CLOTHING......
■ —fit- 1 ~ 'T'he verv acme of science and art in the clothing business

Smfm signing and skill in tailoring is theirs. Many of the patterns

thereby giving an exclusiveness to their clothing which
is very valuable to their agents in these days of keen com-

Residence Burned.
Saturday last the residence of Mr.
G. W. Milner, near Zebulon, caught
fire and soon was totally destroyed,
with four other smaller houses in the
yard. Mr. Milner and Rev. J. W.
Beck went from Zebulon to the house
and built a fire. Before it was known
the house had caught it was burning
so rapidly that it was impossible to
do anything but try to save the con
tents. Only a portion of the effects
were saved and the loss was consider
able. The house was the old home
stead and about a half century ago
Mr. Milner and his wife began life to
gether there. The house was probably
more than sixty years old. There
was no insurance and the loss was
quite heavy.
Mrs. Dr. R. O. Cotter went to At
lanta yesterday where she will remain
for some time.
Mr. Frank C. Bloodworth, of At
lanta, was in the city Tuesday and

Don’t Talk So Much
Maybe you think we do. If so,
thats alright. Its our way of doing
things. You have yours, we have
ours. So far so good. Now the
question at issue is thusly devised.
Have you sowed any German millet,
or Earley Amber Sorghum cane seed,
or Earley Orange sorghum cane seed,
or fine seed corn—Golden Dent.
Don’t you think it a g®od idea to
come around to our store and see
what we have, and also see what we
are doing. It’s goober planting time
again. ' You never had none last
year. Your neighbor may be tired
of letting your chaps familiarize so
much with hie harvested crop of pin
ders. Come, now, and let us reason
together. We are not in business
tor the fun of it. W r e are business
boys, and the majority of your com
munity has found it out. Have you?
We prefer to give 170/. rather than
15oz to the pound. Do you under
stand us now? Come.
