The 0. G. SprOuse Company
Steps To The

THE USEFUL DOLLAR MOVES.

A Harvest Of Bar
gains.

Backed by immense capital and
many years of experience and in
innate with every phase of the mer-
camille business, the o. G., Sprouse
Co.. Incorporated, to-day stands in
the fore front Of the leading bust
ness houses of the city. The COM
pany, under the management of Mr..
Sprouse, has from the initial sale
and on through the year demonstra-
ted that the dollar that is of use is
the dollar that moves, and that the
firm that does business is the one
that hustles. 1t would be difficult
undertaking to find firm that has
achieved more in the same length of
time than the o. G. Sprouse Co. In
fact we believe this firms success is
without local precedent when it
comes to moving things with rush
aud always having still better in
store for their customers With
them the dominant thought is one
big bargain begets another. one big
crowd brings snolher.-and they
know how to get the bargains for
themselves and how 10 offer them to
their customers.
One Of the reasons for this com.
pany's success is its faith in the vir-
tue of printers ink. They know
full we'll that the house that leads in
business and grows, and grows, is
the one that advertises
II is not our purpose to attempt to
speak in detail of the great offers of
the company for the coming fifteen
days. They are flu IL set forth in
the company's advertisement. The
offers are made in good faith and
the o. G. Sprouse's offers are always
made good. Go to the store on
Ninth street, near the l. & N. depot
and make the test for Yourself, but
don't delay doing so. Such snaps"
as they are offering in their big sale
are soon gobbled up by those who
get there first. You be one of the
first.

DIVISION
MANAGER.
Mr.. James West Accepts Posi-.
tiOn With Planters Pro-
teCtive Association.

Mr. Jas. West. one of the best
known tobacco men in the dark to
bacco district, has accepted the posi-
ton of Central Division Manager of
the Planters Protective Association,
and at once becomes an active men,
Der of the management. Mr.. West.
has been identified with the tobacco
trade of Hopkinsville for &c years,
and is thoroughly conversant with
both the buying and selling of tobac-
Go. Mr.. West began his active
career in January 1886, as receiving
and shipping clerk for the Cant &
Gather Co., and a few years later
becoming salesman for the same
company. In 1892 he formed a
partnership with Mr.. Nat Gather
and they conducted a successful
warehouse business until 1903. when
Mr.. Gather retired from the firm,
and Mr.. West has continued the
business under the firm name of
Jas. West & Company. During these
years as warehouseman Mr. West
has sold many thousands of hogs
heads of tobacco for farmers and
dealers throughout the dark tobacco
district of Kentucky and Tennessee.
During these years Mr.. West has
seen many evolutions in the tobacco
trade and is fully convinced that the
country is now confronting another
crisis in the trade, and unless the
producer acts quickly for his own
protection. the prices for the grow.
ing crop will be much lower than |
those prevailing for the past few
years. While he has not heretofore
been associated in the management
Of the Planters Protective Associa-
ton. he has at all times been mind
ful of the fact that some change was
necessary in market conditions at
the time of the advent of the associa-
ion. and more especially for the
benefit of the producers of tobacco. |
Mr.. West says that having observ-
I'd closely the progress of the as
ISOLATION for the past eight years,
and having seen tobacco steadily ad-
vance in price from cents per
pound in 1904 to an average of 81
cents in 1912, he is fully convinced
hat through this planters organiza-
ion the producer will find the best
way Of marketing his tobacco and
maintaining fair price for same.
And believing that it is to the best
interest Of every one in this tobacco
growing section that the price of to-
,acco be maintained at point that
will prove remunerative to the :
armer he has accepted this position
n the management of the associa-
ion and the warehouses and fac
ories under his control will be at its
disposal.
1t is understood that sales place
will be established at Hopkinsville
md this Of course means with ac-
:ompanying pricing and storage
houses
Il is not improbable that others Of
dopki svllle's well known to0ace |
men will be 10 somewise associated
With the lns'itarion. ~ ]

FORTUNE IN RARE COINS
Fat Picking for Watchfu Cashiers in
Stores, Bartenders and Street
Car Conductors.

Cashiers in stores and restaurants,
ticket agents at theaters and railroad
stations, bartenders and conductors
on cars are in fair position to be-
come collectors of rare coins, as they
handle every kind of money piece
from foreign coins to old-time money
of the United States. A saloonkeeper
in Harlem declares he has made a
small fortune during the last few
years by saving the rare coins that
are taken over the bar.
81 have a tin box filled with rare
United States pieces" he related,
"and | could have collection of for.
eign coins If ! so desired. You would
be surprised to see how anxious some
men are to get drink at the expense
Of spending rare old coin for Its
face value. Silver and paper currency
that pay good premium are given to
my bartenders for face value. / have
often noticed reluctance on the part
Of the holder before parting with the
coin. He will give last look at the
money and then place 1t on the bar
for the refreshing beverage, One man
told me that coin had been in the
the family for nearly century. He
wanted only one drink and was afraid
1 would not take the coin because of
its age. l gave him the drink and
change for the piece at its face value,
and he was overjoyed."

Little Dorothy Explains Break In De-

Family of Dolls.

Little Dorothy is the daughter of a
minister. She Las a family of fifteen
dolls, one of them being a parson
Dorothy is devoted to her treasures
For a long time she held religious
service for them, but suddenly the
services were discontinued, only to be
as unexpectedly resumed.
"Why did you stop the services,
Dorothy?" she was asked.
"Oh, the dolls decided not to have
them any more
"But why were they started AGAIN."
"They all voted that way, that is"
Dorothy hesitated, but she added
regretfully, "All except the clown and
the Teddy bear"
They were regarded as incorrigible
by the minister's small daughter. Next
day at the services they were seated
Immediately in front OF the doll
preacher, the other dolls occupying
less prominent places.

bear sitting so far forward?" in

The Growing South.

The south is forging ahead at a
great rate. The fourteen southern
states, with Missouri and Oklahoma,
have a population of 32,OOO,OOO, or
only 1S,O0O.OO0 less than the tstal pop
ulation of the United States in 1880
Since 1880 the sixteen southern states
have increased the annual value OF
their mineral production from $780,
100000 to $34O,OOO,OOO, as against
$450,OO0,0O0 in the whole country in
1880 Their manufactured products
have value within S2,O0OOOO, 900 OF
the value OF the whole country thirty
years ago. In 1880 the railroads OF the
country had an aggregate length Of
$4,000 miles. The southern states now
have $1,000 miles. From southern
ports were exported last year goods to
a value only $1OO,OOO,OOO less than the
value Of all exports from the country

London Good OYSTER Market.

London Is great consumer Of
oysters. The cheapness of the deli
cacy half a century ago created a de-
mand for it. which has hung with the
appetites of the people as tenaciously
as the habit Of smoking pipe has
among the men. 1t rs estimated that
London consumes billion a year, and
the record shows that in 1864, when
prices were very low, 700,000,000
wore eaten.
