TEXAS 'MERCY STORE’ NETS $100,000 PROFIT Waller, Texasi—A. W. Purvis gave his store to God and has made a fortune. "All goods in this store are sold at cost, nothing is added for profit. The store is kept by free-will offer erings. Anything you may add to your purchase will be received with many thanks.” That legend in his "God’s Mercy Store” tells the story of how he con ducts his general merchandise busi ness—and yet has made a profit of $100,000 in the last 16 years. The many that flock to this un usual store were soon convinced that Purvis was selling his goods at cost and there were few who did not leave a free-will offering before de parting. Circus To Show Here Tuesday, August 30th. Twenty-five years ago a circus as large and as important as the great John Robinson Sc Sells-Floto Circus combined would have had approxi mately a hundred advance men, in cluding press agents, billposters, lith ographers, bannermen, contracting a gents, and others to pave the way for the coming of the, show. Now, due to extensive use of automobiles it equires but about one-half that number. Improved methods of ad vertising are also a factor in cover ing a wide territory and getting the sh'ow advertised. In the old days of thirty years ago billposters traveled entirely by train, especially when doing what is known as excursion routes. Two days would be required to do the work that a man can now do in a single day, as just as soon as he finishes posting his bills he moves on to the next village or town. Covering three hundred miles a day is nothing unusual for these circus advertising trucks. Right after the nineteeth century when the first advertising car reach ed an exhibition stand, all of the men went into the surrounding country side to post bills, via wagons and teams. Fifty miles a day was ex ceptional, while today no contract ing agent ever lays out a route of less than 100 miles, and double the number of towns that they used to post with highly gay-colored circus bills. Six large trucks are part of the great Sells-Floto advance, and in every stand five and six additional automobiles are engaged, so that the advance can finish their work in the limited space of one or two days. The big railroad advertising car No. 1 under the direction of Vern Wil liams, carrying twenty-six men, run ning two weeks in advance of the show date, never remains any longer in a city than the number of days the show appears. Five press agfents are carried by this Great Show, which appears in Salisbury Tuesday, August 30. Mick ey Coughlin is the first to arrive to call on the editors, traveling two weeks in advance on the "place on wheels” advertising car No. 1, fol lowed in rotation by Robert E. Hick ey, Klara E. Knecht. Cliff McDougall and Harry Mack, who comes on cir cus day. The press department is one part of the advance that has not been curtailed; instead, more atten tion is paid to the newspapers now than in former years.

Maupin, exten sion poultryman at State College. "Therefore, if breeding hens are sel ected in the late summer or early fall and winter this quality can be noted and only the late molters selected.” PUNCH IN THE NOSE RESULTS IN DIVORCE Chicago.—Mrs. Jean W.

Lindberghs Happy As New Son Is Born A second son was born to Mr. and Mrs. Chas. A. Lindbergh August 16, at the home of the child’s grand mother, Mrs. Dwight W. Morrow in Englewood, N. J. The new baby was born at 7:30 a. m. It is a boy, but the color of his hair, of his eyes, his weight, length and the other statistical knowledge that is usually announced, is un known and probably will be un known for many days. Colonel Lind bergh graciously confirmed the re port of the baby’s birth. He gave the time and said it was a boy. "Mother and baby doing fine,’’ he said, chuckling. But that was all he would say. Quite obviously, this new baby, coming in the wake of one of the most cruel crimes ever committed against an infant or its parents, is to be closely guarded and carefully cloistered against the world. The Morrow estate is surrounded by a high iron fence. The gates are guarded by private police and wat chmen who patrol the grounds. The Morrows have always had these paid guardians of their persons an!d pro perty; so have th& Morgans, the Rockefellers, the McCormicks. But Lindbergh shuttered at such a pros pect for his baby and rejected it. This time he will accept his late father-in-law’s advice. In the Morrow home Mrs. Morrow was the only near relative present. Mrs. Lindbergh’s sisters and her brother are abroad. Mrs. Morrow was with them, but returned to be with Anne during her ordeal. Dr. E. M. Hawks and Dr. E. H. Den nen, who attended Mrs. Lindbergh during her first birth, officiated to day. Betty Gow, little Charles’ nurse at the time he was kidnaped s visiting her parents in Scotland but will return to be nurse to the new baby. When Charles Augustus Lind bergh, Jr., was born June 22, 1930. the world had been awaiting the event for weeks. Reporters and photographers by the score had been camped at the entrance to the Mor row estate for many days. The fan fare, the joy that greeted the birth could not have been greater had he been heir presumptive to the throne of an empire. There wasn’t a repor ter or a photographer at the gates. Colonel Lindbergh himself telephon ed newspaper offices and made the an nouncement. From now on a regular dog license will cost a dollar more, but the old marriage licenhe is ail a man needs to be permitted to lead that kind of life, of course. SALISBURY MEN HELD IN COUNTERFEIT CASE Eugene Click, Salisbury man, Wednesday afternoon) was given a preliminary hearing before U. S. Commissioner Percy Bloxam on a charge of passing a spurious $10 bill at a filling station at Jennigns. He was ordered held for federal court under $5,000 bond, which was ar ranged. Frank Webb, another Sal isbury man who was with Click at the time, was also charged with the same offense and sis bond was also fixed at $5,000. Curious: "I wish I could find out just how many relatives I have here on this earth.” Cynic: "Why, that’s the easiest thing in the world—just buy a sum mer cottage.” "I’m engaged to be married and I’ve only known the girls three days.” "What folly!” "Ziegfield’s.”_ Side Quit Hurting, Got Stronger, Well; CARDUI Helped Her WOMEN! Get rid of the handi cap* of a weak, debilitated condi tion with the assistance of Cardui. Mrs. R. L. West, of Huntsville, Ala., writes: "I was weak and run-down. I had a pain in my side, and I kept losing weight. I grew nervous over my condition — this was unusual for me, for I am very cheerful when I am well and don’t easily get nervous. I knew I ought to take something. My aunt told me I ought to try Cardui, which I did. I began to feel bet ter. I kept it up until I had taken three or four bottles. My side quit hurting and I was soon feel ing strong and well.” Cardui 1* sold at drug stores here. \ STAR LAUNDRY "The Good One” Launderers and Dry Cleaners Phone 24 114 West Bank St. One Day Service We Attend To All Details.
