Never threaten, becauso a threat is a

Of course you're in no position yet to

Men We Want to Talk To:
We believe that if every man in Laurens was a
clothing expert?if every man, in Lanrens knew
the positive facts in the case?that every man in
Lanrens would come straight to us for all his
Clothing. Koch week we will publish a little ar
gument on this subject. This week's argument is
directed
To the Man who
Wants the Newest Styles.
As a matter of fact, there is
no other store in Laurens
that keeps in constant touch
with the style-changes like
we do. As soon as the
manufacturers have brought
out a new design, we arc
notified?thus the latest
styles arc constantly among
our showing.
If a man wants to be
sure of wearing up-to-the
minute styles in clothing,
there is only one store in
Laurens to seek?

are headquarters for all the

KEEP YOUR TEETH.
It's quite easy to keep them, and to keep them sound and white.
But to do so requires a little daily care. Thorough
brushing with a good brush and a little dentifrice
will prevent decay?a clean tooth will
not decay in a hundred years.
Right Tooth Brushes.
A Tooth Brush is a little thing, but it pays to use a good one
and it's well to buy them at the right price. Vfe
have a splendid stock of the best sorts of tooth
^brushes ; genuine tooth savers, and we
make close prices on them.
Also carry a line of the best dentifrices ; pastes, powders
and liquids.
