ASBORTTAU' It is not our intention to sermon ize. If you attend church Sunday, as you should, you, no doubt, had enough of that; but we wish to spea’: of a few matters that appertain to the things of this world. You recall that last week we spoke of “Ball’s and Kabo Corsets,” “Hair Oint raents” and “Handkerchiefs.” Well, you would have been surprised to see these articles just take wings and sail out of our front door. If we hadn’t had a good full stock we couldn’t have met the demands, but then it is no trouble to make sales when you have a Hist quality article that you are selling at a second rate price, such things sell themselves, as the French say, or may be it’s the Dutch that say that, but no differ ence. Now this week we want to speak of a line of goods much more inter esting to our charming lady friends, and for which we boldly claim a clear ascendancy over our competi tors in this city. We refer to Ladies’ and Children’s Underwear. We have these goods in the greatest profusion, both in design and quality—Muslin and < ambric—and all imported from that quaint little city of New York. The city isn't much larger than Brunswick, but it is the great mar ket of the world for this sort of goods. But to return to the subject, we| will be delighted to show you these goods trimmed with Embroideries and Laces. 4nd then our Spanish and Van Dyke Laces are simply ravishing. When we speak of anything “Spanish” our soul is at once drowned in a vision of dark, waving hair and melting An dalusian eyes. We know you cannot look upon these goods without some buck emotions. We want to direct your attention particularly to the beautiful designs in Van Dyke Laces in Black. White and Cream. I’jLiis mil —(o) J. WEINBERG, Proprio tor» NO ELECTRIC BELLS THERE. I The Primitive Method of Calling Serv ant* at a Sulphur Springs Hotel. Think of a grand hotel where the room numlters run as high as 799 being without an elevator! It is easier to elimb Prospect mountain back of the Colonnade row of cottages than it is to mount the various stairways to the top floor Perhaps some time in the near future there will be further concessions to the spirit of modem improvement. The field exists. Hero is a hotel with a parlor half as large again as the east room of the White House. It has a i long dining room, with two rows of columns. If you stand nt one end and shout you can’t be beard at the other. Twelve hundred people can sit down to the 150 tables without any sense of crowding. This hotel covers more than an acre of ground. It doesn’t contain a bathroom. It has no annunciator. Some day the guest may be able to press a buttou and make his existence known to the office a quarter of a mile away. At present the method is to open your door, stick out your head and “holler.’' To the credit of White Sulphur it can bo said that two or three “hollers’’ will usually do. The servant system is peculiar to White Sulphur. It works as satisfac torily as such a system can. Southern ers like it, for it reminds them of old times Northerners do not object so long as the charm of novelty wears. To every hallway in the big hotel are assigned a floor man and a couple of cliambermaids. They are not (H-rt. They are colored men and women who learned the ways of faithfulness and politeness when there was SSOO differ ence between a house servant and a field hand in “Virginuy.” Most of these servants had “ben a-comin' to ole White, sab, sence befo’ the wall.” They their little rooms |»irtitioned off at the ends of the halls or across the stairway landing, and there they Live and sleep so as to respond prompt ly to the calls of guests. If my young lady, coming up from the ballroom at fifteen minutes before midnight, thinks of some message she wants to give the chambermaid, she taps with her hand on the door knob and calls: "Lucy 1” A pause. “Lu cyl" This time a lit tle louder, and another pause. Then again, “Oh, Lucy!" From down the hall comes by this time the sleepy reply: • ‘ Ya-as’m. 1 'se coinin’. ” There is a shuffling of feet along the hallway matting, and then a conversa tion hi a low tone. The voice of file belle says a little louder at the close: * ‘ Remember, Lucy I ” The voice of the chambermaid re plies. “Ya-as’m.” The door closes. The shuttling sound i passes back down the hall and dies away. Fifteen or twenty people in ad jacent rooms turn over in bed and try to go to sleep again. Nobody thinks of kicking. It is only one of the White Sulphur ways.—Sulphur Springs Cor. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. A Lightning Episode. A colored man, about 40 years of age, entered police headquarters yes terday with his head tied up and said to the sergeant: “Boss, I want your opinyun. Look at dis head an’ tell me what you think of it." “I think somebody gave you a pretty good whack with a club,” replied Hlie officer. “Was it a club?” “It was a weapon of some sort.” “Wasn’t I hit by lightning?” “Lightning? No." “Wasn’t Ixit by lightning las’ nite?” “How could you be, when there was no thunder storm last night?” “'Zactly—’zactly. Dat's all.” “How did you get it?” “Woke up dis mawnin’ wid de ole woman standin’ ober de bed. She laid It on to de lightnin’, but de mo’ I think de mo’ I didn’t believq it. I’ze suah now." “And you” “Well, I’ze gwine homo to make de biggest thunder sto’m you eber heard toll of. An’ if de lightnin’ doan’ strike mighty clus to my house at least a dozen times den I won't say a word when de patrol wagin comes!”—Detroit Free Press. John Fiske. It is a curious fact and one not wide ly known of John Fiske, the writer, ! that lus real name is not John Fiske at all, but Edmund Fiske Green. He was born in Hartford, Conn., forty eight years ago, the only child of Ed mund and Mary Fiske Green. While yet a mere boy his father died, and three years later' Mrs. Green married the Hou. Edwin W. Stoughton, United" States minister to Russia. Up to this time the lad had been known as Ed mund Fiske Green, but after this, for some reason of his own, he dropped his father's family name, retaining that of j his mother, Fiske, and adopted in place of the baptismal “Edmund" the name of Lis maternal great-grandfather, “John." and thus he became John Fiske, a name which he has retained and honored ever since,—New York Evening Sun. \\ bore He Was Shot.

A BARBER TRIES TO BE AGREEABLE. How Hi* Pleasantries Are Taken by aCus- I turner Who Im Fall of Good Will to Men. The customer took his seat in the barber's chair full of good will to the world in general, which included, of course, the barber shop he had entered and the barber who was about to man) him. “Hair cut?” asked that worthy, and | he immediately began digging at the customer's collar l>one as only a barber can dig. while apparently adjusting the towel about his neck. “Hair getting pretty thin on top,” he continued as lie snipped his scissors through the locks. The man in the chair still retained his g*M>d will, though one of the most trying things for the ordinary man to hear is that be is showing one of the I first signs of old age —a bald head. “And no wonder, either,” continued the wielder of the scissors, “since 1 never saw a head so chock full of dandruff as your head is. It's awful.” The man talked to winced. But perhaps the fact that the shears snipped ■ uncomfortably close to his ear had I much to do with his wincing as did the barber's words. That worthy at once saw another opportunity to make him self agreeable, for he laughed pleas antly and said, “Almost clipped a piece off then, didn’t I?” “But,” he added, realizing that he was getting off | a remarkable joke, “it is of such a size that it can lose quite a large piece with out any discomfort.” The customer was conscious that his good will could not last long. The i barber, however, had started his con versation with an object, and reverted to his original remark: “Yes, all that dandruff is bound to make you bald headed in less than no time. I have just the stull that will cure you of all { that and start the growth of your hair I in its original thickness.” The customer saw that the barber— who was but human, after all—had an I object in making his personal remarks, so softened down to his former good humor. “Ah! what do I see!” exclaimed the clipper in mock horror; “a gray hair? Another one, and another one? Oh, it won’t be long before what’s left, on your head will be as white as snow. You had bettor let me sell you a con coction that will put a stop to that." The man in the chair didn’t make all the answer he was prompted to make. With a great effort he merely said, “I guess not today.” The mildness of that answer by no means showed how much of the great good will he felt to ward mankind on entering the shop had been exhausted. « “Now for a shave!” cheerfully said the man of no taet, as he readjusted the towel after having thrust, under pretence of brushing them away, sev eral clumps of cut hair down his vic tim’s back. “And I tell you you need it, too. I guess you haven't cored to see yo# best girl lately, have you.' And ho chuckled gleefully over his sally of wit. “But my,” lie went on to-say, un mindful of the clouds that were gather ing on the face before him. “What a condition your skin is in! There's no excuse for those spots all over your nose and your forehead, too! How it has been neglected I I've got just the thing for all that. One bottle will do, and if you will come in every day for the next week 1 11 make applications, and your skin will be as smooth and as fair as a baby's. What? No powder? I Nothing on your hair? Not even brush it ? Well, I declare,” as the door slam med on the receding figure, “what a cross grained cuss it is. I shouldn't have thought it. ” —New York Evening Sun. The Albert medal of the English So ciety of Arts has been awarded to Dr. W. 11. Perkin, F. F. S., “for his dis covery of the method of obtaining col oring matter from coal tar, a discovery which led to the establishment of a i new and important industry, and to the I utilization of large quantities of a previ | ously worthless material.” A pretty story comes from England about a poor shepherd who was also a geologist, geographer and an admirer of Stanley. Stanley’s publisher met tills man while walking on Beachy Head, and was charmed with his learn- j ing. The shepherd offered the publish- , era pound—pretty much all his hard earned savings—and asked if it would pay for Stanley's book, promising to send the balance of the money as soon ias possible. The publisher says the | shepherd shall receive his money back | again ami a copy of “Darkest Africa" with Stanley’s autograph in it. Elect rolibrnt ion.

In response to a call from the foreme i, the Oceanic and Defiance volunteer fire companies met last night at Defiance hall. The meeting was called to order ’ by foreman Campbell, and upon mo tion, chief Merrifield was made chairman. The S3OO which was given to Mr. Merrifield some days ago, by Mr. White andJSupt. Haines,was divided equally between the two companies. A vote of thanks to these two gentle men for the liberal donation was passed unanimously. Speeches were made by foremen Joerger and Campbell, and a com mittee of three members from each company was appointed to meet ami | have a conference for the benefit >f their organizations. After a rousing speech by Chief Merrifield, the firemen agreed to remain together ami to hold them selves ready nt all times to respond to any call of duty. Announcement was made that the Oceanics would hol<l a meeting in their hall next Tuesday night, for the transaction of very important busi ness. 'l'he meeting then adjourned.
