IT GIVES US GREAT PLEASURE TO NOTIFY OUR PATRONS THROUGHOUT TUB country that our MAMMOTH BRICK WAREHOUSE which we have just completed is now ready for business. We have the best appointed and most perfectly equipped compartment warehouse in the South. Being built entirely of brick, tin covered, provided with elevators for hoisting cotton beyond any possibility of danger of damage by water in llood periods; with hy drants, hose, and an elaborate system of perforated pipes extending through each compartment, together with other appliances for quickly extinguishing iires, we make bold to say no other ware house can offer better security from dauger from every source than we are now prepared to do. We have now convenient and commodious storage room, and such complete protection against loss l>y flood or fire, that we can almost guarantee against these accidents without risk to our selves. We would remiud our friends that for a number of years we have maintained the best interior cotton market in the South, and we have little doubt that in the future we will increase our repu tation for high prices and liberal dealing. It is well known among manufacturers the world over that Rome, cottons are of very superior qualitiy, and in all markets they readily command a pre mium. It is well for our friends who buy from the uplands to bear this in mind, as by placing their consignments here they get the benefit of orders at high prices sent here from “Coosa bottom cottons.” W ith ripened experience and increased facilities, we are confident of our ability to han dle shipments in the most satisfactory manner. It is our rule to follow written instructions to the letter; where none are given, “quick sales and prompt returns” is our motto. We will, if desired, furnish our regular market quotations throughout the season. Should you fail to receive them please notify us and we will add your name to our permanent list. We return thanks to our patrons at last seasou for giving us such liberal shipments. We would assure them that we again want their business, and will merit it by faithful attention to their interests. Respectfully, ROUNS AYILI E & BROTHERS. P. S.

This is au era of centennial celebra tions, and Frenchmen hare a natural penchant for commemorating men or f rents that they may deem worthy of honor or remembrance. Just now the town of Montdidier is preparing to celebrate, with all the eclat possible, what is termed the Parmentier cen tenary, but which is in reality the cen tenary of the introduction of the potato into France. All the most dis tinguished men in France are invited to the fete, which will last for about ten days. M. Pasteur writes that he could not think of abandoning his “chers enrages ” for such a length of time; M. de Lesseps expresses his re grets, but has induced the institute to appoint Baron Larrey to represent him on the occasion, and M. Chevreul, the centenarian scientist, laments his inability to be present, and adds with naive pathos: “Though I may not be with yt>u in person, my heart will be there, as Montdidier is the natal spot of that dear girl, Mile. Sophie Dava lette, whom I married in 1818.” M. Parmentier, who was born 1737, in Montdidier, and died in 1813, led a checkered life and made a great sensa tion in his day. He was at one time a chemist in the army of Hanover, and subsequently a prisoner in the seven years’ war. A disciple of Nol let, Rouelle and Jussien, he finally turned his attention to the study of the potato, and obtained the authorization of Louis XVI. to cultivate the tuber in the plain of Sablons, near Paris. The potato was at that epoch held in utter contempt in France, and was considered only as food for hogs. Parmentier struggled for years against countless obstacles and difficul ties in his effort to make the despised •‘apple of the earth” an article of food, but his ingenuity finally triumphed. He prepared a banquet to which he in vited the leading savants of France, in order to prove to them the excellence of the potato and the variety of ways in which it could be rendered palata ble. The potato, to the great astonish ment of the savants, was served in thirty-three different styles, and when the banquet was finished it was declared to be the most delicious of esculents, and M. Parmentier was famous. It may be of interest to know the first course on the menu on that historic oc casion was styled pommes deter re en chemise, eommonly called in England “potatoes served up in their jackets,” and which on the other side of St. George’s Channel is vernacularly known as “praties biled.” His Majesty Louis XVI. then took up the cause of M. Parmentier and the potato. M. Parmentier visited the King at Versailles, holding a bunch of potato flowers in his hand. Louis oflY red him his right hand to shake; Marie Antoinette permitted him to kiss liar on both cheeks, and in the evening at a gala party given in the palace, his Majesty appeared wearing a bunch of potato flowers in the royal button-hole. The triumph of the potato, says the chronicler of the da}’, was thus conse crated. The thirty-three styles in which it was introduced by M. Parmen tier to the French cuisine have now— so says Alexander Dumas—reached two hundred and fifty, and the capabilities of the humble tuber from Virginia* have not yet been exhausted in the hands of the French cook. A statue was erected to M. Parmentier in his native city in 1848, in which lie is rep resented standing erect, holding in his hand a huge potato-stalk. Ilis body reposes in Pere la Chaise, Paris, in a handsome plot surrounded by an iron railing, and a beautiful monument stands above it, erected by the chemists of France. Every year the members ol the agricultural societies visit this spot and plant the grave and its surround ing parterre with potatoes.— Paris Cor. N. Y. World. A BOY’S COURAGE. How a Plucky Lad Saved Northern India to tlie British Crown. Do the lads of this generation de claim that poetical tribute to youthful heroism which extols the boy who “stood on the burning deck, whence all but him had fled”? When we were boys there was scarcely a “declamation day” on which we did not hear it re cited. It may be that the years since then have been so freighted with ex amples of boyish heroism that no boy now cares for “Casabianca.” One of these later, and, to our think ing, more attractive examples of youth ful heroism occurred at the outbreak of the Sepoy mutiny in 1857. Just be fore the awful storm broke, the system of electric telegraphs had been extend ed over the surface of British India. The mutineers rushed to Delhi to seize upon the old hereditary seat of the Mohammedan empire, and began cut ting the throats of Europeans. W'hile the rattle of cannon and musketry was rolling around the telegraph office, a little English boy, moved by a sense of duty, stuck to his post until he had telegraphed to the Commissioner at Lahore. The message announced that the mutineers had arrived at Delhi, and had murdered this civilian and that officer, and wound up with these signilicant but childlike words: “We’re off!” The boy’s courage and sense of duty saved the Punjab. As soon as the tele gram reached Lahore, the General in command of the Sepoys disarmed them. When they learned of the rising at Delhi, they were powerless to do any injury. The General flashed the awful news to Peshawur. The Hindoostanee regiments there were also disarmed, and, though mutineers at heart, were rendered incapable of harm. Then the telegraph was cut by the rebels—but the °boy at Delhi had saved Northern India to the British crown. The officer in charge had been killed, but that brave lad staid long enough at the instrument to dispatch the warning. Youth's Companion. NOVELTIES IN JEWELRY. Unprecedented Popularity mt Stlm Aden meats of Every Deeeriptlon. Personal adornments in silver neve* attained to so high a degree of perfety tion as at the present time. Both aft home and abroad silver jewelry is th correct kind to associate with walking suits, traveling suits and seaside dresses. Among the new thing’s most attractive is the moonstone jewelry, which con sist of lace pins and brooches, bonnet pins, cuff-buttons and other articles in bright and oxidized silver set with moonstones. Some of these are in nat ural colors, others are tinted, some are plain and others carved. This style will receive high favor, as the silver settings are newer than gold ones and considered quite “chic,” while the moonstone is also novel Lace pins and brooches, made of gold, silver and copper combined, in rococo effects are very stylish. Some of these pins bear enameled plaques. Another old favorite, but still popular, is the clover-leaf pin in enameled sil ver. This is tinted in its natural green hue, following the size and form cor rectly. It is an admirable example of line enameled jewelry. Another odd and pretty pin is one simulating an antique bracket, from which swings a little silver lantern, with moonstone sidelights. There are silver flower pins set with fancy stones, and a double bow-pin enameled to represent figured ribbon. There is a variety of styles in silver belts, the newest being a wide silver band in satin finish. Silver watches show etched or enameled cases, and another new style equally attractive is the watch case decorated with raised wire work. In this work the surface is traced with gold and platina wires set with small stones. Charms for queen chains and bangles are of fanci ful character. Some of the noted are the Campanello bells, made conspicu ous by the popular actor Ivyrle Bellew, and the Egyptian Oodja, patronized by Princess Margueretta, of Italy. Silver bracelets represent many new designs, and the bangles with fifteen or twenty fine wires handsomely en grossed are much liked. An article on jewelry says: “It is a popular error to suppose that the dia mond is the most valuable of the pre cious stones. The relative value of the finer gems places the ruby at the head of the list, giving the diamond second place, and following it the sapphire. What are known as perfect diamonds are not uncommon, but a perfect ruby has almost a fictitious value in the market, as it is generally held at any price the owner sees fit to ask.” One very choice stone, a little larger than an ordinary sized cherry pit, is valued at $7,000. —Brooklyn Eaqle. PRECIOUS STONES. Gems Named After the Places Where They Were Principally Fonnd. Many of our stone names have no more mysterious origin than the name of the place where they were principal ly found. The chalcedony is from Chalcedon, near Constantinople. The turquois is from Turkey, its chief mart from Persia. Our agate comes from Achates, the old name for the river Drillo, in Sicily, where it is said t# have been first found. Jet owes its name to the Latin word for it, gagates, from Gages, the name of a town and river in Lycia. For our sard we may choose between Sardia, which Pliny adopts, and sered, the Persian for yellowish red. One derivation connects the topaz with the name of an Indian town, where it was found accidentally by some quarreymen, who mistook it for alabaster. Another traces it to an island in the Red sea called Topazus— from a word signifying to seek, be cause the said island was so beset with fogs that navigators had great difficul ty in finding it. Most of our precious stones being of foreign importation, they do not enter into our native mythology as flowers or animals do, nor, for the same reason, do they play a conspicuous part in English poetry. Pearls sometimes are spoken of as the tears of fallen angels, or, as Sir Wal ter Scott says: “See these pearls that long have slept, These ■wore tears which naiuds wept;” with which we may compare Robert Herrick’s account of rubies: Some ask'd me where the Rubies grew? And nothing did 1 say: But with my finger pointed to The lips of Julia. Some ask’d how Pearls did grow, and where? Then spoke I to my Girie, To part her lips, and show'd them thera The Quurelets of Pearl. — Gentleman's Maja.rine. WORRIED BY FELINES. A New Disease Discovered by a Bright Texas Policeman. There is a man in Austin who never uses plain language. He never calls a spade a spade, but “that sharp instru ment with which the sturdy granger lays open the bosom of our mother earth.” He always calls a cat a feline, a dog a canine, etc. One morningour friend went up to a policeman who thinks he knows every thing, and said: “1 sav, l am worried to death by felines; couldn’t sleep a wink last night.” The policeman didn’t like to admit that he di in't know what felines were, so he scratched his ear and replied, as if he knew precisely what was the matter: “It is sorry to hear it that I am, for it is a thrublesome complaint.” “I thought you, being a policeman, knew some remedy for these accursed felines. They worry a man to death at nights.” “I don’t know, sor, what I kin do for yez. Perhaps you need some med icine. 1 was thrubled wid ’em meself last spring.” “Thank you for the suggestion. I’ll go to the drug store and see if they haven’t got some stuff to kill them off.” “ Be very careful, sor, that you don’t kill yerself by accident, for thin ye would be guilty of suicide.”— Texas < tings. '■ s ♦- ♦ Excitement in Texas, Great excitement has been caused in the vi cinity of Paris, Tex., by the remarkable re covery of Mr. J. E. Corley, who was so helpless he could not turn in bed, or raise his head’ everybody said lie was dying of Consumption! Atrial bottle of Dr, King's New Discovery was sent him. Finding relief, ho bought a large bottle and a box of Dr. King’s New Life Pills; by the time he nad taken two boxes of Pills and two bottles of the Discovery, he was well and had gamed in flesh thirty-six pounds.

The Mount Lebanon (New York) Shakers are a quiet com munity, secluded from the fret and worry of the outside world. They are widely known, how ever, for their strict honor and probity in business. The Shakers believe that na ture has a remedy for every dis ease. A few have been found— the rest are as yet unknown. Many were discovered by acci dent. Others came to light as the result of patient experiment and research. Nervous Dyspepsia is a com paratively neiv disease, growing out of the conditions of modern life. It is a joint affection of the digestive organs and of the nervous system. These two were formerly treated as sepa rate ailments, and it was left for the clear-sighted Shakers to prove that the basis of this terrible and often fatal compli cation lies chiefly in the disord ered and depraved functions of digestion and nutrition. They reasoned thus: —“If we can in duce the stomach to do its work, and stimulate the excre tive organs to drive out of the body the poisonous waste mat ters which remain after the life giving elements of the food have been absorbed, we shall have conquered Nervous Dys pepsia and Nervous Exhaust ion. And they were light. Knowing the infallible power of Shaker Extract (Seigel’s Syrup) in less complicated though similar diseases, they resolved to test it fully in this. To leave no ground for doubt they prescribed the remedy in hundreds of cases which had been pronounced in curable—with perfect success in every instance where their directions as to living and diet were scrupulously followed. Nervous Dyspepsia and Ex haustion is a peculiarly Ameri can disease. To a greater or less extent half the people of this country suffer from it— both sexes and all ages. In no country in the world are there so many insane asylums filled to overflowing, all resulting from this alarming disease. Its leading symptoms are these: Frequent or continual head ache ; a dull pain at the base of the brain; bad breath; nau seous eructations; the rising of sour and pungent fluids to the throat; a sense of oppress ion and faintness at the pit of the stomach; flatulence; wake fulness and loss of sleep; dis gust with food even when weak from the need of it; sticky or slimy matter on the teeth or in the mouth, especially on ris ing in the morning; furred and coated tongue; dull eyes; cold hands and feet; constipation; dry or rough skin ; inability to fix the mind on any labor call ing for continuous attention; and oppressive and sad fore bodings and fears. ■ • All this terrible group Shaker Extract (Seigel’s Syrup) removes by its pos itive, powerful, direct yet painless and gentle action upon the functions of digestion and assimilation. Those elements of the food that build up and strengthen the system are sent upon their mission, while all waste matters (the ashes of life’s fire) which unremoved, poison and kill, are expelled from the body through the bowels, kid neys and skin. The weak and prostrated nerves are quieted, toned and fed by the purified blood. As the result, health, with its enjoyments, blessings and power, returns to the suf ferer who had, perhaps, aband oned all hope of ever seeing another well day. . - Kcsolve Not to Frocastiuate Any More.
