A FEW WORDS?
-TO 01 FRIENDS.
MR. EDITOR:
You may have had us in mind when referring in a recent
issue of your paper to the peculiarity of merchants in regtrd
to advertising, in which you quoted them as saying that "in
good times it was not necessary to advertise, and in hard times
it did not pay." While we have always found that advertising
paid us, wc must confess that for the past sixty days any in?
crease of business that we might secure by that means, could
not have been satisfactorily waited on, as our clerical force has
been taxed to its utmost capacity.
Now that the rush of cotton is over and we have au
opportunity to say a few words to our friends in the country,
we desire to acknowledge, through the columns of the Watch?
man and Southron, our grateful thanks to them for the liberal
patronage bestowed upon us, for which we can offer nothing in
return except our p'romise that their interests will be as care?
fully guarded by us in the future as they have been in the past.
It is particularly gratifying to us to*Jacknowledge a very
liberal trade during the months of September and October from
our farming friends, to whom it was our pleasure to extend a
credit during the summer. It proves to us that they appreciate
our endeavor to be just and reasonable with them, when they
need assistance, as we have always tried to be?our motto
being / ?
LIVE AND LET LIVE
Although we tried to anticipate this season's wants by
buying a heavier stock than ever before, our trade has so far
exceeded our expectations, that we have been obliged to re?
plenish frequently and freely every department of our store.
In Dry Goods
We bought a very heavy stock of staples, a fair percentage
of which we still have on hand and are selling at old prices,
Those
Tar Heel Blankets
Which you have been waiting for so long have come at
last. It was not our fault that they were not here sooner as
our contracts were made in May for September delivery, but
the mill has been so crowded with orders it was impossible to
deliver them sooner. These goods are made in
A Southern Mill
From Southern Wool,
By Southern Men
and there are none better. They are improving on the fini-h
every year. We are/selling at the same price as last yea-; but
if we have to duplicate we will be obliged to charge an advance.
We only have about
FIFTY PAIRS,
so don't put off buying, or you may get left.
SHOE!*.
Why the advance in cotton should have affected the price of
shoes, but strange to say they too have gone up. We den't
know whether it was judgment or luck, but our purchases for
Fall were nearly double our usual contracts. We are buying
now for Spring and paying 10 to 15 per cent more for the same
class of goods, but those oi hand will go at the old prices while
they last.
In our write-up about Shoes last Fall we had something spe?
cial to sav about
The H. G. Godman Line for Women and Children.
Our increased sales for these goods prove that we told the t ruth.
Bear in mind we are still the Sole Agents for them and
Guarantee every Pair
THE L. M. REYNOLDS LINE OF MEN'S SHOES, sold
exclusively by us, are trade-winners. The prices range from
$1.75 to $3 60, and every pair warranted. If you want the
best (3.00 shoe buy a Reynolds.
CLOTHING.
This has certainly been our banner season in the clothing
business, and if there are any of the men or boys in tho county
who have not bought a suit, it has not been our fault ; but fear?
ing there still may be a lew unprovided, we are keeping up our
stock by telegraphing orders for shipment by express.
if you need an overcoat Bee us before buying, as we have
some great values.
In our Hat and Furnishing Goods De?
partment will be found some values that compare favora?
bly wit It the balance of our stock.
This announcement would not be complete without a
word about our
GROCERY STOCK.
This department is up to the usual standard, and thai it
saying about all that is necessary for it. Our MILLBUuNH
FLOUR, of which wc believe there i< more sold in this county
than other brand, is pronounced by those who use it unsur?
passed.
