"AN EPISTLE."
To the People of Bastrop County:
We ask permission to direct your atten-
jTl to to a lew facts that should interest you:
' -y T. A. HASLER & CO., haye been do-
• t H business in Bastrop, as a firm, ior at>out
* TWENTY YEARS; they have built up a
safe trade, which is shown by the nnniber
of orders given for the different lines of
merchandise, and the amount of goods sold.
How satisfactory has been our business,
and how fair and how pleasant has been
our dealings and intercourse with patrons,
ask them—their continued patronage is cer-
tainly very flatering to us and our business.
While we are in business for the profit
there is in the business, and do net pretend
to sell goods for the fun of it, yet we mark
everything down and sell our goods for a
living profit, giving to customers such low
figures as will not only induce them to buy
but hold them as permanent customers.
In the DRY GOODS and in the DRESS
GOODS lines, we cannot be excelled, either
in quality of goods, or in the price.
In the BOOT and SHOE lines we offer
bargains that cannot fail to please.
In the CLOTHING department, our stock
is well selected, and having been bought
at low figures, will be sold at a bargain.
In the FURNITURE department, you
will find well selected lines, all of which
will be sold very cheap.
In the STOVE department, we carry
the best make, and purchasing by the car
load, can SELL LOW DOWN.
In SEWINM MACHINES, w,- currv the -DAVIS'^
and tine " HOUSEHOLD." Also, keei in stock, all
th« Attachments, Needles, etc., belonging to this, or
other make of Machines.
WE CARRY THE VERY HE8T MAKE OF

Then Mrs. Spinner lirought forth

sent her compliments to Mr Mad

Mr Muddler came at oncc. He

Now, Captain Spinner had never
1 said "shiver my tltnliers" or called

j no one's attention was called to that

my father made no objection to a se

where we heard tho three legged

Mr Muddier always attended these
meetings, but my father did not ask
him at other times. He was a mere
youth in those days, but I did not
like him either, so he gait ed no foot

added, "the sooner wo part tho bet

Tho end of all this was that the
next day 1 took Imitl'd near tho col
lege and begun to think seriously of !
the future, since probably 1 should
hiivo only my prol'i-ssioii to de|suid
on when I came of age.
In a mouth 1 heard that I he day-
was set for my stepmother's wed-
ding She bail insist**! on waiting a
year and one week after the date of
her widowhood before she changed
her name.
Maddler went it I h u t smirking arm
in arm with Ins great friend. Mr.
Tucker, From Ins spruce apfiear
aiice I fancied that my stepmother
had already lieen generous to him
And so my father'M money was to
pass from me, for I should refuse to
cuter into any legal <■ 11tlu-t, and the
foolish woman who bad Is-en so
good to me oiico would end her days
miserably.
If tho ground had o|smt*l and
swallowed Mr. Maddler, or an evil
spirit carried him up chimney, 1 do
not deny that 1 should have re.joici*!
thereat, but nothing happened
Time went on.
The last week of my stepmother's
Ii had arrived, and she had
bloomed out in colors suiti*! lo lici
idea of her well preserved lieanty
and wore costumes unsuitable to any
but a girl in her early teens
One day I saw her coming up the
street thus attired and stood still ti
look al her
In past days my stepmother bad
bad a certain dignity aliout her pros
etice that liecame her age Now she
remiudiMl me of the clown in tl
cus dressed in female attire and pre
tending to flirt with the ringmaster
Her very high heels and very short
skirts had much to do with it, tin
cut of her gown more
It was at the time when "Dolly |

foulard brightest pink The jaunty
hat had roses in it We had In-en

still Imre my father's name A sens-
of shame crept over me, and I w;is j
about to turn away when one ot;
those April showers not so common
now, tl seems to me, as they were
then came suddenly ii|K n us.
The elderly butterfly bad only a
white parasol with pink fringe with |
which to protect herself from tin 1
wild torrents of rain Klovutiug this, j
she began to run Her lutrli heels l -
' trayed her. and tdie slipped, fell Hat
and lay ii|mti the sidewalk, evidently
unable to ri-e
I w.e. not brute enough to leave bet
thus Hastening to her aid, I found
that she bad spriiiiust her ankle and
| broken her parasol, crusln*l her Iioii

She was wts'pmg bitterly and was a

"So it has," said Maddler. "C'ouio

We were alone again, my step

was white as a ghost

see if I could 1st of any use, but it
was not until twilight fell that my
stepmother sent for me
"Hotter; I asked kiuilly as I en

"Yes, Tom," she answered ipiiti
in her uhl way, "uud very thankful
I think good spirits you |s>or pa
