Two Pointed Questions Answered

What is the use of making a better
article than your competitor if you can
not get better price for it?
ANS As there is no difference in the
price the public will buy only the better,
Sc that while our profits may be smaller
on q single sale they will be much greater
in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
Ii both articles are brought promi-
nentlv before the public both are certain
to be tried and the public will very
quickly pass Judgment on them and use
only the better one.
This explains the large sale on Cham
berlain's Congh Remedy. The people
have been using it for years and have
found that it can always be depended
upon. They may occasionally take up
with some fashionable novelty put forth
with exaggerated claims, but are certain
to return to the one remedy that they
know to he reliable, and for coughs,
colds and Group there is MOTIF ing equal
to Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. For
sale by E. H. Craig & Co.'S. drug store.

Late Tobacco Information

Much desired damp weather was with
us for two or three days last week. and
farmers made the most of it in remov
ing their tobacco from the poles. They
laoored day aud ~ sht, vet Wa doubt il
more than half crop OF the county
was put in buudlo.
We think very little buying has been
done OF late. Warehouse proprietors
are arranging to commence handling
and sorting as soon as deliveries are
made. Fred Eckhardt made shipment
OF ten car loads of old goods, already
sold to ou5-slde storage points.
The Edgerton Reporter speaks of the
conditions 10 that section as follows
"The long wished for casing weather
came this week aud con iuued for several
days-long enough for grreyers to re-
move their tobacco from the shs DIS il
they so desired. Probably some has
bsen taken down in rather high case.
and vet the top tiers in close sheds
seemed hard to get into pliable con
dition. The bulk of the crop is re
NOV, from the poles and stripping can
be carried on throughout the growing
districts. Buyers have been travelling
the couatryy pretty freely of late, but
they complain of the unyielding attitude
OF the growers in holding for strong
prices. Except in the hail sections
very little tobacco is bought much
under the cent mark, and fancy crops
bring something better. Now that the
crop is down, buyers who have been hold
log off to be able to examine the merits
sitter stripping can take the field and
satisfy themselves as to this point. The
probabilities are that a more active
movement of the crop will now ensue
and business of all kinds in the tobocco
section and packing centers will be
materially improved. At least winters
work hiss been ensured to the aboring
class in the tobacco towns, which of
