I sorter thought I’d speak my mind next time I went to see Maria, but—they’ll never make an ora- tor o’ me! For every time I struck a word I’d sor- ter choke an’ cough, An’ that’s why I can’t tell you when the weddin’s comin’ off! I looked at her ‘a-settin’ by the fire ~plazin’ bright— Her cheeks like two red roses an’ her eyes like lakes o’ light, An’ I think I said ’twas snowin’— kinder keerless like an’ free, An’ that’s why I can’t tell you when the weddin’ is to be! The quiet—it got painful; you could hear a feather fall ; We was ’bout as interestin’ as the shad- ders on the wall ; But at last I said: “Maria!” an’ she turned an’ looked at me, An’ that’s why I can’t tell you when the weddin’ is to be! I’m good at campaign speeches, an’ I always win my race; Kin speak my mind in meetin’ an’ sing “Amazin’ Grace !” But when Maria’s by my side I lose my pedigree. An’ that’s why I can’t tell you when the weddin’ is to be! If women didn’t look so sweet, an’ didn’t keep so still, P’raps ’twould come as easy as rollin’ down a hill; But when I say: “Maria !” she’s shore to look at me. An, that’s why I can’t ,tell you when the weddin’ is to be! OFFICE OF THE EquitaBLeE NaTIoNaL Bank, ) Crncrnnati, Jan, 9, 1894. 5 Hon. John M. Pattison. President Union Central Life Insurnnce Co., Cincinnati, O. Dear Sir :—I take pleasure in ac- knowledging receipt this day through E. W. Jewell, your General Agent in this city, of $10,327.68, in payment of policy No. 9,928 mm your company. I wish to express to you my hearty thanks. My policy was for $10,000.00 andon your Life Rate Endowment Plan I paid you but the Ordinary Life, Pre- mium, just the same as I would have paid any of the other leading companies for a policy to be paid only at death, and yet your profits have been so large that in a little over 22 years it has ma- tured for an amount over the $10,000, and thus I have an Endowment Policy at Ordinary Life Rates. I am greatly pleased at my good for- tune. No other company known to nie gives such a contract or secures such results. I carry policies in a number of the leading companies, but I have none whose results compare with this. Tam glad that my own city of Cin- cimati is the home of such an_ institu- tion as the Umon Central Life Insur- ance Cofhpany, and as acitizen I am proud of it, Jam. Yours respectfully, GEORGE FISHER. The policy contracts of the Union Central Life Insurance company are attracting a great deal of attention as well as the unequaled results for the insured arising from our interest rate, which is the largest of any company, and from our death rate, which is the smallest of any company. Write for explanation for a policy on your life, stating age. Wuite & Spercut, Agents. The “Southern Leader,” still holsd {the lead as the best. 5 coat! ‘shaoke, anveed.

SRE ORE Through a letter to the RerLECTOR from Winterville we learn of an out- rageous assault upon Elder Fred Me- Lawhorn on Saturday night. After he had retired somebody knocked at his door. He got up and upon opening the door was knocked down and drag- ged our into the yard where he was beaten into insensibility. The letter gave no further particulars. Frem another souree we hear that Mr. McLawhorn while speaking of the assult on Sunday, said he did not know who the assailant was or whether more than one assaulted him. The first blow atthe door stunned him, and when he regained consciousness he was on his bed and a fire had been kindled in the flre-place. He did not know how he got on the bed or who made the - fire. Mrs. McLawhorn was away from home visiting a daughter at the time, and two other daughters were asleep in an- aroused by the disturbance and knew nothing of it until next morning. Our informant said Mr.McLawhornalso stat ed that he had had no trouble with any one to provoke such on assault, unless it was some words he had with a hand on his farm, Saturday evening, because the hand was cruelly kicking a horse. This was a dastardly crime, calling a citizen from his bed in the dead hours of night and beating him into uncon- sciousness. If caught the assailants should be punished severely. Pitt county ought to have some blood character. Elder McLawhorn is a minister of the Free Will Baptist church, and was one of the Representatives from this county in the wegislature of 1893. DON’T BE TARDY. eed Danger in Bemg Too Slow to Act on Important Matters. eens aerate It becomes more evident everyday that Greenville should have a Board of Trade. In last week’s issues ot the Re- FLECTOR there were enough enterprises | oj suggested to give the town a great for- ward impetus if there was the proper effort to take hold of them and push them to completion. There should be a Board of Trade to take such matters in hand and see that the necessary in-| 4 ducements are held out to capitalists | 4 who can be secured to come here. These things are worth giving atten- tion to and the town is losing opportun- ities by delay. A $300,000 cotton fac- tory and large tobacco stemmeries ae not enterprises that can be picked up any day, and while there is a chance of securing them the opportunity should be embraced. Can’t the business men leave their individual work long enough to give a few hours attention to such matters as will do so much for the gen- eral advancement of the town ? Wanted. The other day I saw in a newspaper a notice which I think ought to be read with care, and then tucked away in the memory, Here it is. | &Wanted—In one hmun.dred thousand households in: America, a willing, sun- shiny daughter who will not fret when asked to wipe the dishes, or sigh when reqested to take care of the baby 5 a’ daughter whose chief delight it is to smooth away her, mother's wrinkles, her father’s cares as his ~ pocket; a girl who thinks her brother, quite as ‘er.
