These akjs many reasons for

inside arrangement with wholesalers by which be saves a considerable per cent to give to customers. In all manner of dress goods and dress trimmings be carries a big stock. Ask for Charley Mobley's "Golden Bole" if yon do not know where it is.

is making money tor them rapidly, for thongh they sell goods very low they sell so many that the profits are large in the aggregate. Go to Dunn's before you make yonr pur

chases.

sive aud beautiful. Tbe clouds that

bad darkened the sky since the Saturday previous broke away Wednes

day morniug, and the sun shone out bright, warm and gladsome a good omen for the happy event showing that nature rejoiced in the nuptials of the well-mated couple. Miss Nellie is a daughter of the late Capt. John M. Slows, one of the

oldest and most respeotcd citizens of

Monrce county. She is a young lady of rare intellectual attainments and will make just the wife that an energetic, progressive business man would desire. Jos. N.

can the great success of this house

be traced. He has established a name for prompt, square-dealing that has given character to his firm,

and every man iu the county real

izes that whatever "Joe Alexander ' (as be is familiarly known), agrees

to do, is settled beyond dispute.

His word is good for money or eon-

tracts, and all that people wish is hi for him to lay that he will do a certain thing. This is the kind of a roan Joseph N. Alexander is, and

we rejoice in his good fortune. The happy couple went from here to
