Notwithstanding the depressed condition ,
of the cotton market, Manning is doing a
fine cash trade this season. There is not
an advertiser in this paper who is not do
ing very satisfactory cash trade, and we
have reasons to believe that some Of our l
merchants viii make even larger invest
ments IN printers ink. There is no doubt ,
about it, that a Merchant who watches the
details of his business and has the amb,- ;
ton to compete with others, sees the Wis !
dom Of thorough advertising and makes his
investments accordingly. Watch the a6-
vertising columns Of TIE TINES and you
will know who is up-to-date and who does
not permit moss to grow on their backs.
