Is a name well known in the
world o£ fiction. The famous
“ Leavenworth Case ” is alone
sufficient to make her reputa
tion secure for all time. It is
generally regarded as one of
the strongest detective stcries
ever written. It is by no means
her only successful work.
“Behind Closed Doors” and
“That Affair Next Door” are
types of most successful nov- V
els. Another fascinating one v

Mrs. George Garrett Ityers Captivates an
Asheville Audience.
The Asheville Gazette of Friday
has the following complimentary ref
erence to Mrs. George Garrett Byers,
B. G. Clary" 11 I ° f this cit y :
1 La-t evening at the auditorium
George Krujer, pianist, of Cincinna’i,
and Mrs. Byers, vocalist, of Gaffney,
scored a pronounced musical triumph
in the concert given under the au
spices of the Southern Music Teach
ers’ Association.
“Mrs. Byers, the vocalist, possesses
a soprano voice of musical sweetness
and was encored again and again af
ter her second number. Among her
songs were ‘At 1’artiug’ and ‘The
Slumber Boat.’ The first named
was particularly well sung, Mrs.
Byers’ voice suiting the limpid, ten
der phrases of this selection.”
The Citizen of the same date con
tained the following:
“Many Asheville people who enjoy
superior music missed an opportunity
last evening by staying away from
the concert which was given at the
auditorium by Mr. Krujer, pianist,
of the Cincinnati conservatory, and
Mrs. Byers, vocalist, of Gaffney.
“Mrs. Byers (who, by the way,
consented at G o’clock to appear, the
singer who was expected from Cincin
nati having failed to come) revealed a
silvery voice of singular sweetness.
She sang two groups of little songs,
responding to an encore after her
second appearance. Her ‘Sweetest
Flower That Grows’ was especially
delightful.”

The three lectures on religious sub
jects by Father Costigan as announ
ced last week, will be given in the
court house beginning Wednesday
evening, at 8 o'clock.
The subjects of these lectures, or
“talks,” are those which command
the attention o'the thinking Chris
tian, no matter what creed he pro
fesses, wherefore, the public is cor
dially invited, and the assurance
given that nothing will be said from
which anyone may take offence.
These meetings will not be in the
nature of a revival during which per
sons will be asked to become mem
bers of any special church, or give
over their own belief, but will be
occasions for the exposition of doc-
torine in which the consciences and
creeds of all will be respected.
The following are the subjects;
Wednesday evening, “The Divinity
of Christ,” Thursday, “The necessity
of faith,” Friday. “The Bible.”

8tat« .Jiint What You Want,
There is a lot of the most desirable
trade that no one can get who doesn’t
handle “Clifton” Hour. Users of
“Clifton” can’t he satisfied with any
other kind. “Clifton” has established
a new standard of purity and the
highest excellence. If you have not
used “Clifton” recently, you should
by all all means instruct your grocer
to send you a sack when you order
flour again. Don’t let him persuade
you he has “something just as good.”
He may be buying other so-called
patent flour at a little less than he
pays for “Clifton,” and he naturally
wants to push this on you because he
makes a few cents more on it. In
sist on having “Clifton,” if you want
tbe purest and best.
