and in most cases cleat of grass.
Mr. A. W. Gagg is in Charleston
this week undergoing a surgical
operation on his nose, which organ
- has been troubling him of late as
the result of a hurt received thereon
in his boyhood. In common
with his many friends we hope the
treatment will prove successful.
The Star Tobacco Warehouse of
Lake City invites the patronage of
Williamsburg's tobacco growers
through the columns of The
Record. For square and liberal
dealing the management of this
warehouse has built up an enviable
reputation during the past three
years. The Star is better prepared
than ever this year to handle tobacco
and satisfaction is guaranteed to
its patrons.
Th?? P<w->nlr>'s Tiihunpn Warehouse.
of Manning, under now management
makes a bid for Williamsburg
tobacco through our columns.
A glance at the members of the
company is sufficient guarantee of
fair and honest treatment, as they
include some of Clarendon's best
known and most successful business
men. Don't fail to read the
advertisement of the People's
Warehouse.
Another small boy came to grief

We desire to say to our friends
and patroas that we are still carry- .
ing on business at the old stand,
where we are better chau ever before
prepared to serve them.
This will be perhap3 the hardest
year that our farmers hare had to .
contend with since the war, and feeling
this ourselves we are going to
make it a study to try to place provisions
of all kiuds in Kingstree for ^
as little money as they possibly can
be laid down here for and sold on a ,
strictly cash basis. Any business
mau knows that Corn, Grits, Bacon,
Molasses, Flour and such like goods
are the same as money. And what
our people need in Kingstree is a
man who is able to cope with the
outside business world and bring
them to their doors as cheap as they
can get them many market. This
can only be done with the money,
uud at the outset we want to tell our
customers that it takes money to run
this kind of business, ft never has
been attempted here before. It is
purely experimental, and whether it
shall succeed or fail depends upon
the support the people shall give it.
In this day and age in Order to keep
up with the markets of the world
a man has to study themand make it a
bnsiuesa and get prices way down in
order co know when and where to
buy. With these introductory
remarks we v,ant now brietly to tell
you some of the goods we handle,vu:
CORN', SUGAR,
OATS, COFFEE,
HAY, CIGARS,
GRITS, TOBACCO,
MEAL, SALT,
STARCH, CANDY.
FLOUR, CHEESE,
LARD, . CRACKERS,
BACON,. MOLASSES,
BUTTER, STAR LYE,
SOAP, OIL,
CANNED GOODS.
For prices come, to see us. We
sell the goods just as low as they can
be sold.
