El1m A RAM ORUP ITNITUO AMIS I have determined that it is good business jaidgment to dispose offall and winter goods at sweeping out prices rather than to carry them over to another season, therefore I have marked down my immense stock of Blankets, Comforts, Flannels, Dress Goods, Ladies' Walking Jackets, Men's*Overcoats, Gent's and Children's Suits, Cloth ing of every description, includiug Odd Pants and Coats and Children's Knee Pant A fine assortment of Men's Vool Underwearand Men's Dress Shirts, WindowShades, dles, Harness, and in fact everything in my store will go during the month of January at Slaugh terirnPics Friends, this is no mere catchy advertisement.

Remember this is only a Clearance Sale to-:iiake room for a large spring stock already contracted for, and this sale only lasts through the month of January.

Watch the train as it dashes past you with a speed of sirtty miles per hour, and after it is lost in the dis tance sit down on the track and figure a little on the velocity of light. The train has passed with a mighty rush and great noise. but the silent beam of Slight flits past with a speed 11,179, 500 times greater: The initial velocity of a ball fired from a twelve pounder is 1.705 feet per second; that of light 1,560,124 feet in the same length of time. Comparisons give us but a very poor idea of the velocity, but they en able us to partially comprehend the immensity of the universe, for we know that with all its prodigious speed it takes light four hours to flash from Neptune to our earth. A Spool of Thread. To make a spool of thread, says a manufacturer. is a complicated process. Only the very best cotton can be used for this purpose. The cotton is taken in the raw state and torn all to pieces by a machine called a breaker. It then goes through several other machines, by which it is carefully combed and freed from impurities. A machine called a slipper takes it up and tri-sts it out into soft white yarn. This is carefully combed again, and it is taken into another departnwnt. where sev eral small strands of this yarn are twisted into one fine one. Three of these are twisted together, and you then have six cord thread, which, after it Is bleached, Is ready for the market. Chronic Constipation Cured.

Fdnillarity with death is apt to alter one's* earliest conceptions- of.4t.- . Two Ideas are very generally accepted wpich experience shows to be false. One is that the dying usually fear dea'th and the other that the act of dying is ac companied by pain. It is well known: to all physicians that when death 1f uear its terrors do not seem to be felt by the patient. Unless the imagination is stimulated by the frightful portrayal of the supposed "pangs of death" or of. the sufferings which some believe the soul must endure after dissolution it4s rare indeed that the last days or hours of life are passed in dread. !Nrbst sick persons are very, very tired.. S'eep-long. quiet sleep-is what they. want. I have seen many people die. I. have never seen one who seemed to fear death, except when it was or seem ed to be rather far away. Even those who are constantly haunted while strong and well with a dread of the end of life forget their fear when, that end is at hand.-Scribner's Magazine. Indigestion Overcome.

"The early days, the waiting for cli ents, was hard, though. Why, do you know that I got so after awhile that when I heard a footstep on the stairs I could tell ninety-nine times out of a hundred %-whether or not the person was coming to my office?" "Well, that is strange," replied his friend. "Your sense of hearing must bave been very acute." "Not so much that." replied the law yer.

A certain Atossa in early Roman days seems to have been the mother of au tograph collectors. Cicero had a collec tion, which must have been a flne one, for he speaks of it with particular pride. The fever, even in those far back days, was contagious. Pliny speaks of Pompeius Secundus, at whose house he had seen autographs of Cicero, Augustus, Virgil and the Gracchi, and his own collection was valued at $13,000 of our money. Then came the Inruish of barbarians, and..we do not again medt. with the collector until the b~gginning of the sixteenth ceigtury, when he reappears in the per son of a Bohemian -squire, who kept a book, to record his exploits in the chase aiCenrched it with the signatures of his great hunter friends.
