-We are Fire, Life, Accident, Health and Bond Insurance Farms and City Property Mortgage Loans glad the wind has ceased blowing, as the cool wind for the last week, has been so bad on cotton and vounsr veg etables. Mr. Frank Fowler is Dlantin? over his cotton, and some report poor stands on account of wet weather. Very little corn has been planted, but will be in a few days if the weather is favorable. Mr.

and Mrs. Rohert Stamps nnd No matter whether you have much or little money, the safe place for it is in a good, reliable bank like ours. If you keep money around the house, it has been aptly said that you are not saving it but merely gambling with it every night, with the odds not in your ayor. If the amount is Bmall, even then its loss may mean much to you. If it is great, the greater the risk you run of fire, burglary or other accident.

Let us care for it. We are prepared to do so. i i FARMERS MERCHANTS BANK, The Bank That Backs the Farmer A. M. SECREST, President 1 C.

About the hour mentioned she showed signs of dif fioult breathing and gasping only once or twice, let her head drop and was dead.
