to my fellow-passengers.

me that she was divine in features,

something familiar about her. Where

She evidently did, however,
for she never looked up from the book
she held before her, though she knew
that I was intently watching her. But
this knowledge apparently caused her
no annoyance, for her face wore a
smile, which could not have
been provoked by the contents of her

and when a girl is hungry there is a

A Angora cat is the

able animal, developed a tendency a
few months ago to walk abroad at
night, a dissipation that previously
had been entirely foreign to the nature
of that most aristocratic feline. Every
effort of the family to keep the eat at
home failed. One night about two
weeks ago the man of the house
watched the cat as it lay asleep on a
dainty cushion in the parlor. Sud-
the oat arose and started for the

about and screamed as a human

Mr. R- P. Lindsey, of Rocky
Mount, Mr. of Oxford
and Messrs. Clark, of Lynchburg,
Ya., and Jas. N- Boyd, of Rich-
were on our breaks this
week looking after our bright
tobacco.
A days ago we heard a
prominent tobacconist remark that
if every available foot of ground
for tobacco in Eastern Car-
was planted in tobacco it
would only slightly, if at all, affect
the trade in brights, because of
the limited acreage that will grow
that kind of tobacco, and the in-
creasing demand for it.
Mr. R. R. Cotten, the most ex-
tensive tobacco former east of the
W. W. railroad, cured
this year sold a large
lot on the floor of the Eastern a
few days ago. Though this was
a sample of his common storm
struck tobacco he expressed him-
self well pleased with the
sales. If Mr. Cotton will try
Greenville with some of his good
tobacco we are he will be a
Greenville man afterward.
Mr. W. R. Home, that wide
awake and systematic farmer of
township was also with
us a few days ago. Mr. Home
says he intents beginning at
home this year and if he
to get prices he will sell
his crop here. Don't fear Billy,
we will take care of you whenever
you come. Mr. F. M.
who has been selling elsewhere
tried Greenville with a load this
week and was so well pleased that
we confidently look for him again.
He is that kind of a man, when
satisfied will say so, and vice
of those who are trying to secure
it. So we say let anything and
everything come that will be for
the benefit of the whole people,
and lets don't a stumbling
block in the way of it because
some one else will make
cents where we only get a dollar.

MACHINE BELTS OF PAPER.
This Is One of the Latest Novelties in
Paper belting for the purpose of
transmitting power is the next thing
which i going to astonish the man-
fraternity. The
inventor was for five years as-
to the superintendent of
power of of the great factories
in Lowell, Mass. It was while in
this position, in which he had much
to do with lacing and tightening
bolts that he conceived the idea that
belting made of paper could be made
better work than either leather,
rubber or cotton. He argued that
as a thick piece of paste board can iX
be made to lake on a very firm, . . .-
smooth and durable surface by
holding the same against an-
other moving surface for
minutes, that a larger piece of
paper made in the form of a belt and i
permit to run up on the surface of
a pulley day after day would soon ,
create upon its surface a firm, hard
shining coating that would last a
long time.
In making the belts, links made
from paper pulp are used. As soon
as a belt is put into working order a
hard, shining coating appears upon
the surface next the pulleys, and this
becomes harder and harder as the
should say my market is ahead
of any, but question of
doubt Greenville is leading the
eastern markets this year in the
way of high prices.
In response to our remark that
if Greenville had rail road and
