The merchant who wants to do
business must not hide his light I'M
der bushel. He must make himself
known and he must ask for the Gus
tom he desires. This cannot be
done verbally. He must, therefore,
advertise; and he must give as much
thought and attention to his trade
announcements as to any other mat
tiers pertaining to the proper conduct
of his business.
REGULAR board can be had at the
Deiicatessen for 49, Per week.

JUST what effect that the lack of
snow will have on the wheat crop this
year is hard to tell as yet and nearly
every man asked about it has a differ
ent opinion. 1t is hard to see how it
can be otherwise than as an injury to
it.

THERE has been some trouble as
anticipated about the delivery of the
packages addressed to the handsomest
young man and the prettiest girl in
town at the postoffice. Doc. Hall
hasn't had the trouble on account of
the lack of applicants but he has ex-
perienced it on account of the abund-
ance OF riches in that direction.

:. THE Citizens National Bank will
pfobably get organized within the
next two weeks. The gentlemen who
are named as being behind the move
are well and favorably known over the
country and they will at once take
rank with the best banking institu-

the size of this one in the country
have four banks and this is but an.
other token of the substantial pro-
gress that we are making in every d.
rection.

If you want to read a story that calls
before you the failures. successes, loves
and ambitions Of the Virginia Colonists,
read ITO Have and to Hold. :" 1t is a
picture OF Colonial times remarkable
for its freshness and strength. The
struggle of Lord Carnal for the wife of

read it, The book is on sale at the Acme

BRASS RINGS ARE JEwELRY.
The Circumstances Under Which
Uncle Sans Revenue Officers
So Decide.

Though Uncle Sam has just decided
that brass finger rings constitute
"jewelry," the old fellow, of course,
doesn't expect that all of his coun-
trymen will accept this classification
for all purposes, says the New York
Press. He meant to say only that
when these articles are imported they
are to be assessed for duty as iewelry
and not as toys. These rings are COM
posed of brass, in. imitation Of gold,
and are set with various forms Of
colored glass in imitation Of precious
stones. They are of sizes suitable to
be worn by children and also by
some adults" The importers con-
tended that they were intended to be
sold chiefly by confectioners and
others in prize packages and that
they We're designed for the use and
amusement of children as toys. But
the board of general appraisers in
New York has decided that they be-
long to the class of articles common
ly known as jewelry. The same de-
cision applies to necklaces of glass
beads. to brass chains intended for
watch guards or neck chains and to
harpins of gilded metal, set with
coIored glass. Therefore, as jewelry
these articles must pay II duty Of 60
per cent ad valorem, instead Of q
lower duty as toys.

The wheat crop in this county

growth Of straw is nearly double
that of last season and there is a
good pros ect for the heads filing

large as it is growing finely, and

The corn is starting very nicely,
and the farmers are encouraged to
look for good yield. The same
may be said of potatoes. and the
rain OF Saturday was very timely.
The grass as a rule has made a
very slow growth, the weather hav-
ing been too cold and dry for rap

will be light, and the farmers
should sow millet or corn for fodder
in order to tide over another wihter
