It is unusual for people of this commu-
nifty to have the opportunity OF taking
advantage of a mill and factory sale.
These sales are controlled by syndicate
who buy up thousands of dollars worth
of goods from the large mills and facto-
ries in the East. They select large stores
in progressive cities, ship their goods
there for sale, and send q representative
to take charge of these sales. The second
of these syndicate sales will begin at The.
odore Kehn's Emporium Monday, Janu.
ary 10th, at 9 a. m. All classes OF dry
goods will be sold, but special attention
IS shown to mill Lends and ready-made
garments. Owing to the method of buy
ing these goods, the prices at which they
are sold is very low and it will prove q
positive saving to everyone in this COM
nunity to take advantage of the big sale
which begins next Monday morning at

best towns in the lower part of the State.
There is no town except Orangeburg
: which can begin to compare with Bam-
berg in the amount of business done, the
number of enterprises, and in general
industrial way. Yet real estate is lower
here than in any town we know Of in this
section. In Branchville, Blackville, Barn
well, Allendale, and such towns, real
estate is much higher than in Bamberg.
But it will not be so always. Prices are
going higher all the time. Property here
commands niger prices than it did year
ago, and we look for stin further in
crease in values. Now is the time to in
vest, for Bamberg real estate will never
: be as cheap again as it is now.
