The old proverb; "To be at peace
prepare for war" is the secret OF the
larger part of life's successes, whether
of nations or individuals.
The difference between the healthy,
happy mother who has healthy children
to nurse and nourish, and the weak,
nervous mother, with a weakling child,
is mostly difference of preparation
The great preparative ior motherhood
is DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It
tranquilizes the nerves, encourages the
appetite and induces refreshing sleep.
It gives the mother strength to give her
child. 1t imparts elasticity and strength
to the organs of maternity so that the
haby's advent is practically painless.

he is as healthy as any baby could be- and also

A DepIorabIe Accident.

A sad and deplorable accident oc.
Cured near Providence church, last
Monday, which ended a bright and
promising life and has thrown the
entire community into gloom and
sorrow.
On this day Mr.. Sanders, the son
of Mr.. George Harman, was hauling
logs and was coming down the hill
near Mr.. Thomas L. Harman's mill
when the tongue of the wagon broke
which ran the wagon on the mules
and in trying to keep out Of the
way, the mules turned suddenly and
threw Mr.. Harman from his seat to
the ground. The hind wheel passed
over the lower part of his abdomen
and across his groin, iphicting in
iuries from which he died that night
DR.. Wingard did all that medical
skill could do, but could only alle7i-
ate his sufferings. he was young
man of excellent habits and quiet
disposition. He was hauling logs
for lumber with which to build a
house for himself and bride which
be was shortly to claim. It is sad
affair and we sympathize with the
stricken family. He was buried in
the Providence cemetery on Tuesday
and his popularity was attested by
the large number Of neighbors who
attended his funeral.

Our Fishing Trip.

Mr.. Dan CAN'T is considered king
fisherman on Black creek, and Davis
CAN'T his prime minister, but Uncle
Jake sure wore the belt on our recent
trip. There is, however, one spec
cies of the fnny tribe he prefers to
remain in the water or take the boat
alone. Our catch on the first day was
large but heavy rains came, after that
our luck was only medium. During
our stay, we caught enough to sup
ply few neighbors with mess and
our own demands so that our appetite
had to cry out "hold, enough" in self
defense and we turned from fish to
chicken, beans, bacon, cabbage, to-
mstoes, okra, and finished on peach
pies, honey and butter. Uncle Jake
gained so N flesh that it was mat
ter of serious moment for US two to
ride on the same buggy seat on our
return home, and out of pity to the
faithful mule in pulling the heavy
load we had to come slow.

We Are Told

That our stock of buggies and
wagons is the largest in the State.
We are also told by the manufactur-
ers that we are selling some of our
vehicles $40 per job cheaper than
other dealers are getting for the
same work. Wagon manufacturers
have advanced their prices 5per cent,
which means about $3.50 per job.
Buggy manufacturers are getting up
new price lists, but with all these
things against the consumers, we are
prepared to protect you and our old
price for a short while at least. With
our tremendous stock on the floor and
untitled contracts bought in time we
are prepared to do the business.
With these strong points in your IA
vor and some ESPECIAL" induce
ments we offer, you cannot afford to
delay. Come and see US.
