J. 0. QALLOWAY & SON,
GAFFNEY, S. C.
We have now in stock the largest and most
varied line of Cook Stoves and Ranges we
have ever been able to show at one time.
We can sell you a small, light weight, poorly
mounted stove for a little more than nothing,
and hardly worth that; or we can sel! you a
medium grade Stove at a medium price, but
when it comes to a good Stove at a fair price
you save money, for we guarantee every one
of them to cook and buke right or you get
your money back. You stand no chance to
lose anything.
The above illustration represents but one
of the styles we handle in several sizes and is
guaranteed in every way. If this kind don’t
suit you v/e have others in almost endless va
riety and styles, and will take pleasure in
showing you through our new Sample Room,
for wc be.ieve we can suit you both in quality
and pric*.
SO SAYS GENIAL ARTHUR PRID-
MORE.
A Little Want Ad That Drew a Num
ber of Answers Which Greatly
Astonished the Corner
Groceryman.
“Wanted—A woman—Apply at a
certain corner grocery.”
The above appeared in The Ledger
last week. That it was effective and
demonstrated the value of advertising
in The Ledger, our genial friend, the
corner groceryman, will attest. For
a long while Arthur had been saying
lie was going to advertise for a wo
man, so in order to have the gag on
him The Ledger inserted it. Be
hold the astonishment of a crowd of
ladies and genilornen when they ob
served on Friday morning a group of
seven pretty maidens as they
wended their way in gratesque eos-
times to the corner grocery. The
sight would have made a horse laugh.
Of all the tacky rigs in the universe
we
believe those girls had tho
\er>ly
tackiest. And each one carried a
recommendation._ Some carried
vuliecs in which they said were their
clothes. One hand a budget in a
cloth on a stick ; another had a small
trunk, etc., etc. Arthur was dumb
founded. For once in his life ho was
haeke 1. The crowd laughed and
yi lied and some of the loafers nearly
got tlo.vn on the floor and rolled over.
For several yiinutes the corner gro-
ceryman lost his speech and when lie
did tinaliy recover it enougii to say
tii i! the treats were on him lie was
knocked almost senseless by t lie wit ly
reply of one of the young ladies that
"Ihoy hadn't come lor drinks, but
wanted a man.” The house came
very near tumbTTng down. After
j erring him as long as they wanted to
ihey tiled out a sad and disappointed
l»t for that was one ad infliiE Ledger
that was not genuine.
The recommendations were signed
by Mrs. McKinley, Mrs. Bryan, Mrs.
Cleveland and numerous other ladies
now prominent before the American
public. The following are the recom
mendations :

O.Lrieii aint much of a cook, but she

The New, Railway From Blacksburg
Assured.
Some time ago the 0. R. k. C. Rail
way Company proposed to the citi
zens of this city to build a branch of
this road from Blacksburg to Gaffney
on certain conditions. The conditions
were that the citizens of Gaffney obli
gate themselves to pay the O. R. it
C. company a certain amount when
the road was completed to Gaffney.
It was a liberal proposition and our
people accepted it, and have this
week filed a bond with N.W. Hardin,
Esq., attorney for said road for the
full amount asked. The bond was
signed by our business men, and the
came names signed to the bon^ would
be good for a hundred times the
amount.
