THE BEST ALWAYS
It ip a fact that we give the best
goods and the best value tor your
monev at all times. You must be
pleased with all >ou ger. from us or
the money paid to us is here for you.
Butter.
There is nothing that annoys the
husband or wife more than the find
ing of bu.ter on the Üble that is
notg'veet and nice. Besides having
contracts with some of the finest
dairi-s for the best Jersey butter,
we are handling the very finest
Creamery Butter we can buy.
Coffee.
An evidence of the fact that the
coffee of some of Rome s grocers is
not what it should be, is .the pur
chase of our Quality and Quantity
coffee this week by many families in
Rome, whose coffee trade we have
worked for, ‘without success, for a
long time. To one part) we sold
one can containing three pounds as
a sample and ihree days later he
brought an trder from his little
town for 8 cans, or 24 lbs The
price is $1 00 for a 3 lb can, which
contains the best Mocha and Java
that grows. No chance for it to
lose any of its strength oi aroma
when you can get it in a sealed can.
If that is too high for your purse,
then call for Pavonia coffeo put up
in pound packages and a silver
plated spoon for 12 cents. We
guarantee this coffee to be superior
to any package goods on this mar
ket, and you would do well to buy
£a supply while the roasters are
offering such a great inducement to
get it introduced here, If we do
not give you better value for your
money when you get coffee from us
than you can get anywhere, we will
make no charge for the goods.
Yeast.
We are agents for Fleischmann’s
celebrated fresh yeast and you can
get it fresh from us every day.
Grocers can get their supp ies fresh
from us three limes per week.
Brooms.
Neverin the history of our busi
ness have we had the‘bargains in
brooms that we are offering now.
We not only have the best made
brooms but we nought them at a
bargain! Here ate some of our
prices of our last purchase: A35
cents broom for 25 cents; 25 cents
bro m for 20 cents, and a 20 cents
broom for 15 cents.
Floar.
Flour cannot be bettei than
Hand’s Best. It has been placed
in the homes of more than three
hundred Romans and stands with
out a complaint. It will cost you
nothing to try it. Price $3 00 per
100 lbs.

NOT ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD.
A fact often overlooked, or not al
ways understood, is that women suffer
as much from distressing kidney and
bladder troubles as the men. The womb
is situated back of and very close to the
bladder, and for that reason any dis
tress. disease or inconvenience mani
fested in the kidneys. back, bladder or
urinary passage is often, by mistake, at
tributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort.
The error is easily made and may be
as easily avoided by setting urine aside
for twenty-four hours; a sediment or
settling is evidence that your kidneys
and bladder need doctoring. If you have
pain or dull aching in the back, pass
water too frequently, or scanty supply,
with smarting or burning, —these are
also convincing proofs of kidney trouble.
If you have doctored without benefit,
try Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the
great kidney remedy. The mild and the
extraordinary,effect will surprise you.
It, stands the highest for its wonderful
cures. If you take a medicine you
should take the best. At druggists fifty
cents and one dollar. You may have a
sample bottle and pamplet, both sent
free by mail. Mention Rome Tribune
and send your address to Dr. Kilmer
& Co., Binghamton, N. Y. The pro
prietors of this paner guarantee the
genuineness of this offer. t

A QUEER MISTAKE
Weitera Union Reports of Bal imoie-
Game Were Wrong.
BOW THE TRIBUNE TOLD THE NEWS
The Followers <» Baltimore Were Ccmp etely
Boded W hen They Saw ihn 'j rue
ttcore in The Tribune Yesterday
Monday night a pall of gloom settled
down on the ,few faithful rooteis in
Rome for the Boston team.
The western union wire grew hot with
the story of the ptoud hubits inforious
defeat, and as inning after inning was
.reeled off it told the tale of the Orioles
batters merciless slaughter of “Kid”
Nichols, the hitherto invincible pitcher
of Boston.
And when the final summary came
showing that Baltimore had drubbed
Boston 19 to 10, the big delegation of
Baltimore fans fairly whooped and
yelled worse thana band of dervishes.
The small contingent of those who
wished Boston to win stole away into
the gathering shades of night, and deep
sorrow.abede with them. Alas; and to
see Collins. Lowe, Long, Tenny. Duffy,
Hamilton, Str hie, Nichols and Bergen
prostrate on the ash heaps beneath the
awful deluge of the Jennings-Reitz’
Doyle (tel combination was woe, wee.
But the.'scene shifts, and with the
dawn of another day The Tribune
went forth to herald to the world the
tidings that the cog of a mighty tele
graph system that covers the earth ag
a cobweb, had slipped.
Where jubilant, overflowing, uncon
trollable joy had reigned now came
sorrow’s funeral train bearing upon
it the remains of the erstwhile jovial
jolliflers.
They were dazed, routed, some in
credulous, but the grim fact stared
them in the face that their pets had
gone down before the cultured ball
tossers from Beantown. Tbeja Bos
ton’s faithful few had an inning and
the unmerciful guying the Baltimore
crowd got was terrible to see.
Mr. C. E. Woodruff, the genial
manager of the Western Union Tele
graph company office, was mortified
that the blunder had occurred. He
explains it as follows:
“When the Atlanta operator an
nounced the batteries, he said that
Baltimore’s scores would always come
first, then Boston. The first inning
came all right—Baltimore 2, Boston 1.
After that he simply gave the number
of the scores in each inning, without
reporting the club names. We thought
of course, as be had said Baltimore
first, Boston second all the soores
would come that way. But it was
simply turned around. Nobody can
regret the mistake more than I do.”
While the reports were coming even
the Baltimore crowd wondered why
the pitchers for the Orioles were
changed so frequently. And too, why
Nichols was not taken out of the box
and some one else substituted. KL
bedanz, Lewis and Stivetts were on
the bench and they could not do worse
and might be able to stem the tide
somewhat.
While it is generally believed that
Boston now has the penant ci
ched. it is not a deal certainty yet.
They must play Brooklyn three games,
and the Bridegrooms will play fierce
ly to win. in order to keep sixth place.
Washington goes to Baltimore for
four games, and iu the senators pres
ent form its no “dead easy’’ thing
that Baltimore will or can make it
four straight.
And it all goes to prove that if you
want the news accurately told, fresh
crisp and sparkling you must read
the Rome Daily Tribune.
“My boy came home from school
one day with his hand badly lacerat
ed and bleeding and suffering great
pain,” writes Mr. E J. Schall, with
Meyer Bros.’ Drug Co., St. Louis, Mo.
‘‘l dressed the wound and applied
Chamberlain’s Pain Balm freely. All
pain ceased, and in a remarkably
short time it healed without leaving a
scar. For wounds, sprains, swellings
and rheumatism I know of no medi
cine or prescription equal to it. I con
sider it a household necessity.” The 25
