We have been asked repeatedly, during
the past two or three weeks, whether we in
tended to again make one of our famous
January sales or not, and when it would be-
gin. For various reasons we had decided
not to do so. 1893 has not been the grand
ly successful business year that every one so
fondly anticipated short year ago. The
stringency in the land has made the buyer
cautious, and prices Especially in Dry Goods
have been showed down lower than ever be-
fore, and many businesshouses will find no
balance on the profit side for the entire
year. Another reason was this: We have
been very prudent in buying this year, and
consequently, are not loaded with surplus
stock that will cripple US to carry over until
another season. These and other reasons
partly decided us to forego this year our ac-
customed sale. But since this decision was
reached, we have been besieged from all
parts of the county, in person by hundreds,
by mail by the score, to reverse this and
again give the people months special sale.
So many and SO urgent we're the requests
that we have been forced to yield and there
fore take extreme pleasure in announcing
that for one ,OhoIe month tce are going to do
business for glory, for one ,vhole month tCe
are going to be phiIGnthropists, and in our
way do good, for one whole month toe are
going to offer our entire magnificent stock
to the first coniers at unheard of low prices,
upon one condition only, and that ia that

month pay us spot cash Ior the prtuilega
This is not asking too much and will be
strictly adhered to. We expect to lose
many hundreds of dollars during this
month but we do it cheer.ully and wish it to
be looked upon as SO much donated to char
liable purpose. We do not intend to spend
much money blowing this sale. Please call

and other bad social habits. Well, we see
nothing especially wrong in this order; as if
every postal clerk is under watch over his

ADVERTISING RATES.
After the Holidays
are Over.


Then's when we come down
to earth again and begin to
think of the practical things
of life. After the effusion of
sentiment it's a good time to
get back to bed rock Judgment.
It's a glorious season to buy,
because this is the season when
the knife is in the profits and
you get the goods at way
down figures. One might say
it is the midway season-be-
tween the Holidays and the
opening of spring trade--just
the season for bargains. At
this season it will pay one to
buy even goods that are not
required for immediate@use--
prices are so low.
Saur & Balsley have many
useful and ornamental articles
left over from their big Holi-
day trade which will be given
almost at your own price, in
order to make room for goods
which will soon be in season.
Then their assortment of books
is still large and complete, and
this is just the time to buy
books, good and standard
books at that, cheap, very
cheap, in fact surprisingly
cheap. As nothing adds more
to the comfort of a home than
books, now is the time to take
advantage of this opportunity
to secure them. This sale is
an excellent chance to replen-
ish your libraries, If you are
SO fortunate as to have one,
and if not it is good time to
commence the foundation of
one. Saur & Balsley are head
quarters for books.
The other departments Of
their establishment are COM
plete in every particular.
Their drugs are always pure
and fresh and their facilities
for compounding prescriptions
are the best. In patent medI-
cine they take the lead, keep
ing in stock all the old aud
new discoveries in this line.
Their paints and oils have a
standard reputation for purity
and lasting qualities. The
paints sold by them are old and
reliable brands, which have
been before the public for
years, and have always given
satisfaction. The wall paper
department is complete and
contains many fine and stylish
patterns. Improve your
homes by placing upon its
walls and ceilings tasty paper,
it adds to it's comforts ten
fold. Here also will be found
an excellent selection Of win
dow shades and fixtures. You
can adorn your windows at a
small outlay by selecting pat
terms to be found at Saur 4
Balsley's.
AS spring approaches, house
wives will commence to think
Of re- e-painting and re-papering,
in order to brush up the ap-
pearance Of the inside Of their
homes. Saur & Balsley would
request that all such call in
and see them before making
their selections elsewhere, as
they pride themselves upon
their stock of paints and wall
papers and decorations, and
can offer prices which are hard
to duplicate.

In Memorian.

Mrs. Belle Fauver, wife of Jay Fauver, of
Ridgeville, departed this life December
18th, 1893, after short but painful illness
of about two weeks, b eng afflicted with
inhammatory rheumatism and heart dis
ease. Her sufferings were terribly heart
rending until death brought sweet relief
Her age was 35 years and months at the
time of her decease. and, she left hus-
band and one child to mourn her un-
timely end. Her maiden name was John
son, and her father was soldier of the late
war, dying in the service. Mrs. Fauver was
q woman of christian character, having been
for many years aeonstant member of the
M. E. Church at Ridgeville Corners, and was
also teacher in the Sunday School. Her
fuueral services were performed under the
direction of the Rev. l.. E. Wilson, and
were attended by a large concourse of peo-
pie after which her remains we're deposited
in Locust Grove Cemetery. The following
memorial poem was read at the funeral:
Another family group is sad,
While the angelic host is glad.
Another voice ts hushed on earth,
happier one in Heaven has birth.
Another chair is vacant now,
Another crown rpon brow,
Another face is seen no more,
Another shouts, "My warfare's DER"
Another husband sad and lone,
Another wife calls Heaven home;
Another child left motherless,
But Jesus called, and he knows best.
All might we say when death doth come,
To thin the ranks within our home,
Z "Thank God," the hour is blest,
That take us to eternal rest.
Dear sister Belle, is free from care,
While we life's burdens still must bear,
Who next may go no one can tell,
If Christ be with us all is we'll
