DOLLARS *
AND CENTS. . .
The people of the south are practicing econ
omy to-day more closely than ever, and it is
right. A penny saved is a penny made.
The Way to Save
Pennies is to buy your Fall and Winter Goods
where you can get the biggest value for your
money. Besides you want something that is
stylish and up to date, and the place where all
these qualities are combined is
Thompson Hiles & Co.
Our Mr. Martin has just returned from Cincin
nati where he bought an elegant line of season
able and Stylish goods for the Fall and Winter
trade, which we will offer at Bed rock prices.
We had a magnigicent trade last spring and we
are determined to keep it up.
Low Prices
And a good quality of goods will always draw the
trade, and to these two features in our present
stock we call the especial attention of the public.
It will be to your interest to call and see these
Elegant New Goods
Whether you are ready to buy or not. It
costs you nothing to look, and when you see

Dougherty vs Rudolph was the title
of a case called at the race track yes
terday. Dougherty is a famous foot
racer from Rome and Mr. Rudolph is
a “crack” bicycle rider. The race was
between “shank’s horses” and man
on-a-wheel, the latter mounting after
the starting signal was given, over a
hundred ya’ds course. The race was
very interesting, and the Rome man
proved a winner by twenty yards.—

Gladness Comes
With a better understanding of the
transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper ef
forts—gentle efforts —pleasant efforts —
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with miUionsof families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. It is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene
ficial effects, to note when you pur
chase, that you have the genuine arti
cle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
rsed and gives most general satisfaction.
