Opened Yesterday and Is Drawing Crowds of Bargain Hunters The “Monster Mill-find Sale” which wa/advertised to take place at O. E. Wilkins’ store from Feb. 1‘Jch to March 6th, inclusive, opened up on time yesterday morning, and not withstanding the snow and siusb un der foot, and the snow, ruin aud sleet overhead, crowds flocked t0 tbe sale, and from morning till night Mr. Wilkins’ establishment was thronged with a multitude of eager buyers. A large ,iorce of clerks bad been en gaged for the occason, and they were taxed to their utmost capacity to wait upon the numerous “bargain hunters ” Mr. Wilkins closed bis store Wed nesday in order to mark the goods for this sale and to make all neces sary preparations for the opening yesterday morning. One of the feu tures attacneo to the Mill-End Sale” that attracted considerable at tention, was the huge "elephant that went through the city Wednes day afternoon, under the supervision of Mr. A. B Gaines, with large pos ters on “his” sides announcing tie opening of the Mill Eod. Ihe ‘el-- phaur,” was ‘such a clever imitation, coat only close inspection could d- - tecr *he counterfeit. The Mill End s?ale opened under Hie personal management of Col. M Wilber Dyer, the originator of the schera and will c mtinue daily until Saturday night, March 6:h. the sight presented at the sale yes terday was quite an object lesson in^ advertising. If any one in this who doesn’t bel^va that advertising [jays could "have seen the crowd come trooping ibr ugh the mud. rain, s'eet and snow to the Mill-End Sale yes terday morning, he would have at | once thrown asid- all pr judices snd professed unbounded fuitn in the vir tue of printer’s ink. The sale D quite a departure in Gaffney’s “busy mart.” and th. r: is no doubt but that it will be well patronized. WOMEN AND SOCIETY. [All communications to this column should l»e addressed to I’. O.

EUcbt Skin Crnpllons area Warning of So in. thing TOor*' Serious to Tome. Tne Only Sale Way la to Heed the Warning. Jobnaton’a Sarsaparilla ” is tbe Most Powerful Blood Purifier Known. Nature, in her effortu to correct mistakes, which mistakes have come from earele^ living, or it may be from ancestors, shoots out pimples, blotches and other imperfections on the skin, as a warning that more serious troubles (per haps tuiiiors, cancers, erysipelas or pulmonary diseases) are certain to follow if you neglect to heed the vyarning 1 and correct the mistakes. Many a lingering, painful disease and many an early death has been avoided simply because these notes of warning have been heeded and the blood kept pure by a right use of JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA. Miss Abhie J. Rande, of Marshall, Mich., writes: “I was cured of a bad humor after suffering with it for five years. The doctors and my friends said it was salt rheum. It came out on my head, neck and ears, and then on my whole body. I was perfectly raw with it. What I suffered during those five years, is no use telling. Nobody would believe me if I did. I tried every medicine that was advertised to cure it. I spent money enough to buy a house. I heard JOHNSTON’S SARSAPARILLA highly praised. I tried a bottle of it. I began to improve right away, and when I had finished the third bottle I was completely cured. I have never had a touch of it since. I never got any thing to do me the least good till I tried JOHNSTON’S SARSAPARILLA. I would heartily advise all who are suffering from humors or skin disease of any kind to try it at once. I had also a pood deal of stomach trouble, and was run down and miserable, but JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA made me all right.” The blood is your life and if you keep it pure and strong vou can positively re sist disease or face contagion fearlessly. JOHNSTON’S SARSAPARILLA never fails.
