A more favorable location could not be desired. It is convenient to the busy public and at the same time a suitable place for ladies who love to eat when hun gry. The eating room is as neat as a parlor and the kitchen a mod el hygenic science. The grocery department carries a line of goods that can lessen the housekeepers labor. Mr. Suggs is a public spirited man and his generosity proves him in sympathy with every good cause. On Nov. 22 ult. he gave the entire preceeds of an oyster supper, which amounted to .$50.25, to the baptist ladies for the bene fit of the Church Improvement Fund and at their last meeting they voted Mr. and Mrs. Suggs a resolution of thanks. Such a ben efactor is meeting with the appre ciation he merits and the patron age he deserves. By order of the Pres.
