COCHRAN
ROMANTIC MARRIAGE

In November when the Record
Press gave a hint that Tom
Cochran was going to Louisville
on business of a more romantic
nature, than buying hardware.
or attending stockholders meet
ings of a big Insurance Co., it
came nearer telling the facts
than was generally known. On
November 18th, Mr.. Cochran
and Miss Lily Coffield were mar
ried at the residence OF Rev. T.
V. Joiner in Louisville, by that
gentleman in the presence of his
family and few friends. After
the ceremony the happy couple
returned to the brides home
where he left her returning to
his hotel for supper, thus not
even letting the brides sister
know of the marriage, and when
the groom returned to Marion he
did not divulge his secret to even
his most intimate friends. Last
week Mr.. Cochran went to Louis
vile again, ostensibly on lnsur-
ance business. He and R. l..
Moore made several trips to An
chorage where the big Citizens
National Life Insurance Co.,
has its Offices but never a word
did Tom divulge to his compan-
ion of his marriage two months
ago. DR.. Moore did not learn Of
it until his return to Marion,
where he learned that Mrs.
Cochran had returned home with
her husband. The bride is a
daughter of the late X. Coffield
former postmaster Of Marion
and was reared here, her mother
being a niece Of the late R. N.
Walker and Of his sister Mrs.
Dell Wilson, thus making the
bride a second cousin of Miss
nellie Walker and Of Mesdames
H. K. Woods and ]. w. Blue. Of
the groom it is useless to speak.
He is known and loved by every
body who lives in the county and
by hundreds who have moved to
other parts and all will wish him
the greatest JOY in his welded
bliss. He deserves it for he is
a recognized leader in all church,
business, financial and political
matters. We are for you, Tom.

CURE THAT CAT.ARRH

Our climate with it's sudden changes
is conducive to catarrh-which is
chronic Inflammation of the mucous
membrane surface of head-nose or
throat.
One months local treatment with
Paxtine Toilet Antiseptic a,will con-
vince the most skeptical that Paxtine
is not palliative but specific for all
catarrhal conditions.
Paxtine is perfectly harmless an
tiseptic and germicide in powder form
which contains all of the antiseptic
qualities of liquid antiseptics, but
with other valuable cleansing, germi-
cidal, and healing ingredients added.
Just little in glass of water as
needed-used as spray and gargle,
will not only remove the accumulated
secretions, but heals the inflammation,
destroys the germs of disease, and dis
pels the disagreeable odor caused by
chronic catarrh.
