You have undoubtedly read the account in History
where John Paul Jones gave battle to one of ihe great
English ships with a mere two mastered schooner of only
ten guns. You will remember that when the fight was
going against him, he jumped into the riggins and shout
ed aloud, “NOW’S THE TIME BOYS, GIVE IT TO ’EM
HARD! GIVE IT TO ’EM HARD!” These few words of
encouragement brought victory to the AMERICANS. The
English ship struck her flag and was towed into part a
CAPTIVE. This bit of history has a very pointed moral
that can be aptly applied to your trading business now and
during the balance of this season. We write this add so
that you may knowthat' ‘ NOW’S THE TIME”to save money
by trading with us, as we are selling everything, carried
in a general store set a BARGAIN for our customers. All
we ask is a TRIAL. Yours for prosperity,
Comer & Comer.

Coupled with the Liberal

E. L Hamilton.
In the struggle and battle of
life there is none strong enough
to bear the contest alone. All
need sympathy and help, and they
must have it or sure disaster or
defeat will overtake them. He
who thinks himself safe, when
his life-bark rides gaily before the
breeze with sails filled with winds
of prosperity, is often the weak
est of the weak when the storm
and tempest come. Thus in the
hour of sorest trial many a weak
woman has often been strong and
brave to endure, where stalwart
manhood has suecombed and drift
ed helpless and discouraged be
fore the gale of adversity. Life
is sweetened and made beautiful
by sympathy, its asperities are
toned down and its rough places
made smooth by the touch of a
gentle hand or a tone of a loving
voice, even the severest trials maj
be endured and the heaviest bur
dens borne when aided by a very
little thoughtful and* precious
help of this kind.
