P. Harry, of the Mutual Dry i. Goods Co., was omitted. Knowing us that we had written it and filed it ? with the other copy, we felt sore it !- had appeared, but find that the cotnk" positor overlooked it in setting up y the copy. The Mutual had a fine trade, the large corps of clerks employed by this big establishment were kept as busy as bees. Mr. , Harry said he was well pleased with ^ the trade and had no kick coming. ^ Some Pine Music. ? White in Spartanburg Moudty. We * met our old friend Mr. J. P.

Ntirdica repeatedly returned and bowed her aoknowledgements. She has a wonderful voice and she has it under perfect control, evm under the most ? trying and d ffl.ult select ions. It is 11 something to have heard Nordipa ? We enjoyed most the songs o f oourse - when sh* came down to earth and sang in English. She w*s soaring far above her audience with her French and German selections, but the voice was gra id and we could enjoy that without tiouh. ling ourselves to understand wha' ihe was saying.
