MIS- OI1drIeS
AS from the world thy spirit takes its flight
How deep the darkness seems!
Upon our vision in the gloom of night
A star is lost whose beams
In gentle radiance shone to cheer and guide
And shed holy peace
That in our hearts will evermore abide
Till life itself shall case
And in grief solace sweet we find;
The clear, benignant star
That beamed with every grace of heart and mind
Is in skies afar,
Where, sinking not into the void of night
1t takes its upward way
TO melt into the glory of the light
OF everlasting day.

GOOD NEWS FOR
LOVERS OF THE WEED.


Popular Drug Stores TO Cooperate With
National Cigar Stands Co. in Sale of
Tobacco Products.
The opening Of the National Cigar
Stands in four local drug stores this week
will be an event of unusual interest to
smokers. IL will be the first opportunity
for the smokers of Wilmington to test the
benefits derived from the great union of
1000 cigar stands under the National
Cigar Stands Co.'S emblem.
The stand itself will prove as much
a revelation to smokers and dealers
az will the price.reducing methods of
this great concern. For beauty and
utility IN preserving cigars the stand
IN Dantorth's, Gallagher q Bros, All
mond.s and Cappeau's drug stores is
indeed unique.
The National Cigar Stands Co. was
formed by some 1000 American drug
g,sts who wish.d to combine the pur-
chasing power OF their cigar stands into
one powerful market-controlling con-
ce,n. Through the company, these drug
giets can buy IN such vast quantities
that they control their own factories,
produce their own brands and bring
cigars direct from factory to smoker at
prices closer to the actual cost of pro-
duction than has ever been known.
By delivering cigars direct from pro-
ducer to smoker the National Cigar
Stands Co. eliminates from their cigar
prices four profits that ordinarily 60 to
middlemen and jobbers. This saving
IS given TO the smoker in the form OF
lower prices on equal cigars or in better
values Tor the same price
BY producing in enormous auanti-
ties, eliminating the iobber's profits
and selling direct. with little expense
for rent and no expense for extra clerl,
hire, It is not surprising that National
Cigar Stands are able TO give to smokers
cigars OF the usual 3-for-25c quality foi
DC, lO-cent cigars at &c, and so on, up tc
the very finest class Of imported Havanas. 4
