We want to impress upon your
mind the fact that we do the best
class OF building in the'city the fact
of It is we do not know how to do
cheap work. we have made a study
of high-class building and we defy
anyone to point out single building
that we have constructed in this city
that is noe just right in every sense
of the word.
A decided advantage in dealing
with us is this that in drawing UP
our specifications to meet your re-
quirements we point out and suggest
the cheapest way to complete the diff
ferent details. but we talk to you the
same as your banker does and advise
you as to the best and most artistic
way Of finishing the different rooms
and the exterior of the buil1ing.
When you take into consideration
the fact that we compete with other
builders in the city and that we
build for cash or will furnish the en-
tire cost of your building, we believe
that you should at least have a talk
with us, and IL we cannot convince
you that what we tell you is correct.
we will not expect to get the oppor-
tunity of building for you.
The money that we advance can be
repaid by the month or pay the inter
est every three months

Eczema Can Be Cured.

Eczema is the itching disease that
nearly diStractS one. Who is there
who has ever had this terrible disease,
that would not give everything he
possessed to be cured of it? Thous-
andS of people throughout Texas and
the South have been cured quickly
and permanently of eczema and other
skin diseases by Imperial Remedy.
DR.. w. w. Stone Of Edna, Texas,
says: Imperial Remedy has proved
to be the most reliable medicine |
have yer used in the treatment Of
skin eruptiOnS. Have employed it in
two cases of Cuban itch, one of chrOn-
ic and the other an acute case. Both
were completely cured. 1t is the
incest preparation l have ever used,
no offensive OdOr. l have found it
perfectly safe to use even on the most
tender child"
For % years Imperial Remedy has
been used in nearly every city, village
and hamlet in the South, for the cure
of skin diseases. If you are a sufferer,
a sure cure awaits you. Sold in Gren-
ada by G.. w. Eatman. Made by I'M

Humor ano Philosophy
BY DUNCAN N. SMITH
HARD TO REALIZE ON.

We dream Of a time when our ship shall
With spices and such in the hold:
We dream Of a mansion, we dream Of a
farm.
We dream of a barrel of gold.
One dream fades away. but another comes
And always of roster hue,
But we would, 1 venture, fall dead with
surprise
II one in a thousand came true.
We dream of the time when the people
shall call
In tones that we cannot but hear
And say. Here's an ONCE; just take II.
although
It's only five thousand a year.
OF castles in Spain or the isles of the sea
Or some other place far away.
But none Of our dreaming comes round to
make good.
( Though we work at it eight hours a
day.
We dream of a maiden with wonderful
eyes,
Who can for the asking be had;
Or If we're a lady we dream of q prince
With a noble and wealthy old dad.
We dream of a house with a spacious
front yard
On Easy or some other street.
And sometimes we venture to dream Of a
dream
That places results at our feet.
We dream Of a time we shall rest on our
oars,
Sit down and look work in the eye
And say to it: You are no longer for US.
Begope; take your knitting and fly"
We dream in our playing. we dream at
our work,
At mealtimes we get in a few,
But we would, I'm certain, fall lead with
surprise
If one in a million came true.
Don't cross a bridge before you come
to it unless you are looking for an en-
gagement In a dime museum.
A half loaf Is better than no bread
unless 1t is of the sweet young brides
first batch.

Monday morning at Cushman, Ark,
whittier he had gone only a few days

His death was quite a shock to the

Waiting for recognition.

To the cackling Of the hen.
Utility and industry
Triumphs over tail feathers.
Iowa has spoken;
The eagle must take q back seat
And be lucky to get that.
What has the eagle
Done for its country?
Does 1t lay eggs?
Well, not over three or four q year
And those where you could only
get at them
With a flying machine,
While the hen
Doesn't stop for Sundays
Or legal holidays.
Every year
She lays eggs enough
To pay the national debt
And then some.
Say.
If it wasn't for her sex,
Wouldn't she be
A boy wonder?
Maybe she is not
Strong on beauty
Nor a grand opera warbler,
But. jumping Jehoshaphat
And several other persons
With even harder names,
How she can lay.
