GOV. Tiliman has issued his proclama-

dispensaries would be re-opened, and
! that the reinforcement Of the suspended
Act:of 1898, which 1t is generally conced-

Supreme Cours, would be enforced more

The Successful Advertiser !

IQ6 SUCCESSFUL AQV6TJlZer ]
Is the man who writes something the
people will read, and reading, believe. In
this age of education and enlightenment,
when men read and think for themselves,
all that stuff about "selling goods cheaper
than your competitors. buy them," being
the "only competent dealers in the line,"
"handling better stuff than anybody
else," &C., is mere clap trap, and subjects
the writer and the firm back Of 1t to the
contempt of all right-thinking people. The
man who has something to offer, and then
tells the folks about in q plain, business
way, is the man who ''gets there" and
getting there, stands.
Lots Of people handle Paint. Some
handle one kind, some another, but they
all realize, If they have any business sense
at all, that in order to make that business
permanent success 1t is absolutely neces.
sary to give the people the very best ma
terial. This we have tried to do, and at
price that puts it In the reach Of all.
In this connection we call attention to
the fact that crops are about laid by, time
Is plentiful, and little paint not only
freshens and beauties, but improves WON
derfully the sanitary condition Of the
premises. II your house is all right may
be the fence needs a coat. A little Paint
would keep that old buggy from falling
down, and the wagon might last year or
two longer by spending seventy-five cents
or dollar In Paint on it.
Remember this, the Longer you put it
off the more it takes and the less good 1t
does. Remember another thing, it costs
just as much, and takes just as much time,
to have cheap psIint put on as it does good
Paint. Always buy the best, even if you
pay more for 1t.
