1t is a good time now for business
men to engage their spaces for ad.
vertising for the fall trade, as the
position of an advertisement has
something to do with it's work in
bringing in customers. Advertis'
ing is science, and those who
study it the most, and use it, will
come out best at the end.
A bridge should be built ovel
Pistol creek, east of Hanna &
Thorn's wooden mill, and it should
be at least twelve feet high. Two
spans of twelve feet each would b.
sufficient. Then grade out to sui
the bridge on either side, and tn,
hill to the depot would, to quite a,
extent, be overcome. This would
be good improvement in the di
recti0n of accommodation to foo
passengers, for the sidewalk.
Farmers of Blount county, W,
