part of his oration which deals with
the charge made by Hon. R, G. Dick

prefer to see negroes in office than to
see silver men gain a victory in that
election,” he became very angry and
said it was a “damned lie.” Then
picking up the letter referred to by
Mr. Dickerson he read words which

Brad Watson is perhaps the best
known merchant of Waycross. He
can well he called the Merchant Prince
of the Magic City.
A few years ago this young man
was a common salesman for Frank
Owens. Later he formed a partner
ship with Owens and opened a small
stock of dry goods. By thrift, economy
and advertising he soon built up an
extensive business and bought out
Owens’ interest in the business. The
business continued to grow and is now
one of the biggest and busiest dry
goods and shoe stores in Waycross,
Mr. Watson’s stoeu consists of $35,-
000 worth of dry goods and shoes.
His new Fall and Winter stocK has
just arrived.
Mr Watson knows how to buy goods,
how to display them in his store and
how to advertise them in a way to get
people to visit his store. Besides the
goods sold over his counters he does
an extensive mail oder business.
The editor of the Breeze knows Mr.
Watson and unhesitatingly recom
mends him to the good people of Cof
fee county.

AYBR’S AGUE CURE. It is the
one certain and infallible cure for
that depleting disease. It has been
tried in many countries and under
various conditions, and has never
been known to fail. An old veteran
writes:—
“Yon may be Interested to know my ex
perience many voars ago with Ayer’s Ague
Cure. The year before the war I was in
Kansas, Some twenty of ns were engaged to
fanning, and suddenly all were taken with
fever and ague. Tfe tried almost everything
w theut getting any help, till at last I sent to
the city and procured a bottle of Ayer’s Ague
Cure. I recovered at once. The others fol
lowed my example, and they, too, recovered.
Every one in camp took the remedy and was
cured hy it. I went all through the war,
have lived in thirteen ditf&rsat states of the
Union, and have never had the ague since."
