A MESSAGE!
KIND FRIENDS:
In this, our message, for your con
sideration, we would call your atten
tion to a few things that will be of
benefit to you and helpful to us.
Wehave turned theleaf from 1901
and are now upon the page of 190& 3
What the present year has in store
for us, we can only surmise—we can
only hope and wait for results.
The year just ended was very satis
factory to us in a business way—made
many friends and customers, and some
money, for all of which we are grate
ful. We expect to put forth greater
efforts the present year, carry a much
larger stock* sell more goods to more
people, and endeavor to make a custo
mer of all who will favor us with a
call. We do not propose to sell at
cost—no reasonable person could ex
pect this—every article of commerce
has its value, and we are entitled tp a
egiltimate profit on our goods, We
give maximum values for minimum
expenditures.' 44 3BEon©st values ior
honest dollars, small profits and let
them go,” is the insigna impressed
upon the minds of our salespeople.

Cash is a mighty lever, and

ever, runs low at times, and the
purse cannot respond to all of our
demands and needs.
If you arc in this boat, come
to sec ns, we will help to tide yon
over. We want yonr trade, either
cash or credit.
Yours for business,
Saved Hint Kroin Torture.
There is no more agonizing trouble
than piles. The constant itching and
burning make life intolerable. No po
sition is comfortable. The torture is
unceasing. DeW'itt’s Witch Hazel
Salve cures piles at once. For skin
diseases, cuts, burns, bruises, ail kinds
of wounds it is unequalled. -1. S. der
ail, Kt. Paul, \rk,,says: “From 1865
I suffered with the protruding, bleeding
piles and could find nothing to help me
until I used DeW'itt’s Witch Hazel
Salve. A few boxes completely cured
me.” Beware of counterfeits.

All Aboard!
For Prosperity ! No free rides on
this route and no charity soup. But
if you get stuck on the bottom,
whet your appetite and cheer up
like the dying man who said lie
wouldn’t be lonesome for he hail
friends in both places. A fellow
who has been at the top once and
will got there again, says he has
lost everything in the world—but
his appetite. He is the fellow’for
me. He’ll do for the lift- insurance
Companies and the grocery men to
pin their faith to. Economy is a,
good thing until you'try to swal
low it. An internal application
will shorten your days.
1 want everybody wh o eats,
chews and smokes to spend any
wltere from a niekle up with me
this week and see if I don’t do the
square thing Don’t be selfish
with you trade but make friends
with everybody, then, when you
run for Mayor or from the sheriff
you’ll get elected and protected.
