We keep up with science—that’s why our jdiar-
macy is equipped with modern appliances and pure
drugs. In many stores “drugs are drugs” without
any regard to their freshness and quality. Not so
here. In order to be on our shelves drugs and
chemicals have got to he strictly first quality and
fresh. We would not risk our reputation by having
them otherwise. If a medicine is to cure a disease it
must be good medicine—the best only is good enough.
Your duty to yourself is to get the very best in drugs
that you •.•an find. In doing your duty to yourself
we have every reason to believe you come here for
your medicines.
We may not be the nearest druggist to you, but
we are the druggist who wi|i come the nearest to
pleasing you.

munity ia unusually quiet ; no sick
ness umong any of our people.
Farm woik is just beginning with
us. Very little has been done any
where. Wheat begins to grow somt
and apparently there is enough on
tne fields sown Oats are generally
kuled aud so fur nu one sreins wining
to ri?k a spring sowing.
The cold snap of Tuesday aud
Wednesday nights last certainly
thinned out the peach crop here, if it
aid not entirely kill it out. We are
still hopeful, however, that some will
be spared The apple crop was not
advanced enough to he hurt.
Cape. Love is doing well with bis
saw mill. Its capacity is about live
thuusaud feet per day. 80011 he wil
be prepared to dr*;S' and fix lumber for
immediate use. He will also have a
grist mill operated by the same ma
chinery.
We wish the Ledger readers to re
member the union meeting of the
northern section of Broad river asso
ciation which will meet wi'h the
Mount Olivet church on Friday the
28 h Hist. This church is north of
Oowpeus about four miles, in t very
prosperous section of the cour.iry.
Ail who come will meet with a warm
welcome from the people up there.
We certainly hope this union will be
well attended.
We closed our school at the Parris
sctnol house 00 the 15tb inet. In
our usual test iu reading and spelling
Mr. Arthur Parris won iu reading ana
Miss Ethel Eimore won in spelling.
A- we notice a custom now quite
common of placing the name of chil
dren who do well in school ou rolls of
honor, feel it our duty and take
pleasure iu giving to The Ledger the
following names who have merited
our approval by • their close applica
tion to study under very adverse cir
cumstances: Arthur Parris, Kingsley
Purris, John Obiiders and Benson
Wbclehel, and Misses Paralee Parris,
Etta Perns. Daisie Parris and Ethel
Eimore. All these pupils devoted
ih« niseiv- s to their studies ix. a very
praiseworthy manner under very un
favorable circumstances for want of
; b-tter bunches and more of them. We
have noticed these boys down on their
j k,ees with their hooKs and tablets on
! ine benches before tin-m more than
; half an hour a* « time at woik on
thirir lessons We know 1 he trustees
i in*-d seve ral times to provide better
seats, a blackboard and writing table,
! but for some reaso' . we do not know
' why, they fulled We only allude to
! these facts here now in the hope that
: before tha next school term all these
j r ecessary fixtures wil! be prcv.dcd
and in p.ac-.
A great many of our farmers up
here are preparing to u.-e a home
made fertilizer which they say is a
great deal cheaper than guano A
traveling saiee-uiun uusst-d through

right to use certain chemicals in the
preparation. We hope the very best
results may be the outcome of this
enterprise.
A considerable amount of improve

up several tenant houses. He has
also put up a new burn and stable on
the old home place.

THERE IS AN INDEFINABLE
SOMETHING ABOUT
OUR
MEN'S SUITS FOR SPRING
Hint bespeaks clothes character. The styles are original
and distinctive. The many new kinks in the tailoring

and nine times out ol ten it does not make up as you
anticipate, but its to your order and you take it.

that ready-to-wear clothes have long since come out of
the rut and now possess all tlwit is perfect in men’s
apparel.
