' This merchant advertises liberally I r in The Dillon Herald. The moral is the man who advertises never jJJlP* feels hard times. W. M. Hamer has leased for a ^ period of five years the McLaurin .? * building recently occupied by J. P. McLaurin art a wholesale groc cursionists will be joined at Lattfl by the Latta Baptist Sunday School where two coaches will be attached to the regular excursion train. Not so very long ago a man representing a printing house in another state was in Dillon soliciting orders for commercial printing. He offered a local merchant a note head for $1.50 per 1000 which cost at the factory $1.15 with every discount off. Add $ 1.35 for typesetting, padding and press work and you will see the solicitor was the loser to the amount of $ 1.00. The price was attractive and the merchant bought. Then the solicitor showed samples of other kinds of commercial stationery. The samples included order books, remittance blanks, etc. The merchant bought a lot of these also. y and has moved the cotton ill office therein. Mr. McLaurin s moved into the David build? on Main street which he rentlv purchased from Mr. Ha r. The District Lodge Knights of, thias has accepted an iuvitation >m the local lodge to meet at lion next fall. The invitation is tendered through Messrs. H. Cottingham, R. M. Lang and M, Moody who attended the itrict meeting at Florence last :ek as delegates from the Dillon lge. Last Thursday a week ago, irty- six years ago, this country is visited by a frost followed by exceptionally cold snap that lied all vegetation. The few :eks previous to the frost had en very mild and there was a ku riant giowth of vegetation erywhere. The incident is relied by many of the older inhab.nts. Not for many years has the ring season been so favorable r planting and the result is that tton planting is well advanced, . ports received from different rts of the county seem to indite that the usual acreage will be anted this year. However, ere has been a big increase in e tobacco acreage. Mr. G. C. Johnson has received tters patent on a suspensory hich may prove of great practi1 value to the medical profesjn. The suspensory was in nted by Mr. Johnson's brother-law in Germany who is a phy;ian and the invention is coved bv patent in the German Emre. Mr. Johnson is making prerations to put the patent on the arket. Mr. P. W. Bctbea, superintennt of the public school of St. corge, and Miss Eva Weathers that town were married on Friiy morning. Immediately after e marriage ceremony "was perrmed the happy couple left for Uta where they spent several iys visiting Mr. Bethea's relates. Miss Weathers is said to ; one of the most popular lsdies St. George and Mr. Bethea is be congratulated. The children of the Baptist Suniy School are looking forward to e picnic at Lake Waccamaw toorrow with a great deal of please. The train will leave at 8 clock tomorrow morning and turning will leave the Lake a>ut 6 in the afternoon. The exI Picture ft BIG LINE JUS ft BIGGEST BARGAIN: fl Oval Shapes.

But then another printing man came along and the merchant laughed at his quotation of $ 2.50 per 1000 for the same note head. The bill was produced and fully sustained the merchant's claim that he could buy the same note head for $ 1.50 per 1000, but lc and behold! lie had paid double price for every other item on the bill and was the loser to the extent of a $10 spot. But still such things happen every day. NOTICE TO ItOAD OVERSEERS. All ovei seers ol the public roads in the County, whether newly appointed or holding over under former warrants, are directed and urged to give immediate attention to,their respective sections, with especial reference to such portions of the highway as have been plowed into by cultivators of adjacent lands. The practice of plowing into and trespassing upon the public roads in many quarters has grown into an evil and a nuisance that must at once be abated. Persons liable to road duty, whc have not paid the commutation tax, must be required forthwith to perform enough labor to put their sections of roads in good con dition. The prompt and vigorous attention of the overseers is urgently requested. D. J. Martin, t" >nntv Sunfrvisnr Marion, S. C., April 20th, 1909. Frames | IT RECEIVED. QQ sTEVER OFFERED. W ?r Black.
