Much of this lawlessness-is doubt
less attributable directly to whiskey

profit come in? You sell the poor
devils the liquor and then you use
the so-called profits to punish them
for the crimes they commit while
under the influence of the liquor.

standard of morals and citizenship

During the overflow of the

During the overflow of the
Savannah river last August, the
railroads had a large. quantity of
freight damaged in cars and in the
Augusta depot. At the time the
question arose as to who would bear
the loss, the shipper, consignee or
the railroad that received the mer-
chandise for transportation? Sever
al suits to recover the value of
damaged goods have been brought
against the railroads recently, re-
sulting in verdicts for the plaintiffs.
The defendant company claimed
that the goods were destroyed
through an act of providence, and
not through its carelessness.

Beware of Catalos Bouses.

~ beware Oh Sdtst1OS oOuSSS-
A certain Chicago department
store has just sent out 100000
catologs through the mails, the ag-
gregate weight being 45o tons. 1t
required thirty full length mail
cars to take them out of Chicago.
Wonder how many of the six mil
lion cataIogs were addressed to per-
sons who reside in Edgefeld coun-
,y?
To those who receive them we
would say be not deceived by their
tempting offers. A cut of the article
may be given, accompanied by a
seemingly very low price, but you
can tell nothing as to the quality of
the merchandise offered. The chan
ces are, should you place an order,
that when the merchandise is re-
ceive6 you will for one reason or
another be dissatisfied and would
like to make an exchange. But this
can't be done without paying the
express or freight to and from Chi
cago, to say nothing of the incon-
venience caused by the delay. Even
when the second article is received
it may not be entirely as represent
ed.
Instead Of patronizing the cata-
log house a thousand miles away,
it will be the part of wisdom to
supply your needs from the local
merchant, where you can examine
the goods before paying your mon
ey. Furthermore, the local mer-
chant stands squarely behind every
piece of merchandise that passes
over his counter, making good all
honest complaints. Exchanges can
be made, errors corrected, misun-
derstandings adjusted without cost
or any unnecessary delay.
The local merchant makes only
q legitimate profit upon his mer-
chandise. Were he disposed to
charge unreasonable prices, compe-
tition would not let him. The cata-
log houses may, and doubtless do,
quote low prices, but taking into
consideration the cost of transpor-
tation and the risks incurred as to
quality, safe deliveries, ETC., it pays
to make the purchase at home.
When an order is sent to cata-
log house the cash must either be
sent or the goods must be paid for
when delivered by the express COM
oany. 1t matters not how great your
need or how pressed you are for
funds, these so-called friends of
;he people, the catalog, houses, will
not credit you for a dollar. How
different it is with your home mer-
chant When your crops are short,
or sickness and misfortune overtake
you, d. your cash is exhausted, the
ocal merchant comes to, your res
cue. He will supply your wants and
wait one, three, or six months for
he money. If the local merchant
credit when you need it,
should you not feel honor bound to
spend your cash with him instead
If sending off to Chicago or else
Furthermore, when you
spend g dollar on the local market
t remains at home and may come
your way again, but when you send
{ a thousand miles away it is gone
orever. Is it not better to contrib
lte to the upbuilding of the home
own than to the further enlarge
nent of the congested cities?
