WHY IS ITT
A Merchant A,k, Some Pertinent Queatlun,
to Pe< p'e Trading Oat of Town.
Editoh of The Tkibune;
Can you tell us merchants why so many
go away to make their purchases? Are
uot on.' dry goods men up" to-date?
Don’t they sell as cheap here as else
where ? Don’t they carry as nice goods?
Seems to me any one. even the most
fastidious, could be suited. Look at the
grand displays of pretty goods and tell
us why they have to go away to buy
their dresses, etc., for every welding
bill that rings in our midst.
I venture to say you can save on dry
goods at least 20 per cent. And is the
silverware any better if it is bought in
Atlanta or Nashville? They are obliged
to make a larger profit to pay expenses.
And so for engraving there is no finer
engraver in the south than here in Rome,
and thent, too, while there are no card en
gravers here you can give your order
t'o the stationers who can save ycu money
on invitations."' Rome of the prettiest
invitations have been ordered through
our loca. dealers with perfect satisfac
tion.
And, too, what is the matter with our
■cooks? Can’t they make beaten i biscuits
to satisfy the appetites of the Romans’
most aesthetic taste? If so why send
away for biscuits? All these things*
work harm to. our city and instead of
trying to help build up and sustain the
city. It seems as if every one wants to
get everything they can away from. Rome
except »heir living. They are content to
make that out of the poor old city and
its striving hard working merchants. I
hope to offend no one, only let them
know how matters stand and ask each
and all to Jive and let live among our
selves, treating each other as you would
be treated. A Merchant.
P. S.—The above reminds me of
I heard in Atlanta. A lady visitor to
that city said to one of the merchants
who formerly had lived in R >me that “she
was so sorry he moved aw«y,” and.be
replied “that he had to move to Atlan'a
in order to sell to the Romans what they
needed in his line.”
A few weeks ago the editor was taken
with a very severe cold that caused him
to be in a most miserable condition. It
was undoubtedly a bad case of la grippe
and recognizing it as dangerous he took
immediate steps to bring about a speedy
cure. From the advertisement of Cham
berlain’s. Cough Remedy and the many
good recommendations included therin,
we concluded to make a first trial of the
medicine. To say that it was satisfac
tory iA its results, is putting it very
mildly, indeed. It acted like magic
and tne result was a speedy and perma
nent cure. We have no hesitancy in
recommending this excellent Cough
Remedy to anyone afflicted with a cough
or cold in any form.—Tne Banner of

UNIQUE COLLECTION.
Conductor W. C. Smith, of the Southern—Has
Almanacs From 1804 to 1897.
Curip hunters and collectors are plenti
ful, bnt Mr. W. C. Smith, a popular
conductor on the Southern Railway, and
whose home is in this city, probably has
one of the most unique and unutual col
lections on record.
He has almanacs from 1864 up to the
present year 1897. There are only two
breaks in the series, and these Mr. Smith
is very anxious to obtain. He wants one
of 1865 and one of 1881. His father before
him began the collection, and he is keep
ing it up. He knows where he can
obtain a series beginning at 1845 and
up to 1864. With-all these he will prob
ably have the most valuable collection if
almanacs in the South. He will keep
them to the end of the century and have
all bound in book form. Most of the
almanacs are Griers.
The one dated 1864 is a Giier, and
was printed by M. Lynch in Atlanta. It
is marked “Price 50 cents,” and carried
no advertising as do those of the present
day. It was calculated by Prof. T. P.
NOT ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD.
A fact often overlooked, or not al
ways understood, is that women suffer
as muoh 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
cores. If you take a medicine you
should take the best. At druggists fifty
cents and one dollar. You may have a

Eugenie Blair and her company of
legitimate players comes to the opera
house for one night, Oct 20tb, and it
may be pleasing to note the produc
tion of the standard drama at that
time. The ability and judgment of
this accomplished star has placed
several of those plays of human ii
terest again before the public and in
a manner both acceptable and praise
worthy. Several of the older dramt s
that have been so hacked and cut
out of all semblance of recognition
are restored to their former power
and meaning; and in so doing Eugenie
Blair has won for herself the ap
proval of all of the admirers of the
legitimate drama: Miss Blair’s charm
ing ability has long been recognized
and she is now in the first . ranks of
American stars.
Her repertoire contains such plays
as “The Ironmaster,” “Camille,”
“Mercy Merrick” in “The New Mag
dalen,” “Galatea,’’ “Carmen, Jane
Eyre” and “East Lynne, ” in which
she made herself famous. It was her
first; offering as a star and its great
success suggested her appearance in
the other plays of her repertoire. In
all of the plays named Eugenie Blair
has been pre-eminently a favorite
and she lias been received everywhere
with the sincerest approval. Miss
Blair has the highest and best in
sticts of the actress, she is sweet and
womanly, as well as powerful and
convincing. She is absolutely of the
new scbool, being all the more es
fective through her perfect natural
ness and repression.
Eugenie Blair displays a taste for
costuming and she is considered one
.of the best dressed women on the
stage. All of the plays in her reper
toire demand rich and varied dress
ing and Miss Blair has in no way
over-looked anything as to fabric
and the blending of shade and color.
The supporting company has been
carefully chosen and is spoken of in a
commendable manner. For the
engagement here “Camille” will
be played.
Those who believe chronic diarrhcea
to be incurable should read what Mr. P
E. Grisham, of Gaars Mills, La., has to
say on the subject. Viz : *‘l have been a
sufferer from chronic diarrhoea ever
since the war and have tried all kinds of
medicines for it. At last I found a
remedy that affected a cure and that
was Chamberlain’s* Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. ” This medicine
can always be depended upon for colic,
