received from you q letter expressing
the hope that you might have my sup
port in your declared candidacy for

epiStIe you claim TO be a Progressive
Democrat and on that very properly
base your hope OF my support. Had
your letter have delt with business or
professional matters II should have

THE HOME MERCHANT.

NoN j, good time TO revive that
grand old buy at home" slogan.
which many people are prone to fer
gel aud regard too lightly, and many
people disregard altogether. The mer-
chants Of Forrest City are all men of
nigh character and rugged honesty,
ana deserve the pat ronage OF the home
people. Sometimes when you uade
with catalogue house you get good
value. and sometimes you do not.
When you buy goods OF the home
merchant. the article Is aid out IN
'front.' of your eyes, and the home
merchant is always on the ground to
make his promises good The home
merchant also contributes 10 enter
prises of local nature from which
We all benefit more or less, and is gen
orally ready and willing 10 assist Us,
as friend, in times of stress aud
trouble.
The money people send away TO cat
2iogue houses is gone 1t never comes
back.
When you buy from a foreign house
}oaouiy see a picture Of what you are
supposed to get, and sometimes when
your purchase reaches you, it falls far
short Of what the picture looked like
Hence The Times contends, and has
always coutended, that it is safest and
most satisfactory to give the trade Of
She nome community to the home
merchants. Any number of good ar
guments why this should be done
might be advanced Many Of our
readers have their own good reasons
Why they should give the home mer-
chant their patronage. 1t is needless
Iof US to enlarge upon these private
reasons. The home merchant stands
oy US when crops fail. lie is friend
IA need as we'll as in prosperity. Let $
give him the business which is his 10y
tlsht, and not to the catalogue houses

Olty merchants your trade, il you are
