Our advice to married women is to pul heir individual earnings deep down in heir own pockets, and not invest it in eal estate or other property.

This is the heaviest cotton move aent, by far, ever made in the history f the town in the same time. "Let ter roll." A report has been put into circulation n some sections of this county that the alances used by our cotton weigher are ncorrect, i. e. short weights. It is said he weigher himse'f is honest, but his malances are not. What inconsistency! 'he weigher honest-his balances dis Lonest. The report is damaging to the eigher and an injustice to the town. he balances are always open to inspec ion and trial, and those who put the eport in circulation know full well that here is not a shadow of truth in it. Our ner':hants pay high prices for cotton and ur weigher gives full weights, and the eller goes on his way rejoicing and ays he will come again and bring his teighbors with him, and everybody is appy and serene. Rev. J. E. Bushnell, of Roanoke, Va., pent several days in our town and sur ounding country, visiting his former arishioners and spending a short time ileasantly with each.

These were both his hurches two years ago. On Sunday ight Grace church was densely packed, here was great love existing between rer. B. and his people, and his visit to Lis former parishioners was the occasion f many joyous meetings. On Friday ight a real rich, substantial supper was :iven in his-konor, by Mr. L. S.
