NOTICE.
Beginning on February 1st,
1899, we will begin toop3rate a
business strictly upon a cash
basis. For years past we have
incorporated the credit system,
but upon a careful study and re
flection think our interest de
mands a cash plan, and we have
resolved t inaugurate such a
system beginning on the above
date. Goods will be sold at the
. closest figures, and we believe
our patrons will take advantage
of the small margin m profit.
We earnestly solicit all those
we have favored in the past and
are now doing, to call on or be
fore the above date (Feb. 1, '99),
and liquidate their indebtedness.
Wo are ever ready to fill your
orders and trust this notice will
be taken in the right spirit and
that all will act accordingly.
Yours for success,

Dealers in Hardware, Groceries,
Farming Implements, Tin
ware, etc.
T - J A A t 1
ray auty to introduce Dy re
quest. Tnererore, i regard it
as eminentl- proper, in a mat
ter of this importance, to give
the people a longer time to con-
siaer ana investigate sucn a
9
measure, than they could possi
bly have, should 1 be requested
during the latter part of the ses
sion, to introduce by request
such a bill.
I wish to say further that I
will not make any disclosure of
names of persons making such
requests or writing such letters,
unless I am requested
to introduce such bill
then, a matter of course, it will
become a known fact who the
drafter of the bill is. I suggest
that such a measure be consid
ered, S3as to avoid rush and
under consideration in the event
that I am requested to introduce
sucn a oiu latr on in the ses
sion.
I desire to further call atten
tion to the bill on public roads
published in News and Obser
ver on .January zotn, ana sug -
gest that our countv papers
publish the proposed road law
and get a concensus of opinion,
I shall be glad to know what
the work will go on and that
the graves, especially in dis
tinctive Confederate cemeteries
will be cared for.
How to Prevent Pneumonia.
You are perhaps aware that
paeumonia always results from
a cold or from an attack of la
grippe. JJuring tne epidemic
ot la grippe a tew years ago
when so many cases resulted in
pneumonia, it was observed
that the attack was never fol
lowed by that disease when
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
was used. It contracts any
tendency of a cold or la grippe
to result in that dangerous dis
ease. It is the best remedy in
the world for bad colds and la
grippe. Every bottle warrant
