How TO LIVE EcoNoMICALLY.-The
problem Of how to economic in living
is one that engages the serious atten-
ton of a great many people. "Many a
little makes a mickle," was n of Ben
iamin Franklin's truisms, that sumar-
ICES the whole system of popular ex-
travagance. If you wish to save mon
ey, economic, and the only way to do
this thoroughly and properly is to call
at the Emporium of E. Phillips on Main
street; Opelousas. There you will get
yOur calicOs at ten cents per yard, cot
tons ten cents per yard, stockings ten
cents per pair, and everything else pro-
p%ortiOnately cheap. Phillips, ever en-
ergetie, is receiving additions to his al
ready large stock by every boat, and
offers these tremendous inducements to
all and we guarantee every word of it.
So we solve the problem quickly. Call
on Phillips and spend your few dollars.
This is real economy. So Phillips says.
