Mr.. c. E. Stubbs says that the prettiest
cotton OF the season was sold in this city last
Friday. 1t will grade, he says, as "mddlinu
fair" under the most rigid scrutiny. This
cotton was grown in the Catchall neighoor-
hood.
Confusion as to the choice of blood-puri-
Ger is unnecessary. There is but one best
Sarssparilla, and that is Ayers. This i'm
portant fact Was recognized at the Wor.d's
Fair, Chicsgo 1893, being the only bloo'-
purifier admitted to be placed on exhibition.
To remove the constipated habit, the only
safe treatment i. q course of Ayers Pills, fol-
lowed by laxative diet. Most other cathar-
tice do more harm than good, therefore lead
ing ply ysicians recommend Ayers Pills, 's-
pecially as family physic.

TO return home. and something In his
own heart urges him very strongly TO
stay. Gladys and he have become like

Gladys.
