~ in Commercial Circles The
Rest Evidence of Growth

The trade ut Abbevillc has been good, de
spite the fact Of the low price Of cotLon, and
the TACT that many farmers are holding their
cotton. The price Is next TO starvation prices,
and hence many OF them Will not sell. Our
stores have been busy, and II fs with great
pleasure that we note evidences Of the return
OF much OF our former trade that was cut of
several years ago. by the building OF new
and the merchants ure able 10 offer such lh-
ducements ns will bring trnde from long dis
tances. Already many planters In distant
parts have signifed their Intention to come
years. They find that Abbeville after all, is
the best place to deal with.
With a little more effort on the part OF our
merchants all imme Dse trade could now be
turned this way the people are ready for the
chnngc Having gone TO distant markets, or
to nearer markets, for the sake or convcn-
AbbeviIle, their first love, is best OF all.
We trust, therefore. that our friends In dis.
tant parts, will not forget the superior advan-
tageS which our town Is prepared to offer in
the Of trade. and we also hope, that each and
every business firm In town will consider
himself on special committee Of one TO In
duce some new customer 10 come this way.
The vaults of our banks are full of money
seeking Investment, aud those who need this
ready cash should come this way. Our stores
are briin full OF choice goods.
The fact Is, that Abberille has every advan.
tage aud special effort should be made 10
show trade from distant paris, ana our trlenoS
in distant paris, and our friends In distant
parts knowing that we want their trade
SHOULD come and consult our business men.
1t will cost no cash to look around and see
what can be done. If we can make II TO your
advantage to trade with us, we Will be de-
lighted at he business relation. 4 wise sell-
or and prudent buyer will lose nothing by
examiu Ing the markets and consulting with
different business firms.
In all the lines of goods we are ready to
serve the public, and our extending business
induces our merchants to make still more
liberal terms.
