Postmaster Jacobs is in receipt o

for the mail addressed to it." If th<
patrons of that office want mail ac
commodation nearer than Kingstre*
it behooves them to "get busy" an<
recommend a new postmaster. Wi
understand that the cause of th<
discontinuance of the office is tha
the present incumbent refuses t<
serve longer and no eligible persoi
has applied for the position.
Owing to the continued wet weath
er, progress on the work of ditchinj
and laying water mains has beei
somewhat retarded on the Kingstre*

Co, of Atlanta, Ga, who has th<
work in charge, informs us tha
with a spell of favorable weathe
and an additional force of laborers
he will be able to push the worl
well ahead during the next tw<
weeks. Work on the pumping sta
tion, setting the large boilers, etc
is now under way, and the erectioi
of the huge one hundred foot stee
tank, or reservoir, will be commenc
ed in a few days.
DR. H. U. REESE
Graduate of the New York Opthalmii
tollege, 1897.
Twenty-five years' practical ex
perience in optometry and refractioi
work.
Do you need glasses? Have yoi
any eye or nerve trouble? If &
take advantage of this opportunit;
to consult an eye specialist in you
home town while he is here. D
Reese can be found at the jewelr;
store of Watts & Watts, where h
will make all examinations free, an<
fully guarantee of all his work.
Dr Reese practices under the law:
of the National Optometry associs
tion, and is a member of the Soutl
, Carolina Optical association. He as
sures you skillful scientific attentio
and will tell you whether you nee<
glasses or treatment.
Dr Reese has been in Kingstre
before,where he has quite a numbe:
? ? ? . . it. i ?.1.
ot satisnea pauenis. ne nas miei
hundreds of .glasses all over Wil
1 ilamsburg county in the past si:
years. Few people realize the grav
' importance of consulting a thor
oughly competent and experience!
. optician when any eye trouble show
up. The eye, next to the heart, i
, perhaps the most delicate and valu
able organ of the body. If.througl
neglect, it becomes disarranged, i
becomes your master, and with th
loss of it you are helpless.
1 School children should come am
let me examine their eyes. You
eyes are worth many hundred time
! times the price of a pair of glasses
Poor or impaired eyesight means i
handicap, no matter what your posi
fir?n in life Dr Reese will be a
