SUMTER, S. c., May 18th, 1891.
Our city has taken such a move
that it requires constant watch over
the needs of the people, in order that
the rapid progress will not find us
sleeping away our opportunities. We
therefore keep a sentinel on post al
ways with instructions to let none
pass that have dollar to spend. 1t
will not be necessary to give any spe-
cial countersign, all that you have to
do is to come to Sumter, visit our
store, and we will convince you in a
single transaction that we are the
leaders in the mercantile business OF
one of the best and leading business
centers in the State.
The way to prove any assertion is
to give practical test. We there
fore invite the people to make thor
ough inspection Of the goods daily
coming to our store, and if we do not
prove to them that we have as fine
assortment as can be found elsewhere
at less prices, then we won't insist on
selling them. We know what we've
got, and the cost of it, and we are sat
is6ed with living profit. Come and
secure rare bargains.
Very respectively,
LEVI BROTHERS.

WEAK WOMEN

The more sensitive nature of the female
sex renders women much more susceptible
than men to those numerous ills which
spring from lack of harmony in the system.
The nervous system gives way, sick head
ache is frequent, the appetite is lost, and
other ailments peculiar to the sex cause
great suffering. Hoods Sarsaparilla is pc
culiarly adapted to such cases. and has re-
ceived the most gratifying praise for he re-
lief it has afforded thousands of women
whose very existence before taking it was
only misery. It strengthens the nerves,
cures sick headache and indigestion, puri-
fes and vitalizes the blood. and gives regu-
lar and healthy action to every organ in the
bOdy
