THE MANUFACTURING PLANT OF TAYLOR-CANNADY
A MILLION DOLLAR BUSINESS
A High Water Mark is Reached By
Popular Oxford Firm
In 1908 when the firm of Horner
Bros. Company was formed no one,
not even the members of the firm,
dreamed that its business would
reach the enormous proportions that
it has now reached. For a business
during the past five years to sell a
cool million dollars worth of goods
requires a great deal of confidence on
the part of customers and energy on
the part of the employees of the
Company. .
In the buying department Mr. Jas.
W. Horner is manager, and ,we can
truthfully say that a more shrewd
and careful buyer never went upon
the market than he. He knows the
full value of a dollar and he always
MR. SAM M. W ATKINS
(See Page 18.)
gets it because he realizes that here
in Granville are hundreds of prosper
ous farmers that want the very same
thing and he must get it for them.
When Horner Bros. Co. tell you a cer
tain article is quoted at the lowest
possible price you can safely rely up
on their statement.
The officers of this progressive
company are: Messrs. C. W. Bryan,
president; Jas. W. Horner, manager:
D. K. Taylor, assistant manager and
secretary. Their force of salesmen
consists of the following well-known
men: Messrs. Drew Bryan, Walter
Crews, C. H. Timberlake, L. S. Bryan,
Mrs. T. B. Pendleton. Miss Mary
Fisher Hunt is the efficient stenogra
pher. All of these popular salesmen
will be glad to see you anytime you
come to town and remember you al
ways will get a hearty welcome at

TRY IT! SUBSTITUTE
FOR NASTY CALOMEL
Starts Your Liver Withont Making
You Sick and Can Not Salivate
Every druggist in town your
druggist and everybody's druggist
has noticed a great falliner-off in the
sale of calomel. They all give the I
same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone
is taking its place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people
know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone
is perfectly safe and gives better re
sults," said a prominent local drug
gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is person
ally guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle costs 50
cents, and if it fails to give easy re
lief in every case of liver sluggish
ness and constipation, you have only
to ask for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasteing, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take a spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or constipa
ted bowels. It doesn't gripe or cause
inconvenience all the next day like
violent calomel. Take a dose of cal
omel today and tomorrow you will
feel weak, sick and nauseated. Don't
lose a day's work! Take Dodson's
Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full
of vigor and ambition.
J. G. Hall recommends Dodson's
Liver Tone to take the place of calo
mel, adv.
