loved ones here to join those gone

was born 8 children; 5 girls and 3
boys. Two girls preceded her to the
land beyond. She professed faith in
our loving Savior years ago, and join
ed the Baptist church at Mt. Hope,
of which she was a worthy member
when the end came. .
She was almost an invalid for 4
years before her death but never gave
up hope till the end came. She 'told
her children before she went' that
she was ready and wanted to go home
to rqst from toil and care. She was
a loving companion and devoted moth
er, loved and respected by all who
knew her.
She leaves to mourn her departure:
a husband, 6 children, 3 sisters and
a host of other relatives, and friends.
Those surviving are: B. F. Blaine,
husband; Mrs, Thos. Bingham, Mrs.
John Bingham, Mrs. Thos. Angel, and
Joe Blaine, all of Franklin ; Messrs.
Robert and Bill Blaine, of Great
Falls, Mont. All are of mature age.
The remains were laid to rest at
Patton Chapel cemetery, May 23, to
await the final day. Revs. A. S.
Solesbee and D. L. Earnhart attended
the funeral services.
We extend to the family and
friends our heart-felt sympathy. We
know and realize that we can not call
mother back, but let's all strive to
meet ner in a better world on high.

COWBOY THRILLS
FRANKLIN LADS
Tex F.lam, friendly, unassuming
Texas cowboy, blew into Franklin
Monday to put on his exhibition of
lassoing and gunplay at the Idle
Hour theatre on Monday night.
"I'll, bet he's lassoed many a buffalo
on the plains," remarked Dan Carter,
viewing the street 1 exhibition from
his seat on the curbing.,
Tex, with sombrero, chaps, silk
handkerchief, high-heeled shoes, and
lasso held an audience in the district
of the loafers' bench for the entire
afternoon. He showed the spectators
how to lasso boys in full run ; he
lassoed them from the top, from the
bottom, and, for good measure, las
soed a dog or two to show that it
could be done.
Two years ago Tex, whd had spent
all his life on the Mexican border,
concluded he would see America. At
taching a set of horns from a cham
pion Texas longhorn to the front of
his truck and carrying the stuffed
head of another longhorn to hang to
the front of the theatres he was to
visit, Tex has since traveled in 42
states.
, For nine years the cowboy was a
Texas ranger, and during that time
aided in the capture of numerous
bandits along the Mexican border.
The mountain country, Tex says, is
decidedly to his liking, and the people
are the friendliest he has met in, many
a day.

Arthur S. Hcrrington, Texarkana, Texxas.

anxious to tell everybody about your wonderful remedy. May God
bless you, refer anyone you want to me. I am a poor man and
not able to advertise this remedy as I would like too.
With best wishes, I am sincerely, M. A. RICHARDSON.
This is not half enough said for your medicine.
Write to Herrington's Drug Store, Texarkana, Texas, for informa

For sometime now we have been rearranging our stock and getting in new supplies with a
view to giving the mail order houses and chain stores a knock-out blow in so far as Macon
County is concerned. Since opening our store our low prices have resulted in a great volume
of trade. This volume has reached such proportions that we are now able to sell for only a
slight prof it and still make a little money. We quote a few prices below and please bear in
mind that we are not putting on a sale and that these prices are not special prices but the reg
ular, ordinary, everyday prices that are calculated to save you an immense sum of money in
the course of a year. Ten pennies saved is a dime and ten dimes saved amounts to a dollar.
Save your pennies, dimes and dollars by getting in the habit of trading where your money
will buy the most.
