One Day's Business
-FREE=
We refund in CASH one entire day's
Sales.
To make a record-breaking month's business we have decided
to give away one day's sales beginning NOVEMBER 20
and ending DECEMBER 19. So you can get it in time
for Christmas.
HOW WE DO THIS !
With every purchase, large or small, we issue a check, bearing
the date and amount purchased? Save the check and at
the end of the sale we will announce the date on which
we refund the money. If you hold a check bearing this
date, no matter what amount you have traded on this day,
bring it to our store and we will give you the full amount
in CASH.
For instance, you buy a pair of Shoes, and at the end of the
Sale we announce the date on which you made said pur
chase, you get back the money you paid for the Shoes.
SEE THE POINT?
WHY WE DO THIS!
We have the heaviest and largest stock we have ever carried, \
* and we have not sold what we should have. Everything !
being short and the weather so fine, winter merchandise
has not moved as it should.
NOT THE ONLY INDUCEMENT.
So we again try this method of dividing with our customers.
This refunding plan is not the only inducement we offer.
We challenge any one to beat our prices. We carry the
best standard and advertised line of Merchandise we can
get from a Spool of Coats' Thread to Star Brand Shoes.

(By A. L?. Gossett.)
Westminster, Nov. 17.-Special"
In the death of John M. Cobb, which
occurred on November 10, Westmin
ster mourns the loss of a good citi
zen, and a clever, whole-souled man.
Ever since he was taken sick with
Bright's disease at Pelzer eleven
weeks ago very little hope was en
tertained for his recovery, and the
end came last Tuesday, after intense
suffering, and "Johnnie" Cobb was
no more. He was a son of M. H. D.
Cobb and Beck Emily Adair Cobb,
and his boyhood and young manhood
days were spent In this county in
and around Walhalla and Westmin
ster, where he has a large family
connection. He was for many years
a favorite and skilled blacksmith In
Westminster, having served an ap
prenticeship with his father and the
late J. W. F, Thompson, of Walhalla.
Vie moved from here to his farm,
three miles below town, in the nine
ties. Later he moved his family to
Felzer. and for ten years he was the
faithful blacksmith for the Pelzer
Manufacturing Company. Removing
to Westminster three years ago, he
subsequently re-opened a shop here,
where he worked until returning to
Pelzer again last spring. Mr. Cobb
was G 3 years old, and leaves his
widow, who was Miss Alice Smith
son and the following children: Ar
thur, Lucy, Hayden, Mary and An
nie. He was twice married, his first
wife being Miss Mary McGuffln, a
daughter of the late Rev. A. W.
McGuffln. She died In Westminster
August 28, 1880. His aged father,
M. H. D. Cobb, resides In Pelzer, and
attended the burial on last Wednes
day. The surviving brothers and sis
ters are: D. B. Cobb, Easley; A. J.
Cobb, Clifton; G. P. Cobb, Johnston;
Mrs. Mary J. Crenshaw, Pelzer; Mrs.
Emma Prince, Columbia, and Mrs.
Annie Alexander, Temple, Okla. Mr.
Cobb was a Master Mason and a
Knights of Honor member. As stat
ed last week his body was Interred
with Masonic honors. To his family
and to his aged father and brothers
and sisters ls extended the sympa
thy of a host of friends. The de
ceased was a member of the Baptist
chu rch.
