PUBLIC SALES. If you contemplate having a public sale this season don't forget that the place to get your bills printed is at The Democrat office. No office in the county gets out a more artistic or better bill than The. Democrat, and our prices are as low as any office in the county. Coupled with this is the fact that a free notice of each sale is published in The Democrat, and “everyone reads The ■ Democrat.” Such notice really does you more good and is read by more people than your bills. Remember the advantages of getting your bills printed at this office arid be sure to come here for them. Colehestvr's Tlirinkmciviiiff Pies.
