Wood for the Poor.
It will gratify our citizens to learn that I have
distribute.! among the poor, white and colored,
Bince last Friday m iming, seventy-two cords of
wood, thus furn.shing upwards of two hundred
families with temporary supplies. This wood
cost the city $1.00 per cord delivered at our depot
About a mont h hence I hope to have another sup
ply.
There is nowin hand a considerable quantity
of cloth, givei me by tho factories for the poor,
which will bo distributed as soon as I have time
to attend to it. In the meantime 1 trust no one
will bo making application for any o! it, as it is
intended mainly for the orphans.
I must beg our good ladies to seud to mv office
at the post office secoud-hand clothes of all sorts,
blankets, comforts, etc.,- anything that will
make tho poor comfortable this cold weather.
Especially I beg the shoe merchants and other
friends to send me shoes suitable for children
from ten to fourteen years of age. If our chari
table citizens could see the hundreds of poor
orphans who are compelled to tmdge through
the biiow or on the frozen ground these mornings
at daylight, l am sure they would send some
shoes to my office or the means of purchasing
them. Many of these orphans are barefoot to
day.
About ten days hence (D. V ) I shall be calling
far ‘‘Chi Istmas for the poor.”
And, lastly, as the preachers say, while I am
doing what I can to relieve the wants of the poor,
I am not without hope that it may occur to some
body that 1 am poor and that my services are
worthy of some recognition. ‘The laborer is
worthy of his hire.’’ J. H. Camprei.l

ChriKtiua* it* Coining
and brings with it the fond parents* desire to
make glad the hearts of their little ones. They
must buy something for them, and what must
they get. Right here we arc going to give them
“a pointer.” They must first make up their
minds how much they can afford to spend for
Toys, etc., and then if they will go to Adams A
Bowei8, at Strupper’s old stand, they can find
anything in the way of presents for the little ones
they may desire. If it is a Doll they can get one
from 1 cent each to $10, Doll Carriages from 50
cents to $5, Wagons from IP cent3 to $5, Veloci
pedes from $2 to $10, Bicycles from $8 to $18, Tri
cycles fabulously low. They have Games of a 1
kinds, tin and woode 11 Toys of all discriptions.
Tool Chests, Doll Furniture, House Swings, etc.,
etc In fact they have almost every imaginable
toy, ranging in price from 1 cents to $25. Besides
they keep constantly on hand a full line of tine
Confectionery. Candies from 9 cents to $2.50 a
pound. The best Fruits that can be bought. Just
think of it, 34 boxes Raisins at $1. Fine Malaga
Grapes at 25 cents a pound.
It is useless to attempt to name everything
th- y keep and give prices, if you waut something
good and cheap, Adams & Bowers are the men
to go to. Ia conclusion we will say that they
sell the best Stick Candy made at 9 cents a pound
in lot3 of twenty-five pounds or more.
