Note also that some of the
finest intellectual efforts are void
of results. Note also that the
finest preaching, "according to
our standard," bring no increase

"voters" receive into the church
converts who were led to the
blessed Saviour through the ef

workers 1
Note how barren of results
the most intellectual preaching,
when the Holy Spirit is with

God help His ministers and

A happy New Year to you,
Mr. Editor, and all of your read
ears.
Tho year just olosed has in
many respects been a most re
markable one to inav. Some
have added riches to their al?
ready accumulated wealth, some
have not been so fortunate anet
havo been called upon to give up
lands, homes and the saddest of
all have been called upon to give
up their loved ones. With many
renewed obligations and better
intentions we have begun the
new year's work, and may peace
and prosperity reign all over the
land. We hope that the cry of
war has ceased forever.
Miss Mamie A. Hamilton will
attend the Marlboro Graded
School this session at Bonnetts

Mr. and Mrs. Thomas R. Wil

Mr. "Billy" Rivers, of He

him and his a warm welcome in

Mr. Wilson Cottingham, of
Ebenezer, has moved down to
Mr. Jim Coxe's. We are surry

Mrs. Sarah Odom has a nour
ishing school at Ebenezer, and
is giving entire satisfaction to
all. There seems to be more in
terest taken in the free schools
at present than for many years
heretofore.
Mrs. Lindsey, widow of tho
late John Odom, of Brightsville,
breathed her last on Thurday
morning last. She was a good
woman, a professed christian for
a number of years and lived to
the ripe old age of four score
years. Her children, grand
children and great grand child
ren will "rise up and call her
blessed." She leaves a large
family connection and a host of
friends to mourn her loss. She

Wells, the new preacher for the
Blenheim circuit, was on hand
and preached his first;sermon at
Ebenezer. He has made a #t
impression and we sin coi
hope that his labors of love
prove beneficial both to j

855. Died Washington, January

A WISE TEXAN.
Dr, How n Capitol Guide Lost n Pos?
slblo Big Fat Foe.
A stranger from Texas sauntered
Into thc capitol and fell into tho
hands of a guido who offered to
show bim thc sights of the building,
says tho Washington Post.
"Good enough," quoth the Texan.
"Before we begin, let's take adrink."
Being of an accommodating na
ture, the guido consented, and the
two quaffed a couple of quaffs right
ufayly. Tho guide's eyes bulged
when the Texan drew from his pock
et a big fistful of bills in paying
for tho liquor, and be scented a
handsome foo. Ho led thc. Texan all
over tho building from tho crypt to
tho dome, and Into both houses. Ho
pointed out all thc celebrities, and
Iben, by way of a wind up, took bis
victim to statuary hall and placed
him on ono ut ibo v.hiapuringstones.
"Stay there," tho guido said,
"till you bear me speak."
Then tho guido disappeared in tho
crowd to the other stoue. A lady
was standing on it, and tho guide
wai tod a moment for ber to leave.
Tho Texan, who was getting uneasy,
looked round, and not seeing tho
ruido, set to thinking. Just then bo
. aw a young girl look at him and
. ule, and later two boys did thc
no. A great light suddenly broko
rion him. Instantly be left tho
done, and as bc disappeared from
I lie hall and started for tho big door,
lie muttered in the hcariug of a po
liceman:
"I may be from Texas, and some
af reen about city ways; but I reckon
I'm a leotlc too wise to bo caught
?olding the snipe bog again."
And then ho and tho guide's fat
fee vanished together.

H ion came tho words bicycle,

The word becane, which has also
)ecn given to it, is taken from thc
Argot. Its etymology is unknown.
It signifies simply machine.
In Italian it is called vcloclfcro,

The laws under which the legal reserve,
ir net valuation companies were organ
zed, are very crude and arbitrary. No
iew companies are organized under
hem, and thc old companies have seen
he ?.tangers and have been trying to,
.emedy the evils. They would get out
>f thc clutches of those "unwise and
tasty" laws if they could. They arc
breed to charge exhorbitant rates, in

Take the evidence of the legal-reserve
.cpresentalives themselves. Richard A.
vlcCurdy, President ol the National Lile,
me of the oldest and strongest legal
eserve companies, says:
"The irrelevant theory ol net valua

Chalton T. Lewis, counsel of the Mu
ual Life, says: "Built upon mistaken
issumptions, by false logic, it has become
n its application a tangled mass ol prac
ical absurdity, scarcely paralleled in
tny other branch of the administration
il law. To determine thc reserve upon
1 single policy is to repudiate science,

David P. Fodder, a distinguished in
?urance man and the first President of
he Actuariel Society of America, said :
"The legislation which needlessly
vrccked so many companies during thc
ast score of years was, in a large degree,
he product of ignorance, baste and pas
don, and we should now endeavor to
:orrect these mistakes ol tie past, lest
hey bear a Iresh crop of evils in the

Thc Fidelity has avoided these "ab

Bemicttsvillc, December 4, 1895.
E havo long sinco concluded that tho extravagant descriptions o?
an Imaginary Stock of Goods, which are so commonly used as
Advertisements in those days, aro a mistake How many readers of
tho glowing udvertisoniouta of those times believe what they read?
If they do not, WHY? * Wo think tho reason lute booti, tho picture is
too often overdrawn. Too many promises arc made; which a. > never
fulfilled. Wo feel sure, however, that wo vio not DISTORT THU TAUTS.
When wo say wo havo made AMPLE PROVISION tor tho WANTS
OF OUR CUSTOMERS in our selections of
CHRISTMAS PRESENTS FOR 1899 !
Wo have used our experience of past years, and have only seleoted
such Goods as will be ATTRACTIVE or USEFUL, and ho ia per.
h'ctly GOOD TASTE, both for tho Purchaser and for the Receiver.
TN A STOCK SO YARIED AS OURS it would ho almost impos
?*. siblo to enumerate tho many articles wo have which are eminently
suitable for presonts for all ages. We only wish to say, that wo will
still lead in tho Vartoty ot Goods shown, and number of opportunities
oiler for tho selootion of '. KL
llcalfetg, ?ahmblc fjraenta for $tua?
Wo will not sell thom at or below cost, neither will we guarantee
thom to bo cheaper at our placo than any other. All these rnsh assor
tions, so frequently used are "Claptrap" and "Humbug." Wo DQ
SAY, THOUGH, will give you tho benefit of our Experience in tho selec
tion of tho Goods, and will Guarantee as Glose Prices as any reputa*
ble Dealer can sell the same class of Goods for.
Wo think wo have some BARGAINS. Como and investigate pill
Stock. Wo will make every effort to please/you.
WISHING YOU ALL A MERRY - ?H?ISTM AS,
I remain, very respectfully, '..N
