The stagnation of busiucss here in

We saw a young lady tho. other

hanging down over her forehead.
Frizzes are pretty, but a pound of

like a calabash with a coon's tail tied
around it.

the a nun eh family?
This wonderful family perfumed in
Masonic Had on Wednesday and
Thursday nights of this week. The
programme was varied and interest
ing, consisting of vocal and instru
mental music. It may bo truthfully
said that Mr. Gruber, his wife and
two little children, compose one of the
most extraordinary combinations of
musical talent in the country. We
cannot describe tho many pleasing
features of his performancos. And,
withal, ho is a native and should be
liberally patronized. Those who
have never seen the Grubcr family
should avail thcxiselve? "of the first
opportunity presented to do so.
A PHOTOGRAPHER?8 ADVICE?
Au English photographer makes
the following suggestions : "When a
lady sitting for a picture would com
pose her mouth to a bland r.nd serene
character, she should, just upou
entering the room, say 'bosom/ and
keep the expression into which the
mouth subsides Until the desired effect
in the Camera is evident. 11', on the
other b ind, she wishes to assume a
! distinguished and somewhat noble
bearing, not suggestiv*?, of sweetness,
j she should say 'brush,' the resulted j
which is infallible. If she wishes to
make her mouth I.mk small, she must
say 'ilip,' but il*Litt? mouth be already
too small anil needs enlarging, she
must say 'cabbage.' 11"she wishes to
look mourn.ul, she must say 'ker
shunk;' if iVsigno I, shj must forcibly
ejaculate 's'eat.' "

SCARCITY OF MONEY?
There is no doiibt but the present
condition of till kinds of business und
industry is ^fearfully depressed, und
it behooves every family to look care
fully to their expenses. Winter is
coming on when children are liable'
to croup, whooping cough,etc. Cough
and colds will prevail everywhere,
and consumption, with other throat
and lung diseases will carry off many.
These diseases should not be neglect
cd, Doctors bills are expensive, and
wc would advise our people to usu
Bbschco's German Syrup. Jt never
has failed. One bottle at 7-3 cent
will keep your winde family well
during the winter. Two doses wil
relieve any case. Sold in all towns in
the United States, and by your Drug
