HlISFIELU'S SATURDAY

Tomorrow morning at 8 O'Clock Hais-

tiesburg. Twenty thousand dollars
worth of seasonable merchandise, dry
goods, ladies' ready-to-wear, millinery,
and shoes, will be offered at whole
sale, and in many cases below whole
sale prices.
The reason for putting their stock
on the market at such reduced prices
is the present lease on the building in
which the firm has done business fol
the past two years will expire shortly
and it is their intention to vacate the
building and reopen in larger quarters
For this reason the stock will b.
closed out or reduced as much as pos
sible to save the expense Of MOVING

A Popular Laurel Gent.

Very few people visit Laurel with
out stopping in at Fine Bros. to greet
and shake hands with that genial and
clever gentleman Mr.. G. L. Trepag-
nier, aud who is undeniably one OF
the most universally popular men in
that hustling young city. Everybody
in all that region round about Laurel
and throughout Jones and all neigh
boring counties know Trepagnier aod
never think of going to Laurel With
out dropping in to see him. There is
something about his honest, homely
face and manner that al once wins
your confidence and one feels that he
is friend on whom you can al avs
count and rely. And Trepagnier is
never so busy but he will stop to greet
friend. Whether from the town or
country, rich or poor, saint or sin
ner, 1t is the same When the Lord
creates a man he prints his character
upon his brow; and upon the genial,
affable, open face of our friend he
painted that of an honorable, honest
and golden-hearted gentleman. The
great house of Fine Bros. is a credit
to Laurel, our State and this Southe
land, but aside from their beautiful
line Of goods, Trepagnier is undenia-
bly, strong magnet when it comes to
drawing trade.
