big stock of paints, oils and varnishes.
The firemen directed their whole efforts
to prevent this from catching. The
fact that there was no wind and that
they had ample water helped them and
they succeeded in keeping the fire in
the drug store, which in less than an
hour was a mass of embers, The build-

finest stores in the county, and a big

Competition
The thing for the merchants of tnis com-
munity to do in their own interests is to
advertise faithfully, and to make their
printed announcements interesting and
helpful to those whose trade and favor
are desired.
The serious cempetitors of the retailers of this com-
munity are the big stores cf the big cities—those
that send out catalogues and have mail.order depart-
ments.
The poorest way to offset tlile competition is for our
local merchants to rernaiii silent. For them not to
"speak up" is to give the meil-order houses a better
chance to get business from this community.
