISoo.-Afrer the most
pleasant relations, extending over
quarter of century. with the
patrons of the ..I.acoste Blacksmith
Shop" I have decided to close
that business on the first day of
all nv time to the management Of
my store, whose rapidly increasing
trade demands my undivided at
tenti0n.
Before closing the old black
smith shop, however. l desire to-
thank most sincerely those who
have favored ne with their patron
age. With pardonab!e pride 1 will
refer to the splendid record of the
:Lacos.e Black smith Shop" estab-
!ished, as 1t was, when our now
hourishing city was mere hamlet.
In those days. the pillow and the
harrow were practically the only
farming nipple, nents used, but now
it IS different. The progressive
farmer must take advantage of the
lates, improved labor saving in
ventions, and with a view OF adapt
ing myself to the changed condl-
tons, l have fitted up and equipped
a thoroughly nlp to 6afe' store where
the farmer can get everything ne
cessary TO work :he soil
l have in addition to this depart,
ment all kinds of B/04RsWiN .Sut-
lltrs, Ho,H7ea,,$, .Bu$g1rs, WaSons,
PIPES amt PIPE EIt-nyy. EeaAr
Missed Pants. etc.
Again thanking those who have
SO generously patr onized me in the
past, l hope to have a COnt.nuan &c
of their valued patronage in the
future. LEOPOLD I-ALOSIE.

doubt that the efforts of those en-
gagged in this great work will be
crowned with success.

NO T MUCH Nv THE NAME. |
Hon. G. X. Breckenridge, OF
Pine Bluff, Ark, gold Democrat
an ex-minister to Russia, was inter-
viewed by Picayune reporter the
other day on the question Of trusts.
After stating that the anti trust law
had proven failure in Arkansas
the distinguished gentleman gave
expression to- the following:
.'Nine men on, of speak of trusts
when they not actually trusts all.
The term trust is badly defined in the
average mind. Most of the so-cailcd trusts
are only large corporations Our people arc
making thrusts and strikes at different in
furious combinations, but many of them
only under the ordinary laws and efforts of
we'll directed capital: and We have not dis
covered which arc good and which are bad"
Mr.. Breckenridge is evidently one
Of those gentlemen who believe that
trusts are not all bad. People who
wish to see the vast agsregations of
capital wiped out of existence are
| not likely to take much stock in
the talk of the Arkansas gentleman
The average citizen may not be
able to explain the difference be-
tween "trusts and large corpora
tons" but he has sense enough to
! know that when one commodity is
moneyed men the price OF that com
modify goes up. Whether it is
! called large corporation or trust
cuts no figure in the case. Techni-
not be permitted to enter into the
! solution of this question. Ii ma y
! suit the purpose OF the friends OF
! the trusts TO confuse matters BY
difference that exists between trust
and a large corporation, but the
people have had enough Of tina,
kind Of stuff.
| Owing to the recent Formation OF
the ice and beef trusts the laborins
people will have to pay two or three
cents more per pound for me al
while American meat is selling in
two cents pound lower than here.
1t is ardly possible that those who
will be forced to pay such exhorbl-
tant prices for beef will stop. to dis
infamous combine trust or large
corportion.
We learn from the New York
Journal that salt, which before the
eighty-three cents barrel, now
costs $3.50. People who have to
bear the increase in the price OF
this Indispensable article viii no,
trust or large corporation. No,
no, much.
The same New York paper is au-
| thOrity for the statement that an in
crease OF 90 per cent on carpets
as been the result of the organiza-
ton of the carpet trust. The Amer
lean workman who will have 20
stand this ubiquitous increase will
not be disposed to listen to the in
,erminable rot of the trust lawyers
and the capitalistic press about the
cons,itutionality of antitrust laws.
All the mills in New England
having been bought by a trust,
print cloths are three quarters of a
cent higher this year than last. The
fellow who will have to Clothe a

Fruit. Replace Flower..

Fruits are replacing flowers as deco
rations for the table, and for this pur-
pose are used not fruit bought by the
pound, but fruit on it's branches. These
branches are entwined in the hanging
lamps, forming sort of cradle whence
hang fresh currants, shining cherries,
plums with the bloom on them, golden
apr.,cots, etc. On the table, in little fiat
glass dishes shaped like leaves, are ar
ranged cherries, currants and other
fruit in season. These cut glass dishes
are made in very practical form, with
second compartment in which are
placed powdered sugar and a little
spoon. There may be four or six OF
them, of fairly large size, or else little
ones may be chosen, in which case there
should be one to each guest. New and
ingenious ideas for laying the tables
are being continually introduced. Thus
beside the plates are placed small ores.
cent-shaped plates for salad, and some.
times delicate little silver knives and
forks, used only for this purpose-as
in the case of fish knives-are added

A summer Dainty.

The question of what to serve for
dessert in summer was nicely answered
by leading caterer recently, who,
when asked for the recipe, gave the fol-
lowing for delicious frappe: "It was
not hard to d." he said. with little
thought anyone could accomplish it.
Choose sound fruits, say pineapple,
an orange, Malaga grapes, Strawberries,
peach, or some small berries, dead
ripe. Those which can be peeled, have
the skins removed, and all are seeded.
They are then cut into very small
pieces, dice or shreds, and mixed all
together. Sweetened water is poured
over them, and, if desired, a winglassful
of liquor of some sort. The mass il
frozen to frappe consistency. AS the
ice is fitted into each individual glass a
spoonful of whipped cream is dashed
over it, after which it must be served
promptly."-st. LOWS Globe-Democrat.
