DR.. HARTMAN SAYS

Now Is the Time to Guard Against
Colds-ihe First Colds Weather.
In recent lecture at the Surgical
Hotel DIR. Hartman is reported as
saying that no one need catch cold
if he is willing to give the matter
slight attention; that a cold is the
beginning of chronic catarrh, con-
sumption, disease of the liver, stom.
ach, kidneys and pelvic organs. All
this could be prevented by taking
his advice. The doctors professional
duties compelled him, for many
years, to be much OF the road night
and day, by carriage, railroad aud
steamboat. During all this time he
never caught a cold. This could
not have been done without Peru
ma, he says. At the slightest evil
dence of a cold few doses of Pc
ru-na invariably check it.
This is especially seasonable ad-
vice, for the cold winter is here,
with its storms, sudden changes,
slop, rain and snow. Thousands of
people will contract diseases from
which they will never recover, by
catching cold. DR.. Hartman's advice
should be needed. Pc ru ma cures
catarrh of any stage or location It
is the most popular remedy for la
| grippe, coughs, colds, etc
Send for free copy of an illus
trated book on cata,rh. It contains
sixty four pages Of valuable iustruc
tion. Address The Pc ru.na Drug

We want to impress on the minds S

that every clerk in our employ is

CASH GROCERY.

As has been our usual custom to
reduce our stock by the first Of the
New Year for invoicing, SO we will
give some extremely low prices from
now until New Year. 1t seems
strange to US, how some people can
do business and sell at "Cost, and
what seems more strange, is, while
we are not selling at cost, our selling
price On the best quality of goods,
is lower than their cost price. Still
when we stop to think of the long
experience we have had in the gro
Gerry business, and the close atten-
ton we have given it, to learn what
all class of goods cost the manufac-
turers to prepare them for the mar
ket, and having the cash to buy
with, and buying in such large quan
titles, enables us to buy goods at 20 |
per cent less than the average gro
Gerry man. Having this advantage,
besides very large trade, enables
US to buy only the very best goods,
and sell them at the cheap stuff
prices.
We buy nothing but the best in
every line we handle, and everything
we sell you is warranted. Our oat
flake, ore oven baked of the finest
white oat and does not gum togeth.
or when cooked. Our pearl hominy
is made of hominy corn, and every
particle OF the hull taken off. Our
Sc Rice is whole white Carolina rice.
Our Java blend coffee is a mixture
of Jaw, Santos and Rio, and the
best coffee for the money by SC per
lb. that is sold in Bates county.
It makes no difference what other
merchants may tell you, we give you
the plain facts, and will continue to
do so 80 long as we remain in busi-
ness. Some merchants seem to
think, or at least they have been
runniny on that plan, that the only
way to advertise their goods, is to
run down other merchants goods,
and nine times out of ten, we are
the ones they fling their vile at first.
Why Because we are selling the
good, and at prices little too low
to suit them.
We have on hands nearly four
thousand dollars worth of glassware
and Chinaware, in fact, we have a
larger and finer assortment than is
usually displayed in the large cities,
which you can see for yourself by
calling at our store, and at about
half the price they would charge
you; how is that? Well, in the first
place, we imported our goods our
selves from France and Germany
and got them as cheap as any house
in America could buy them; in the
second place, it costs in large cities
ten times the expense to sell them as
it does US, as our expenses are COM
paratively nothing.
We have mugs, cups and saucers,
child's sets, vases, cake plates, su
gars and creams, tea sets by the
hundreds, from Sc each up to as fine
as you want. We bought 100 fine
Vase and Banquet Lamps, have al
ready sold over half of them; we are
actually selling prettier and much
finer lamp than we ever handled be
fore, at less than half the price we
had to ask you last year. Why?
Because we bought them last March
from the factory, at factory prices
delivered. We advise all parties
wanting a fine lamp at the cheap
price to come and buy it now; as
they will all be gone before New
Yyar, and we cannot buy them as
cheap again this year, as the facto-
ries have all closed for the season.

He is conscious today, having stood
the operation of trepanning very well.
considern his condition. and is now as
comfortable as the best of surgical skill
and careful nursing can make him. He
will be kept at the hospital for the pres
ent, of course, and is not allowed to talk,
though it is said that he remembers
nothing of the accident.
DR.. Hodge has freely rendered his aid
in every way, and the hospital accommo-
datlons and appliances have been at the
disposal OF the physician in charge at all
times. which is greatly appreciated both
by the family and the physician in
charge, the Terminal railroad surgeon,
DR.. Rowland.
Nothing new has developed to vary the
account given yesterday. The crossing is
q particularly dangerous one owing to
an approaching train not being seen
until tight at the crossing, and great
precaution should be used there both by
trainmen and people crossing the track.
