The Time To Advertise.

The time to advertise is all the time,
but the advertising should vary with
the seasons.
Advertising performs double func-
tion. 1t helps the merchant to move
larger quantities., and so enables him
to buy at better advantage than he
could do without advertising.
1t enables the customer to study the
stock In advance. She compares her
wants and err purse with the goods ad-
vsrtised. ani she goes to the store
knowing what she wants, consequently
shopping is facilitated, and the days
business is more satisfactory to all
concerned. Evening Post.

count of the difference in temperature
and other qualities of the water In
which they have been living and that
in which they are expected to live, it
is necessary to acclimatize the young

CONVICTS
MADE DASH
FOR LIBERTY
and SUCCESSFULLY ESCAPED
Three White Prisoners Gain.
ed Liberty

Three white convicts employed up
on the Sumter county chaingang made
a successful dash for liberty yester-
day afternoon and landed safely in the
Businesses of Muckalee swamp despite
the bullets fired at them, and the ef-
forts made with dogs to run them
down.
The men got away about o'clock at
the turnpike in the western limits of
Americus, where the gang of four
teen white convicts were making road
repairs. The three fugitives, Luther
Glover, Harry Langdon and Dixie
Burge had, it seems, been sent into
the swamp in charge of guard to
cut poles for building a causeway.
Eluding the guards watchfulness for
a moment, the convicts made a dash
for liberty, their side shackles inter-
fering but little in their fight.
The guard fired upon the fugitives
five times and then hurriedly reported
the escape to Mr.. Lee Bradley, in
charge of the camp. The track dogs
were at hand and these were imme-
diately put upon the trail of the fu-
gitives. The men evidently separated
upon reaching the dense swamp, and
up to late hour in the afternoon had
not been captured.
The three escapes" had been in the
Sumter county gang since the camp
of fourteen white convicts was estab-
lished here about two years ago. They
had given no trouble previously AM
were we'll treated, the white convicts
being kept to themselves and entirely
separated from the negro convicts
The three fugitives were sent hers
from Fulton county. Harry Langdor
was doing a twenty-year term for bur
glary; Luther Glover was in for -four
years for the same crime, while Burg
was doing an eight-year term for bur
glary.
