w e are IIOYV making as high grade Overalls as
-are made anywhere and we are selling them for
less n»one\ than the same grade of goods can be
procured- elsewhere. We ask the merchants far
and near to let us prove the truth of this assertion
to them. We hope no roerehant w'll come to Le
tt ir without calling on us. We know we have as
gpod overalls as he can find and that .we can save
liim money on them.
When we organized.this business we knew we
could make it prove a boon to the merchants of this
section. W T e knew that the cost of manufacturing
is sue h that by selling direct to the merchants we
could make these goods cost them less than the
products of any house selling tnrough jobbers. We
have proved this idea to be correct. We have done
but very little drumming, and yet the demand for
our goods has been greater then we could supply.
From Rusticus.
We suppose that the many
readers of the Democrat are very
anxious to know what has be
come of old uncle Rusticus. He
is glad to say to them that he is
still kicking among the grassy
cotton and sweet potatoes. As
there has been so much rainy
weather the grass grows fast,
so fast you can't chop it out. The
farmers are having tough times
in trying to conquer general
grass and his strong and forti-.
fied hosts, but they are using
every means and efforts to sub
due him and win the day. This
has been a hard summer on the
farmers to keep their crops in
proper condition. Owing to the
rainy season the wheat thresh
ers have a pretty hard time of it
as the ground is so soft and
miry that their engines hardly
pan make the trip, but by some
fnfaps thfiy tug along from
house to hause and do the thresh
ing.
There is no important news in
this section, everything seems
to be very quiet all along the
line. The farmers are about
through laying by corn and cot
ton. Cotton looks fine, but if it
continues to rain so much it will
begin Shed itg ghrpes.
the health of this section is
pretty good, with exception of &
few aged people. Daniel Yoder
who is in his 85th year, an old
detailed Confederate soidier, had
a stroke of paralysis about two
weeks ago, but seems to be some
better now.
Charles E. Finger is prepar

It costs less to paint a house with

with L. & M., and doesn't pay
