Our Prize Offer!
A GOLD WATCH !
A SET OF CHINA !
In order to collect subscrip
tion to The Sun at once, we
have decided to offer the follow
ing prizes:
One handsome Gold Watch,
with a 15-year guarantee, worth
$20,00. It is a beauty !
One set of China, handsome
ly decorated, that will gladden
the heart of some good house
wife. This is a SIG.OO set.
Two years ago we gave away
a $40.00 Davis Sewing Machine,
and Mr. B. A. Teasley, of Bio,
was the lucky man who held the
number that got the machine.
OUR PLAN.
There will be numbers from
Ito 1,000; the subscriber will
select any one of these numbers
that is not taken when he pays
his dollar. We give him a re
ceipt bearing the number select
ed. A committee of three of
Hartwell’s most honorable citi
zens have selected two numbers
that will get these prizes, sealed
them up in an envelope, and
the cashier has locked them up
in the safe of The Farmers’ &
Merchants’ Bank of Hartwell.
The Sun has no more idea of
which are the lucky numbers
than the subscribers.
This is no fraudulent lottery
business, but simply a gift from
The Sun to the subscribers, as
you do not pay one cent for the
present,—just simply pay your
subscription up to The Sun.
If you pay $2.00 it entitles
you to two chances at the watch
and china set.
New subscribers will have the
same chance at the prizes that
the old subscribers have. So
now is your time to subscribe
and stand a chance of getting a
gold watch and a beautiful set
of china.
Do not delay, but come at
once. We want to be able to
give these presents away by the
middle of October next.
Respectfully,
J. H. & J. T. MAGILL,
Pubs. The Sun.

And See Every
thing that is New
; and in Good Taste
for Ladies' Wear.
Our Miss Annie Jones has
just returned from “Baltimore.,
where she has been for the past
month giving her personal at
tention to the selection of Fall
and Winter Millinery and Dress
Goods for our Ladies’ Store, and
we arc now opening up our
large line of ravishingly lovely
Pattern Hats and Trimmed
Hats. Beautiful line of new
shapes and everything new and
stylish in trimming. In fact
our customers may be assured
that we have everything to be
desired in Millinery and Dress
Goods. New goods coming in
every day. We have been too
busily engaged to get up an ad.,
but you may look out for it next
week. Come and inspect the
lovely things we have for you,
and then you will have no rea
son to be disappointed.
MISS MATTIE JONES.
A. N. Alford has just received
100 doz. of the Famous “Shaw
Knit” Hosiery for men, boys
and children. There is no
Stockings on earth that will
out-wear the “Shaw Knit.”
We have the assurance of sev
eral disinterested parties that
these Stockings will wear twice
as long as any other Stocking,
for the same cost, on the market.
A Few General Beinarks.
As cotton is so much earlier
than usual, nearly every farmer
has sold some and people have
cash to pay as they go now.
This helps cash trade and we
are benefitted to that extent.
We have no right to demand
payment on accounts not due ;
but on all such we are allowing
LIBERAL DISCOUNTS.
A customer making a good
payment on an account not due,
this week, remarked that he
liked to pay before being told
that his account was due.
We certainly appreciate such
promptness and reward it.
We dislike to ask early pay
ments as a favor to us. but
would esteem greatly all such
as acts of real kindness and
friendship. Try us and see if
we don’t show our appreciation
in a substantial way.
We are not just establishing
ourselves here, but date back to
the beginning of Hartwell. It
will not be our fault if we are
not here at the wind up.
We do not mean to let any
body out clever us. Let us
know if we fail in any particu
lar. Come early and often.
E. B. Benson & Son.

A decided departure from the us
ual way of doing business was seen
in our city Wednesday, when the
mammoth stock of W. E. & L. E.
Meredith was displayed for their fail
opening. The artistic manner in
whicli their dress fabrics, millinery
and millinery trimmings which are
of every fad and fashion, were ar
ranged and displayed, blending in
such beautiful harmony as to excite
| exclamations of admiration from the
host of ladies that thronged their
store from the beginning to the close
of the opening, won for them a place
with that galaxy of merchants that
do things in the most up-to-date
manner. The ladies of our city who
have had the opportunity of seeing
the season openings of the leading dry
goods houses in the larger cities were
astonished to see one of our own dry
goods establishments, which of
course, has fewer advantages in ar
ranging for such occasions, measur
ing up to, and even surpassing the
openings had in the great trade cen
ters of the country. The success that
was won in this undertaking of these
enterprising gentlemen is only the
Hower and fruitage of tact, taste, en
ergy, enterprise, and sound bus
iness discrimination. Each year a
representative from this' firm visits
the large cities of the east and north,
and gives his personal attention to
the selection and purchase of every
piece of goods in this stuck, and it is
by virtue of their experience in these
tilings that they are enabled to pre
sent to the la lies of this section a dis
play that is only equaled by those to
be seen in our largest cities. In every
particular their fall opening was a
gratifying success.
Croup
Usually begins with the symptoms
of a cold; there is chilliness, sneez
ing, sore throat, hot skin, quick
pulse, hoarseness and impeded res
piration- Give frequent -m>ll doses
of Ballard’s Horehound Syrup (the
child will cry for it) and at the first
sign of a croupy cough, apply fre
quently Ballard’s Snow Liniment ex
ternally to the throat. 50c at E. B,

In the primary election held in
South Carolina last Tuesday, Hon.
John T. Sloan, of Columbia, S. C.,
was elected Lieutenant Governor by
a large majority. Tins race was
watched with interest by reason of
the fact of his relatives in Hartwell,
having been a nephew of the late la
mented, Hon. John B. Benson.

under the torment of neuralgia, when
every nerve in face or limb throbs
and jumps. Philosophy cannot en
dure this agony but Perry Davis’
Painkiller relieves it. Bathe the
affected parts freely, keep them warm
and do not expose yourself to cold
and dampness. Medical science
marches right along, tut it has not
found the equal of Painkiller in the
treatment of neuralgia.
