In the midst of close competition
In any line of business it requires
eternal watchfulness to meet with sue
cess. Nor is this all, for without special
talent for any enterprise, as well as
the knowledge which can only come
from experience in mercantile life, even
watehfulness will not avail The emi.
uent success which has attended Mr.
G.. p. Reese as manager. is sufficient
evidence of the thorough abaility of
the gentleman to meet all requirement
Mr.. Reese is personally eonversant with
every detail of his business, and these
deail are many, and besides knows
exactly what the public wants. BY his
knowledge he is enabled to supply those
wants in such q gratifying manner, that
1t would indeed be a task for competi-
tors to wrest from him his well earned
success. He is an active, energetic,
young business man, honorable and fair
in all transactions and is in the full
tide Of his ever enlarging field of use

The store occupied by The Famous

The Famous carries a line of candies
equal TO any found in large cities. His
line of cigars and tobaccos cannot be
excelled, while in fruits he is the leader
in Jefferson.
His ice cream parlor is the only one
in town, and he can serve forty seven
persons at one time.
One Of the specially attractive lines
carried by Mr.. Kreese, is that Of dec
grated and hand painted china. Many
of the designs are rarely beautiful,
while the selections cover a wide range
Of subjects II is an education in art

most pleasing things about this de
partment is that every article is sold
twenty five per cent less than other
dealers charge Tor similar goods ms

china attractive.
The toy department is complete the

His stock of cut glass is heavy and

In conclusion the Jimplccute can only
say that it will repay you to visit the

MARION COUNTY ADofHACr 90.
The Concern that Informs You A "a
Your Title In and to Marion
County Lands.

In the last analysis everything both
heavenly and earthly is based on the
title one holds. The old hymn writer
wrote "When | can read my title clear
80 mansions in the skies" and there
can be no doubt that the heavenly re-
cords must be straight before the in
hcritance can be possessed, and so in
the many relations of society in this
vast world Of ours, the title is the
thing that counts. Your title to respect,
to honor, to official position, to integ
rity, as well as that to horses, cattle,
land and city property must show in
a chain, link by link, without flaw or
break and even without rust.
1t is this necessity for an absolutely
perfect title to real estate, that has
given rise to the Abstract Companies
of the country and their function is a
most important one. The Marion
County Abstract Company with its
home office at jefferson, is one of the
strongest in the State, Its president
is w. +. Jones, for many, many years
county clerk and a prominent citizen.
Its general manager, is Judge s. W.
Moseley, a native of Marion county,
who for twelve years was judge of the
county court of Marion county. He
was an extensive planter, is a lawyer,
and a well-informed real estate man,
all of which equips him remarkably well
for his duties.
Mr.. l.. G.. Braden, the vice president,
is Marion county 8 efficient and tructed
tax collector, a well known citizen and
business man.
An abstract of title to have value
must have character back of it, and
high character and absolute reliability
are back of every abstract issued by
The Marion County Abstract Company.
This corporation has on its books
every scintilla of fact recorded in Ma
rion county that touches land titles in
Marion county.
When the time comes, when no piece
Of property is bought, or can be sold
without an abstract being furnished,
then land litigation will stop, and titles
will bo quoted.
The Jimplecute is pleased to know
that we have such nm abstract company
here and urges every one who thinks
Of buying land to consult this company
regarding title.

TRANSFORMATION.

The amount of transformation that we'll posted people can absorb or acquire and then pass the same along to others is worthy of remark. As an example there is presented the following from a Washington correspondent sending news to a number of papers in Arizona and New Mexico:
 Arizona cannot be admitted during the present session, as her constitution will not be ratified in time for action before adjournment. Pending Arizona's admission New Mexico will be compelled to wait, as the democrats will not con- sent to the admission of New Mexico except on terms of having Arizona ad- mitted at the same time.
 If New Mexico's constitution reaches congress for action at this session and President Taft presses admission before Arizona on joint resolution the demo- crats will filibuster.
 In the event of the special session of the new democratic congress after March l both territories will be brought in at once.
 If the constitution framed in New Mexico, and now before the people is approved, meets the pres- idential approval and is sent to the present Congress by the Presi- dent the democrats cannot hold it
