Mr. Hardin Norris, clerk of the drug
store of R. Shoemaker, Perry, 111., nays:
"A man came into our stare the other
day and said, I want a bottle of that
stuff that saves children's lives. I read
in the News about it. The children may
get sick when we can not get tle doctor
quick enough. It's the medicine you
sell for croup." ile alluded to Cham
berlain's Cough Reraedp and bought a
bottle before he left the store. For sale
by Dr. J. E. Pbinnev.
An agent of some eastern depart
ment store, was in this town selling bills
of goods to our citizens and soliciting
other trade for the future last week. Of
course, we presume be made his new
customers believe that they were getting
goods at very much reduced rates, but
we will warrant he did rot tell them the
money tliey were seocing out of the
town to an eastern depai tmcnt store for
goods would not benefit your home mer-
cliaots or your town. It is our candid
opinion, the quality of noods bought of
these traveling fakirs will in some way
be inferior to goods that might be pur
chased of our reliable liome merchants.
Even if the goods, sent away for are a
little cheaper, is it 1b right thing to ig
nore the home stores? We do not say it
is so here, but we have known instances
where people would run in debt at the
home stdres and then when they did get
hold of a little money, would wend it
Away to the department stores and let
tlie Accommodating merchant at home
wait until they were ready to pay them.
We believe Hie all wrong, and, If ur
good citileos ever expect to build up a
nice, thriving little town in their midst,
tliey most by all mM-s support and pat
ro lire thv home inorcbwta aim burners
otorpnata. Their lotereeU are identical
with the peo-aJa who Mpwi to maka
