Cotton is cheap, so is clothing. Owing
to the fact that cotton is dreadfully low in
price hard and that the farmers are playing in
luck, I propose to sell my stock of
clothing at cost. My stock of clothing
was manufactured for me by Ilackett,
Carhart & Co., of New York, the largest
and best manufacturers in the United
States. All first class, nothing shoddy
in my stock; no tariff no profit, no mid¬
dleman, right from first hands. Come
and sec for yourself before buying else¬
where.
Does the Cap Fit You!
On Oct. 1st we want the money you owe
us. Wc mean just what you have read
and nothing else. We are not talking
about that other fellow either. We are
now asking you in a plain and polite
manner to pay us what you have prom¬
ised, and to save your own credit. dollar YVe
are determined to collect up every
we have out this fall and to do it at once.
So make your arrangements to pay us, if
not you will certainly be put to some
trouble. We are no more responsible and for
the low price of cotton than you arc,
if you can’t pay this fall, you can’t pay
next fall. Think how nice we have been
to you and how many times we have put
our hands in our pockets for you. Show
us now that you p>ay your debts prompt¬ down
ly. Don’t wait for us to hound you
by dunning you and make you feel had
and us too. But the money we are going well
to have. This is for the rich man as
as the poor man. white as well as black,
democrat as well as third party, don’t
matter who you are, if you owe us we
want it all when due. Let us say fur¬
ther, we will not carry over into next
year an account or note for no one. So
don’t ask it of us. If we fail to collect,
we can’t help you next year, if we do
collect we can and will help you.
Respectfully, & Ensign.
