Dear Sir—At the suggestion of a friend
I was advised to use Be-ru-na for catarrh,
and after using one bottle I began to
feel better in every way. It helped me
in many respects. I was troubled with
colds, coughs, sore throat, etc., but as
soon as I had taken your medicine I
began to improve and soon got well. I
take pleasure in recommending your
great remedy to all who are afflicted
with catarrh.—M. H. McCord.,
The spring presents a much more
favorablo opportunity for the perma
nent cure of chronic catarrh, especially
old, stubborn, cases. Now is the time to
begin treatment. Insist uppn having

BUILDCOTTON MILL
Paul D. Baugh Interested in a New
Concern to Locate at Cedar
town, Georgia.
Paul I). Baugh, of Philadelphia, son
of Daniel Baugh,has organized a com
pany, all tlie stock of which has been
taken,to build at Cedartown, Ga, the
Josephine Knitting and Spinning
Mills, with a capacity of about 400
dozen a day, and will equip to make
their own yarn. Buildings will be
started in the next thirty dajs.
The Cedartown Company was organ
ized in January, 1890, by Charles
Adamson, formerly of Philadelphia.
In 1892 Daniel Baugh.of Philadelphia,
was made PresidentThomas Adam
son First Vice President; Charles
Adamson, Second Vice President and
General Manager; and .1. Wright
Adamson, Secretary and Treasurer.
The same otlicers were re-etected each
succeeding year. The Company, orig
inally a land company alone,soon after
its organization determined to work
on lines dili'ering Irom those usually
adopted by land companies by consti
tuting itself into a Promotion and In
vestment Company. By developing
industries, it planned to convert an
agricultural section into a manufactur
ing district. Among the industries
established there are the Cedartown
Cotton Manufacturing Company,or
ganized in 1890. In the following
year the Land Company organized the
Southern Extension Cotton Mill and
leased it to Cedartown Cotton Manu
facturing Company. This mill lias
7,000spindles. In 1899outside parties
built a mill called the Paragon. The
building was prectcd to hold 12,500
spindles and equipped with 5,000
spindles. It was later purchased by
the Cotton Mill Company. Other mills
have built, and to-day the town of
Cedartown is one of the thriving and
hustling places in Georgia.

The engagement of Miss Helen
Zimmerman, of Cincinnati, and the

Cedartown people are interested in
this announcement.from the fact that
the prospective bride is the daughter
of Mr. Eugene Zimmerman, the popu

Mr. Zimmerman is widely known as

The South is beyond question the
section of the country in which the
largest ratio of development and pro
gress is to he looked for during the
next quarter ef a century. Senti
mental considerations have heretofore
had much to do with deterring capital
from embarking in enterprises located
in the Southern States. It has been
no uncommon thing in the past to hear
men of capital and enterprise in the
North decline to consider meritorious
undertakings merely because they
were located south of Mason and
Dixon’s line, and to openly and un-
blushingly give that as a reason and
the only reason for rejection. But this
feeling is a thing of the past, partly
because the stirring events of the last
two years have practically wiped out
sectional lines, leaving only the im
practical “mossback” to find fault with
the degrees of latitude, but chiefly be
cause the stern logic of facts and of
values and of natural conditions has
bro.ught conviction of error to even the
most unwilling minds.
In times of normal prosperity it is
hard to controvert the potency of a
combination which embraces iron and
coal and limestone in juxtaposition;
which includes cheap and abundan?
and tractable labor, which is fortified
by a temperate and equable climate;
which adds to all these the abundant
production of the textile products and
of all the fruits and cereals of the
earth; which possesses water-power to
drive the mills and factories of n
mighty nation, and which has easy and
economical lines of cominunication to
more than a score of seaboard points
for foreign and eoastwise transporta
tion.
As a matter of fact, this mighty
combination is no longer being contro
verted, for its force is irresistible.
Theories and prejudice have given
place to enforced conviction, and, bet
ter still, to an enormous and wide
spread investment of capital—capital
going from all points of the North,
from the pockets of hitherto pro
nounced skepties, of men who firmly,
and perhaps honestly, believed that
“nothing good could come out of (or
exist in) Nazareth,” capital goingmto
cotton mills, iron mines and furnaces,
coal properties and coking plants,
woodworking establishments, cement
works, fertilizer works, great tracts of
virgin forest timber, into railroads
and a score of other industries collat
eral to these.
So pronounced and sure is the march
of progress in the South today that
whoever possesses a property of iron or
coal, a tract of accessible timber land,
a cotton factory or a railroad, may
well feel complacent as to his future
condition. For whatever periods of
depression may be experienced by the
country at large during the next
twenty-five years, (hey will bear more
lightly upon the South, with its diver
sified resources and rich endowments
of nature, than upon any other part of
the country, and, on the other hand,
whatever prosperous periods may come
the South will reap relatively the
greatest share.
Let- this be a prediction that the cen
sus of 1910 will show for the Southern
States a ratio of increased prosperity
as compared with that of 1900 greater
by at least 50 per cent, than any other
section of the country.—United States

NEGRO RAPIST TRIED
IN COBB SUPERIOR COURT LAST
FRIDAY.
Jury Oat Only Seven Minnies.
Negro to Hang Sept. 1st.
Cobb county had an unwelcome ex
perience last week, and nothing bnt the
firmness of Judge Gober and a number
of level headed citizens prevented
well-deserved lynching.
The offense was the usual one, the
black rapist being terribly brutal in his
crime. His victim was Mrs. Geo. Inzer,
the wife of a good farmer near Marietta,
who was walking on the highway from
her home to that of a neighbor.
The negro—Sam Robinson, alias
Sam Bixby—made his escape but was
arrested on suspicion and carried to At
lanta. Judge Gober called a special
session of court at Marietta to try the
case, and the black brnte was 1-roaglit
back from Atlanta nnder a strong mili
tary guard.
The negro confessed his crime, be
sides being positiyely identified by Mrs.
Inzer. The jury brought in a verdict
in seven minutes, and Jndge Gober
sentenced him to be hung on Sept. 1st,
the earliest possible date under the law.
Such firm and expeditions work as
this by the courts, and as in the case
which came nnder the jurisdiction of
Jndge Janes here, will have more to do
than anything else to pnt a stop to
lynchi ngs for each heinous crimes.

“I,” said the gentleman who had

the second gentleman, who had meas
ured business wits with the first gentle
man, “like having good backing.”

TOMLINSON AND FRIENDS.
Bankston Affair Sensational Parade
Deemed Needless.
Capt. Gus Tomlinson, warden at the
Sugar Hill convict camp, and friends
were quite warm over the stories in
print last week of the Bankston affair.
Capt. Tomlinson is not in the least
worried over any possible affect snch
stories might have in effecting any rc
snlt before the courts, but the light in
which the tales might put him before
those who don’t know him is the part
of the thing that chafed. He waits
with confidence the issue of a case
which amounts to practically nothin:
and to meet the least possible annoy
ance he has had the cose transferred to
the city conrt, where there will he an
earlier disposal.
As soon as the stories came oat Capt.
Tomlinson received a perfect shower
of letters from his friends in Cedar
town and Polk county, each breathing
the same sentiment, “We know there,
is nothing wrong about yonr acts and
have every confidence in the justice of
yonr side in the light of investigation,’
then expressing surprise at the sensa
tional parade in Atlanta papers.
Gus Tomlinson, as everybody knows
him in Polk, where he was raised, is
man of very strictest honor and integ
rity, and a man truer to right, truth
and principle, is not to be fonnd.
There is not an iota of sham or decep
tion in his composition, and his acts are
as open as a book. He was for several
years postmaster of Cedartoiyi nnder
Democratic rule.
The whipping of Bankston was the
performing of a mere duty he had no
means of escaping, as these duties are
regularly prescribed, and one wonld
hardly stop to question the man’s sick
ness or otherwise after the regular phy
sician had pronounced him not sick.
Capt. Tomlinson, it is well known,has
inclined to the humane in his whippings
at the camp.—Cartersville Conrant.
A Dinner of Male and Axle Grease.
The following Is an Incident of the
siege of Ladysmith narrated by Sir
William MacCormac: “An officer re
lated an Incident which will serve to
illustrate the lengths to which things
had gone as regards food. A shell fell
into The mule lines one afternoon, kill
ing one mule. In spite of other shells
following the first one In rapid succes
sion, so as to make occupation of the
spot very dangerous, the men In the
vicinity made a rush at the mule like
so many ravenous creatures, cutting off
the flesh with tlielr clasp knives in
great chunks. They then in safer quar
ters built fires, toasted the meat and
swallowed it at once. To make them
more palatable the men fried their bis
cuits in the axle grease provided for
the carts. Tlie want of fatty foods
and vegetables was greatly felt In
spite of all their hardships nobody ever
thought of giving in. The general in
quired as to how many horses in the
camp could carry their riders six miles,
in view of a sortie being made, and the
answer came back that only 12 horses
in the whole camp could do it”—Lon

An invalid called on a physician for
advice. The doctor wrote out a pre
scription, charging the patient 2 guin
eas for it Some time afterward they
met in the street
“Well,” said the doctor, “you are
looking 100 per cent better! That medi
cine, though n little expensive, was
just what you needed.”
“Doctor,” replied the patient “after
I had paid you the 2 guineas for the
prescription, I couldn’t afford to have
It made up, so I didn’t take a single
dose!”—London Answers.

For this story of the relation of poli
tics and medicine the Philadelphia
Medical Journal vouches: A physician
was summoned In haste to attend the
child of a family that lived in two
rooms in the heart of a large Ameri
can city—not New York. The child had
been seized suddenly and seriously
and just at election time. The mother
was in despair, and when the, doubtful
prognosis was given she broke into
wailing and violent self condemnation
for some horrible sin of the family to
which she said tlie child’s illness was
due—a direct punishment for their
crime. Site would go and curse the mag
istrate for it all, her husband should
resign from “the force” and such evil
ways should be renounced forever.
Curious to know how the magistrate
could he held responsible for the child’s
illness, the doctor finally secured the
confession that the crime of the poor,
conscience stricken woman consisted
in allowing the names of many fraudu
lent voters to be registered as residing
in her house, in swearing to the lie,
etc. Tlie magistrate also had demand
ed this of all the neighbors in return
for indescribable political favors.
The child recovered, and the magis
trate paid the physician’s bill.

The Two Romeos.
.Toe Jefferson told this story: “David
Garrick and Spranger Barry were both
playing Romeo at the same time in
London. Barry play’ed it at Drury
Lane on the Monday and Garrick play
ed it the next night at Covent Garden,
and the town was divided as to wh4ch
was the greater Romeo—in fact, there
was quite a great excitement about it,
and they acted it upon such different
lines and with such marvelously differ
ent conceptions that the people argued
the case as to which Shapespeare in
tended. Tlie fact is that Shakespeare
intended It to be acted well, and if
one man’s temperament suited it best
to act In that way it would do for an
other temperament the other way.
“So they asked Mrs. Slddons, who
was the Juliet alternately with the
same Romeo, which she considered bet
ter of the two, and she said: ‘It is diffi
cult to say; they are both wonderfully
great, but .1 will tell you bow they
impress me in the balcony scene. In
the balcony scene Garrick seems so
eager, so intense and so full of fire and
spirit that I*m afraid he’ll jump up in
the balcony to me, and Barry is so lov
able and fascinating that I’m afraid I
shall have to jump down from the bal
cony to him/ ”

A REPUBLICAN SENATOR
Tarns His Back on McKinley for
Bryan.
Senator Wellington, of Maryland, is
a republican who sees calamity for
onr nation’s fntnre in the re-election of
President McKinley, and like another
prominent republican—Hon. Webster
Davis—will work and vote for Bryan.
Senator Wellington says:
“Bryan is absolutely right on the
one great issue involved in the cam
paign, and, with the money question at
rest for four years, he is a bigger, a
better and a safer man than McKinley.
Even if the money question were not
settled, Bryan is a man of too mnch
sense to undertake to tamper with the
currency. Bryan is certain to be our
next President, and I shall he glad to
see him elected.
“McKinley is totally unfit for the
office of President, because he is so
weak and vacillating that he can’t stick
to an opinion over night. If ho conld
know his own mind and be consistent
for twenty-fonr hours at a time he
might do, hot snch a thing is impos
sible with him, and for that reason he
is unfit to be President.”
