TO THE PUBLIC.

One year ago, we succeeded in bus
mess the old firm of Earns & Lyell,
and although partially strangers, we
sold during 1889 nearly double what
the old firm sold in 1888. We are
egotistic enough to believe there is
some good reason for this increase of
business in this house, and we believe
the real reason is "we adopted a more
liberal policy toward our customers,
and We're satisfied with smaller
profits"
We sold cheaper and the exper-
iment was successful. We enjoyed
big trade, and collected nearly
every dollar we sold.
We again offer our services to the
public, inviting business intercourse
from all those who are willing to
trust us. We handle every kind
of goods needed by the farmers, and
we buy them as low as anybody else,
and can sell on as little profit. The
fact is, our expenses are smaller than
any house in WessOn. While some
goods will be cheaper this year than
last, we wish to say we have no big
ger or better promises to make than
last year. We expect to act con-
scientiously in every transaction
and we intend to sell as cheap
as anybody else, and we are prepared
to do it! But we expect to do legiti-
mate business. We are not going to
fish for trade with "baits," we have no
big capital to blow about, no spasm
of wonderful reforming powers has
seized us,-but we are here to stand
or fall on the record we have made.
"lt is safe to judge the future by the
past" The people of the country
know us. We have handled over 5000
bales of cotton this winter, we sold
over 100000 worth of goods in 1889,
and we have endeavored to act "upOn
the square" with everybody, and
with that for our motto, we invite a
business trial with us, promising
square treatment and liberal prices for
your cotton and produce.
Wishing you happy, prosperous
year, and with our thanks for past
patronage, and hoping continuation
of your business, and that we will
merit in the future as in the past your
friendship and good will, we re-
main, Yours Truly,
EARNS, FAINT & LONG,
Wesson, Miss.

Some of the wisest of the party
have advocated the necessity for the
Convention. 1t has been called, and
that is an end to the matter. 1t is no
use to discuss dead issues, but we
must turn our attention to the living,
breathing question that confronts us.
What the result will be, no prophet is
here to tell us. We only know that
the issue is impending and that it be-
hOoves all who love country, peace
and good government to bend all
their energies and talents to make for
themselves the wisest and best Con-
stitution that intelligence can suggest,
morals indorse and patriotism cement.

The LEADER asks its readers in
this county to be soberly considering
the question as to who is the best and
wisest man to represent them in the
Constitutional Convention in August.
Let there be no mistake made in this
matter. We cannot afford it. We
repeat what we have said before-the
trust should seek the man and not the
man the trust.

The valentine party at the residence
of Mrs. r. HI. Thompson Feb. 14th was
a great success. The hospitable doors
were thrown open at seven o'clock
and soon the rooms were filed with
expectant boys and girls.
The first thing on the program was
the distribution of valentines. Every
one present received one or more
valentines and the delighted manner
of the recipients showed that the Y's
and others had been fortunate in Sc
Letting valentines. After the distri-
button followed some fine singing and
playing. After the musical perform
ances were over, the Y's proposed
some very interesting games, which
every one enjoyed.
The best part of the entertainment
was the presentation of handsome
cake from Mr.. C. z. Martz to the Y's.
The Y's feel deeply grateful to Mr..
Martz and return vote of thanks to
him in acknowledgement of his kind.

see man drunk, but rather cOngratu-

broken, it stands as the incarnation

The oldest citizen of Gallatin, Co.
piah county, says he remembers well
the winter of 1S41, for that was the
year he came to the State from his
native home. 1t was balmy and
as pleasant as the winter we are now
wondering at. So was the winter of
1916, and that he could not forget, as
then he was married. In 1861 it was
equally as unreasonable, and being the
first year of the war of course the
weather is engraven on his memory.

Lecture on Fire Insurance by
Judge Nathan CleaSes.

Judge Nathan Cleaves gave very en-
tertaining and instructive lecture before
the Law Students Club recently upon
Fire Insurance.
He described policy of insurance as
an agreement by which one party under
takes for certain consideration to in
demnify another party against loss by
fire. He described the various condi-
tions usual in policies of insurance,
showing what were valid and sustained
by the decisions of the court and those
which had been annulled by the statutes
of the State.
After pointing out the course to be pur-
sued by the insured in case Of loss by dre,
he discussed the various defences to ac-
tions on policies. saying that he regarded
the clause in policies that all fraud and
false swearing shall cause forfeiture of
all claim under the policy as the only sub
stantial ground of defence In insurance
cases. He cited opinions from the late
Judge Fox and members Of our State
court upon this point, and said while the
Supreme Court had justly overruled all
technical defences it discountenanced and
denied sll fraudulent claims against in
surance companies.

Brought into prominence by DR.. Sails
bury, who committed the error of most
enthusiasts of regarding it as psnsces
for most diseases, it has now been sdopt-
ed by the profession as a most valuable
agent in many gastric troubles. By re
moving the products of fermentation, by
cleansing the mucous membrance OF
mucus, it restores tone and yigor to the
gastric lining, and enables the natural
forces to come into play. 1t is importsn,
to observe strict compliance with the rule
laid down by the originator, namely, that
the water should be slipped as hot
as possible, and that an hour should

of failures dus to neglect of this rule are
