In high-grade, distinctive
novelties, both in Suits and
Goats, we now have more very
swell things than you will
expect to find in any one stock,
and these we handle at a closer
margin of profit than is some
times the case in the large city
stores who sell these exclusive
novelties.
In more staple styles of me-
dunn cost we have the most
fashion approved shapes and
fabrics at as reasonable cost as
they can be sold anywhere.
Just now the assortment of
sizes is as nearly complete as
we ever get it. For large wo-
men who need "out size we
to-day have AZ, a and 46 bust

GIVE Your Name.

Some things have to be oft repeated
to be understood. It Is regulation O.
HE COMMONWEALTH 0ffice, as we'll a.
other offices, that We must know GU,
correspondents before we print wha,
they write. We do not wish to print
the name OF correspondent, if such
correspondent wishes his or her name
withheld but we mi st know who the
correspondent is, in order to keep from
being imposed upon.
Recently we received an interesting
news item from Edgecombe county
concerning person whom the editor
of this paper likes we'll, but the only
name to tie letter was, "Old Subscrl-
ber." We did not print the letter be-
cause we did know who was the writer.
Again, we received on Monday Of
chs week news letter which contain
ed some interesting items, but we could
not print them because We did not
know who the writer was. 1t was
mailed at Halifax and gave interesting
news notes from dumping"
No doubt it was all correct. It was
certainly neatly written and we'll ex-
pressed, but that was not enough to
save 1t from the waste basket. We
should have been glad to. print
the news it..gave, but under our rules
we could not. The writer signed it
"A North Carolinian."
Now, it is good thing to be(a good
North Carolinian, but we wish to know
which North Carolinian writes from
Dumping"
We are glad to get the news but cor
must enclose their names
in their letters, either at the end, in a
corner of the sheet or on separate clip.
We will not print the name of the wri-
ter unless it ia so desired.
Now, kind "North Carollnian," give
US another nice news letter, with your
name accompanying it,and we shall be
glad to print it.

We first used them in our family several years ago when living in Marietta, Ohio, where they are considered household necessity. They are the finest remedy for backache or any symptoms of irritated or weakened kidneys on the market. Shortly after moving here some three years ago symptoms of a recurrence of kidney trouble in our family became evident, and we tried to get Doan's Kidney Pills at several drug stores. They knew nothing about them and we sent to our druggist, MT. Styer of Marietta for q supply. Noticing them advertised in Phoenix last winter when we required them we procured them at the Brisley Drug Co.'S store.
