The Corner Store.

Spring is full blown at the popn-
lar Corner Store. We call atten-
tiou to what Mr.. Turner says in his
advertisement this week. He never
indulges in extravagant, unreliable
statements about his merchandise.
What he says of the large pur-
chases which he made in New York
in person several weeks ago can be
altogether depended upon. Espe-
cial attention Of the ladies is called
to the many items which are emu
merated in The Corner Stores ad-
advertisement this week. Before
supplying any of your spring needs
do not fail to see the pretty new
goods. in staples and novelties, at
The Corner Store.

Using Good Judgment.

In no other occupation is good
judgment Of mora importance than
farming. The business man must
use his judgment as to making in
vestments, securing labor, market
ing products, etc. He often fnds
after it is too late that his judg-
ment as to certain transaction was
poor. The only remedy is to be
more careful in the future.
But where business men have a
few risks and a few opportunities
for using good Judgment, farmers
have many. There are more un-
known quantities in the mathemaL-
ics of farming than in the equations
of the ordinary business man in the
town or city.
At this season of the year the
weather is often deceiving. A few
brig hit, pleasant spring days ma"
cause the planter to begin TOO soon.
1t sometimes happens that valuable
seeds are lost by planting so early
that freeze kills the plants. Yet

A Plea For the Dumb Brutes

There are different ways of being
cruel to animals. You can be cruel
in a positive sense by administering
an unmerciful beating, and you can
be cruel in a negative sense by neg
lecting beast of burden or pour
ing it's feed ON the bare ground. as
is done by some persons almost
every day on the public square in
Edgefeld. The Advertiser is a
friend of the dumb brute and We
shall continue to cry aloud until
this thoughtless practice is stopped.
If you can't get a box for the feed,
get an old bag and spread 1t down,
and if you can't get that come to
The Advertiser Office and we will
give you and the mule some old
newspapers to spread upon the
ground. Every farmer who sends
his team to town should caution the
driver about properly feeding the
faithful beast of burden. Better give
a horse or mule six ears of corn in
a box than IL on the bare ground.

AFTER THREE YEARS.
Edgefield Testimony Remains
Unshaken.

Time is the best test of truth
Here is an Edgefeld story that has
stood the test of time. 1t is story
with point which will come
straight home to many of US.
Mrs E P Jackson, Cedar Row,
Edge6eld, says: 81 suffered gre .tly
from weak .and lame back which
became 80 bad that ] could hardly
get around. My sides and hips also
got sore and lame and loss of sleep
made me weak and exhausted,
Doan's kidney pills rid lie of the
attack" Statement given April IL,
l9ll.) Has used Doan's since. Over
three years later Mrs. Jackson said:
my back or kidneys seldom troub-
lie me now but when they do, Doan's
kidney pills always give me qulc k
relief"
Price SOC, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's kinney pills-the same
that Mrs. Jackson has twice pub
licly recommended. Foster Milburn

Two Bad Holes.

Mr.. w. H. Turner says the road
leading from Edgefeld to Green.
wood is very, very good except for
two very, very bad places: One is
near the home Of Mr.. Sloan Watson
and the other is near the home of
Mr.. Minick. Will somebody whis,
per this into the ears of our good.
natured supervisor? Mr.. Turner
says :hese two very, very bad
places could be worked in few
hours. Several almost impossible
places in a road make it impossible
to haul heavy load over the en-
tire road-being something like a
weak link in chain.
