Particular People.

lar people, and we are glad of
it, for we are a little particu-
lar ourselves. People who
are particular about the goods.
they buy, who insist upon per-
lection as to durability, goods
to be as represented, best mas.
terials and quality, are people
who know what they ought to
pay for goods and who refuse
to pay exhorbitant prices.
rAs we have said we are par
ticular ourselves. Particular
in selecting our goods, and we
do our own selecting, from the
best concerns in the country;
insist upon the very highest
grade of goods, and as we pay
the plank down cash for every
dollars worth of goods pur.
chased we get them at the
lowest notch, and that is the
secret of now we can sell first
class stock at a price which
most dealers ask for second
class and inferior goods.
We are especially particu-
lar in the selection of our
stock of drugs and medicines.
They must always be up to
the standard, pure and fresh.
We pride ourselves in this de-
partment, and truthfully be-
lieve that we have drugs and
medicines for all the aches and
pains known to the human
race, and to the animal king
dom as well. We keep none
but what we can recommend,
and it is always wise to keep
an assortment of goods, true
and tried remedies on hand, so
that they may be near when
wanted, for it is a fact that
many lives are sacred, and
diseases prevented, by having
the right medicine at the right
time, and in time.
And while we are especially
particular with our stock of
drugs and medicines, we are
equally particular in the Sc
lection Of our paints, oils and
brushes. We are the oldest
house in the county dealing
in these goods, and we have
this class of goods down pat.
We keep no inferior paints or
oils, and it is for that reason
wherever you see paint spread
that comes from our store it is
always found to wear well and
is first class in all particulars.
Our wall paper and window
shade dept has a we'll estab'
lished reputation, and we are
as particular of this depart
ment as we are of any other in
our mammoth store Styles
and patterns have never been
more pretty than they are
now, and as to prices you can
paper your entire home for
little or no money. The
cheapness Of our paper will
surprise you, as well as our
designs will delight. Come in
and look over the stock wheth-
er you wish to purchase or
not.
We still handle anything
and everything in the book
and stationery line, and keep
this department up as well as
can be found in any first class
exclusive book and stationery
store. Respectfully,
SAUR & BALSLEY.

TIE BEST
SPRING M EDICINE:.

IS SIMMONS LIVER REGULAToR-don't
forget to take it. The Liver gets sluggish
during the Winter, just like all nature,
and the system becomes choked up by
the accumulated waste, which brings on
Malaria, Fever and Ague and Rheuma-
tism. You want to wake up your Liver
now, but be sure you take SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR to do it. 1t also
regulates the Liver-keeps it properly at
work, when your system will be free from
poison and the whole body invigorated.
You get THE BEST BLOOD when
your system is in Al condition, and that
will only be when the Liver is kept active.
Try Liver Remedy once and note the
difference. But take only SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR it IS SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR which makes the
difference. Take it in powder or in liquid
already prepared, or make a tea of the
powder; but take SIMMONS LIVER REGU-
LATOR. You'll find the RED z on every
package. Look for it.
