Why is it that we have filled SO
great a number of prescriptions
during the last sixteen months?
Our files show that we have done
remarkable business in the matter
of filling prescriptions. Way up in
the thousands, and our business in
creasing every day. We are proud
to know that the reason our pre-
scription work grows is in the fact
that we do just what we promise:
We use only the purest and best
drugs, and we charge you reason
able profit. We don 'tgivc rebates nor
cut-rates nor anything else. Merit
is the bedrock principle-Merit;
and reasonable profits. If these
ends should fail us, we can afford
to fail. But our business goes mcr-
rily on. Our friends are increasing
every day. If you have not given
us trial, we heartily invite you to
do so. Cold drinks, druggists sun
dries, toilet articles, fine cigars and
tobaccos, pipes and cigar holders
these are some of our additional
lines. You are invited to give us a
call. We are constantly aiming to
widen our business.

News was received this morning
OF the death of Mrs. McKeithan
Rogers which occurred at the home
Of her fatherSin-law, Mr.. l.. B.
Rogers, near Latta. Just a year
ago Mrs. Rogers, who was Miss
Foster, of Union, was married to
Mr.. McKeithan Rogers one of the
most prominent young men of the
county. She was a young woman
of many fine traits of character and
was loved and admired by large
circle of friends. The sympathy of
the entire community goes out to
the stricken husband.-Dillon Her
aid, March 10Th.
The action of the two cotton mills
of Union in reducing the number
working hours per day without a
decrease in wages is important and
significant, and we hope the exam
pie set therein will be followed by
every cotton mill in the State as
well as in adjoining States. This
reduction is one of right and equity,
and is made at the request Of the
operatives themselves. To have
complacently yielded to so just a
petition speakes volumes for the
kindness Of heart and humanity of
the mill men. We hope
:
the change will rebound to the in
terests and benefit of mill owners
by a better and higher type of work
and that the result will abundantly
satisfy them for making the change.
The operatives concerned have cause
for congratulation. - Greenville

 To Build New Jail.
 The Board of Revenue of Mobile Is pre- pairing to issue bonds to the amount of $200, ,000 for the purpose of building new jail and making some needed improve ments in the court house. These bonds were authorized by a recent election by large majority vote, as the improvements contemplated are sadly needed.
 This improvement Is in keeping with the general spirit of Mobile-everybody is looking to the improvement of the city. More handsome buildings are being erect ed, but the greatest of the Improvements is the paving of the streets. Mobile has been very backward in this respect, but within the past four years about twelve miles of the streets have been paved, and the council has now provided for the pavement of about eleven miles more. The paving to date has been largely con- fined to the business district. and asphalt has been used very satisfactorily. It is proposed to use clay gravel on the resi- dence streets The city engineer recom- mends this gravel as preferable to either Birmingham chert or Mobile shells. The gravel will be gotten at Jackson.

Tombstone, A. T., February 17.-Arriv- ing after dark at euphonious Tombstone, left my grip at the lodging house. there are no hotels-and strolled out to see the town by the glare of the street lights. As there were no street lights, except the moon, there was no glare to speak of and the ghostlike outlines of the struggling one-story adobes hardly satis- fled my appetite for first impressions.
 I therefore yielded to the persuasion of thirst and pushed aside the door of Billy Kings palatial whisky joint and stepped inside. game of poker. beyond the bar. was instantly suspended, and the four players suddenly lost all interest in the jackpot and gave me their undivided attention.
 realized in a moment that was up against it, and that I had no alterna- tive but gracefully to succumb. After an exchange of kind regards, one of the four gravely remarked:
 My name Is Stehle, and these are So and So, and So and So. Now, who are your"
 Friendly and sociable? I thought so. for a moment; but I had not much time for reflection, as Stehle next inquired if I had a gun.
 I was ashamed to admit that l had a vest pocket 22-calibre edition, over in my grip. So I asked him if he knew of any one who had six-shooter that he was willing to part with.
 Seeing that you are a stranger" says he. 'I will lend you mine for the night, but I couldn't think of parting with 1t" and with that he mbuckled his cartridge belt. in which was suspended a 45-calibre gun.
 I afterward remembered that they all seemed uncommonly interested in this unexpected bit of hospitality and cordially co-operated in transferring and adjusting the artillery and ammunition train. Step- ping back to admire my warlike equip ment, they next agreed that as mo one ever knows a gun till he has tried it. l ought to step out in the back yard and practice

STRANGE TOM B
Erected by Widow Permits Sight oi
 Tier Husbands Face.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
 The strangest tomb in America. if not in the world is that in which lie the re- cemetery. It Is so constructed that the widow can look upon the body at will
 Dorsa was an employe of Insane Asy- lum No when he died, in 1897, at 26 years of age. He was inferred In an ord mary grave but a few weeks later his widow decided to have tomb built for him.
 She. accordingly ordered a marble worker to hew a receptacle in solid piece of Missouri granite. Following her de- sign, the workman constructed a tomb 12 feet long , feet wide, and feet high Its weight at completion was 1000 pounds
 On completion the tomb was removed to the Nevada cemetery, where 1t was put In position. Dorsa's remains were dis inferred and deposited in the crypt En- ough of the lid of the coffin was removed to expose the head.
 Then the ponderous lid of the tomb was fitted into the crypt. 1t is the arrange ment of this part of the structure that makes it so unique. Immediately over the head of the dead man is an opening in the granite block IS inches square and covered with glass. piece of stone covered to represent a Bible. is the GOV ering of the aperture. It can be lifted easily by the widows hand and when Mrs Dorsaa grief becomes unusually poir- nant she gees to the cemetery and gazes for hours at time upon the face of her dead husband
 Another curious feature about the tomb is photograph of the dead man with q
