take this amount of stock and that we

Weather for February.
The storms originating in January
will subside to eastward by the 2nd,
and the cold wave which followed
them will have crossed the country to
the Atlan,ic. About the 9TH and 9Th
marked reactionary storms will trans
pire, with good chances of being con-
tlnued to the 18th. Some hard storms
will occur, interspersed with unsettled
and threatepirg weather all along
these datess Rains, with lightning
and 7thunceT, win. be the order in the
south. Cyclones and tornadoes are
among the probabilities. Quick and
extreme changes to cold will follow al
general storms of the month. The 18th
and 18th will bring decided storm con-
ditions, with perhaps sudden sweep
ing cold wave, but the temperature
will react quickly to much warmer.
Look out for enormous rains about thi
time, followed by dangerous local
floods. The heaviest disturbances S:ll
occur from the Goth to the 24th, and
this storm period is apt to make rec
ord to be remembered. a great cold
wave will follow from the northwest
one that may prove terror to man
and beast. On all roads leading into
Edgefield town will be seen on the
26th, 27th, and 18th vast multitude
coming in to pay their taxes, for the
time will expire on the 1st of March.
On the 29th, Yaw, the wonderful can
tatrice, and Herr Sauer, the renowned
pianist, will give concert in our OPP
era House. Senators Tillman and But
Ter will hold lovefeas. in the court
house to which all are invited, and
President Cleveland, having arrived
to engage in his annual sparrow hunt.
will distribute gold eagles to all citi-
zens, white and colored, at the depot,
from the platform of his palatial car.
SO endeth the month OF February, the
"nawstiest" Of the twelve.
The Tariff Reduction q Reality.

many woollen goods went into ef-
feet the first of January, and we
propos to b. up with the times,
ami TO give our friends the full
benefit of this reduction. We have
decltled to sell our immense stock

bought in September upon the
very best terms and marked in
plain figures at low price, and
now you can get 90 per cent off
from the price. A suit that sold
for $15 vii now be $12. A suit
that sold for Sc will now be $3.50.

customers to see The tariff reduc-
