One that is not aN-A7en, but is extra
heavy, is a hemmed towel. with red
and blue borders, for 17c.
Two more that are all pure linen,
the first for zoe. extra heavy, with
a red border, and the second hem
stitched towel, large size, for Csc,
fine and soft. unlike the ordinary
buck towel at a quarter, which is
apt to be harsh.
The particularly strong point about
both these towels is the fact that
they are loosely woven, which not
only makes them wear well, but
gives them wonderfully absorbent
qualities. which, of course, is what
a towel is for.
Do you k7oW that 90 per cent. of
the htck tovels lack just these necessary
requisites?
Good plan, isn't it, to buy in a
store where you are sure you re
selecting from the TOWELS that
are all right?

Graham County Politics.

The Bulletin says politics in Graham county is attracting more attention. The democrats are still active. For sheriff, the present incumbent, James Parks, is the only name mentioned, and it is almost a foregone conclusion that he will succeed himself.
 For recorder, two candidates are in the field, Mitt Sims, of Clifton, and A. M Elias, of Solomonville. For treas urer, Geo. Gamble has no opposition for a second term, and will. undoubted. ly, secure the nomination. Further than this the remainder of the ticket is yet in the dark. For probate judges supervisors, district attorney and mem, bers of the legislature it is an open race. No doubt the convention will be held in the court house, at Solomon vile, and will be called for the latter part of August.
