A Death---Personal Mention
Other Matters.
Prosperity, December 17.-Maj.
J. W. Spears, of Hampton county,
has been here pretty regularly as
agent of the New York Mutual
Life Insurance company. After
some three days of illness he died
at Wise's hotel last Sunday night
of pneumonia. His remains werf
sent to his home in Hampton
county last Monday.
A telegriphic message to rela
tives in Prosperity annou'nced the
critical illness of Miss Anna Bo
land, of Little Mountain.
It is now known that the Rev.
G. R. Shaffer, who has been on
this circuit for t wo years, will leave
us and go to Whitmire. Mr Shaffer
has a warm place in the affections
of our people and has won their
entire confidence by his consistent
walk and conversation among us.
We have learned to know him and
of course hate to give him up. Mr.
Shaffer has a peculiarly interesting
family. The Rev J. K. McCain
will take Mr. Shaffer's place and to
him we turn with greetings.
Another week brings us to the
Christmas season. The stores of
our merchants have on their holi
day appearance. Our merchants
are prepared for a big trade for 12

hard times. Our churches are pre
paring for special services. At
the Lutheran church a Christmas
tree and special service for the Sun
day School will be held on the
evening of the 25th. The Metho
dist church will have a tree and
special service on the morning of
the 25th.

If there is ever a time during
the whole year when you want
.your money to go farthest it
is right now. Everyone likes
to give. The problem is what
you can give that is worthy of
giving and still have your
money go around. In both of
these respects this store can
be of service to you. What to
give becomeo an easy matter
when you have such an ample
stock of desirable gifts to se
lect from as we are ,showing
this year. It combines every
element of beauty, usefulmess,
novelty and realworth.
Many items in our
stock that you cannot get else
where and nothing that you
can get elsewhere that is worth
having that you cannot get
here for the lowest obtainable
prices.
Come Soon
We would like to impress
upon every one the desirability
of making their selection soon
Every day will count from now
until Xmias and every day the
task will only increase your
worry. The prices cannot be
lower than they now are and
the assortment will constantly
grow less. Our stock is too
large to be completely exhaus
ted but it is so much easier to
pick your gifts before the final
rush begins.
