both prominent young people Of this

Mr.. Lucke is the genial proprietor

joying more than an ordinary share
of prosperity, to which he is justly
entitled. The bride is the accom-
plished daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. W.
W. Thackery and holds the esteem
of all who have known her during her
long residence here.
Later the young couple will engage
in housekeeping in this city, and the

After the ceremony the hospitable

bled to witness the knot tied. and
ample honOrs were showered upon the
newly we'd couple to start them on
their life's journey rejoicing.

family reunion Christmas day, when
twenty-five of the estimable family
partook of the festive turkey. Sons,
daughters and the proud parents of
the family were all there and all en-
joyed a harmonious reunion that will
long be remembered by the partic-
ipants. After the sumptuous dinner
the time was passed with music,
song and "reminiscences of by-gone

they will enjoy many more seasons of
good cheer.

WALLER.-One of the saddest deaths
that ever occurred in this county was
that of Mrs. Charles Waller of Union
City. After a painful illness Of little
over a week. her death came and on
last Tuesday, she was called to her
eternal rest. Mrs. Waller, who was
81 years old was the oldest child
Of Mr.. and Mrs. John D. Hamilton, of
Union City, and hers is the first death
to occur in this large family OF twelve
children. Mrs. Waller was a beautiful
type of womanhoOd' A true christian
in every sense OF the word, a model
wife and mother and a daughter who
honored her parents at all times. She
was widely known and much beloved
and her death, right in the very noon
day of lite is extremely sad. She will
be missed by large circle Offriends and
relatives, but mostly in the home,
where now husband and eight children
are mourning the loss of beloved wife
and mother. She was ready at all times
to make a sacrifice for those she loved
and her many christian deeds are
worthy example to others. Besides her
husband and children she is sur
vived by her father and mother, Mr..
and Mrs. John D. Hamilton, one of the
most highly respected couples of this
county, and eight brothers and three
sisters. among whom are Messrs.
James, and Thompson Hamil-
ton of this city. Her funeral was
preached on Wednesday at the Union
Christian church, by Elder L. H. Rey-
nolps in the presence OF one Of the lar
gest gathering of friends ever seen in
that section. A touching feature was
the sight of her eight stalwart and man
ly brothers, bowed down with their first
great grief, acting as pail bearers. Her
burial took place in the Union Gene
terry and all that was mortal of Mrs,
Lou Hamilton Waller was laid to rest.

tally, is well known and much beloved.
Miss Kennedy, who is an attractive
blonde, is possessed of a beautiful dis
position and has those traits of wOm-
anhOOd that will make her a helpmate,
indeed, for the man of her choice. For
several years she was popular sales

Thurman Grocery Co

The old system of "charg-
ing it," in which the good in
variably paid for the bad, has
been completely supplanJed
by the Thurman Grocery Co.
by the cash methods which
are strictly enforced in their
establishment. The cash sys-
tenn levels all ranks, for by
cash and cashalone, nOtcredit
standing nor good intentions,
can goods be procured. Thus
the stOrekeeper, with money
in one hand and an order for
goods in the other, goes to the
door of producer or manu-
facturer and secures at the
very limit of the cost of pro-
duction, prices which mean a
saving to his patrons and
which cash only can secure.
Mr.. Thurman's stock COM
prises the best productions
in the food lines, and by rapid
sales goods are kept fresh,
pure and wholesome, Furs,
hides, tallowand wool are also
purchased from the farmers
of the surrounding country,
the highest market prices be-
ing always offered in cash.
Mr.. Thurman has been en-
gagged in the grocery business
in Lexington and other points
for eighteen years, is an ex-
pert buyer and an enterpris
ing business man. The 'spot
cash" which he pursues is,
after all, the popular one. 1t
is following strict business
principles to their legitimate
results, small profits and
rapid sales with each trans
action complete in itself.
