w. Il. WINIPY.

In 1890 Mr.. Wimpy began the furniture
business in Savannah in a very small way
His principal stock in trade was push and
determination to get there. How he has
succeeded is best told by the splendid bus
mess establishment now conducted by
him in the Lyons block on Broughton
street. Certainly there is no handsomer
store in the city. and all over the spacious
warerooms may be found the finest stock
Of furniture money can buy.
Mr.. Wimpy claims to be the pioneer in
selling good furniture cheap. What he is
after is lots Of business and he does not
care If profits are cut close so long as the
furniture goes and customers are made
for future use. Mr.. Wimpy carries ev-
erything in the furniture line, fine, me-
dunn and cheap-and he guarantees to sell
cheaper than any other house in the trade.
Mr.. wimpy regards advertising in the
Morning News as the principal agent in
bringing to him such a large trade. His
advertisements, backed up with the right
sort OF goods and prices tell, and he is
kept busy all the time.
Now that fall is here refurnishing is
the order OF the day and no matter how
little or how much is needed, Mr.. Wimpy
will be glad to figure on your order and
show what saving there is when goods
are bought from him.

This gentleman has done more for sa-
vannah than Oglethorpe did-Mr. Hicks
has provided the citizens with a place to
eat, the missing link in the city's civili-
cation. Before the Hicks era we ate where
we could, but now a man can be decently
served in the finest restaurant in the south.
Thanks to Mr.. Hicks with all the elegance
of his establishment. the comfort and ex-
cellence, prices have not been advanced
but on the other hand reduced. You cannot
find a restaurant in the country with such
a service as Hicks for anything like the
same money. MIR. Hicks has the finest
meals in the city, and his special order de-
partment is beyond question, the finest in
the south Oysters from private beds and
from the markets of the north, fish OF all
kinds, game and every delicacy from land
or sea-all are at Hicks. Hicks invites
every hungry man to come and see him.
Strangers will find 1t an ideal place. The
ladies' dining room on second floor is per-
fectly appointed.

PALMER HARDWARE COMPANY.

It is unnecessary to describe the past
enterprise and advancement of the COM
pany whose name heads this article. No
establishment in Georgia, South Carolina
and FLORIDA is better known than the Pal
mer Hardware Company. For forty-four
years the same family have conducted
the business. which has grown to vast pro-
portions, and when few years ago their
trade became so large that the store on
Congress street, where three generations
had helped to build the business, became
over-crowded, they had to move their
wholesale department.
The large and commodious sales and
warerooms at the corner of Bay and JEFF
ferson streets was the result of the move.
They built the most complete and conve-
nient establishment that can be found in
the country. Every article in the numer-
Gus varieties of hardware, agricultural
implements, builders materials, mill sup
plies, blacksmith's supplies, crockery, TIN
ware and stoves, Is there displayed in such
a methodical manner that glance takes
in the surroundings and gives pleasure
to the eye.
The increased business of the firm. made
II necessary, at the beginning of the pres
ent month, to move their retail depart
ment to convenient section
in their main building. In do
ing this they will be enabled to carry
a larger and more complete assortment
of goods to supply the retail trade. They
also claim that with the consolidation of
the management of departments their ex-
penses in handling goods will be less, and
many other advantages will acrue which
will enable them to sell goods cheaper at
retail therefore giving their customers
the advantage of the savings. They wish
It to be perfectly understood that they are
not going out of the retail business, but
intend, by further inducements, to in
crease its proportions.
The wholesale business of the Palmer
Hardware Company continues to grow,
and with the enviable reputation borne
by the members and their business abili-
ty, integrity and honest methods, there
is no wonder that their trade is steadily
increasing from year to year.

heard of you, and thought l would just
come around and see how you stood on
the financial question. You're for Bryan,

"Oh, captain yes you are" said the an

Arson again said he was not.

other people Arson had been entertaining,
