Just keep an eye on Mimnaugh for great is Colambia but greater is Mimnaugh when it comes to bargains in men, women and chil- j dren's wearing apparel. Anything in this line, from a paper of pins to the costliest silk can be purchased in his store thus making shpping a pleasure instead of of a drag running all over town to get this, that and the other thing. Spring Sill Sparks. Pine rains visited this section last week and crops generally show improvement already. There has been more peas sown in this section than ever before, ow ing to the decreased acreage in both cotton and corn, the latter as a j e j?ult of lack of moisture and dry weather until it was too late to plant. Pastures are fine since the Bbowers. Gardens are improving.
