The Troup county candidates for the legislature spoke to the people last Wednesday' night at Lloyd’s school house, six miles east of LaGrange. A good many went from LaGrange to hear the speaking, which was unusually interesting. This last week of the race is full of excitement, and the editor of The Graphic is grieving, for the first time, that a few little trifles are in the way of her voting. If we could, we’d vote early and often and leave no stone unturned until the two best candidates are safely in. Os course, everybody knows who the two best are. But if there should still be some uninformed people, The Graphic invites them to call at the office of the paper and be duly enlightened. We know as many as several things, even though we can’t vote.

This was o«r reply: that when Iwe kept a wagon and agent, $30.00 was as cheap as it canid be sold. I IWe had to invest) money in a horse and wagon and the salary of an agent is usually about $40.00. Six Machines per month is the average sales and sometimes less, and most oftem on long terms to unreliable pari ties. That’s the old way. This is our new way. We have done away with horse, wagon and man; also the long credits. We sell from the store for the CASH. Its true that when we sell this New Ideal Machine, guaranteed for five years, for $20.00, the profit is so small we can hardly see it, ’ but then we do our machine 1 business on a cash basis and can ; afford to accept small profit. Remember, too, that we sell I a ball-bearing drop-head ma -6 chine fors3o.(X). This machine is the Climax, made by the New Home Co., and guaranteed 1 for five years. W. V. GRAY.
