WORK OF ONE WOMAN.
Miss HOffner'S Fine Record-Saves
Money Enough to Buy a Splendid
Farm.

Salisbury Post
Ten years ago, Miss Laura M. Hon.
ner, the daughter of Mr.. n. l. Hoff-
ner of Mt. Uila, came to Salisbury
She entered the Salisbury cotton
mills, went to work and at the eXpi-
ration of ten years, she had saved
a neat little fortune. This she did
by faithful work and not by the
arts of the miser. She always dres-
sed neatly, was popular and she de-
served to be. She is the daughter of
a most excellent farmer and is q
splendid young woman. Sometime
ago, she invested $500 of her saved
earnings in a small farm. Later up
on Offering it for sale, she realized
$500 a profit of $500 Recently she
purchased and paid cash for 200
acre farm valued at 81, 400, her saw
ing having amounted to $1,000.
There are many splendid people
i'm the textile industries of this State,
but Salisbury is willing to wager that
no person employed at the looms can
show a finer record for frugality than
this. Miss Hoffner, in addition TO
herr savings, paid board all the while
and relied absolutely upon her own
resources.
That she is not worshipper or
the golden calf is borne out by
the fact that she is now at home en-
loving a we'll merited vacation
