Thk receipts of the Government during the quarter ending- September 30. fell 519,0711.710 short of the expenditures. The beauties of Democracy grow day by day and night unto night thev are not diminished.

Pahaturase Lincoln and keep it before the people. If Americans buy S100.000.000 worth of foreign manufactures, we have the goods and they have the money. But if Americans buy 5100,000,000 worth of American manufactures, we have the goods aud the money both, and own people have employment.

Thk Democratic majority in Georgia two years ago was S1.0S1. This year it is less than 20,000. The Republicans carried one county which is a gain. This fact taken in connection with the great reduction in the Democratic majority shows that souie-time during the next century Georgia may throw oil' her political shackles. At any rate it indicates 'that dissatisfaction with Democratic rule is not contined to the Northern States.

Two prominent defections from the Democratic ranks have been made at Chicago. Hon. Lyman Trumbull has announced that he will make a Populist speech at Central Music liall in that city, while Gen. 1". 11. Winston, who was a foreign minister under Cleveland duringdiis first term aud who now holds a position under Governor Altgeld. has announced that he intends to vote the Republican ticket. The defections from Democracy extend to all staiions in life.

This year there will be three ballot boxes—red. white and yellow. The State ballots will be printed on red paper, the county ballots on white paper and the township ballots on yellow paper. The red ballots will be deposited in the red box. the white ballots in the white box, and the yellow ballots in the yellow box. The voter will take one of each into the booth where he will make one stamp on each and that stamp will be made on the square surrounding the eagle.

Thk Democratic policy has cut down the wages of the workingmen all over the country from 15 to 40 percent., threw thousands of them out of employment, brought stagnation to the business of the country, reduced the price of wool to the sheep raisers, increased the cost of sugar to the consumer. and played havoc generally. It has increased the public expenditures, decreased the amount paid pensioners, and added $50,000,000 of interest bearing bonds to the burdens of the people. These "Democratic pests" are surely sufficient without looking for more.

A CHANCE FOR A FORT INK. Farmers are buying up all the sheep they can find. Wool is advancing.—

The

takes its cue from

the speeches that are now being made by Senator Voorliees. The other day he made a speech at Jeffersonville in which he predicted that "wool would sell within two weeks at prices higher than prevailed at any time under the McKinley act." The speech came under the eye of Justice, Bateman & Co.. of Philadelphia, one of the largest firms of wool dealers in the United (States. Theodore Justice, a member of the firm, thereupon wrote a letter and addressed it to the distinguished Senator in the coi rse of which he proposed to aid him to make his fortune. Mr. Justice said:

Every wool-grower will be glad to know that there is some prospect for a check to the decline in American wool which has taken place since wool was put on the free list on the 27tli of August, for since that date the finest wool in your State, namely, Indiana merino, unwashed, has declined over 11 per cent, and the price is still dropping, and Ohio XX, which is the standard grade of American wool, has declined over 15 per cent, since wool was put on the free list, and is still going down.

Is you feel confident of your prediction that wool will "sell within two weeks at prices higher than prevailed at any time under the McKinley act' the firm of which 1 am a member can otter you an opportunity for a profitable investment in wool. They will furnish a XX Ohio, which is about the finest grade of American wool, at I*:., cents for such as sold at 30K cents on March 1, 18U3—a decline of over 30 per cent, since the McKinley law was administered by General Harrison's Administration and immediately before tariff revision was begun, aud which suldat34! cents in March, lS'Jl. immediately after the McKinley law was enacted. An advance in the pricejwithin two weeks from 18M cents to 31 cents, the highest price under the McKinley law, would be an advance of over 80 per cent., paying a profit of 5100,000 on each 1,000,000 pounds of wool bought. Here is an opportunity to make money, if your prediction is correct, which seldom occurs more than once in a lifetime, and if you desire to make the operation my firm will furnish 80 per cent, of the money required and will buy the wool for you, and you can secure as many million pounds in the markets of Philadelphia and Boston as you-will probably want, as every responsible wool dealer will be glad to take your business on the same terms.

Doubtless the same offer will hold good for the

SOPHY CLARE'S FRIGHT.

How a Plucky Little Schoolma'am Was Frightened.

A tchoohna'am in tho far west—a hardworked, scantily paid little drudge, who "boarded 'round" at the various farmhouses, log cabins and one-storied ihauties within an area of ten miles, and consequently enjoyed a panoramic view of human nature in a pleasing variety of aspects—this was not the sort of a carcor that Sophy Clare had looked forward to when she graduated with so much

edit-

from the

Massachusetts state normal school and carried off her blue-ribboned diploma' But she had come out west, lured by glittering prospects aud fair promises, which had turned into mere will-o'-the-wisps on a nearer view, and now it was either work or starve with our courageous little Yankee.

So she had taken the West Athens district school at twelve dollars a month and her board. "After all," said Sophy. .antly, "it's rather fun to teach here in the wilderness. One sees all sorts of characters 'boarding 'round.' And I'm sure, if 1 were a novelist, I could make my fortune by pen-and-ink sketches of their strong points. To be sure, It's a long- walk to the school house—and rather a lonely one—out the forest path is so lovely, now that it is all carpeted with the gold and crimson of fallen leaves, and the roar of the river in the glen below and the rush of the wind through the treetops is grander than any orchestra."

And 'uvoluntarily the little schoolteacher broke out into the refrain of a song as she walked along with light, elastic steps, her empty lunch-basket on her arm, and the scarlet-frilled hood tied around her fresh little face. For the western sun had dipped below the edge of the woods, and Sophy was on her way home to llosea Harkins. the miller's, where, just at present, she was making her homo, with Mrs. llarkius and the twelve little llarkinses—a seven-mile walk from the old, red school house on the river shore.

Hut as the twilight darkened, and the purple shadows began to cluster, like spectral figures, in the silent aisles of the woods, Sophy Clare shrank within herself, and involuntarily quickened her footsteps. "The}- shot a bear in these woods, last spring." she thought within herself, with a little apprehensive thump of her heart. "And Charles llarkius was quite sure, he saw a panther stealing through the underbrush in Dead Man's glen, only week before last! I wish I hadn't stayed in school so late, correcting those compositions'."

And as Sophy fled swiftly along, her scarlet hood gleaming like a tropic bird, through the dark aisles of the forest, her overstrained imagination converted every rustling leaf into the stealthy tread of a wild beast.

But suddenly, as she readied a copse of dark pines at the bend of the path, the sound of low, raufilcd voier-s struck upon her ears. She paused with a curious sensation, as if every drop of blood in her reins were standing still.

It was two men crouching by a fallen log which lay in the pine copse, mantled over with gold-green moss, and half hidden with tall weeds. Evidently, they were quite unaware of the approach of anyone and, as Sophy shrank back into the shadows of a black-green laurel bush, she could hear their muttered words quite plainly. "But to kill her!" said one. "And she's such a little beauty, too!" "Pshaw!" growled the other. "Don't be a fool. Hal Tucker. It's only one stroke of a sharp knife and the thing's done, and can't be undone." "But it seems so cruel!" "Stuff and nonsense! Ain't it done every day?'' "But what will the children say?" "They'll miss her. I suppose, just at first, but they'll soon get accustomed to another one." "Would you do it at night?" said the man called Hal Tucker. "To-night will be the best time." said the other. "Harkins' folks are all going out to singing school to-nlg'ut, and the coast will be clear. You have the wagon at the door to carry it away, and I'll undertake to make a clean job of It with my new knife before she has time to cry out." "I never hated to do a thing so in my life," said Hal Tucker. "The more fool you!" gruffly retorted the other. Aud then the sound of theirvolces, receding through the dense undergrowth ct the forest, grew indistinct, and finally died into silence, while Sophy Clare stood, pale and paralyzed, with one hand clinging to the laurel branches and her chestnutbrown hair blowing about her frightened face. She knew Hal Tucker very well—a good-natured, shiftless, ne'er-do-weel, who lived on the proceeds of any odd jobs h« could get in the neighborhood, and had no more idea of providing lor the future than if he had been the grasshopper in Lafont aine's fable. And the voice of '.lie other man was also familiar to hor as that of one

Jeremiah Slocum, who bore no enviable reputation among the simple settlers of those wild western regions. And, with a thrill of the heart, she rememebred that Jerry Slocum had been sitting by, the night before, when Miller Harkins, who was one of the school trustees, had paid her her month's salary in clinking silver dollars. "It's I they mean!" cried Sophy, out aloud. "They mean to murder me, and all for the sake of that wretched ptitry silver! 'One stroke of a sharp knife, and the thing's done and can't be unloue!' O merciful heaven! Can it be that* there aro such brutes in the world? 'Harkins' folks going to sing-ing-school to-night, aud the coast will be clear!' Oh, the peril I should have been in if I had not been fortunate enough to overhear those horrible words! I must hasten home at once and tell Mr. Harkins. But, oh, If I should chance to meet these ruffians on the road again 1"

She stood still and listened, but no sound greeted her ears other than the rush of the wind in the tree-tops overhead and the murmur of the river below and the wild beating of her own bAarl

"A1 all risks," she thought, "I must get home I can't stay here in tho forest all night, though perhaps the perils from wild beasts would be less than the dangers from my own kind!"

And Hying in desperate haste through the gloomy paths, where tho first faint silver rays of the starlight were beginning to irradiate the scarcely visible way, she came at last in sight of the old stone mill by the waterfall, with the long, low dwelling of the Harkins' at its side, all shining with welcome lights. "Super's b'en ready this half hour," said Ju =. Harkins, a lean, fretful female, who always wore a sunbonnet, winter or summer. Indoors or out, and shuffled around the house in flapping carpet slippers. "You're late, ain't you, Miss Clare? And, good land alive, how pale you bel" "I—I walked very fast," said Sophy, with a convulsive catohing of the breath and turning paler than ever as she saw, lounging on the wooden settle, just within the huge stone chimney, the very man whose voice she had heard half an hour ago in the twilight woods —Hal Tucker himselfl

Involuntarily she drew back, falling almost into the arms of honest Hosea Harkins himself, who had just ooine in from the mill, with his working clothes on, and his hair and eyelashes powdered over with flour. "Uel-lo!" said that worthy.! "You ain't a-goin' to faint away, be you,Miss Sophy?"

But spirit and courage had cctne back to the Y'ankee schoolma'am once again. She drew herself up and pointed to tho lurking vagabond on the wide, wooden settle. "Mr. Harkins," cried she, "you are a constable, are you not?" "Wal, I guess I be," answered the miller, staring with all his might out' of a pair of pale-blue oyes. "In that ease." said Sophy. "I call upon you to arrest that villain—that murderer!" And she pointed straight at Hal Tucker. "Eh?" said the miller, his eyes more like over-ripe gooseberries than ever. "Eh!" echoed Mr. Tucker himself, coming upright, all in a heap, like & jointed doll. "I heard hirn plotting in the woods this night," she gasped out, "with hia confederate Slocum! Let him deny it, if he dares!" "I swan to gracious, I was there!" said Hal, scratching his head. "Me and Jerry!" "Let him deny," went on Sophy, with an unconsciously tragic effect, "that he was plotting to murder—with a sharp kaife—when all the llarkinses were at singing-school to-night! Ohl

Mr. Harkins, arrest liiinl For heaven's sake, save my life! It was 1 that was to have been the victim I"

The miller stared harder than before. Hal Tucker seized his head in both hands, as if apprehensive that it might split if not safely guarded. "Hold on, Miss Clare, hold on!" said he. "You'r* cleau wrong, as it happens! "T wasn't you at all as we was goin' to murder! Good Lord above forbid! It was little Polly's pet lamb there! And the missus wanted to turn it in toward the butcher's account, and she wanted it took away on the sly, because of the children. And me and Jerry we thought It would be a good chance to-night, when they was all off to singin'-sohooL But the cat's out of the bag now, 1 reckon!"

Sophy Clare sat down on the old patchwork-covered lounge, with a burst of relieved laughter that was almost hysterical, The miller clapped his hands on his thigh with a force that surrounded him with an aureole of flour dust Mrs. Harkins smiled grimly under the shadow of the sun bonnet, and the children, one and all, set up a howl of deprecation over the face of their beloved, woolly lamb! "Mr. Tucker," said Sophy Clare, as soon as she was able to regain command over her voice, "don't take poor little Snowflake away! I will pay her value to these good people for the sake of the relief I now fael. And the children shall not lose their pet" "It's only a lamb!" said Miller Harkins, who did not know what sentiment was. "But it's the children's darling," pleaded Sophy.

And so Snowflake's life was saved, and Sophy Clare's fright all went for nothing.

But she could never pass Jeremiah Slocum afterward without a shudder. And the very sound of llal Tucker's voice, speaking in the twilight, was enough to blanch her cheek.

B'or she had been terribly frightened —poir little Sophy Clare!—Amy Randolph, in N., Y. Ledger.

THE BIG STORE.

An Epidemic Of Enthusiasm

'That's what it is. It broke out last week when we made our fall announcement and placed on sale our new fall stock at about 20 per cent less than same quality of goods were ever ollered in a regular line of merchandise. Every reader of our ad. came to see 11?. Everybody passing stopped. Some folks thought it was a mistake—h wrong placards over the goods. Others didn't stop to ask any questions, just quickly said: "I'll take eight yards of that." "Give me that pattern," etc., etc. It was not "just a bit of luck" on their part. It would not be "just luck" on your part. There is no "just luck" about our business. Everything we say, evrrything we show you as bargains are premeditated, are natural results of certain causes. Those causes are strict adherence to our business principles, viz: Close watch over the markets, careful buying thai we may not have undesirable goods to oiler, uj ing of first hands for cash selling for the very least we can, believing in the motto, "Large sales and small profits" and last but not least, thoroughly advertising our offerings, and then always having just, what we advertise. In this way we have gained the confidence and good will of almost every man, woman and child in Montgomery county and many in adjoining counties, which enables 11s to do the largest business in this section and that in lurn not only enables but compels us to buy more goods than all our competitors and we buy them cheaper. Therefore it is not "just luck" but results of sound business principles lhat enables you to buy goods of us cheaper than from any house in the county.

It Pays to Trade at the Big Store.
