During the Past Ninety Days the Patronage of this Store Has Increased Wonderfully. Why ?
- Because We Do as We Advertise, and Know That
Pleased Customers Make Steady Patrons.
No matter what others may claim to offer, this store will always give you better service, newer, fresher and better goods, for the
. same ot less money, than is possible to obtain at other stores who do less business than we do. We are constantly on the alert for our
- patrons’ interests, and the latest we have to offer is that we have purchased the entire output of '
O REAM AND MILK
Of Mr. R. H. Northcutt’s Kennesaw Dairy, and we are prepared to furnish this rich, delicious Cream and Milk, in any quantity, at any
time. This superior milk comes to us early each morning in sealed glass jars, thoroughly cooled, and we will deliver same to your door if
.you will Phone No. 5—3 Phones. Most folks know that this cream and milk has no equal, for we have used it in our creams and ices and
at our fountain for some time, and in order to supply our constantly increasing patronage with the best, we have found it necessary to
: purchase the entire output of this well known farm. You cannot afford to use ordinary, common milk in your. family, when we- deliver
‘the best to your door at the same price. Call Phone No. 5, and give us a trial.

A Bale of Cotton Given Away.
From the Progressive Retailer,
There’s a progressive new store in
Marietta, Ga., working a sale scheme
that is attracting attention in and
around this thriving little Georgia
town. The sign over the door reads,
‘*‘The German Store.’”’ It’s around the
corner, off the Square where practically
all the other big stores are located.
One of THE PROGRESSIVE RETAILER’S
travelers was through Marietta the
other day, and saw parading the streets
& wagon drawn by a little black mule.
Its driver was blacker than the mule.
The wagon displayed large banners
telling of ‘‘a bale of cotton given away
at ‘The German Store.’”’ ““Where’s
the German Store?’’ he asked several
of the towns-people. ‘‘Just around
the corner,’”” was the reply from each
one, It eseemed as ‘‘just around the
corner’’ had been hammered into their
minds pretty strong, so just around
the corner the ‘‘P, R.”” man went, for
he was sure that here he was going to
get another subscriber. |
There stood the kig bale of cotton on
a platform in front of the store. Two
young men were found busy arranging
stocks in a neat little store. ‘‘How’s
the sale going?”’ ‘‘Fine,’’ was the re
ply. It was learned that with each
dollar purchase a ticket was J given
which would enable the holder to par
ticipat'e in a chance to get the bale of
cotton at the drawing on June 15th.
The sale has proved a remarkable suc
cess, It is being widely advertised.
The country people around Marietta
are coming ia, they [are being pulled
“just around the corner’’ off the main
shopping streets, and advertising is
doing it. These two young men are
progressive—they are growing.
Don’t buy Clothing before
seeing the German Store.
Mrs. Eva Standard spent Saturday
and Sunday in Atlanta with her son,

Fine Report of Develop
ment of Property.
Mr. Morgan McNeel has received a
letter from his brother, Mr. Mills Me-
Neel, who is in Mexieo, stating that the
El Socorro mining property, in which a
number of Marietta men are interested,
is developing into a splendid prospect,
and there are indications that some big
fortunes are going to be made.
Mr. Mills McNeel left Marietta about
three weeks ago for the mine, where
about seventy thousand dollars hsas
been spent The machinery has been
running about thirty days, and a con
siderable quantity of gold has been
taken out. The vein grows better as
progress is made, and there is every
prospect that the mine will pay well,
The mine has been owned by Mariet
ta parties about & year and s half. It
was bought from an Indian by Mr.
John Morris, brother of Judge Morris,
and a man whom he met in Mexico, It
is about 400 miles from -the City of
