With prices as , low as they are now, it is rather remarkable that any business is going on at all. ' It is not so bad as that, however. During ; the past week business has been fairly , good. If other towns in the territory surrounding are getting along as well as Yorkville, there is no occasion just now for serious complaint. The Cotton .Market.

While it is made to jell, it is also made to satisfy the customer ind represent a value equal to the price for which it is sold. It is LIGHT AND STRONG and always built of the very best material to be had, and in all stages if its construction it is passed through a thorough, severe and critical inspection by one whose first thought is to have it built as nearpefection as human skill can accomplish.
