This is a very desirable piece of property and the bidding for it will doubtless be very lively. - There is no question but that tht* cotton crop is short in this section.

A New Bank For Fort Mill. Unless present indications are 1 misleading, Fort Mill will have anotheJ bank by the beginning of a new year. It has been known | for several months that the idea of a new bank was brewing in I! the minds of a number of our } pifi'/one Knf if tnoo t K^.^4- I viviuvaiu UUL lb II HO tllUUKIlt UfDl. | to say nothing of the matter until further developments. The first real step for the establish- ] ment of the bank came the past week when subscriptions to stock in the institution were taken. It! is the purpose to capitalize the bank at $25,000, and, although . little canvassing has been done I: by those behind the project, we j are told that about half of this 1 amount has been subscribed. 1 Just as soon as the necessary amount has been taken, the secretary of State will be asked for j a charter and the bank will be 1 formally organized. It is very gratifying to note, as ; we have beer assured, that faith in another bank as a paying institution is such that parties in Charlotte as well as Rock Ilill 1 have each agreed to subscribe sufficient to complete the organization, but it is the desire of the nromoters to place the stock in small amounts in as many hands as possible, especially to farmers, as their accommodation will be i the chief aim of the now inaitn. I tion. The establishment of a new 1 bank in Fort Mill does not mean that there is dissatisfaction with our present Savings Bank, for , that institution since its organiza-! tion has perhaps done more for the advancement of the town; along progressive lines than any other agency. To the contrary, it is believed that the volume of I business going out of this community to the financial institu- ( tions of other towns amply justifies the establishment of a second bank in Fort Mill. The promoters of the new bank are very enthusiastic in their work, and with the gratifying results thuS far attained, it seems a foregone conclusion that the project will I meet with success. i Gft faff oa lie Faint. When you contract with a painter to do your work you had better ask him what he is going to do it with. Don't worry so much ; how he is going to do it and how j, many spots he's going to get on ) the floor. Ask him what you are going TO HAVE when he gets ; through?after uaving him $25. I1 $50 or $75. The painter is going to have $2 or more a day and you 1 will pay for it, the question is what you will have for it. You j very particularly question theI quality of butter you buy?only 15c a pound?or the eggs?a matter of only a few cents. SPECIFY DEVOE to him. s If he kicks against the price, j pay him more. It is a case where you get back dollars for cents you expend. If he makes an ef- j fort to run down the paint, tell , him upon our guarantee that six hundred gallons were sold here 11 the past twelve months and you !v can't look out your door without seeing a specimen of it. Be sure you are safe on Paint, and risk the balance. Devoe is " the standard Paint in the United States and the best known. The white is the whitest white and the glossiest paint on the market. " It has done more beautifying in I Fort Mill than the Civic Improve-, ment society or any other agency. ' ARDREY'S Drug Store. i A Tribute to Rev. Ed. Mack. The many Fort Mill friends of Rev. Edward Mack, of Cincinnati, who was reared in this olace, will be interested in the following tribute to him in a re-1 :ent issue of The Interior, the leading paper of the Northern Presbyterian church: "In the ever stronger chain :hat ties together the Presbyterianism of the North and South, me link very influential, popular ! md active?if there is not too ?reat risk of confusing the metaphor by saying it thus?is the professor of Old Testament exegesis in Lane Seminary, Cincinnati. Five or six years since, when the faculty of that semi- ; nary was reorganized and Lane entered upon an era of new activity after a period of severe depression, the problem of filling the Old Testament chair was solved by the selection of a young Southern Presbyterian pastor in 1 Louisiana. Dr. Mack had already won an assured popularity in the Southern fellowship, and he was followed to this new work in a Northern city by the hearty good will of that whole denomination. <\nd it took him but a brief time to win as hearty love from everybody with whom he was thrown into company in Cincinnati and in the Ohio Synod. For although i he is a deep-read and logical professor he has nothing of the student's besetting fault of se-! dusiveness. No pent-up semi- | nary campus has confined his j powers in Cincinnati, but he has ; freely and heartily entered into! the labors of Presbyterianism for j the blessing of that great city. He has thrown himself with en-1 thusiasm into the Presbyterian i I Brotherhood movement, which I has had a very strong develop- I ment in Cincinnati and its imme- I diate vicinity. His unaffected I friendliness is an immense capi- I I ?1 >_ 1- tin.- .i 1 lui iui men .s worK. vv ner. tne | reunion of all Presbyterians in this country is finally effected, Dr. Mack will deserve admiring ; recognition as a good forerunner j of that good consummation? I himself, as it were, a convincing j laboratory experiment that in Presbyterianism North and South there are no incompatible ele- < ments to prevent their mixing." ' Mr. W. M. Culp announces to his friends that beginning with next Saturday he will serve Oysters each Saturday during the season from the up-stairs room to the rear of the central tele- i phone office.?Adv. ^ FOR SALE.!
