ficed his health
and wrecked his body, and through the
merits of a medicine is picked up alive
and restored to health has had an almost
equally wonderful experience. There are
thousands of men, who have for years over
worked themselves to the neglect of their
health, and then when utterly wrecked
in body and shattered in nerve have
been picked up and restored to health by
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery.
It is a marvelous remedy that corrects
all disorders of the digestion, invigorates
the liver, and fills the blood with the life
giving elements that build new flesh and
muscle. It is the great blood-maker and
flesh-builder. It cures 98 per cent, of all
cases of consumption and is a specific for
diseases due to disorders of the digestion
or imperfect nutrition. Druggists sell it.
"Myself and wife,” writes Mr. H. G. Adams,
of Turners Station, Henry Co., Ky., “have taken
five bottles of your * Golden Medical Discovery ■
and ‘ Favorite Prescription.’ The medicines are
curing both of us. We can’t say too much for
them or for you. My wife persuaded me to quit
the doctor here and try one Dottie of your ’ Gold
en Medical Discovery.’ I did so, and I thank God
for it. I have recommended it highly to many of
my neighbors; I told them that if it did not do
them one dollar’s worth of good that I would pay
for it.
“I will give you a little statement of my own
case. I was enervated, could hardly get up in
the morning, never got a whole night's sleep, was
short of breath, had a tight feeling in the stom
ach, and was restless. I would throw up my
food, and had numerous other ailments which I
have not time to write about now. I now feel
better and look better than ever before in
my life.”
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets are the sur

They never gripe. One little “ Pellet ”is a
gentle laxative, and two a mild cathartic.
Substitutes are sometimes dangerous, and

UNIQUE DOUB'.E WEDDING
Strange and Una-iial lCeiation<*liips Resaic

Columbus, Ind., Dec. 29. A phe

Debusk is the father of Mrs. Bevars.
A queer and unusual relationship has
resulted. Bevars’ own sister is hii
mother-in-law, and his father-in-law is
also his brother-in-law. Debusk’s
daughter becomes nis sister-in-law.
Mrs. Debusk is the stepmother and sis

being her father’s sister, is consequently
an aunt to herself. Ueb sk, being his
daughter’s brother, must necessarily bo

her trial took place and she was sent t<>
an asylum. After her recovery she was

COTTON MILL CUT.
W at the Trouble With the New England
Mills is as Stated Major Hanson.
The cut in wages made by the New
England cotton mills is causing much
comment.
The mills in North Georgia are running
along prosperously, and making money.
The employees and manufacturers are
both satisfied.
The Constitution’s Macon correspond
ent asked Major Hanson concerning the
mill situation in New England as affected
by competition with southern mills, and
what, in his opinion, is the cause of the
eastern mill trouble, Major Hanson
replied:
* *1 have not followed closely the re
ports of New England cotton manu
facturers upon the conditions affect
ingthis interest south as compared
with New Enland. In a general way,
I know that they are giving serious
attention to our cheaper cotton by
reason of oar proximity to the cotton
fields, and to our cheaper fael and
labor. Ido not consider, however,
that cotton manufacturing is imprac
ticable In New England when it pays
a profit in the south. 1 am not as
familiar with prices of cotton piece
goods as I am with the prices of cot
ton yarns. The market reports indi
cate the lowest prices ever known for
Brown sheetings, the leading south
ern cotton goods, and for print cloths,
the barometer by which the markets
on eastern cottons are generally indi
cated. On coarse yarns there is some
margin on standard makes, but in
ferior or unknown goods are selling at
very low prices. The truth is, we are
doing a large volume of business on
▼eiy short profits, and while the south
has some advantages in cost, the busi
ness here is not profitable by any
means. It is a well known fact that
some of oar best equipped and man
aged southern mills have made but
little money during the past several
years, while some mills of this class
haye actually lost money.
“The distress in New England is due
to the absence of margins more than to
southern competition. If margins were
good in the south, they would be fair in
New England, because we du not enjoy
advantages over New England equal to
profits in the south. The trouble comes
from overproduction. • We have built
more cotton mills than are required by
the demand for cotton goods. This state
ment is justified by the difficulty every
one experiences who undertakes to sell
cotton mill stocks in the south or else
where. None of them will sell for value
as shown by books. Comparatively few
are at par or above while the value of
many is nominal and the same are unsal
able, except at heavy discounts.
“Improved methods during the past
twenty years have resulted in overproduc
tion upon a normal basis of production
and consumption. The remedy is dif
ficult to suggest. It may be found in
shorter hours of labor. There is enough
machinery in this country to make in
eight hours as many cotton goods as we
need in twenty-four hours. This is true,,
no doubt, of all the great manufacturing
countries, and of most or all other lines
as well as of cotton. The absence of
reasonable margins in the south, as well
as in New Eng and, is proof positive to
my mind that the evil of New England
complains would not be eradicated if all
of her mills were moved south.”
