Gaffney, S. C
The most brilliant gem that was aver
taken from the earth would not
amount to much if there were no peo
ple to appreciate its beauty and to vie
with each other for its possession.
The most spacious store,
the most carefully selected
stock of goods, the clever
est corps of clerks will not
avail unless people know
about them.
Knowledge of such
things is spread in various
ways. A passerby may
drop in and be impressed.
He may tell his neighbor,
and he in turn may tell
somebody else.
That is one way, and
there are some merchants
who today think it is good
enough. Modern develop
ment, however, has sup
plied in newspapers the best
means. They go into ev
ery home in the land, how
ever humble, however mag
nificent. Through them all
of the information can be
supplied, not to one, but
to thousands.
Are you using this paper to
the best advantage?
Easter Tide
Suggests doors and windows thrown wide open and the
letting in of plenty of fresh air, the perfume of flowers
and the songs of the little birds. That is the suggestion
to the*poet and sentimentalist. What does it suggest to
you?—a new hat, a new dress, the discarding of your
flannels for lighter wear and the putting on of Oxfords
and Slippers. The question as to the best place to buy
naturally arises in ‘your mind. If you are a customer
here you have no doubt about the place—a trial makes a
permanent customer. If you have not patronized us be
fore, come in and let us serve you.
Spring Hosiery
We carry a full line of Spring Hosiery for Men, Women
and Children. You can find what you want here, both
in fancy and staple Hosiery.
We are well pleased with our start in Millinery. Business
in this department was better the last two seasons than
ever before and bids fair to eclipse either of those two
this season. We have made some changes in this depart
ment which we are pleased to note have added much to
the appearance. Under the management of Mrs. Gurley
and her efficient help, you need have no fears—they have
both taste and conscience, and will give you your
money’s worth every time.
Our Dress Goods department is alive with good things in
both Wool Goods and Cotton Fabrics—Silks, Voiles,
Twine Cloths. Batistes, Veilings, Sicilians, Mozonettes, |
Eolians, Homespuns, Henriettas, &c., comprise some of
the things. New Ginghams for the Children, ^Young
Ladies, and Ladies of mature years, White Lawns, Ba
tistes, Mercerized White Gooc’s, Knicker Suitings, Per
cales, &c.
Oxford Ties and Slippers
We have the fullest and most complete assortment of
these we have ever brought to this market. We have a
stock that will please you. Men’s Shoes and Oxfords,
the best makes and styles.
