MONDAY is A BIG DAY.
Those Who Visit McKennOn Bros l.
Anderson, Go Home Happy.

Hosiery day last Monday brought a
large and enthusiastic crowd to our
store and satisfaction beamed on
every face as they left our house.
When we bought the McEwen &
Dale stock last February, they had
$4,000 worth of shoes. OF course we
have sold the greater portion of these
goods, but we still have in our stock
253 pairs of ladies and 80 pairs of
mems shoes that we have not placed
in our previous bargain sales for the
reason that it seemed like losing too
much at one time. However we have
concluded to get them out of our store
at once. These shoes cost Wholesale,
from 50. to $685. per pair, and were re-
tailed at from So. to So. per pair.
The sizes of the ladies shoe are from
to and the mems from to 10. For
next Monday June, 18th, our price for
this entire lot will be $1.69 per pair,
spot cash.
If you think you will need a pair
of shoes any time during this and
next year you had better buy a pair
of these and lay them away.
When you call to buy the shoes let
us show you the best % cents fast
black hoes that was ever shown
across a counter in this city.
Try a pair of our WaukenhOse for
men. They fit the foot, wear longer
and more comfortable than any other
kind of socks.

DIR. LOUIS H. MATTHEz.
The Noted OcuIO Optician Visits
Columbia
Well and FavOrabIy Known to the Co
D,,HIf.

Well and FavOrabIy known to the CO.
Iumbia Public.
At the solicitation of many citi-
zens of Columbia, DIR. Louis H. Mat
thez has concluded to visit our city
for brief stay, and is now at the
Bethel House to remain for q short
time only, We clip the following
from the Nashville American:
"Most of the citizens of Nashville
remember Drs. Benhardt and Mat
thez, the celebrated opticians who
visited this city during the winter OF
1856, and who so effectually revolu-
tiOnized the spectacle business in
Tennessee. The firm as it then stood,
has been dissolved, and DIR. Matthez
continues to conduct the business on
the same principles as before, and
with all the skill formerly brought to
bear on the practice. He is Thoroughly
equipped for the service, and at his
parlors in the Maxwell house will be
prepared to fit and suit glasses to the
eyes of those who have hitherto been
unable to procure such as would in
anyway give satisfaction.
"Dr. Matthez needs no introduction
at the hands of the American. His
work-much of il, remains in Nash
vile to this day; aud is monument
to the consummate skill and splendid
ability with which it was executed.
"Dr. Matthez will remain in Nash
vile but q short time, and those who
wish to visit him should do so as
early as possible.
"Dr. Matthez is not an occulist. He
does not treat diseases of the eye.
He is an oculo optician, and can fur
nish glasses through which people
who have very Indifferent eye-sight
may see as we'll as they ever did.
"It is certainly worth the while to
pay DIR. Matthez a visit if your eye
sight is in any wsy defective. You
will be kindly received at the DOCTORS
rooms in the Maxwell House, where
consultation is at all times free"
The DIR. is at the Bethel House,
and parties desiring his services, can
find him in the back ladies' parlOr,
which he is using as his office and
consultation room.
