-There has never been a winter
when turkeys have been more plenti

From all directions the scarcity of tbis

--A great many of the stores have
already increased the number of their
clerks, preparatory to the Christmas
trade. The small boys are always
ready and willing to stop school in

to have begun already, and the mer
chants are being kept very busy.

and will refund the money to anyone
who is not satisfied after using two

best remedy in the world for ]a grippe,
coughs, colds, croup and whooping
cough and is pleasant and safe to take.
It prevents any tendency of a cold to
result in pneumonia.

A FLAG FOUND
A Mercenary Union Soldier Refuses to Re
turn it
The Lancaster Ledger contains a
most interesting article from the Mon
oe Enquirer, about a fag which was
given to Co. B, 26th N. C. Regiment,
by Miss Anna Cureton, now Mrs. J.
H. W. Stevens, of Lancaster. The
flag was made by Miss Cureton and
was presented on the 4th of July, 1861,
at Waxhaw. From there it was taken
to Raleigh, then to Morehead City and
then to Newbern. While the company
was at Newbern some one entered
Capt. Steele's Itent and stole the flag.
After this nothing was heard of the
fag until recently. Last September
Charles Horinng, of Iarlington, Iowa,
visited St. Louis, and whi'e there told
a reporter for the St. Louis Republic
of a flag which he had in his posses
sion and which he said he had pur
chased from a Union cavalry officer
named Burns. The officer, who is
now dead, told him that he got the
fag from a dying comrade who cap
tured it in battle. This was all that
Horning knew about the flag in his
possession. A description of the flag
was published in thej St. Louis Repub
li, and~ Mr. L. D. Richardson, who
moved from North Carolina to Green
wood, Ark., jnst after the war, saw
t e description and a cut of the flag
and wrote to the R public, Eaying that
he reedgnized the flig as being the one
presented by Miss Cureton to his old
company. lie said in this letter that
he would be too glad to have the flag
but was unable to pay anything for it,
but that if Capt. T. J. Cureton was
living he was the one to call for it, as
his sister made it. Mr. Richardsonr
also wrote to the owner of the flag
and asked for it, but Mr. Horning re
fused, saying that he had once refused
an offer of $1,000 for it, and that as he
is poor he conld niot part with it for
noting. Hie offered to give it up,
owever, if a suitable amount was
collected and sent him.
Mr. Richardson wrote to a friend in
Jackson county that Horning's state
ment that, he had been offered $1,000
for the flag, and his statement that the
flg was taken in b'.ttle are lies.
It seems a great pity that this iag
that would be so highly prized by the
survivors of this old regiment should
ba in the hands of a man who haa
o little sense of honor as the man
who now has i'.

-The small boys have begun their
Christmas celebration early, and the
popping of fire crackers is heard every,
day. The Rock Hill leraldcomp!..is
that men and boys of that town bave
abused this sport and b ve made it
such a nuisance that the town council
has been called upon to forbid the
firing of crackers within the town
limits. Our boys are usually very
careful and do not amuse themselves
throwing crackers at -horses or at peo
ple as mischief-lovers in many places
do. The large cannon crackers are
dangerous, being loaded with dyna.
mite, and it is well to be very cautions
in firing them, for very serious acci
dents have resulted from careless
handling of them.
How to Cure Croup
Mr. R. Gray, who lives near Ame
nia, Duchess county, N. Y., says:
"Chamberlain's Congh Remedy is the
beSt medicine [ have ever used. It is
a fine children's remedy for croup and
never fails to cnre." When given as
soon as the child becomes hoarse, or
even after the cronpy cough has de
veloped, it will prevent the attack.
This should be borne in mind and a
bottle of the Cough Remedy kept at
hand read y for instant use as soon a.s
these symptoms appear. For sale by
