are profoundly thankful for their timely
help. There are others, however, who

The Hartwell (Ga.) Sun, OF last Friday,
says: "Mr. George Haynie aud sister,
Miss Frances. of Bolton, s. c., came near
losing their lives by drowning on last
Friday. They were returning from a
visit to Bowersville, and made an attempt
to cross Lightwoodlog Creek at the ford
below the Hartwell railroad trestle. The
stream was badly swollen by the heavy
rains, and When they reached the current
the buggy and mules were swept down
stream. By almost superhuman efforts
Mr.. Haynie succeeded in getting the
traces loose, and the mules made turn
throwing the occupants out of the buggy.
Fortunately they drifted against the foot
log, which Mr.. Haynie drew himself upon
and then pulled his sister out Of the surg
ing waters by her hair. Had it not have
been for the footlog they would have been
cd when they got out. They buggy was
swept down the creek, and the umbrella
and cushion were lost. Mr.. Haynie and
sister also lost their hats, and their valise
was carried down the creek some distance,
but was recovered. Tho young gentle
man and lady were invited to Mr.. r. e,
Landers' house near the ford, aud were
kindly cared for until the next day, when
they resumed their journey home.'

WE ARE GRATlFIED

by almost constantly receiving from our customers IN every
part of the United States, commendatory letters as to our
promptness and correctness in filling orders, and we take this
occasion to say, that all such expressions are particularly graft
flying, as they show that our efforts, which are earnest, are not
in vain. We pride ourselves upon this, and propose so FAR as
possible, to continue to merit the good opinion OF all those who
favor us with their valued orders. We cannot, however, con-
ceal from ourselves the fact that despite the best care, errors
and omissions will sometimes happen; a careless clerk will leave
something out of an order or will make a poor substitution, and
unless the customer is kind enough to call our attention to the
fact, we may never know it, but this we do know, that our pat
ron, perhaps hundreds of miles away, is inconvenienced and
annoyed as she had a right to look for the best service in en-
trusting her order to us.
We therefore desire, to emphatcally state to customers who
shop by mail or otherwise, that our aim is always to give the
best service, and failing in this, we stand ready to correct any
errors that may be made, and we would esteem it favor if our
friends would promptly notify us of the facts in the compare
lively few instances, where mistakes occur.
