Dyspeptic Philosophy.

To sneer at success is the prerogative OF
failure.
A thing ceases to be a luxury after VIC
have money enough 10 afford IT,.
Many man is honest because his price
is too high.
The people who believe most strongly IN
luck are those who never have any.
Some men are so perfect that il seems
as though their wives ought TO have them
stuffed and mounted.
The trouble with self-conscious people
Is that they forget themselves.-New York

for a stickpin or a nice pair of gold cutf
buttons, a tie clasp or say a signet rims,

sleds and coasters, too. Most of the boys
these days like to shoot and hunt. A rifle
or a shotgun will make your boy the proud
est lad in the neighborhood. Perhaps a
foot ball will please him, even though this
is not foot ball season. IT'S a good thing TO
encourage a boy who has a taste in the
direction of carpentering by giving him a
tool chest for Christmas. You will find
most Of these things in the basement in the
hardware department.
What can you do to amuse a boy in the
house when the thermometer is tucked UP

nearer having all that is coming to him

ginners and good enough for the most ac-
complished. A. Hospe Company.
If he hasn't a good sled don't you think
that when coasting time comes he would
appreciate it more than anything else? The

In the toy department, look over some of
the mechanical engines or motor boats, If
the boy has a practical turn of mind.
II you are looking for sleds, go into the
Boston Store, where you will find line OF
them from 25 cents to $3.50.

Corporation Formed TO Build and OPP
crate Power Plant on Y-dkin River.

T. W. Stephens & Company. New
York are offering for public subscript-
ION A,JOO.OO first mortgage six per
cent gold bonds Of The Whitney Com
ipany. This company was formed to
build and operate a hydraulic-eiectric
power plant on the Yadsin River in
the central part OF North Carolina.
The locality in winch the power sta
ton is being built Is in the midst of
large number of cotton mills. whose
demand Off cheap power will undoubt-
|edly utilize the entire capacity OF the
Whitney plant. There are 257 mills
Il radius of so miles using about
1900 horse power per annum mostly
steam. The Whitney Company de-
at present will be 10000
horse power with sufficient land and
water power to develop IN additional
power of $1,000 horse power per an
mum.
Steam driven plants are now costing
.from $50 to $50 per horse power per
|annum wrile the Whitney Company
evidently expects to sell their power
at about $50 per horse power e an
mum.
1t is believed that the economic con-
.ditions in the textile trade in the
south will be materially affected by
the saving which the mills will be able
to make under the new conditions.
The enormous growth of the manufac-
cotton industry in the south
will be materially ~accelebrated by the
developments such as are now taking
place at Whitney and several other
points in the southern states.
There are several other factories
which give such power plants great
advantage over similar properties in
the north. In the present case the
flow of the river is constant through
out the year and there is no ice TO
interfere with the working Of the WIN
ter season.-Greensboro Telegram.
