The church was packed with an au-
dlence eager to witness the beautiful
ceremony. The decorations were
elaborate and handsome. Festoons
OF evergreens hung gracefully from the
pulpit far down the sides of the church,
and ferns, palms and flowers covered
the rostrum. The front of the pulpit
was banked with branches Of beautiful
autumn foliage and many modest little
tapers peeped out with their pretty lit
tie lights, while an archway of candle
lights shone across the pulpit all set
on supports of evergreens. In the right
aisle near the altar was a pure white
column bearing in settings of evergreens
in white flowers the large Initial letter
"W", and in the left aisle near the al
tar in the same order was the initial
letter "S." The seats reserved for the
family were tied off with white ribbon.
Soft mellow lights made the scene
beautiful indeed.

door Miss Foy Allen sang 30, Promise
Me-" Then with Miss Annie Biggs
at the organ amid the sweet strains OF
the Bridal Chorus, the party entered
as follows:
The ushers, DR.. A. G. Liyermon,

bearer. Then came the bride leaning
on the arm OF her brother, Mr.. j. N.
Savage.

ton, as best man. Standing at the

impressive ceremony united the happy

the train for Norfolk.
They will visit Baltimore, Washing
ton, New York and other places and

these Same Men

Are again in Scotland Neck
and as they walk they talk
again. Some time ago when
they were here they were in
conversation about the bust
ness done at a certain ia
miliar stand, and they were
impressed with the crowds
that traded there. This
time they are struck by some
new stores and other i'm
proyements, and this is
about the way they talk
now:
A to -''Doesn't it look
like those handsome new
stores would give the occu-
pants Of them a great adj
vantage over. other business
houses ?"
B to A-''Well, yes, at first
it would seem SO, but when
You think of it closely it ap-
pears in quite another light. "
A to B-"Why, | thought
everybody likes to go to new
places"
B to A-S'Thatis true. But
when it comes to spending
money most people go where
they think they can get the
best bargains, and old GUS
toners stick to old dealers,
unless they find something
wrong in the business y
A to B-"Well, | believe
YOU are right about it, and
that accounts for the fact
that you see the same big
crowds going and coming at
that same old familiar place.
Yes, I'm sure Of it, and the
smiles that play across their
countenances tell plai nly
that they are satisfied with
their bargains. They are
still crowding there, and
when we come to Scotland
Neck again we shall doubt
less find it just as we found
1t some time ago and just as
We find it now"

A CRUSADE OF CALUMNY.
Sumner Herald.


The brutal post-election assaults OF
the Republican press ON Mr.. Bryan
and those who followed his banner, is,
in one respect at least. mournful ev-
idence Of the decadence of American
manhood. Having accepted the arbi-
trament of the ballot, we should be &C
corded the "honors of war;" instead of
being persistently reviled. When
brave men sheath the sword the quar-.
rel's done; to assault an opponent who
is hors du combat bespeaks the coward.
The dunghill rooster and the average
Mckinley editor are the only bipedal
animals on earth contemplate
enough to insult fallen foe.
During the campaign we expected
to be belittled and belied by the oppo-
sition-to be deluged with the NAL
odor of polemical polecats-and were
not disappointed; but what object
they have in continuing this crusade
of calumny after capturing the spoils,
is beyond our comprehension. Con-
spicuous among the blatant jacks now
vigorously Haunting their cowardly
heels in the wounded lions face is
that contemplate anglomaniac who
is making futile effort to fill the edi-
torial toga once worn by the mighty
Greeley. Speaking of the Bryan cam.
paign, the New York 7ribune-one of

gravity:

REWARD OF MERIT.
A New Catarrh Cure Secures National
Popularity in Less Than One Year.


Throughout a great nation Of eighty
million 1t is desperate struggle to
secure even recognition for a new
article to say nothing of achieving pop
ular favor, and yet within one year Stu
arts Catarrh Tablets the new cstarrh
cure, has met with such success that
today it can be found in every drug store
throughout the United States and Canada
To be sure, a large amount OF adverts-
ing was necessary in the first instance
to bring the remedy TO the attention OF
the public but every one familiar with
the subject knows that advertising alone
never made any article permanently sue
cessful. It must have in addition abso-
lutte, undeniable merit. and this the new
catarrh cure certainly possesses in a
marked degree.
Physicians, who formerly depended
upon inhalers, sprays and local washes
or ointments now use Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets because, as one of the most prom
inent stated, these tablets contain in
pleasant, CONVENIENT form all the really
efficient catarrh remedies, such as red
gum, Guaacol, Eucalyptol. and Sanguin-
aria.
They contain no cocaine nor opiate. and
are given to little children with entire
safety and benefit.
DR.. J. J. Reitiger, of Covington, KY,
says: 1 suffered from catarrh in my
head and throat every fail, with stoppage
of the nose and irritation in the throat
affecting my voice and often extending
to the stomach, causing catarrh of the
stomach. / bought a fifty cent package
Of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets at my drug
gists, carried them in my pocket and
used them faithfully, and the way in
which they cleared my head and throat
was certainly remarkable. I had no ca
tarrh last winter and spring and con-
slider myself entirely free from any
catarrhal trouble.
Mrs. Jerome Ellison. of Wheeling, W.
Va, writes: I suffered from catarrh
nearly my whole life and last winter my
two children also suffered from catarrhal
colds and sore throat so much they were
out of school a large portion Of the
winter. My brother who was cured Of
catarrhal deafness by using Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets urged me TO try them so
much that I did so and am truly thank
full for what they have done for myself
of the tablets in the house and at the
first appearance of cold or sore throat
we nip it in the bud and catarrh is no
longer a household aff1iction with US
Full sized packages Of Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets are sold for fifty cents at all
druggists
