ELECTRIC LIGHTS AND POWER.

At last it seems that Walhalla and
community are about to have cleo
trio lights and power. Probably no
one thing could do as much good for
the town and community as an cleo
trio plant. The promoters Of the
new enterprise are mon interested in
the development of this section, not
only because they hope to derive
profit from the development, but be-
cause they arc Southern men and are
Interested in a personal way in the
development Of their country.
The books Of subscription will be
opened next week, and it seems to
us that every person in Walhalla who
has money to invest should rally to
the new enterprise, subscribing with
reasonable liberality and in general
Such an enterprise as is proposed by

est that promises success for the un-
dertaking from the beginning.
Electric lights and power for this
community will be OF untold benefit
to all the people, and these gentle

should have done for ourselves

chen when the time comes for ac-

We DO not think that we over-es-
climate the importance Of electricity
TO the community when we make the
assertion that. with clcctr't lights
and power conveniently available,
Walhal!a will grow more in the first
five years after its installation than
she has grown in the preceding
twenty-five years. This is an age
when it is practically an impossible

Beautiful Teeth
We Believe They Are Best
Assured by the Use of
This Guaranteed Tooth
Powder

One of beauty's chief charms is
a set of beautiful teeth, firm, white
healthy teeth. One cannot be beau
tiful without them. Having them
lends attractiveness to any face,
no matter how plain it may other
wise be.
The very best way we know of
for you to have beautiful teeth,
healthy teeth, set in firm, rosy
gums, is to use Rexall Pearl Tooth
Powder. It has given such univer-
sal satisfaction that we do not hest
tate to guarantee it in your case.
If it does not please yOu-if its
use does not convince you that it
is an admirable preparation for
cleansing the teeth and purifying
the mouth-your money back. The
antiseptic properties of Rexall
Pearl Tooth Powder tend to pre-
serve the life and health of the
teeth by destroying the germs of
disease. Any tooth preparation
that does not do this is not q true
dentifrice. The regular use of
Rexall Pearl Tooth Powder will,
we believe, greatly prolong the
usefulness of the teeth, and save
many dental pains and bills. Rex
all Pearl Tooth Powder is a toilet
necessity. An unusually large box
for 25 cents. Sold IN this COM
munity only at our store. The
