J. D. WHITTLE, B/ackviHe, S. C, > \ * r •> I am glad to give to all past and present customers and to the general purchasing public the good mtd summer news that by the transfer of my carefully chosen and complete stocks of Pure Food Grocerie*, Standard Hardware and Wide Ranged House Furnishing Goods to the more com modious and convenient store room under the Masonic Temple, Barnwell, S. C , I am in the happy position of be ing able, as I am sincerely desirous of doing, to offer far better advantages in such goods to all who appreciate the square deal in business. H SOME SUMMER SUGGESTIONS: Much of human health and happiness eoincs from the foods eaten and my groceries are the cleanest and choicest. All the substantial and delicacies needed for the breakfast, the dinner and the supper table constantly in stock. At thw leisure season the provident husband and thoughtful housewife can very pleasantly and profitably as certain what arc the needs of the farm and the home 111 the way of hardware for the field or the kitchen, of furnishings for the dining room or the chamber and supply siu h wants without hurry or worry It is a good time also to prepare for Winter by the se lection of blankets, quilts, sheets, pillow cases, &c., when the demand for such goods is quiet. J^^Thc chances for high prices for the neat 'cotton crop are gilt edged. That will mean dearer white gocxU. So be wise and buy uow, and from me.. And especially get the girls and the hoys who will soon return to their college and school lives provided with clo thing that will be comfortable, durable and well apjwaring Everything in stock for youths and young men from hand some hats to the shoes that make life's walks easy and graceful. With sincere thanks for the continuing patronage ex tended the Molair Store so many years, I solicit the further and larger confidence of my friends and the public and promise my best efforts to make my service acceptable to them. 6- F.
