A Delightful Occasion.
Miss Jessie Chastain, on Thurs
day, Feb. 8, ’94, had witnessed
another mile-stone of life, a birth
day, and in connection with this
had invited a few of her many
friends to enjoy that memorial
day with her. The day arrived,
but brought with it a dark and
gloomy morning as everything
bid fair to be a day’s continued
ruin. But the guests heeded not
the gloomy morn, but soon gath
ered at Miss .lessie’s hospitable
home, where they found every
thing perfectly arranged to add
all possible enjoy meut to every
visitor. Namely; Misses Tennie,
Blanche and Neva Pursloy and
Misses Maggie Nash, LudieNeely,
and Mrs. Frank Sims of Wator
ville, Mrs. Hugh Sims of LuFay
ette, also Mr. H. J. Healing and
Mr. J. E. Rosser of Rock Spring,
and Trion’s most gifted minister,
Rev. M. M. Walraven, lmd the
honor of being part of the guests.
They after a few hours of perfect
pleasure, were conducted to the
dining room where it was font d
that Miss Jessie, with the assist
ance of her sister, and otl nr - ,
had prepared one of the tnest
dinners that we were eyer seated
to. And in connection it was
shown that the guest not only
had a welcome from Miss I'essie,
but by her accomplished father,
and brother, it was shown that
we abided in an extended wel
come. Then we were invited to
return to the parlor again where
pleasant conversation was carried
on until late in the afternoon,
when came the time, parting,
when all extended to Miss Jessie
their heart-felt thanks for the
dayß enjoyment.' For we never
spent a day more pleasantly.

Here is the point. We do not of
fer you bargains on our Bargain
Days alone, as was insinuated by

, gain Days (Saturdays) we make
j special prices on some particular
item, or items, for the benefit of
’ those who patronize us through
' the week. Wo will contiuue our
