The railroad company is work
ing a large crew of hands here
and at the gravel pit .just west of
town and are loading out several
trains of gravel a day, which is
being taken over on the Memphis
division. It is said that two more
sidetracks will be put in here on
the south side of the main track,
and later on it is expected that the
roadbed will be ballasted and heavy
steel laid from Diaz to Batesville.
1 The company’s payroll at this
| point is now pretty heavy. Tues
day was payday here and the checks
disbursed by Agent F. C. Hoyt
on that day amounted to something
over $4,000.
THERE IS ALWAYS
A REASON
Hot Weather Fabrics
This store has always been famous for
its good taste in the selection of fash
ionable fabrics, and we flatter ourselves
that there is no other store in this com
munity, and in very few of the larger
cities, which can show such a tine line.
A late Spring has made it necessary for
us to force the sale, to get two months
business into one. Wash goods and
light weight Dress Goods are all mark
ed for rapid clearance.
I
Seasonable Groceries
Here is the Department where we make
and keep friends. They say that the
way to a man’s heart is through his
stomach, and we know that the way to
a woman’s heart is to sell her the good
things at prices which she can afford to
pay. The difference in a good grocery
and a poor one is not so much in Dol
lars as it is in Sense—a Sense of Duty
well performed; of cleanliness and a
regard for quality.
Summer Sale of Fine Shoes
We sell Courtney’s Shoes because we are ready to
prove that they are better in every way than any other
kind. This is no idle advertising jingo. They are better
because they are made stronger. Each shoe has the top
or vamp leather in one solid piece, and in addition has the
tip sewed on over it, making the shoe stronger than any
other kind. Our whole line for Men, Women and Children
is made in this strong and splendid manner.
FASHIONABLE FABRICS AND NOVELTIES
We are always a little ahead of the season and we
are showing some of the latest designs in fancy dress
goods which are so popular in the fashion centers of the
country. We are always first in introducing the new and
up-to-date things and you can rest assured that what you
buy from us is always the correct style.
