THE NORTH GEORGIA CITIZEN, DALTON. GA,

|the feminine observer.'!
^iimiuiiuuiiiuumiiiiiiniuiimiiim,;
A woman can forgive a great
deal in a man who admires her.
No matter how plain or unpre
possessing a man may he he is a
hero to some woman.
A inan always dotes on a girl
who has a knack of knowing what
he does mean when he says
things he doesn’t mean.
The girl with the greatest num
ber of rings deems the pose of
hand oh hip the most correct atti
tude for all occasions.
Growing years bring a sort of
forgetfulness to all, and especially
we parents when our girls reach
young womanhood. We exer
cise a sort of monitorship over
them in our mistaken interests for
them which we would not have
brooked at their age. They have
their likes and dislikes, loves,
idiosyncrasies and dispositions
patterned after the simili
tude of ourselves, either heighten
ed or lowered by the father in pro
portion to his spirit. We can no
more destroy these inclinations
than the cirrus to trace in a warm
summer sky. Too often is this
spirit in our daughters subdued to
her detriment. She is almost sure
to form an attachment for the man
persona non grata to her parents,
but we should remember that
when the average girl reaches the
age of twenty or more her love af
fair is but the question of water
seeking its own level. She finds
a congenial and responsive soul to
her own—they have their tastes,
desires and characteristics in com
mon, hence the mutual attach
ment is made that only death can
dissever. A dutiful daughter—
sometimes I hate the word duti
ful—will submit to the parent’s
wish and break off such attach
ment, but in doing so she breaks
her own pure heart and thus en
ters into the vale of old maiden
hood, the most despised state of
all—a state hated by nature, ab-
hored by society and in contra
distinction to the determination of
God Almighty when He created
Adam and Eve. When Floy has
reached this stage by your doings,
mothers, why twit her with it ? Is
it not better that she marry the
man of her choice and dine on a
crust with happiness than mariy
the man of your choice and live in
a palace with misery and children
begotten of concupiscence—a sin
but little removed from the sin of
shame by a civil instrument pur
chased for a dollar and a half at
the Ordinary’s office? A scarlet
thread should be hung from the
threshhold of all such homes.
What were your feelings, mother,
when your husband first made
known to you his love ? Did your
parents object? Did you run
away and marry him? Was your
match a happy one? Why not
then place yourself in Floy s place
and remember the Divine injunc
tion, “do unto others as you would
be done by?” Don’t let household
cares, the dream of brilliant
matches, your own selfishness and
other little personalities form a
barrier—an insurmountable obsta
cle—to looking after Floy’s happi
ness in the common sense way.

Fof OVer Fifty Years
Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing
Syrup has been used by millions
of mothers for their children while
teething. If disturbed at night
and broken of your rest by a sick
child suffering and crying with
pain of Cutting Teeth send at once
and get a bottle of “ Mrs. Wins
low’s Soothing Syrup ” for Chil
dren Teething. It will relieve
the poor little sufferer immediately.
Depend, upon it, mothers, there is
no mistake about it. It cures
Diarrhoea, regulates the Stomach
and Bowels, cures Wind Colic,
softens the Gums, reduces Infla-
mation, and gives tone and energy
to the whole system. “ Mrs.
Winslow’s Soothing Syrup” for
Children Teething is pleasant to
the taste and is the prescription of
one of the oldest and best female
physicians and nurses in the United
States. Price 25 cents a bottle.
Sold by all druggists throughout
the world. Be sure and ask for
« Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing
Syrup.” 6-17-lyr.
Five Springs Items.
Will Dupree is up from Atlanta
visiting friends and relatives.
There will probably be a mar
riage here September 25th.
Bob Maynard has gone to Texas.
Mr. Ed Gilbert is a regular at
tendant on the meetings in pro
gress down this way.
HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four hours;
a sediment or settling indicates an un
healthy condition of the kidneys. When
urine stains linen it is positive evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfils every wish in relieving pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef
fects following use of liquor, wineor
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urinate.
The mild and extraordinary effect of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. * It stands
the highest for its wonderful cures of
the most distressing cases. If you need
a medicine you should have the best.
Sold by druggists, price fifty cents and
one dollar. You may have a sample
bottle and pamphlet both sent free by
mail. Mention The Citizen and send
your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bmg-
hampton, N. Y. The proprietors of this
paper guarantee the genuineness of this
offer.

Hoard will Meet.
The board of Deacons and Eld
ers of the Presbyterian church will
meet this evening with Mr. G. W.
Hamilton.
Grinding Tennessee Wheat.
W. H. Prater is grinding wheat
out at his country mill for custom
that - comes by wagon from Mis
sionary Ridge in Tennessee.
Wheat in Abundance.
It is estimated that the mills of
Dalton and in this county will
buy and grind not less than 150,-
000 bushels of wheat this season.
Bagging and Ties.
The Citizen reporter took a
peep into the warehouse of Bar
rett, Denton & Lynn this week
and found enough ties and bag
ging to cover ten thousand bales
of cotton. It is a big lot.
New Firm In Town.
There is a new business firm in
the city. It is composed of Misses
Emily and Mary Carter, Ethel
Weatherly and McClain Trotter
Robertson. They have formed a
partnership and have opened a de
partment store in Mrs. Moore’s
carriage house. They modestly
claim to make only one hundred
per cent on candy, canteloupes,
etc. They have been liberally
patronized so far in their new ven
ture. The little ones seem to en
joy storekeeping.
Mrs. David Orr Dead.
It is with much regret that the
Citizen announces the death of
Mrs. David Orr, of Ringgold,
which sad event occurred at her
home last Sunday. Mr. David
Orr is a brother of Capt. G. W.
Orr of this city and the sympathy
of the Dalton people is with the
entire family. Mrs. Orr was a
woman of excellent virtue and her
death will be a great loss to the
community in which she lived.
At the Banker’s Convention.
Georgia is all right and so is
Dalton. Col. F. T. Hardwick, who
has just returned from the Na
tional Convention at Detroit, had
the honor of naming the president
of the association for the next
year. Upon the calling of the
roll of States Mr. Hardwick res
ponded for Georgia and placed in
nomination James H. Hendricks
of the National Union Bank of
New York. The nomination
caught the crowd and he was
unanimously elected. The Geor
gia delegation was given a special
banquet while there and Mr.
Hardwick reports it one of the
pleasantest occasions of his life.
He also says that Georgia is way
up to the front in the banking
business. ,
Another Sad Occurrence.
One of the saddest deaths in the
memory of Dalton people was that
of Mrs. Callie Keith Fincher,
which occurred Thursday after
noon at her home in the eastern
part of the city. Mrs. Fincher
was the wife of ex-Chief of Police
Fincher and had lived in Dalton
for a number of years. She was
one of the purest young Christian
women in the town and there is
no one who khew her but will
mourn her untimely death. She
was a sister of Sam Keith and a
cousin of George Keith of this
city, besides having many other
relatives in Murray county. The
funeral services occurred at Pine
Grove Friday morning, Dr. S. A.
Goodwyu officiating.
Judge Booker Interviewed.
The Citizen reporter met
Judge W. H. Brooker of San An
tonio, one of the Texas Commis
sioners to the Tennessee Centen
nial on the streets, and asked his
impressions of the great exposi
tion. He said: “ The Tennessee
exposition is the greatest the
South has ever had, or will have
for a long time to come. Chatta
nooga, Hamilton county and Knox
ville, Tenn., have grand exhibits
of the regal wealth of East Ten
nessee. Georgia has a captivating
exhibit of her vast resources. So
has Alabama. One cannot realize
what a State contains till it is
lined up on exhibition. The
grounds are the most superbly ar
ranged of any exposition in Amer
ica, showing the growth and yield
of all the agricultural and floral
wealth of the South.
“Truly it is a great exposition.
As a Canadian admitted on the
grOvnds, it equaled any if not
surpassing those in London. These
expositions are great educators of
the country.
WUl Go to Spring Place.
Mr. and Mrs. Luke Quillian
will move to Spring Place and it
is said will take charge of the
Temple House. Mrs. Temple will
move to Tennessee.
Never Under the Sun.
The government may be run
without bills, men may live with
out being named Bill, the feather
ed tribe might possibly exist with
out bills, and there is a possibility
of collecting what is due you with
out bills, but the idea of the pesky
mosquito living and acting with
out a bill is too absurdly absurd to
merit any consideration whatever.
Terry-Gregory.
One of the week’s happy events
was the marriage of Mr. Major
Terry to Miss Georgia Gregory of
Murray. The ceremony was per
formed in North Dalton by Rev
M. M. Walraven. Both parties
are well and favorably known and
congratulations are undoubtedly
in order.
An Interesting Curiosity.
Mr. Floyd F. Farrer sent The
Citizen quite a curiosity this
week. It was a piece of card
board made from dog fennel and
it is the purest of fibre and
smoothest of grain of any we have
ever seen. It was made at the
old Farrar plant in Chattanooga,
which is now a paper mill doing a
big business. Dog fennel brings
$2.50 per ton and from it a grade
of boards is made wbicb is pre
ferred by the book-binder to any
thing else. Dalton ought to have
a mill. Why not?
When a man is troubled with sick-
headaches all the world seems to have its
hard pedal down; the day gets to be
thirty-six hours long and life becomes
unendurable. Let such a man go to his
druggist and ask for Ramon’s Tonic
Liver Pills. They cost but 25 cents, and
if anything in the world of medicine will
make a healthy man of him, this is the
remedy to do it. They are entirely harm
less and cannot fail to he of benefit.
