As quickly as possible the injured man was brought to Selma, but the loss of blood he suffered was so great that no hope was held out for his recovery as soon as an examination had been made.
 The deceased has been running out of Selma on the Mobile division of the Southern railway for some years past and was well known throughout this section of the state He leaves his wife two daughters and son besides numerous other relatives to mourn his death.

ad nauseam, all ending in the awful
 orgy of the summer clearance sales. Every merchant in town is doing it, from the swellest and most exclusive shops to the tiniest little bit of a hole in the wall, where you wonder how the proprietors ever sell enough to pay rent. In some of the shops all sorts and con- ditions of salesmen are introduced for the
 occasion people who know nothing what ever about the stock and who are hopeless when it comes to serving the customer. This especially is true in the big cities, and l recall once going to shoe sale in New York, where 1 had my teeth all but
 knocked out, my perfectly good, false hair torn from my scalp, my shirtwaist snatched off me and my hat knocked into last years cotton crop.
 All of New York looked as if it had been barefooted for a century if you were to judge by this sale and the crowd that stormed this particular shop, and l re-
 member rushing up to a big. good looking
 salesman, whom you'd have taken for one of the Goulds or Vanderbilts if he had . been on Fifth avenue, and when I asked him something about a certain pair of slippers, he said.
 Really, Madame, I don't know the stock very well. I'm a street car conduc- tor by trade, and l just came in to help out with this shoe sale, but you just wait; | I'll call somebody who does know | And
 | l saw h'm motion to a certain person | and call out:
 Step lively there No, I mean-' | True to his training he was calling out | the invocation that he gave to his patrons | in the crowded street cars and for the | life of him he couldn't do away in a mo-
 ment with the habit that was strong
 upon him, for habit will assert itself, no
 matter what appears.
 There are two sides to every story, | though, and if the summer clearance sales are hard on those who buy, they are equally as hard on those who sell. l The air is more vtiated and the crowds more bosterous and hard to manage | than the Christmas crowds by far. And SO
