In rummaging around our stock we
found a lot of winter goods that we
bought too much of and they must be
sold in the next 30 days regardless of
cost, and we put them at a price that
will move them.
In rummaging among a list of sev
e.al hundred thousand articles from
two of the largest wholesale houses in
New York and Baltimore we selected
from their leaders a great many items
o! shoes, clothing, dry goods, notions,
household and kitchen goods at 50c to
75c on the dollar for spot cash, and
now will put them in this sale at the
lowest prices ever known in Carters
ville for such goods. Then we bought
from one of the largest wholesale dry
goods and notion houses in Atlanta a
full line of samples of every thing
they carry, consisting of several thous
and samples of notions of all kinds,
underwear of all kinds for men, wo
men and children, and hundreds of
over garments for everybody to wear.
All these samples were bought at a
price that will allow us to sell every

or. average of two-thirds what you pay
for them elsewhere. All these things

of them have just been reduced in
price on account of the new tariff laws
just gone into effect, which reduced
the price of so many articles that you
have to buy every day. We can’t pub
lish the price of everything, as there
are so many, but only give a few pric
es that are a fair sample of prices that
will prevail.

Today three months ago I was taken

of all the patients here, giving name,
rank, company, liegiment and date and
place of capture. Every one believes
this to be preparatory to paroling us
for exchange. Last night in ward B.
Lieut. Thompson 14th N. Y. Art. died
(of simple weakness and inattention)

A FAIR WARNING
One That Should Be Heeded By Car
tersville Residents.
Frequently the first sign of kidney
trouble is a slight ache or pain in the
loins. Neglect of this warning makes
the way easy for more serious troub
les—dropsy, gravel, Bright’s disease.
’Tis well to pay attention to the first
sign. Weak kidneys generally grow
weaker and delay is often dangerous.
Residents of this locality place reli
ance in Dohn’s Kidney Pills. This
tested remedy has been used in kid
ney trouble over 50 years—is recom
mended all over the civilized world.
Read the following:
Mrs. Frank C. Sangos, 307 Cherokee
St, Marietta, Ga., says: “I publicly
testified to the merit of Doan’s Kid
I'.ey Pills some years ago and I can
again endorse them today. The great
benefit one of my family got from
this remedy has been permanent, but
Doan’s Kidney Pills are still taken as
a kidney tonic.” /

school, under the able management of
Mr. J. T. McEntire, has greatly im

are determined to have a good school.
In evidence of this they supplement
materially the county fund and thus
secure better teachers. The school
house was painted anew last summer
and many improvements have been
made.
So under such conditions the teach

their first visit to Linwood.

Suggestions For Teaching Household
Arts and Agriculture.
In the past few days a pamphlet en
titled ‘‘Suggestions for Teaching
Household Arts and Agriculture” has
been sent out to the teachers to aid
them in their work.
For many years we have urged the
teachers to give instruction along this
line but we have failed to put into
their hands definite ideals of what we
wanted taught. This pamphlet should
be carefully studied by each teacher
aid some of the valuable suggestions
contained therein put into practice in
their schools.
The chapter, on agriculture fills a
great need in our schools. Although
we have been required to teach agri
culture in the schools we have not
been provided with suitable text bnt
with these suggestions each teacher
should he able to do some really tell-

ing work in this very important sub
ject.
The County Superintendent wishes
t < commend to your careful reading
the chapter on sanitation and urge
with all the force possible, the observ
ance of at least some of the suggest
ions outlined. In all it is a valuable,
useful addition to the teacher's helps
but like all things of its kind its good
will only be manifested by the using.
A Splendid Example.
Miss Annie Worley, the energetic
teacher of Oak Hill school, gave a
bex supper at the close of the school
fer the holidays. A nice sum was rea
lized.
A few days ago a trustee called at
the Superintendent’s office and pur
chased chalk, erasers, a closed water
3ar and enough floor oil to cover the
floors.
This certainly was a wise expendi
ture of funds. This is Miss Worley’ i
first attempt at teaching, but in this
particular she is leading the county.
No Relief in Sight.
Although we had the largest Decem
ber enrollment in the history of the
county by 200, still there seems to be
no end to the congestion in our
schools. Twelve schools that have
never called for assistants before, have
asked for additional teachers now.
What we are to do with this situa
tion is more than we can say. With
14 calls on the Superintendent’s desk
for teachers and only seven people In
the county who are not employed and
who hold license and the salary so low
wo can not import any teachers, we
are at a loss to know what to do.
We will do our best to handle the
situation but we ask for a little con
sideration of the difficulties we are
up against.
January Meeting of Board of Educa
tion.
The regular monthly meeting of the
Board of Education was held January
13th. The following members were
present: J. C. Herring, W. A. Chunn,
t>. C. Bradford and W. A. Dodd.
The day was taken up almost en
tirely considering the financitl re
port of the Superintendent for 1913
and the arranging to relieve the con
gestion in the schools over the county.
It is believed that by next week all
the calls for additional teachers will
be answered but the crowded condi
tion cannot be handled with present
appropriation.
The monthly budget was approve!
for the sum of $2,576.38 of whicn
amount $2,092 was for white teacher ,
SIOO for colored teachers, $l2O for in
terest and the remainder for adminis
tration equipment and supplies.
Arrangements were made to pay th;
teachers by the 20th of this montu
even though the state failed to pay.
An effirt will be made to have the
checks reach the teachers by th :t
date.
Mr. Morton a trustee of the Linwood
school extended a most cordial invi
tation to the entire board to attend
the meeting of the Teachers’ Associa
tion to be held at their school Jaunary

Deafness Cannot Be CurecL
b> local applications, as they cannot reach tht
diseased portion of the ear. There Is only out
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a
Tumbling sound or imperfect hearing, unT when
it Is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of 1
ten are caused by Catarrh, which 1s nothing but
nn Inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case
