COTTON FACTORY PICNIC.
THE EMPLOYEES OP THE'CE
DARTOWN COTTON CO.
The Delicious
Fragrance
Held Their Annual Picnic ac Ake 1
Grove Saturday.
The annual.May picnic of the cotton
factory operatives was a big affair
this year.
Both factories of the Cedartown
Cotton Company are now filled to their
utmost capacity, the expert machinists
of the Howard & Bullough Company
having just finished the work of in
stalling the fine machines in Mill No.2,
and the increase in the capacity of the
mills lias, of course, largely increased
the number of operatives. The pic
nic last year was a mammoth affair,
but that of this year included a much
larger force of mill hands.
Tliis year the operatives themselves
managed the picnic, the Cedartown
Cotton Company generously donating
$100 toward their entertainment.
Badges were provided for. the opera
tives and their specially invited guests,
and only those with badges were al
lowed to participate in the picnic din
ner and its accompanying festivities,
instead of entertainingthelargecrowd
of outsiders as heretofore.
The beautiful grove of Mr. M. V. B.
Ake'was again the scene of this en
joyable gathering, and it would be
hard to find a better place.
The Cedartown Cotton Company is
one of Cedartown’s best managed and
most prosperous iustitutions.
The company lias been fortunate in
its selection of Mr. J. H. Hines as
General Manager,and he has under him
three clever and capable Superintend
ents in Messrs.E.Koellar, ,T.II.Quinlan
and Clias. Goodroe.
All the employees of the mill are
clever people, and they and their

taste of such
a biscuit-
sweet, creamy,
delicate and

fastidious.
R oyal Baking
Powder improves
the flavor and
adds to the healthful
ness of all risen flour-

biscuit, bread and cake
more digestible and
nutritious.

Sergeant Buck Taylor, one of the
famous Rough Riders, is a personal
friend of Governor Roosevelt, of New

Roosevelt on his great stumping tour

was promoted through gallantry in the
field during the late war.
The Sergeant has the following to say
of Pe-ru=na: u I think there is no better
medicine on earth than Pe-ru-na, for
catarrh. It has cured me. It would
take a volume to tell you all the good it
has done me. Pe-ru-na is the best ca

have tried nearly all of them.

seemed reluctant about going' down;
they wanted to see the angry sea, as a
great m *ny of us boys did. It was not so
rough and abont 4 30 it was as black as
night almost, and suddenly came a gust
of wind that sent the old ship port side

'A Banker’s Generosity.
In a chapter of reminiscences of Von
Bunsen and his friends, in The Cen
tury, the Hon. John Bigelow tells this
anecdote of Humboldt:
One day he was dining with Men
delssohn. the hanker, and. an unusual
thing for him. was very silent. His
host, remarking it, observed to Hum
boldt that he was sure he must be ill.
“No,” said Humboldt, “but I am in
great trouble. Only ten minutes before
leaving my apartment to come here I
received from my landlord a uote in
forming me that he had sold-the house
in which I reside and that I must
move. The very thought drives me to
despair. I really cannot bear to move
again.”
Mendelssohn gradually led Humboldt
into conversation, during which he
found time to write a note and receive
an answer to H. He then took Hum
boldt aside, aud said: “By this note 1
learn that I am now the owner of the
house in which you reside. The condi
tion. however, upon which I have be
come its possessor is that you continue
to occupy your apartment in It as long
aa you live.”
