STANDARD VOLUME 14 CEDARTOWN,GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 24, 1900 I KNOW PERUNA IS THE BEST CATARRH CURE ON EARTH.” LETTER FROM THE PHILIPPINES 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 from a hot Royal Baking Powder biscuit whets the appetite.

It renders the biscuit, bread and cake more digestible and nutritious. Royal Baking Pow der makes hot breads wholesome. Food raised with Royal will not distress persons of delicate or enfeebled digestion, though eateiv warm and fresh. Mosquito Net SUMMER DRY GOODS^ AT Lanham & Sons ' Rough Rider Sergeant Duck Taylor.

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.” “DeWitt’s Little Early Risers at, the first pillsleyer used.”— D.J.Moore, Millbrook, Ala.
