"Racket Stores," and "Cheap Johns" the
latter especially, have been legislated
against, but Plymouth boasts of a "Cheap
John," notwithstanding. We refer to no
less a personality than our popular mer
chant, John T. Lewis, known in this sec
tion as "That Cheap man, Lewis." His
name is John, consequently the law can't
joki him down. If you dQn't believe be is
pheap, just drop in and get prices on Clo
thing, Dry Goods, Notions. Shoes, etc., and
especially Heavy and Fancy Groceries.
His low prices have long been tne tain or
the town, and now his $4.0Q hocs for 25c.
is creating wild excitement. Call on him
and he'll tell you how to get a pair.
How Advertising Pays.
Two farmer were discussing their
local paper. One thought it had
too, many advertisements in it. The
othe,ireplied : ."In my opinion the
advertisements are far from being
the least. valuable part 61 it. I look
them over carefully and save at least
five time3 the cost of the paper each
week through the business advanta-
kgea I get from, them."
baia the qthej.: '1 believe you
are right I lnow tha,t they pay me
well and rather .think that.it 13 not
good taste to ;find fault after all." 1
It pays ary man to take a good
local paper for the xake oi the adver
tisements if nothing more. And if
business mep .fail to give farmers a
chance Cb read advertisements in the
local paper, they are all bUnd to'
their interests, tp say the .Iqast of it.

A startling iuoidejat,-of which Mr. John
Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject, is
narrated by him as follows: "I was in a
most dreadful, condition. My skin was al
most yellow, eyes eu,aton, .tongue coated!,
pain continually in back aud sides, no ap
petite gradually growing weaker day by
day. Three physicians had given me up.
Fortunately a friend advised trying 'Elec

During last May an infant child of our
neighbor was suffering from cholqra in
fantum. The doctors had given -up all
hopes of recovery. J. took a bottle of Cham
berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy to th house, telling them I felt
sure it would do good if used according to
directions. In two days time the child had
fully recovered. The child is pow yigorous,'
and healthy. I have recommended this
remedy frequently and have never known
it to fail. Mas. Curtis Baker, Bookwal
