The obstacle which prevents many people from being reasonably "welloff," is their contempt for small savings.

THE HEATH-ELLIUI I MULt J. C. Elliott, Manager. Do You Think It WOULD BE WISE? DO you think it would be-wisdom on my part to proclaim from the house top, as it were, that the Mutual* Benefit Life Insurance Company was the BEST company for the insured and issued the BEST policy unless I knew the assertion was absolutely true? tViof If It wo a not true lskju i yKJu ni?v/v? bUMv -? v' ..wv representatives of other companies would be able to show Its falsity and that when they did so I would be a?well you know what, and as the lawyers say "would have no standing In court." I make the assertion and continue to make It because I KNOW It is true and cannot be controverted, and because I know that agents of other companies who know their business are not likely to try unless they have reason to suppose that the individual to whom they are talking either imagines that all they say is true or will not try to verify their statements. An unbiased, unprejudiced, sensible comparison of the claims of the Mutual Benefit, backed by uncontrovertible proof is all that I ask, and your personal interests demand that "you look before you leap." SAM M. GRIST Special Agent.

Don't fall to see us when In need of anything In our line. Our place of business Is near the Carolina and North-Western depot. J. J. KELLER ft CO. More About the FALL TRADE. While the prospect of a full crop ol cotton Is not good at this time, many of our best farmers say that the crop will turn out much better, with favorable seasons from now on, than many people think. If this be true, and it n likely to turn out that way, the cotton raisers will realize as- much from the higher price of cotton as they would if a crop had been made. With this fact before us we have been buying and are buying large quantities of all kinds of goods for our customers. Wc expect our Mr. Strauss to leave for the Northern markets in a few days and while in the markets Mr. Strauss will 4 M?-*-L -* - ?- ?"" lottflpj pui ionn every euui i iu uuy stocks of goods of the qualities that our trade demands. He will also buy an especially good line of ladies' Dress Goods, as we expect from now on to make ladies' goods more of a specialty l / yt. than heretofore. Watch our advertisements from issue to issue of paper, as they will surely contain something'of interest to'you. About SHOES. Incidentally we wouldf mention the fact that we are gradually working out of the Clothing trade with the Intention of handling bigger stocks of shoes'and ladies goods. We shall certainly carry a bigger stock of Shoes than we have ever carried before, aiicf we have no reasonable doubt but that our stock of Shoes Wilt be the largest and most complete that has ever been handled by one store In this city. For several years past we have been carrying the well-known Reed's Shoes for ladies, and while we know It is but a waste of time to tell of the merits of these shoes to ladies who know and appreciate good footwear, but for the benefit wVa q*?o nAt thftrnnchlv l/jl lauico m?v ?ic uvfc vnvi v?0...^ quainted with Reed Shoes we will say that these shoes stand head and shoulders above any other make of ladles' Bhoes on sale In this section of the country. When a lady wears Reed's Shoes she Is sure to be properly shod, [f you doubt this statement, ask the lady who wears Reed Shoes, and she will vouch for all our claims on this subject. For a number of years past the ReyVino Kaon Atir loa^Pr fnr IIUJUS Qiiuc uao wwcu vu* men. and of the hundreds of pairs we have sold we have had exceptionally few complaints?there are always some complaints about all shoes. But to prove our claim as to the high standard of quality of the Reynold's Shoes we will quote what a well-known shoe man, who is a thorough expert on the shoe question, and who has not one cent's interest in the Reynolds' shoe, recently said to us: "ine rieynoius snue is nuuuui exception the best shoe that I have had In my hands in years. It Is the best shoe that Is sold on this market, and that Is saying a good deal." The man quoted has been handling shoes for years and knows shoes from heel to toe and from sole to tug. If you wear a Reynold's shoe you will wear the best. Our stock of Shoes will include all styles, sizes, prices and qualities, and we believe that we will be In position to please anybody in quality, style, and price. In other words, when you want Shoes it will save you time If you will come to see us. STRAIMITH CO. NOTICE.
