Who that ever saw President Arthur can forget the beautiful -folds of his trousers? Neither large nor email, with no bag ging at the knee, but falling gracefully upon his shoe they were indeed beautiful to behold. Such trousers were not sim ply doe to the tailor’s art. They showed his natural affinity for trousers, and while the experiment might have been attended with danger, there is, nererthe- leee, a strong probability that Mr. Ar thur would have made a pair of Bowery "hand-me-downs” look quite respectable. Of all the presidents of modem times he was the best clothed as to his nether garments. Hie great predecessor, Gen. Garfield, achieved trousers. His tailor was good, the cloth was in good taste, but the wearer gave Uttle attention to the mat ter, and even appeared in public once in trousers frayed at the heel. Hayes' trousers were barely respectable, while Gen. Grant was utterly indifferent to hie. Trousers were thrust upon him. Be really had no taste for them. President Harrison’s trousers are re spectable and good always, bnt they are foil of wrinkles and of so conservative a color as to be nonentities in the trouser world, and President Cleveland's legs were incased in broadcloth of a stiffness and newness of appearance that showed a woeful subordination of the wearer to the tender mercies of the tailor. Tlds is a fata) mistake. A man’s trousers shouljl show the combined thought of the wearer aud the tailor. Neither can accomplish them successfully alone. Kwl Estate Deal. Real estate trade is ploking up, and ie much brisker than it has been for some time. Several trades of some Impor tance have trabsplred this week, and: others of great size are said to be on) tapis. A mericus real estate 1* always' desirable the people here and else- whert appreciate this fact A Mew Finn. Messrs. G. W. Brunner A C. C. Mlnter have formed a partnership, and have be gun business as merchandise broken. Both are well up in business affairs, and are enterprising and industrious. The new firm will doubtless meet with much success. We keep the heal Paint we can get. If not satisfactory when put on we will repaint the house at our expense. EL J, Kld.hidoz, Druggist. Mammies Mud"Muhamiurctan«. One night I visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the purpose of exam ining somn oi the antiques exhibited there, and 1 took a look at the mummied cats, in which my little son, who was with me. is especially interested. Very solemn and ghastly are the swathe-l and silent tabbies, who perhaps gamboled around the feet of Moses and of Pba tuoh'e daughter, and it struck me in looking at them'that the Egyptians of 8,000 years ago were a little ahead of tbe Mow York of today in their devotion to birds and quadrupeds. Something of this veneration for the brute creation has been transmitted to the Mohammedan of the east, who per mit! neither cats nor dogs to be slain, but provides meals and quarters for them. A learned pundit of that persua sion once expressed to the late 8. & Cox, when minister to Turkey, his surprise that a Society for the Prevention of Cru elty to Animals should be needed in a Christian country. Our brilliant “Sun set” wss not usually at a leas for words either to conceal or express an idea, but on this occasion he oonfasrod that he was rented by the unspeeksbls Turk, and had to take refuge in the assertion that this was the work of the Blavateky sect of Buddhists. It is just possible that the gentle Turk believed him, but Mr. Cox was always of the opinion that he did not—New York Letter. Selling Tobacco la Dsavlll*. It is an interesting sight to see the hundreds of covered tobacco ' wagon* come to market Large ware houses are ready to offer every inducement to farm er* to *ell their load. Driveway* lead to the great floors where tbe load i* as sorted in piles according to grade, hav ing been weighed first while on the truck. Each pile ie tagged with the name of the owner and the weight, with a place for the buyer’s name and price. Many farmers remain over night, for they arrive at all hoars of the day and night- Free stables and other ordi nary comforts are provided. There are ten ware houses in Danville, N. C. They are divided into two aeries of five each, and public sales are con ducted in two at the earns time. Under the direction of the Tobacco Exchange the orderof sales is arranged. Placard* are posted at different points, “First sale at Neal’s,” “Second sale at Acne’s,” and so on, each ware house taking its assigned turn until all five have sold out—first to day, the last to-morrow. Each ware house has its own auctioneer, clerks, and most of the firms buying having two sets of buyers to attend on the two circuits.—Cor. Washington Post CompreMod Air Torpedo. Still another torpedo, this one the in vention of an Austrian count Buona- corsi by name, has made its appearance in the European naval and military world. According to official and private reports of the trials of this instrument they were eminently successful, giving results superior even to those obtained from the Whitehead. The motive power is compressed air, acting directly from a reservoir upon the propeller without any assistance or intervention from machin ery. The propulsion is effected by twin screw* working inversely and giving a velocity greater and more continuous, it is contended, than any obtained in other torpedoes. One remarkable feature of this invention is the faculty of auto matic guidance, which enablea it to avoid protective nets and shields, and to dive any distance before rising to give its blow.—Exchange.

Dear Sir—This is to certify that I was a sufferer with a place on my under- lip for fourteen years, and was under treatment of different physlolans, but they done me no good.
