that Mr. Oates conducted one of
the most successful mercantile
sah's ever held in our town before
his departure for Tuscola in March,
and we judge that this sale con
vinced him that advertising pays,
for he is now advertising liberally
in the Tuscola Tribune. Mr. Oates
had the reputation of being one of
tin- best business men in western
Arkansas. Hut let that be as it may.
the fact is that now as he and Lon
