Spring Business.

In to-day's paper will be found Il rous-
ing advertisement from the enterprising
firm, Whitley & Henson. They take the
field thus early because they intend to
use every effort to please the people and
deserve their custom. 7Aey mean 6usi-
ness! They viii leave nothing undone
which il is in their power to do TO make
their business quarters all the people
can desire, as TO the magnitude
of their stock, excellence of their goods,
and low cash prices. They intend their
store shall be more of bee hive for
business than ever. The excellent iudg-
ment of Mr.. Whitley in the selection of
goods has never been exercised with
more care, and now these goods must be
sold. The first move they make is for
the use of printers ink. They believe
in advertising, and that is sufficient
guaranty that everything in that store
will be found as represented, and that
whitley & Henson's is the place 10 go
for bargains.
