during this time as does farmer OF

begin to arrive now in a few weeks.
We have reduced prices on almost ev-

means just that with the new firm OF

an idea we will mention a few items
We will close out at the remarkably

WHY IT IS BEST.

THE Mutual Benefit Life Insurance
L Company Of Newark, states In Its
policy contracts that losses will be paid
on acceptance Of proof Of death. 1t
lives up to it's agreements in this re-
spect as we'll as in ALL others, and this
Is why it Is recognized by the insuring
public as the BEST life insurance COM
pany in the world. Read what the An
derson Daily Mail, Of January II, says

January Roses.
THE ENQUIRER is the recipient of q
box of beautiful roses sent by Mrs w
B. Good, of Bullock's C&ek, on Mon
day. Mrs. Good explained that the
roses developed in her yard, out in the
at protection from the winter. The box
contained about two dozen buds and
full grown blossoms, constituting al
together a remarkable production for
January.
Tax Time Extended.
The time for the payment of taxes
has been extended to February l. The
extension was made by the comptroller
general and state treasurer, who have
the power under the law to take such
action. Both officials were very much
opposed to the idea Of extending the
time for the reason that they knew
l"ere was no practical necessity for an
extension. Upon the passage by the
house Of the Ashley resolution, extend
ing the tax time to March l, the comp
troIler and treasurer acted, fixing the
date at February l. They hoped that
this compromise will be accepted and
that the Ashley resolution will not be
pushed in the senate. The extension
will be Of but little accommodation to
taxpayers; but it will give treasurers
more or less annoyance in having to re-
fund such penalties as they may have
collected up to the time the extension
was made.

COMMERCIAL
PRINTING.

A LII business men should use print
ed stationery. They should not use
any printed stationery that is not up to
the highest grade of work obtainable.
It Is just as essential t, send out
neatly and we'll printed etterhead,
Billhead, Statement or Envel> ,e, as it
Is to keep the ledger or daybook cor
rect. Good stationery, we'll printed, al
ways serves as an index to the char
acter Of the business man using 1t.
Handsomely printed stationery gives to
the user a character which cannot be
obtained in any other way. It also
gives the recipient a good impression Of
the sender. It shows that the sender is
not careless Of the looks Of the small
things that he sends out, and forces
upon the mind Of the recipient the i'm
preston that the sender is not careless
of the large things that he does.
Cheap" shoddy printing always and
invariably leaves bad taste.
Discriminating and careful business
men, who have an eye for the appro-
priateness Of things in general and
their printed matter in particular, have
their work done at THE ENQUIRER
office, where they know by long expert
ence that they will get work that will
be up to the highest point Of perfec-
ton IN QUALITY, STYLE and GOOD
TASTE, and they are also aware that
they will get CHEAP work without
getting "Cheap" Printing. Give THE
ENQUIRER your next order, and you
will be satisfied with your work.

What Joseph T. johnson Thinks.


Spartanburg Journal: Congressman
elect Jos. T. Johnson, of the Fourth
district, has been asked his opinion Of
the proposition to redistrict the state.
Since the census figures have been CIV
en- out and the attempt in Washington
to reduce the representation in congress
of this state has failed, the general as
sembly is likely to take up the matter
at this session, certainly at the next.
Redistricting will make radical changes
in the formation Of all the districts and
naturally interest is great. Realizing
this an opinion has been sought from
the new congressman. Mr. Johnson
said: II have no districts to propose.
They are not now satisfactorily formed.
The only suggestion have to make Is
that the districts should be made up Of
counties thrown together by nature
and allied by commerce, education, as
sociation and convenience. They
should contain as near 200 people
each as possible, that being the sew
enth part Of the population Of the
state"
