Harris: Ifcar Sir:-- ! have found ilie use of the wa ter from your Lithia Spring In Sout h Carolina so cffleanlous In the ease of a young lady pa tient of mine, who has suffered for years with Diabetes, with all its different attendants, that I want to add my testimonial to the many you already have. The patient I refer to has used the water freely at' home for scarcely a month now, with more l>enefli'lal results than from months spent at different noted lithia springs in different parts of the United States, besides long continued use of the same waters at home. Other of my pal lent* and friends are now using the same with l»est results. I cor dially recommend It to all suffering from similar diseases. Very respectfully yours. Thomas S. Powki.i,. M. D..

This exhibit is under the direction of the Land and Industrial Depart ment of the Southern Railway with headquarters at Washington, D. C., and persons located along that sys tem having exhibit material that they think will interest the public and thereby help advance the best in terest of the section from which it comes, should at once commuincate with the agent of that department.

Customers from all over the country have brought in a verdict that the charge is true, and the evidence being so strong against us, wo plead guilty and shall not appeal the case, Our Store Full of Bargains is the talk of the country and town. We could give a dozen rea sons why we chose to sell so cheap, hut what is the use? We never question the people we buy from as to how they manage to sell so cheap; we don’t care to know why. We just buy the goods and say nothing. We believe you are wise enough to do the same. Are we mistaken? All dry goods and shoes will be sold at cost for casji. Six packages Arbuoklcs cqljfee for $1.Q0. Irish and sweet potatoes and plenty of good things to cat always on han4. Cal) on ! WALTER BAKER & CO.
