However, Iel tho wiso I heir wisdoni

But there will como a time ns sure as

When they will w' .h they had told

Big Fire at Hamlet.
The Seaboard Air Line com
was burned Sunday night. A
bookkeeper who was playing

An ice plant was burned at veil

Beautiful Sea Shell? Free
Since coming South I have received
numerous ind ninon for seashells, and
now piense say to your renders that11
have been living on the seashore, and
have made a fine collection of lovely
shells from our own shore, tho coral
reefs and tho West India Islands, and
that I will send a dozon di fieront

let soa peas to any ono who sends a

all such conduct.
