. One of ,tho; largfwt timber deals
mad o in Maury county in many years
waa recorded Friday In the office of
County Register Jaincs J. Pogue.
Eighteen thousand dollars cash was
pa'd for the standing timber on 5o2
acres of land or" nearly $::o an acre.
. The big Memphis lumber concern
of George C. Brown & Company was
the purchaser, buying all the mer
chantable) timber on the Hardin May
berry farm on Duck river in the fourth
district. This timber was sold by W.
! W I!i.,lnn .,.:. T .,-t..l,,,,.
jjinuwi aim wiic ul j.i;mnuuij,
who only six months ago purchased
the entire farm, timber and all, from
L,, II. Maybeny. Ho paid $.12',D0O for
the place. His timber-sale -"makes the
farm cost him, only $14;000 and it is
said to be one of the finest bodies of
land of its size in that section of the
county, although a little inaccessible.
However, the new road being con
structed from Bryants Station to Left
wich will put it much closer to the
markets. ,
I'our hundred seventy-nine acres of
the place was purchased this year by
Mr, 'Mayberry from America .Mayber
ry for the consideration of $17,000,
the timber within the year selling for
almost the entire cost of the farm.
This farm probably contains the
largest and best body of standing tim
ber left in the county. Only in small
and scattered acreages is any mer
chantable timber left in Maury county.

n; H. Elder, "M.; D., with' offices at
410 Schradzki , Building, l'eoria, Illi
nois, comes out with his . un'qualifiod
endorsement of Tanlac.
Dr. Elder graduated from Butler
University of Indianapolis, Ind., later
took a post graduate course at Rush
College, Chicago, and has also studied
abroad.
He has been in active practice over
forty' years twenty-five years in
l'eoria and is one of the best known
physicariu' of that city. '
"So far as. my knowledge," said
Dr. Elder,! i,n, an interview recently
"medical science has never-produced
a niodicine that brings results like
Tanlac. It is altogether too good to
keep from suffering humanity and I
have been prescribing it in my, prac
tice for some time with remarkable
results. ; ' '.
"For years I had "suffered from
stomach trouble and rheumatism and
had devoted my best thought trying
to find relief, but all to i no avail.
Right after eating, gas would form
in my stomach and affect my heart,
causing pt)or circulation, cold hands
and feet, dizzy spells, spots before
my eyes, peculiar feelings, terrible
headaches, and cramps in my stom
ich.. The rheumatism was the kind
that is caused by uric acid deposits
in the blood, which find their way
into the joints, and the pain was so
great ! could hardly, stand to move
my legs . and arms. '. '
"So, it's no surprise that I devoted
lots of time, and thought,' using all
my powers, trying to free myself of
these troubles. . But nothing J" ever,
found until I got Tanlac afforded me
more than a little temporary relief.
And here is how I found out the pow
ers cf Tanlac: I had a patient who
had suffered for years with the same
kind of troubles and while I did all
l couwi'W&him, .tliesamo as foi' P.yM
neiii ne..iHea to .improve any. vveii,
this party came lo my office one day,
after having been away for about six
months, and I never in all my life
saw a man look .in better health or
seem to feel better. While sitting
fhecr in iny offioe, ho told me Tanlac
was what brought: about the wonder
ful change. I cbiHd not tloTilk it. f(4
I knew what an .awful, condition he
had been in, and I made up my mind
then and there' to try Tanlac in my
own case. So I did and the results
are that a few bottles relieved me
entirely of stomach trouble and rheu
matism and all my other ailments as
well. I am an extra hearty eater, es
pecially of meats and such foods as
often produce bad effects, but none
of these things disagree with me any
more. . So now, as I have discovered
the value of Tanlac. I am ready to
uouor it-as ono of the most" beneficial
of all medicines. I have prescribed
it, in " c'asps of rheumatism, kidney
and bladder disorders and a run down
condition, with wonderful results. I
feel that t '"ought," for the . benefit of
suffering humanity, to give my exper
ience with Tanlac to the general pub
lie." , .. v . ' y: ;;

broken into and robbed Thursday.
They were the dry goods, store of 11.
I England, the grocery and meat
shop of Banko and Cooper's grocery.

it was impossibe to tell just how
much had been taken in merchandise.

this morning of the robberies and
Constable Goad is working on the
case. Bloodhounds have been ordered
out from Nashville and will be put on

DANIEL CJIPID,NEig
SO BUSY IN MAURY
THIRTEEN COUPLES WENT THE
MATRIMONIAL ROUTE TO BLISS
. CHRISTMAS EVEV '
Daniel Cupid had the time of his
sweet young life In Maury county
Christmas Eve. ! He succeeded in unit
ing thirteen couples with but a single
thought. It was a record breaker for
marriages. Deputy Clerk Theodore
Lipscomb never tires of aceoiniuodac
ing the young folks. Himself happily
married for more than half a centu
ry he believes in encouraging Mr.
Cupid and nothing gives', him more
pleasure than to issue a marriage li
cense unless it is the issuance of a
couple of them.
Not only did the little love god
break a day's record but he bids fair
to establish a new record for Decem
ber. In the thirty one days . of last
December just sixty licenses were is
sued. Already with five more days
to come seventy-two marriages have
been authorized Jn the county.. Sev
eral more are assured and it begins to
look like December will be the best
month of the year for uniling: loves in
Maury county, ' ; V

jured and is. still unable to get about.
His card show3 the spirit of the man
in his affliction. It is: -
"My dear friend: '
"Never stop an automobile by get
ting in its way. It will bruise your
body and break your bones, and might
Impair your disposition. As for me,
bruises are healed, bones are mend
ing, disposition is intact, and I wish
