TRY THE WHEATFIELD
FOR YOUR JOB WORK
In past years Lexington merchants
have been keeping their places of bus
iness open on Sundays. This year
they have decided to keep the stores
closed on Sunday and as a conse
quence harvest supplies are being
purchased through the week and the
merchant Is given a chance to rest
and become acquainted with his family.
On last Saturday afternoon at the
close of banking hours, E. D. Brown,
of the Lexington Bank, locked the in
ner door of the safe and on attempting
to open the safe Monday morning,
found that the combination would not
work and as a consequence the door
is yet locked. An expert will be sent
for to open the lock and an entire new
lock placed on the door. This Is the
first time the door has been locked
for several months as It had given
trouble before,
At the Council meeting last Monday
evening, present Mayor, W. E. Leach,
Councilmen, E. D. McMillan, W. P.
McMillan and R. L. Benge, Recorder
John B. Whiter An ordinance to a-
mend ordinance No 1, .restraining
animals running at large on the streets
approved and passed. The Treasurer
was instructed to pay the Evans note
against the pity. Bill of Electric Co.
was explained and a warrant for $49.
20 In payment of lights to February 1,
1907,' ordered Issued. Bill of W. G.
Scott for $24 for water rent for the
month of June, was ordered paid. On
motion Council adjourned.
Modest Claims Often Carry' the Most
' Conviction.
When Maxim, the famous gun In
ventor, placed his gun before a com
mittee of judges, he stated its carrying
power to be much below what, he felt
sure the gun whould accomplish. The
result of the trial was therefore a great
surprise, Instead of disappointment. It is
the same with the manufacturers of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. They do not pub
licly boast of all this remedy will ac
complish, but perfer to let the users
make the statements. What they do
claim, Is that It will positively cure
diarrhoea, dysentery, pains In the stom
ach and bowels and has never been
known to fail. For sale by W, P. McMillan.
