LIVES WITH BULLETS IN HEAD
Man Who Tried Suicide Amazes Physt
Clans BY Recovering.

Baltimore. Nd, May 22.-On May
George Horst, 80 years old, an employe
in a brewery here. attempted to COM
init suicide by shooting himself twice
in the head. The bullets have not been
removed, but to the amazement Of
physicians who have interested them
selves in his case, he is not only still
living. but according to present indi-
cations will soon be well enough to be
out of the house. OF the bullets with
which Horst attempted to end his life
one entered just above the right ear
while the other entered just below
the right temple. Ordinarily either
bullet would have been sufficient TO
cause death, but in Horst's case they
apparently resulted in nothing more
serious than paralysis Of the left and
part of the right side, which paralysis
is now disappearing.

From November 18th, 1905, we will

CASH VS. CREDIT.

cie.-lf you Decide the Cash Plan is Bet
ter than the Credit Plan Adopt 1t.
On November 18th, 1905, we change
our system from the credit plan to the
strictly cash system. We believe it is
Justice TO ourselves and justice to the
public that we give our reasons for
making these changes.
To begin with we make the state
ment and firmly believe the time has
come when a majority of the public de-
substantiate the fact that system of
this kind will prove beneficial to all,
then surely we have done some good.
The merchant that gives credit suf-
fers loss by the many bad debts he has
outstanding at the end of the year.
In order TO make up the losses it is
necessary to raise the prices of goods
ne sells, thereby the cash customer is
made to pay for the goods not paid for
by the credit dead beat. Another item
ofexpense is for keeping a set of books.
With the cash system it would be I'M
necessary.
In the wholesale markets merchant
who pays cash for his goods is always
given preference over the merchant
that buys on time, although the time
may be only 60 or so days. A retail
merchant has many opportunities to
buy goods very cheap If he at all times
has the necessary cash, which is hardly
possible under the credit system.
A few remarks about the One-pTice
system in connection with the cash
plan. This thing of having one price
10 one party and another price to
another party, is practiced by great
many merchants today. Under this
Kind of q system how can Il customer
cell when he gets his goods at the right
prices? a merchant can ask double
price for an article, which he is apt to
clio if ne is of the jew kind. This gives
him plenty of room to be ''jewed" lie
can fall one-fourth and then sell you
N One-fOurth more than its true value.
Yet nine times out of ten you will be
well satisfied because you iewed him
down One-fourth and think that you
had got a bargain. We believe the
only true and genuine honest principle
IN selling goods is the One-price system
and for cash. We believe it Strong
enough to adopt this system, thereby
iRsuring one price to all alike and CIV
ing no individual whether rich man,
poor man or beggar credit. This kind
of a system will distribute the profits
equally among all customers, thereby
fhsuring the lowest possible prices that
goods can be sold for.
From November 18th, 1905, you will
Rfind all our goods marked in plain
figures these figures we will stand
hack of and guarantee to be as low as
amy legitimate prices made by any
merchant in the United States. This
is broad assertion, but the system we
arr adopting will enable us TO do so.
Every penny we save will put US in
position to help our customers that
much more.
Cash being the opposite of credit, we
seaiize IL will be necessary TO sell the
best goods the market affords for the
feast money. We believe one firm
shoiiIg cash business can do n com
innnity more good than dozen firms
doing a credit business. Show me one

THE COUNTY EXAMINERSHIp.

An effort looking to the re-
moval of Prof. w. H. Watkins of
this place from the position of
county examiner for the Southern
District of Sharp county was
started in the county court this
week. The movement was or
iginated some time ago, it is said,
by Prof. WI. Simpson of Cave
City, late county examiner and
who was an applicant for reap
pointment to that position. No
charge was brought against the
ability of Prof. Watkins to
efficiently perform the duties of
county examiner, the only object
ion made to his holding the place
being that, at the time of his ap-
pointment he had not resided in
the county six months, and was
therefore not an elector. At the
time of his appointment, Prof.
Watkins had not been a resident
of the county six months, but
Judge Mobley, recognizing his
fitness for the place, rendered it
to him. When the proceedings
looking to his removal were
brought up in the court Tuesday
Col. Sam H. Davidson rep
resented Prof. Watkins and Hon.
l. j. Matheny of Batesville ap.
peared for Prof. Simpson. Judge
Smith ordered that the latter
produce a bond in court for the
costs accruing in the case, which
bond did not come forth, and
Wednesday morning Judge Smith
dismissed the case, there being
no one willing to prosecute the
matter further against Prof.
Watkins.
