Mr. h ncKee.

In looking back over the career Of
a man who has achieved SUCCESS in
the business world the first remark
usually made by the averas e man is,
''hasn't he been lucky" when gener-
ally the success thus attributed to
luck came from a email beginning
and came only after the very hardest
efforts, the most patient and uRre-
hitting labor and was entirely the
result of the application OF fine bust.
ness judgment--acquired often from
costly experience--energy and brains
to the everyday problems OF mercan
tile life, even luck counting for little
unless man has the ability to take
advantage Of it. Such is the case
with Mr.. L. H. Mckee, the wide
awake, hustling, energetic, popular
grocer whose store on Main street is
one of Hopkinsville's biggest estab-
lishments and who does grocery
business equalled by few houses in
this section Of Kentucky. From O
small beginning Mr. Mckee, has, by

A Noted Optician.

In addition to being one OF the
best known jewelers. in this end Of
Kentucky, Mr.. M. d. Kelly, of Hop
Kinsville, is also a noted optician,
being a graduate in that science and
having had wide experience. Mr..
Kelly keeps on hand at all times a
full line of fine pebble glasses and
when one makes a purchase in this
line from him he scientifically adjusts
them to the eyes in order that they
may be a relief and a help to the
eyes instead Of doing them an injury,
which is the case when the glasses
do not fit.
In addition to his stock of glasses,
Mr.. Kelly carries one Of the largest
and handsomest lines Of jewelry to
be found in Southwestern Kentucky,
and all sorts OF repair work is
promptly and scientifically done at
his establishment,
Hopkinsville Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1889-1918, 1901-06-28

keeping his eyes open and attending
strictly to business at all times
achieved an eminent success--but it
came as result of work, not luck.
Mr.. Mckee is native of Christian
county, and began his career at
Casky, where he sold groceries in
1876. Later he moved to Hopkins
Vile and became member of the
grocery firm of Cowan, Higgins &
Mckee, and still later he was with
Charles Mckee & Sons. His pres
emit business was begun in 1882,
when he became agent and manager
for Mrs. N. L. Mckee, and from the
day when he firsr began he has en-
joyed a large patronage which he,
by constant application to business,
has increased to it's present very
large proportions
One key to his success is the fact
that he carries at all times the best
stock of groceries that money can
buy, and his goods are always fresh
and pure, fact that the public has
long since recognized Another
thing--he carries large and varied
assortment and people have come to
know that no matter what they may
happen to want they can always find
it at McKees.
Mr.. Mckee enjoys very large
trade among the farmers of the
county, first, because, having beer
raised in the country, he knows just
what's needed on a farm and sc
makes it point to carry a specia
line of goods adapted to farmers
needs, then again, he is always pre-
pared to buy their produce at the
highest market prices.
In addition to his retail business
Mr. Mckee also engages in business
as a wholesaler, and furnishes stock
for many country stores in Christian
county.

Mr.. 3. M. Moss.

Everybody in Hopkinsville who
rides or who ever did ride bicycle
knows "Muncie" Moss He is TIKI
AUTHoRIrY in all matters concerning
bicycles. What he doesn't know
about bicycle is hardly worth
knowing. At his establishment on
Sixth street every ailment that the
bicycle is heir to is treated in a sci
entific manner by Mr.. Moss or one
Of his employees. He is an enthusi-
astic wheelman himself and the
work of repairing wheels is with
him sort Of labor Of love, and long
practice has made him very expert
in the work.
e. M. Moss & 90. carry q COM
plets line Of the leading make OF
bicycles of the very latest patent, his
leaders being the Columbia, Hart
ford and Rugby. These three just
can't be beat--they stand at the top,
they are perfect triumphs OF the sbi-
cycle makers arts.
Moss & Co. sell wheels from S25
to $75, and they sell lots OF 'em, too.
They also carry a complete line OF
bicycle sundries-bells, lamps,
brakes, pumps, &C., &c, which they
sell at prices as low as any one
could expect.
They are also Wholesale and re.
tail dealers in graphophones and
monographs and music for both.
In addition to all these Moss q
Go. carry large line of sporting
goods. such as footballs, baseballs,
punching bags, dumb.belIs, SC.
Their facilities for doing repair
work on wheels and guns are not
excelled anywhere. Not only is the
work done scientifically, but it is
done promptly aud at exceedingly
reasonable rates.
Several ye0rs ago Mr.. Moss be-
gan to repair bicycles without any
intention of going regularly into
the business, but his work was so
we'll done that business was forced
upon him and he was compelled TO
open up an establishment for such
work, and business continued to
pour in until to-day he has to en-
ploy assistants to do much of the
repairing, all of which, however, is
done directly under his personal
supervision.

A SPLENDID EXAnPLE.

The provision in the new army bill,
that has just become law. providing
for the appointment Of Fitz Lee as "a
general in the regular army of the
United States, added to a previous
similar provision for General Wheeler,
gives a reasonable hope that the
..bloody shirt" has been forever
buried. To President McKinley's
credit be it said. he has certaiuly
done his share in bringing about such
a "consummation, devoutly to be
wished." and it took no little moral
courage on his part to face the coun-
trv as he has done with several propo-
sitions having evidently for their pur-
pose the wiping out of sectional pre-
iudice and restoring the union OF the
States in fact as well as in name. He
has set the whole people splendid

Bows and Girls and the Curfew Law.

The Portsmouth Star saws this on
the subject of the proposed curfew
law for its town. and there are many
who will think that it is not reason
ing very far wide of the mark:
Boys should not be on the streets
at night. Girls are not there. No
body has even dared to make the
suggestion that any municipal law is
necessary to keep the girls of Ports
mouth off the streets at unseemly
hours al night or that they appear in
any but graceful and pleasant ways
by day. The girls have the same
parents, the same home training. and
they yield to the same parental di>ci-
pline that ought to govern the boys.
II the girls can be governed without
a curfew-if they do not need the aid
of the police and the public laws-the
bows do not. There is 40 harm in
the curfew itself. There is no good
in it, if not accompanied and enforced
by parental discipline. A boy is al
ready reprobate if he must be forced
to his home at night by policema
