Billy's Budget.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:

Tbs mail boxes have come and
slrea hy more patrons are being
servefd and getting their mail nearby.
The volume of nail matter continues
to iacresse and We have been reliably
informed the business done on thi:
route exceeds that done on either OF
thA three routes emanating from
North. This speaks well for our
service here when We take in the
general surroundings. One OF the
North routes has been in operation
for about three years, if I mistake
not, and this one took effect April
"a, 1903 Our people are an appre-
cistivs people and reading people.
Yesterday was Ascension day and
q goodly number of young folks and
old ones met at the John J. Smith
old mill pond and erjoyed the day
with picnic, boat-rlding, music,
courting, etc. The day dawned
bright and no feeting clouds OBJ
scured the SKY and the sun smiled
down upon a crowd Of gay young
lovers, who, in the vision of their
youthful fancy, seemed happier than
the bright May day of unclouded
felicity. Here and yonder could be
seen little groups of 2's and Fs,
sometimes less and sometimes more,
who were possessed with novelty Of
feeling that caused something to
glow in their youthful! minds that
mad bewildering and bewitchipg
effect upon their faculties. Here
they sat and stood by the ripping
waters beneath whose waves swan
the fnny creation and chatted of
things only known by themselves,
while the tiny minnow played upon
the bosom of the crystal waters.
Soon these youthful dreamers will
awaken to the realities of married
life. (?) And realize that life is real
and life is earnest.
The annual picnic, the occasion Of
Children's day, at Red Bank, will
come off this season on Saturday be-
fore the first Sunday in June. The
big hearted, whole souled Superin-
tendent, T. Hayne Williams, ask me
to say that the public is cordially
invited to be present. The Sunday
school will have exercises in decla-
nation, songs, etc. There will be
some cool drinks and plenty to eat
But you carry your basket well
filed. Billy Felix.

Missirian, 154 Orange street, bought rugs heavily during the past two months. Two req sons induced him to do this; one, the unusually tempting prices made to him by large importing houses and the oth- CT, the fact that everything points to a marked advance in prices in fall in Oriental rugs. His one weeks sale, ending next Saturday evening, during which he is giving selection of his en- tire stock at bona f1de reduction of 20 per cent. It is 20 per cent. on present regular prices; probably 25 to 35 per cent. on prices that will prevail six months from now. Sale has been brisk. but strangely, customers are almost all regular rug buyers, who realize values and buy simply because of the great saving this sale affords.
