The scheme of the entertainment was a drawing contest. Not only was judgment passed upon the ar tistic talent of the drawer but each one present guessed what the pic ture drawu represented.

TRADE with us and we will save you money. E. SPERLING, W AYNE6BORO, GEORGIA, My what a difference. Ten months ago you started out full ot hopes and good resolutions. Your resolu tions were soon gone, but your hopes wer8 great and prospects were fine. You planted for ten bales of cotton to the plow, which you expected to get 10 cents per pound for. Six hundred dollars for your cotton crop to say nothing of corn, peas, potatoes, watermelons aud other small crops. In other words j’ou thought you would make some thing like fifty “rocks” per month, besides having most cf your pro visions at home. No wonder you were light-hearted and whistled merrily as you stepped lightly be hind the plow that turned tbe fer tile soil that was so sure to bring you in such a handsome income. That’s what made you sing— “Got no money but I will have some.” But there was no use of a man doing so well, stinting himself and family, when you could get what you wanted and pay for it when you sold your cotton. So you went to town and told the merchant how much cotton you were planting and how much cotton you expected to make. The merchant drew up a little paper, got you to sign it, and then you could get anything you wanted just like you had the money. And you bought some things that you could have done without, but you wanted it and knew you could pay for it and you got it. But alas for you, it all went on the book oi fate with another 25 per cent, on the regular cash price. And now your crop is gathered and your prospective ten bales has come short by three bales and the ex pected 10 cents per pound is off 25 per cent and your other crops are short. In fact everything seems to be shrunk up except your account and that is twice as much as you thought it was, and you bnd your little cotton |crop hardly equal to the emergency, to say nothing of the new buggy and nice furniture and a hundred and one other things that you had planned to get to make your wife and children hap py. Thus your hopes that budded so brightly with the leaves in the spring have also faded and fallen with them, and you find yourself with just a little money and a lot of of experience, both of which will greatly benefit you it you will use them in the right way It is not the man that makes the most mon ey that succeeds, but the one that knows how to spend it. Be sure you spend each penny where It will buy the biggest values. The Cash Concern submits to you a few prices to consider before you buy, and if after careful comparison you find that you can beat them we advise you to do it, but if you can’t find better values for the money we will greatly appreciate your patron age. We want to show you what we will do. It is an easy matter to say, “we are the leaders of low prices,” “we make quick sales and small profits.” These old time-worn sayings are as apt to come from tbe lips of some old hundred per center as any. one else. We give prices in plain figures and leave you to say wheth er or not we are the people that can save you money: 5 4 Table Oil Cloths in fancy col ors, 15c per yd 5 4 Table Oil Cloth pure white and very heavy, 17>£c.
