The recital at tho Opera house, ou
Thanksgiving night, under the control
and management of Mrs. liattio Llll-
aid, was a grand success. At an early
hour a] largo audience, composed of
our most cultured and intelleclual cit-
izens, were assembled, all ready aud
waiting for tho treat of eloculiou that
was to come,
For us to single out a few and praise
their etlorts would be nnjust where
all did so well. The programme was
faithfully carried out and the applause
which greeted the singers and speak-
ers and actors showed how thoy wore
appreciated. The recitations clearly
showed that Mrs. Hattie Liilard Is a
careful, painstaking teacher and that
her scholars were being excelleutly
trained. The music also demonstrated
the fact that as music teachers Miss
Sass and Miss King cannot he excelled.
DON'T BE MISLED
By cost sales, spot cash prices and the
like. Such advertising is indicative of
poor business, which we are very thank-
ful to say, we have not experienced as
yet. The secret is, that we have the
right kind of goods at the right kind of
prices and the people know it.
THEBE'S A SIGNIFICANT SOMETHING
About the the way our business is hold-
ing up. Perhaps it is the quality of
goods we are known to carry ; perhaps
the prices at which we are selling, or
perhaps it is a combination of the two.
We are not offering special bargains
in any lines, but each and every article
is marked just as low as it can be sold.
We say no more. Compare goods and
prices and judge for yourselves whether
we can save you money on your grocer-
ies or not.

The only “ABSOLUTE COST PRICE SALE” (the price the goods cost us)
ever inaugurated in the City of LaGrange.
THERE IS METHOD IN THIS MADNESS I
The present low price of cotton has caused a general stagnation in business at the
very time when every business man looks for a largo and lucrative trade. In the
anticipation of such, we have laid in an immense stock iu our various Departments,
which we are now determined to move at all hazards.
YOU NEED THE GOODS! WE NEED THE MONEY!
This tells the whole story, and realizing these two facts, we have determined, be.
ginning November,1st, 1897, and to continue for 30 days, to throw all our immense
stock in our Dry Goods Department and many articles*in our Grocery, Hardware
ami Crockery Departments upon the market at actual cost and carriage. Do you
know what this means? It means an actual saving to you of from 20 to 30
per cent, on all purchases! Don’t think for a moment that we are doing this solely
for the sake of helping the poor people, but while we are doing that we are also help-
ing ourselves to the cash, which, to a great extent, has been withheld so far. Thus
by helping you we are helping ourselves. See!
MARK THIS. This is no BANKRUPT STOCK thrown on the market; these
are no fire nor cheap auction goods, nor seconds that are bought for their cheapness
only and then passed off on an unsuspecting public as HONEST GOODS, but every
article of a well-selected $35,(XX) Dry Goods, Notions, Clothing, Shoes, Dress Goods
and Millinery stock selected solely for their respective qualities and the amount of
satisfaction given to our many customers. Sell your cotton now at 5 cents per
pound and invest the money in this Cost Price Sale, and ouT word for it, the money
you get for it will buy as many goods as 6 1-2 cent cotton will under any ordinary
circumstances. This sale is for absolute Cash over the counter Only. No pro-
duce checks taken nor goods charged at these prices. Nothing but sound hard dol-
lars will reach them. All goods without reserve, in our Dry Goods Department, will
go under these conditions, and many articles in our Grocery, Hardware and Crock-
ery Department will share the same fate.
This is the time to lay in your Winter supply. Call and see for yourself
and you will for the first time realize what an “actual cost price” sale means and see
that we do all we claim. Our stock must be reduced at least $10,000 within a short
time. Goods will go as long as they last, so see that you get your share.
Sell your cotton and make the money go as far as 6 l-2c and 7c cotton would do.
Call early and get the benefit of an unbroken stock.

Thanksgiving day was only partiul-
ly observed in our city as a holiday.
There were many family rounious
arouud tho dinner table, and turkeys
suffered. At the Methodist Church,
South, a largo congregation assembled
at 11 o’clock, and after the reading of
Ihe President’s Proclamation by L. W.
Moore, and the reading of the Psalm
by Dr. Carhart, Rev. John Gtoen
preached a sermon especially prepared
for the occasion. Tho sermon was an
able one aud tho congregation was
very attentive. Wo havo heard of uo
religions services being held at any of
the other churches ou that day.
Other makers turn out Jeans Pants,
some good, some bad—some cheap,
some high priced. We make the

is as low as that of common good*.
We save by system iu the factory, by
paying Ibe boot prices for skilled help.
Tbe pants are never slighted, they’re
always tbe same in goodness.
