We had a call Tuesday from Messrs.
G.. E. Brawner and J. n. Marsh, rep
resenting the National Collection
Agency, of Washington, D. G. They
are here in the interest of their COM

and have little trouble in securing
memberships when their methods of do
ing business are explained. From
letters and testimonials in their pos
session it appears that the National

Will You Do 1t?
Friends of the GOLD LEAF in both
town and country, are requested to send
us for publication any news items Of a
local nature that would be of interest to
the general public. 1t is our earnest
desire to make it journal of real value,
and to contain all the news of a local
nature that may occur. Frequently
there are deaths or marriages in the
country that we do not hear of until
weeks haye elapsed when 1t is 100 late
to make note of them on the ground
that then such .:newsi' is no news at
all to many of our readers.
Received this week, a new stock OF
Zieglers and Bay State Shoes. Best
wearers and most stylish shoes, sold
only by S. WATKINS.
A lot of nice country cured Hams-also

ceived at H. THOMASONS.
