THE SPIDER AND THE FLY
Doubtless many if not all who
read this advertisement have
heard or read of the awful fate
that befell the poor little fly that
was allured to its death by the
assumed friendliness of the wick
ed and blood-thirsty spider.
There are spiders of many
kinds, but they are not of the
same species, nor do they all be
long to the same family. There is
the human or two-legged spider
that reminds one of the real
thing by the methods they adopt
to catch the unwary and unsus
pecting, and, woe to the poor fel
low that allows himself to fall into
their trap. He may be a little
more fortunate than the fly and
escape with his life, but he will
have little of the long green left,
and but little to show for it. We
use no clap-trap methods to catch
business, but do business strictly
on business principles. We have
no pets in business, treat all alike,
ona price to all and your money
back when you are not satisfied.
We make our money in the
buying, not in the selling, and
guarantee to save you something
on every purchase.

A special series of services will com
mence at the First Baptist church
next Sunday in which Rev. W. C.
Newton, of the FiMt Baptist church
of Greensboro, N. C., will assist the

Mr. Newton’s father, mother and

cause of Christ in Africa, and but re
cently Mr. Newton and his wife have
decided to go as missionaries to China.
They will be appointed at an early
date. The Piedmont Association of
North Carolina has undertaken their
support, so these meetings he will
bold in our town may be the last mes

bear to an American audience.
Pastor Cree says of him: “He is
the brightest, most vigorous and
most consecrated young minister in
the state of North Carolina, and I am
delighted that it will be the privilege
of our people to hear him."
The services will be held at the
usual hours and the public is cordial
ly invited to attend.
