GREAT REDUCTION SALE TILL JAN. 1ST, 1898.
In order to make a statemet of our business on January 1st, 1898 f we
have decided to reduce our large stock. It is easier to count dollars than
gooi Is, and for this reason we will sell tor cash low er than the lowest from
now until January 1st. We carry large and select lines in the general mer¬
cantile business and you can save money on every purchase you make of us as
above stated.
i hir business Will continue the same as heretofore. YY e are only preparing
to make a statement in order that we may begin the NEW YEAR with a full knowledge of our business

John Ruskin says. In gener
' i | no patience with peo
a i i;i \ e
pi who talk about the ‘thought
Jessness of youth’ indulgently;
1 had infintely rather hear ol
though.tless old age and of the
indulgence due to that.” When
a, man lias done Ins life work,
and nothing can be materially
altered in his fate, let him for
ge this toil and jest if he will,
but what excuse can you find
it r wilfulness of thought at tin
very time when every crisis ot
fortune hangs ou you decision'.
A youtn thoughtless, when all
the happiness of his futun
home and family depend on the
chances or the passions of the
passing hour? A youth thought¬
less. when the career of all Ids
days depends on the opportune
ty of a moment? A youth
thoughtless, when his ever}
actian is a foundation stone oi
futuro conduct and ovcry ima
giuatiou of life or death. Be
thoughtless in any after years,
rather than now—though, in
deed, tiiere is only one place
where a man may bo nobly
thoughtless, his death-bed.
Nothing should ever be left to
be done there.—Ex.

An Arkansas editor, read
a young Mr ta New
k'.eads bread with her glove
'on, thou it was that the Arkan
sas traveler spake and said;
“We need bread with our pants
on, we need bread with our
boots on, and if our subsribers
in arrears don’t pay up soon
we shall need broad without
anything on.”
But it took the editor of the
Texarkanian to offer up a prayer
that readily aw akenen a ‘'amen”
in the bosom of the average ed¬
itor. Said editor was called
on to pray, in public, and fal
ling ou Ins knees fie talked
right out m the meeting the
following prayer,
“Almighty and kind Father,
who from Thy throne lookest
down and upon deliquenfc the government subsribers, of j
men
most humbly do we beseech
I hee to draw near unto them
«id whisper a few things into
their ears that tho statutes for
aid us to print. Thou kuow
est our wants, but the sub
scriber knowest them not and
seldom stops to inquire. Let it
be kuowu to them that there
are patches ,on the homestead
of our pants, and there is an
aching void in the front of our
backs,and that we hunger and
i hirst and asketli us not to sup
with him. Thou knoweth
Lord, that our priu-t, paper and
cost money, but the sub
briber knoweth that we are
cold and the subscriber bring
eth not the wood he promised,
and we arc shivering and shak¬
ing while ho roasteth his shius
before the rod hot stove of his
mother-in-law. Fell him all
these things, Lord, and if he
then bringotli no succor ban¬

praise through our newspaper

BY NO MEANS THE
GREATEST.
The first dispatches concern¬
ing the recent big fire in 1 ,on~
don stated that the loss woftld
reach $75,900,000. It turns
out to be only about $10.900,000,
most of which is to be made
conf.m*”'"™™ *tiio
Kveu if first reports
been true, the late London
would have fallen far short
being the most destructive
flagration known since
great Loudon fire in the
teenth century, as the excited
corrospodents said it was.
Chicago, which boasts
many things without
reason, cati make good
claims to
-4i w to
,b r, 1871. Mrs. 0,Leary’s
started a blaze which consum¬
ed 18,000 buildings, covering
an area of 2,124 acres, made
1,000,000 people homeless and
destroyed property to the a
mount of $2000,000,000, or
three times the value of all the
real estate iu Atlanta at this
time. This beats the fire rec¬
ord for all time.
The great Boston fire broke
out on the evening of Novem¬
ber 9, 1872, and destroyed $75
000,000 worth of property. It
is estimated that the burning of
Moscow, in 1812, by its patriotic
citizens as a method of driving
back Napoleon, caused a luss
ofj$150,000,000.
The London fire of last week
is away down in the list of big’
blazes. It was beaten $5,000
000 the other da> by Melbourne
Australia.— Atlanta Journal.
