One of the attractive features Of our
neighborhood is the "store" of Mr..
Albert S. Bowie, attractive, not so
much because his goods are stored in
such large, grand and spacious build
ing, but because we can not help being
attracted, on account of the large sup
ply of goods he has on hand, together
with the rock bottom prices at which
they are going. By dint of energy and
business tact he has succeeded IN es
tablishing splendid store of general
merchandise, and by reason of the low
prices at which he sells his goods has
succeeded in building up fine trade.
He buys everything usually found in a
frst-class country store, from a five
cent lamp chimney, up to a twenty-five
dollar gold watch, and will sell as cheap
as any one in country or town, any
thing from the value of one cent up to
the highest denominations of "Federal
money" Mr.. Bowie is determined not
10 be undersold by any merchant, in
Anderson County, and promises to his
customers the very best dry goods.
supplies, etc.. obtainable at the very
lowest prices possible. Besides his
store, he has other enterprises ut work,
viz, splendid ginnery complete, cot
ton seed crusher, corr and saw mill, all
of which is open to the general public.
He hopes, before many weeks roll by,
to have postoffice, established at his
store, which will be great convenience
10 this immediate neighborhood.
Mr.. j. w. Reid, of Rcidville, S c.,
has been in this neighborhood terracing
his lands. While here he won host
of friends, who will be glad to see him
again.
Mr.. Wayman Hall is now in the en-
ploy of Mr.. A. S. Bowie
Mr.. R. a. Love, a popular travelling
man, spent several days in our neigh
