    3. July 16, 1891 The Hooker "dots" are unavoidable crowded out this week. There will be preaching in the Baptist church next Saturday and Sunday. Several of our town folks attended the Aliance meeting at Crooked Creek last Tuesday, among the number being "ye" editor. The County Farmers Alliance was in session at Crooked creek church last Tuesday. Maj. Barksdale and Clarke Lewis were endorsed for the U. S. Senate, Dr. G. A. Teunnisson for the State Senate and D. A. Dawson for the Legislature. The proceedings will appear in our next issue. We are pained to chronicle the death of Mr. W. R. Selman, which sad and untimely event occurred at his home near Tryus last week. Mr. Selman was one of the staunchiest citizens in the county, and a lovable Christian gentleman, the loss of whom the community will deeply feel. He leaves a wife and several children some of whom are married to mourn his departure. Peace to his ashes. D. C. TULLY AND CO. who have been here for the past tow months in the business of renovating feather beds by the latest steam process, are doing a good business and giving entire satisfaction. House keepers should attend to this at once and have their feathers renovated to prevent sickness of any kind, as they will remain here but a short while longer. You can't buy a feather in any city unless the same has undergone a process of renovation. It is condusive to good health, as any physician will tell you and as common sense will teach. The renovating process not only removes every particle of filth, but it givesto the bed a degree of comfort that is never before experienced. The feathers take on their livliest state and remain so. Some dissatisfaction is expressed in some parts of this county about the work of other companies, but Tully and Co. have been in the business for years and thoroughly understand it.
