P3xson’s Page Advertisement.
W. O. Paxson is ill the mercantile
business to stay, and commences in a
way that means success. He is using
printers ink. and very few who judi
ciously advertise fail to be successful.
Mr. Paxson has, an extensive stock,
it is new, the prices are right and he
has a man with him who understands
the mercantile business. With these i
four essentials you will see a good bus
iness built up and maintained. Mr.
Pa.xson has wisely concluded that he
needed a manager for his business and
! he secured Geo Wooten, the prince of
! good fellows and one of the best vner-
I eantile managers in Georgia. There
! is much in this, every man you meet
| is not a merchant, he can’t sell goods,
he may be good at something eise, but
! a failure as a merchant. There are
I many such men trying to sell goods,
j and they make a mistake in trying to
' be close-fisted, hard to trade with and
l displaying no enterprise. Go and see
Paxson. i
this is they are the Hamilton-Brown
Shoes, for which we are sole
agents for Waycross and Ware
county. Have you yet worn a
pair of this make? If you have,
they either give you satisfaction
or we made good any fault in the
shoe, as we positively give you a
guarantee on them that protects
you. There is only one time we
fail to make good the guarantee;
that’s when you failed to bring
them back. A guaranteed saving
of 50 per cent, on your shoe bill
annually.
