?i vim: IN iiihI AST CIT.-ES
People sometimes tell tin* home!
merchant that lie dues not sell as
cheaply as metropolitan mores or
mail order houses in more or less
distant cities. ,
Any persno wishing to compare the
two scales of prices should Inquire
whether thy distant r.torc was seiling
the same goods. Second grade prod
ucts can be made to look very hand
some in a catalog cut, But the home
merchant can not float that kind of
goods. They come hack to his store
too easily.
It is amusing to see the bother
people will take for trilling suiii.s they
think they ure saving: The wjll
travel many miles, spend Btroet car
fares, pay for luncheons, hotel bills,
and tips. T.hey got tired and foot
sore, trnmpin,; around overgrown
stores separated by long distances.
They wait for change tarry bundles,
and pay express. They pay a high
price in money and energy for sup
posed economies.
When yon buy goods away from
home you rarely take thorn back.
They bother and eqpense looks pro
hibitive. When you buy at home you
would return thsm if dissatisfied,
year nli-o reclamation of low lands by
intelligent drainage will be pushed.
But the -programe for 15)14 Is too full
of hte practical things that can be
done, ought to be done, and must be
done If the maxium of result is to be
otbalned, for mo to undertake to dc
inil It here. One thine Is certn'n, we
."tall endeavor to let intelligence!, and
huslness methods direct our efforts in
the light of changing economic con
ditions, looking ever to attaining that
maxium dogreo of development; which
in the end Is in?vitable when we take
'nto consideration the natural richness
if the- ml) and'the other advantages
otiditious. As yet no htcp has boon
taken to even maintain t;oii fertility.

allure for South Carolina and her uls
ter State:? of the South Atlantic Sea
?iou?u. If WO Turn who, are urging our
people onward and upward, will but
do our full duty and do our full
measure of hard, earnest, sincere and
honest work.
It is to it.; work In Buch a glorious
Hold of human endeavor that 1 wel
come hte 'advent of the new Anderson
Intlllgencer, under the dirction of one
whose record for devoted sincere to
the publiclliyylllllllltU?sea?thomuutti

This takes the time of clerks, fre

Where It is soeasy to return frnod?.
the customer muBt be given both the
worth of his money, and* something
suited to his needs. A higher grado
of salespeople Is thus required in the
heme store. To make a sale that

must be gl\ca tutelllftent advt?u.
Thus the. public demanda from the
home .store, more competent service
than It exacts from the distant mer
chant. This means additional ex

lower rents and like economics.

states condition
And Shows How This Whole Sec
tion Could Be Brought Closer
Together
Editor The Daily Intelligencer:
I read with a great ii?al of inter?
est the editorial in lurt Tuesday's
issue heudud "Give i:s More Trains",
i think taix Issue is verj timely and
of a great deal of importance. Tiiere
is probably no other town of its size
along the lines of the Southern rail
road could Bay "Give us more trains''
With the facts to justify the appeal
better than the town of Westminster.
We are in a poculiur situation at this
place. \As the old saying Is "So
near, yet so far."
There is a gap bl about 30 miles
lying between Seneca and Tim coa',
(ia., thai Is clearly due better pas
senger service from t'"" Southern
and Westminster is in the "(Ja:?" un
fortunately for us. From iCoccoa,
Qa.? the Southern operates a local
daily passenger train to Atlanta and
return known as "The ilell" and from
Seneca, S. C, they also operate a lo
cal daily pascnger train north to
Charlotte known as No. 42 and No. 31.
The citizens of our town have had
this matter up with the Southern
railroad a number of times. Last
year our hoard of trade sent in a
strong petition, backed by all the
business men and citizens cf Cae
town, asking the Southern to make
Westminster the terminus of trains
Nos. 42 and 41, but we have not re
ceived any consideration from the
request at all. TItc extra distance is
only nine miles and our hoard of
trade made an offer to procuro the
necessary right of way for tho "Y"
as an inducement. If this extension
could bo had we could make c?^a
ncctlon at Seneca with tho BIuq
l?fdge for Anderson nnd Columbia
besides the service of the local train
north to Greenville; Sparhmburg and
Charlotte. As our connections are at
present we cannot make a single con
nection nt Sehoofl foe A?d<t-r?cn.

The response to our %
January clearance sale of
overcoats is wonderful.
But the response, great
as it is, is merely a just re
cognotion of the great
value giving this sale af
fords.
We've had many clear
fances, each of them a
wonderful sale, but the
palm of startling value
giving belongs to this
present clearance.

To the Readers of The Anderson Daily
Intelligencer:
Annual Premium $54.60
1913 Dividends $67,24
Suppose you had been bom in 1831 ; that fifteen years later you insured in* the Mutual Bene
fit for $3,500.00?on the ordinary Life Plan?the policy calling for an annual premium of $54.60. i
but. that instead of vow uav?ne the ccmcanv anvthnisr in 1913 yon reemvod r AlvlAcnA rrf ?19,64
in excess of the premium. Wouldyou not feel that you had been rather fortunate in the selection of
your company?
"Unreasonable suppositions," do I hear you usay? The Mutual Benefit has made just auch n
record as this, me particulars of which are embraced in our leaflet, "Record of the Oldest Policy,"
with which I wish you to be familiar. *
Have you ever asked yourselves the question; "Would my death cause a material loss of in
come to my family?*' If an analysis of Your affairs compels an affirmative answer, your families
need additional protection, which you r^n beet secure through a Mutual Benefit policy.
If this is a new one on you, simply fill out and moil to any of the undoT8:saod. coupon?now,,
and while the matter b fresh in' your minds.
Yours very truly,
