There was "no half-way work" about
Abner Riggs's praise for anything he |
approved.'" Consequently, the person
who asked him about his niece's musical
ability was prepared for an enthusiastic
answer.
"That girl is chock-full o' music," '
announced Mr. Riggs. "Chock-full (
and running over with it. In my (
opinion she will be the greatest muslclan
that's ever come out of New Eng- ,
land, if not of these United States.
"Sings like a bird, plays the piano, ,
melodeon, pipe organ, banjo and gul- ^
tar. Most anything that can be played (
that girl plays It?right off, as you ,
might say. Lately she's taken up the
fiddle and the cornet, and she's doing
fine work with both of 'em."
"She must be remarkably gifted,"
said the listener. "Is her voice soprano
or contralto?"
"Either," said Mr. Riggs promptly, ,
"just according to what's wanted and |
the nature of the song, she's got both
qualities. And as for playing?well ^
now, I'll tell you, that girl can get more ^
music out of an iron spoon and a tin
dipper than most could out of the best
harmonica that was ever made!"? ^

"What's the matter now, George?" (
inquired a new arrival, slapping 50 ,
cents in real money down on the mahogany.
"Oh, no-ding," smiled George. (
"But you were saying when I came ,

a trial In which one of the counsel ,
wearied everyone In court by his long- j
winded speech. After bearing It quiet- ,
ly for some time, the Judge Jotted down J
a note in pencil and smt it by an at- ,
tendant to the counsel In question. ]
When that gentleman had read It, he ,
made an abrupt ending to his oration,
for Sir Henry's note was as follows: |
"Patience competition.?Gold medal, ]
Sir Henry Hawkins: honorable men- j
tlon, Job." A very self-confident young ,
barrister was once Introduced to Sir (
Henry, and throughout his conversa- (
tlon continually boasted of what he ,
hoped to do In the future. "Ah," said .
his lordship at last, "so you hope to be (
famous one day, eh?" "Yes," replied ,
, the barrister, "one day I hope to have (
the world at my feet." "Why, what .
have you been doing all this time?" In- ,
quired Sir Henry; "walking on your ,
hands?"?Bellman. ,
Jjsaxol's of Whom??A young mar- (
ried man of extremely Jealous dlsposl- ,
tlon recently visited one of the most
famous mediums in London. Being far
from home, he wanted to know what ,
his wife was doing. ,
"She is looking out of the window, |
evidently expecting some one." I
"That is strange," said Benedick. (
"Whom can she expect?"
"Some one enters the door and she (
caresses him fondly." went on the me- ,
dlum.
"It can't be!" cried the excited hus- (
band. "My wife is true to me." ,
"Now he lays his head on her lap j
and looks tenderly In her eyes." {
"It's false! I'll make you pay dear- ,
ly for this!" yelled the Jealous hus- <
band. .
"Now he wags his tall," said the me- ,
dlum.

Unprecedented.?a Pelham man of
extensive business enterprise recently
had occasion to buy a mule?a real,
live, no-Joke, sure-'nuff animal, to help
in the hauling:. The market was
searched for a mule, and at last a
likely beast was found for sale by a
local colored man whose veracity had
never been assailed. The price fixed
was not too high, as mule-prices go,
The mule was bought, accordingly,
and paid for. with the seller's accompanying
guarantee that the mule was
sound and kind. Four days later the
mule lay down in the stable yard and
died. The seller was sent for and an
explanation demanded. "Here is the
mule you guaranteed sound only four
days ago; he simply died!" exclaimed
the Pelhamlte; "what does it mean?"
The seller scratched his head a minute
and answered slowly: "I dunno, boss;
he never dun dat befo'." The purchase
money has not been returned.?Philadelphia
Ledger.
A Difference Wanted.?She had
come into the store to buy tablecloths
and she stated in the beginning that
she wanted something "new."
The salesman was patient and 3how- '
ed her everything in stock but nothing
suited.
"Oh dear!" she exclaimed fussily,
"haven't you anything different?"
The clerk brought out one of the discarded
tablecloths that he had put
back on the shelf and said, with an i
air of interest: \
"Here is one of the very newest de- i
signs, madam. You see the centre is in i
the middle and the border rune right 1
around the edge." <
"Why, yes. Let me have that one," 1
she said eagerly.?Philadelphia Ledger.
i
Hriw to Drum.?It was the custom i
in the days of our old navy for the
men to bring to the mast all the worn i
out articles which were to be inspected, 1
handed in and exchanged for new. The I
drummer had applied for so many i
drum-heads that the commodore felt
sure he was being imposed upon, and {
one day set himself to watch while the
band was playing. As one rattling <
martial air followed another his anger 1
increased perceptibly, until he burst <
forth in uncontrollable rage:
"There now, confound you! I see <
why you use so many druin-heads! |
Don't drum in the middle of it all the (
time. Drum all over that drum. I tell i
you!"?Harper's Monthly. i

News, December 4: Mr. S. W. Mitch}11,
of the Hotel Royal, visited Yorkville
this week Mrs. J. C. Elliott,
vho has been visiting' her daughter in
Port Lawn. Mrs. Lloyd Moore, returned
home Monday... .Mr. Arthur Knight
ind Miss Nettle Sowell, daughter of
Mr. J. Mike Sowell. of this place, were
married last Sunday. The ceremony
svas performed by Rev. T. A. Dabney,
pastor of the Second Baptist church.
A correspondent of the News
i few weeks ago gave our readers an
interesting account of Mr. J. B. Mothjrshed's
model farm, the crops on it
:he present year, etc. Reference was
made in the communication, it will be
recalled, to an acre of exceptionally fine
:orn of the Marlboro Prolific variety.
The yield by actual measurement was
)2 7-8 bushels. A farmer who helped
to pull the corn offered to let Mr.
Mothershed measure out of his crop 75
bushels in exchange for this crop on
the ground, but Mr. Mothershed was
(vise in declining the proposition, as
esults proved. Notwithstanding the
ract that the cotton crop is short this
/ear, Mr. Mothershed made twentythree
bales on twenty-six acres, and
the most of It is now in the warehouse,
m?ine held for 15 cents That the
svlcked flee when none pursue was
clearly exemplified here Monday morning.
Just before daylight Policeman
Riddle went to a negro house on
Market street to capture a party wanted
for an alleged offense. Hearing the
ifflcer at the door, one Will Murphy,
colored, who was in another room in
the building, without taking time to
put on his shoes and clothes, sprang
cut of a window and sprinted through
:he cold, frosty air, putting on no
crakes until he had safely crossed the
corporate limits. Murphy was not the
man the policeman was after, but he
?vidently thought so. There is a charge
pending against him of gambling, and
le probably concluded that the officer's
visit had something to do with
that charge.
GASTON.
Gastonia Gazette, Dec. 3: Receipts at
the local platform up to noon today
ivere 22 bales. Total since Friday, 104
Pales. November receipts were 752
Pales. The best price today was 10.95
cents Mrs. Ollie Hord, wife of Mr.
J. J. Hord, who lives at the Loray mill,
lied Sunday at noon after a brief illness.
The body was taken to King's
Mountain through the country yesterlay,
the party leaving here at 10
c'clock. Interment was made in the
King's Mountain cemetery after funeral
services in the Methodist church there,
conducted by Rev. J. C. Harmon of
lastonia.... An exciting runaway took
place Saturday morning on Main street
ivhen a team belonging to Mr. Lee
Whltesides became frightened at the
Ire wagon and made a spirited dasn
rom the Citizens Bank to the corner
jf Main and York streets. The team
.vas standing unattended and got a
pood start before any effort could bo
made to stop them. At the York street
'orner the team dashed into a tree,
<reaklng the tongue into several
ueces, smashing the front of the wag>!
and landing the mule on his back
r> the road. The animals had a miriculous
escape,, neither being badly
cruised or hurt. The wagon contained
i bale of cotton Said an observant
:itizen to the reporter a few days ago:
A warning ought to be sounded to the
people to protect themselves against
jurglars. The average family Is ve-y
areless about seeing that their houses
ire properly closed at night, all the
vindows fastened down and doors se:urely
locked. An unusually large
lumber of burglaries are being comnitted
over the country at this time.
Recently there have been several in
ind around Charlotte. It was a burgar
who shot Chief of Police Goforth
it Newton. Only last week fifteen
louses were entered by burglars at
Hickory." All of which Is good advice.
\s the old saying is an ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure and
t is better to be prepared for such an
jccurrence than to have to regret It af:er
It Is over.
TRIALS OF THE RICH.
financial Prosperity and Its Worries
and Perplexities.
Once upon a time a young man ana
i girl loved each other fondly. He
vas poor, but bright, energetic and
>erseverlng. She was pretty, cheerful
ind amiable. They married. Their
riends thought they might have wa.'t?d
until their prospects were better,
sut they laughed prudence to scorn.
Two years after the marriage the
vife met one of her friends.
"How are you getting along?" asked
:he friend.
"Very nicely," said the wife, beamng.
"My husband Is so good, and I
lave such a lovely baby. And, just
:hlnk. we have $1,000 in the bank, and
,ve don't owe a cent to anybody!"
Five years later the friend met her
igain.
"I hear you are doing very well,"
she said. "Some one told me your
lusband had $10,100 invested in real
?state."
"Why, yes," said the wife, "but It's
<uch a worry. There are repairs and
;axes and interest on mortgages, and
?ne of the tenants has just moved out
wing us a whole month's rent. Isn't
t a shame?"
Five years more elapsed, and again
the friend met her.
"They tell me you're growing rich,"
she said.
"Ye-es, but I'm anxious about the
stock market. My husband has $50,000
in stocks, and he thinks they're going
up, but I'm not so sure about It. Indeed,
I didn't sleep a wink last night."
Five years later?another meeting.
"From what I hear your husband
will soon be a millionaire."
"Oh, I don't know," said the wife.
"He hasn't more than half a million
yet. And it is so tied up In all sorts
ol' Investments?one never knows how
they will turn out. I just wish we
had enough to put the money in government
bonds so that we wouldn't
have to worry. But of course the income
from half a million in government
bonds wouldn't be enough to
make both ends meet. And yet, do
you know, some people have such
absurd notions about the amount of
money we have! One crank has even
sent a letter to my husband threatening
to shoot him Just because he is
rich. I declare, sometimes I'm so worried
I don't know what to do."
It would be pleasant to give this
story a happy ending, but that isn't
the kind it had. This lady's wealth
continued to increase as long as she
lived, and she never ceased to be uneasy
except in those brief intervals
when she forgot all about it.?Bohemian.

THE BLACK BEAR.
Her Physic and Her Food After ner
Five Months' Sleep.
The black bear has her cubs, from
one to three, in her den during the
months of March and April, and it is
an interesting thing to know that she
has the power to give birth to her
young at least two weeks before the
proper time If driven from her den.
She will return to her cubs if let
alone. In the den she cares for her
young until the snows of the north
country have sufficiently melted to
permit of her getting about, when she
"hits the trail" again. She eats nothing
during the five months that she
hibernates, except that from time to
time she will lap the icicle which is
made by the freezing of her breath on
her paws. She ventures forth as soon
as the snow has sufficiently melted to
permit of her getting about and for
several days will eat nothing but hemlock
bark and certain roots, which act
as a physic. When in her normal
state of health again she is ravenously
hungry' and will diligently fish the
brooks and streams in search of a dinner
of trout, will hunt up the carcasses
of deer or moose which have been
overcome by the severity of the winter
or will prey upon porcupines by
quickly putting her paw under the
stomach and rolling the porcupine on
its back, then with a slap tear out the
entrails and escape tne quins.?neia

HOG CHOLERA.
The greatest drawback to the hog
Industry which breeders In this country
have to contend with Is what is known
as "hog cholera" and "swine plague."
Hog cholera Is a highly contagious
disease and unless checked Is liable to
carry off a great number of hogs In a
very short time.
Mr. A. P. Williams, of Burnett's
Creek. Ind., tells of an experience which
he had with some hogs that had the
cholera. "Five years ago," says Mr.
Williams, "I was in the employ of Mr.
J. D. Richardson, Lafayette, Ind., as
his barn foreman. Some fine hogs that
I was feeding took the cholera. I gave
them Sloan's Liniment and did not lose
a nog. oorne were su uau mey wuuiu
not drink sweet milk and I was compelled
to drench them. I have tried
it at every opportunity since and always
fine It 0. K."

The Average
Citizen
Buys life Insurance from an agent
and buys because the agent tells him
so and so, and never stops to investigate
and find out whether the company
ne represents nas a long anu ciean record
behind it for honest, clean methods
and giving every policy holder,
whether he has a large or small policy,
or whether he is rich and "influential"
or of moderate means or no means at
all, a square deal under any and all
circumstances. Occasionally men who
buy insurance this way do not get
what they imagined they would get,
and when they realize that the policy
delivered by the agent Is what they are
bound by, and that perhaps the company
has not passed the experimental
stage of existence, and may never pass
it, as hundreds and hundreds have not,
they are dissatisfied and say hard
things about agents and insurance
generally, when really they nave only
themselves* to blame. Especially is
this true of readers of The Enquirer
because they have been reminded time
and time again during the past eight
years of the fact that wise men always
"look before they leap." Said
readers have been urged over and over
again to investigate the Mutual Benefit.
Many have done so, and every one
is more than satisfied, because he is
sure that none except other members
of the Mutual Benefit have as good
policies as his.
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
are being loaned by the Mutual Benefit
to its South Carolina policy holders.
All policies issued by the Company
provide for Loans after the payment
of TWO PREMIUMS, and today
thousands who are absolutely unable
to raise a dollar from any other source,
no matter what they may be worth, or
what security they have to offer, are
securing LOANS UNDER THEIR
POLICIES. Within the past thirty
days thousands of dollars have been
loaned by the Company to its South
Carolina Policy Holders in amounts
ranging from the smallest premiums
to $3,000.00

WHAT IS LIFE INSURANCE?
It is a plan by which one can secure
to their family, a part of the value of
one's life. It protects a family from
want, when their supporter is taken
from them. In Life Insurance, it Is
not the life Itself that is Insured, but
It Is the value of Its production. A
life which has no producing value is|
uninsurable as much so as an untenantable
bulldirg. A Iiife Insurance]
Policy is a Life Preserver.
The Farmers' Mutual Life Insurance
Company is making a special offer for

HEADQUARTERS
To make the claim of being Headquarters
for FURNITURE, THOU8E

damonatrata one's right to that distinction
is another proposition.
However, we claim the distinction of
being Headquarters and believe that we
are every day proving our right to the
distinction. We have reached this position
by continually giving our closest
and most careful attention to the demands
of our trade, by Knowing How,
Knowing Where and Knowing When
to buy. Right buying gives the key- V
note to right selling, and that our selling
is right is demonstrated by the
large and growing Furniture business
that we are doing.

House Furnishings, Stoves or
Ranges, 8ewing Machines, eto.- do your
pocketbook the Justice of seeing our
goods and getting our prices before
