Doctors7Say; Bilious and Intermittent Fevers which prevail in miasmatic dis tricts are invariably accompan ied by derangements of the Stomach Liver and Bowels. The Secret of Health. The liver is the great "driving wheel" in the mechanism of man, and when it is out of order, the whole system becomes de ranged and disease is the result.

Now these gcods must go at a sacrifice, as we made up our mini to sell goods at the beginning of this season at the lowest possi ble figures, as we don't know what kind of a seai son is before us. It would take up too much space to quote figures. All we ask come and see for yourstlf. S. Abraham tfe Co. 4519 Is in Town Call on him for house or sign painting. He will satisfy you always mkms Advancing Prices. Home and Farm. The panic which demoralized business and destioyed confidence in the future was "followed by a long period of stagnation and of idleness in many brandies of busi ness. The inevitable result was that prices of all produc ts, uf manufact ured products and uf firm prod ucts fell below the cost of pruti ac tion. In other words, idle men cannot buy all they want, and this demand being cut off, prices had no IxHtom. But within the past sixty days there has been a steady advance in the prices of many products, and in some products, such as beet and wheat and oil, the advance has been notable. This advance is natural enough; it has been expected; except for the disturbed condition of our fi nances, the deficit in the treasury and the uncertainty as to the f'u- would have come before As it is, there seems to be a very general belief that with Mr. Cleve land and the next House in control of the Republicans, nothing can or would be done with our finances for good or evil and that for two years at least we will go on as we now are. Within that time green backs will not te reduced, silver will not be increased and we will have to make the best of tilings as '.vc find them. We trust that the advance in tin1 price of cotton will not have the effect to induce the Southej-n farm er to plant mere cotton. As wheat ind meat ar advanc ing, it is more than ever necessary that the Southern farmer raise more supplies; raise more corn and hogs, more oats; more forage crops, more dairy products, more sheep, more fruit and vegetables. Next reduce your cotton acreage far as possible and try to improve its quality. Then otton will pay. It will pay in no other way. In truth we cannot expect any great increase 111 prices, speaking generally. As we havejoxplained, all farm products have been too low, and the reaction 1 as come, but we need not expect old prices tor cotton when we produce any thing like 9,000.000 bales. So make your calculations according ly. Try to reduce the cost of cot ton by raising your own supplies and then increase the price of cot ton by decreasing the acreage. 20 Chrysanthemum plants, 20 choice varieties with printed in instructions how to grow them to perfection, for $1.00 post paid. 20 lolet plants, 5 varieties tor $1.01 post paid.

The quality and price are as remarkable to me as to you. Let me fit you. 1 have a line lot of new shoes that arc not quite as cheap in proportion as the clothing, because thev cost me mere; but they were selected with a special eye to qualitv, and I don't care to make much profit on them. 1 still have a few sets of harness which I want to get rid" of. Make me an offer for them. W. B.I'HTS, Pre., We call special attention DRESS GOODS for Which is no w complete. See our line of Crepon Dress Goods. THE So many people would like to know why it is that we can sell goods cheaper than anybody else: even the merchants are astonished, and the drummers call to see if we really have what we advertise. Here is our plan: Our agent is ever on the lookout for firms that are on the verge of bankruptcy and ruin, and, with cash in hand to buy the whole lot at less than its value. We then give the people the benefit of very low prices. Big prices will not do in these times, when even the wealthy cannot afford to waste their money and tne poor require double duty on every dollar and every penny.
