He Wants llis Money.
Editor McDowell,of the Acworth
Post, wants his money. Here is
the yery speech he makes to his
subscribers: •‘‘We want to state to
our subscribers that the inonty
they owe to us must be paid. We
want and need every subscriber
who intends to pay, but wc don’t
’want the man’s name on our book
who has no intention of paying.
Some of our subscribers, through
carlessness, are several years be
hind and we urge them to come
forward and pay up. It is much
easier to pay up ouce a year. If
this is done tbe subscription price
is so small you scarcely feel it. So
come on and pay your subscription
now.”
After Small Pox.
The state board of health is
very much concerned about the
small pox situation in middle and
south Georgia, and finds itself han
dicapped by lack of ample legal
machinery.
The board wants the next legis
lature to give the board power to
take charge of the smallpox situa
tion in counties where the county
authorities refuse to act. and to
enforce thorough vaccination. The
board believe and physicians gen
erally believe that the only way to
combat smallpox is by thorough
and effective vaccination and that
can only be secured by compulsion.
Winter is the season of small
pox and we need not be sur
prised to see it appear in north
Georgia and Bartow county. The
public works of Bartow county,
the mines and especially the new
railway construction are constant
ly bringing in negro laborers from
other sections. In this way many
cases of smallpox may be imported
into this county. The authorities
should keep a sharp lookout for
the disease, and when it appears
deal with it vigorously and effect
ually.

' The friends of Mr. Henry G. Gran
ger will be interested to hear of his
1 marriage on Christines day to Senor
ita Maria Adelaide fervent, of Carta
gena. Colombia, South America. Af
ter a short trip to Bogota, the bride
' and groom will sail from Cartagena
for America, coming directly to Over
look. the home of Mr. and Mrs. A. ().
Granger.
Mr. Granger’s many friends here
are awaiting their arrival with great
pleasure. Mrs. Granger is a beauti
ful young woman, with the brilliant
coloring and lovely brown eyes of her
race.
Tins affair was full of romance, as
are most marriages in Spanish coun
tries. The customs of any country
other than our own are always inter
esting.
Spanish etiquette demands a quiet
cjurt.-hip. Beginning with admiring
glances towards the balcony of the
fair one and serenades beneath her
window, the culmination is reached
when mutual friends make the formal
application for the lady's hand. Not
until after the wedding ceremony
do the happy pair meet to talk freely
together as young people do here.
There are always other members of
the family present. This seems
strange to ns, but it is a question
whether there might not, with ad
vantage, be a greater care in chaper
oning our girls.
Mr. Itene Granger has gone on an
extended trip to obtain samples of
the coal and oil found in Colombia,
South America. He lias also occupied
some of his spare time at Cartagena
in writing an article upon Japan for
El Parvenir, the leading journal of
Cartagena. Rene's interest in the
Russo-Japanese war is greatly in
creased by the knowledge of Japan
gained during his visit to that coun
try in 1001.
Although celebrated with the high
est degree of simplicity, the marriage
service of Mr. Miles G. Dobbins and
Miss Marie Estelle Calhoun was
touched deeply with that sentiment
which makes so holy the marriage
vow. This wedding occurred at 5
o'clock Wednesday afternoon, at the
home of the bride’s father, Captain
J. J. Calhoun, in the presence of
only the immediate relatives, Misses
Leila Gilbert, of Calhoun, and Mary
Lu Wikle, who played the wedding
march. The light of many candles
cast a soft radiance over the mar
riage altar, which was arranged in
the hall. Suspended directly over
the bridal couple was a large wed
ding bell of white roses. White crash
covered the floor, and all the decora
tions here w ere white and green.
Promptly at 5 o’clock the first notes
of the w'edding march were sounded,
and Rev. W. A. Clevelani, the offi
ciating clergyman, entered from a
side door. The groom entered next
and stood at the altar, awaiting the
coming of the bride, immediately
preceding whom came Miss Belle
VanDevander, a niece of the bride
and a maid of honor. She w ore white
chiffon and carried red carnations.
The bride entered upon the arm of
her father, who gave her away dur
ing the reading of the beautiful
Episcopal marriage service.
After placing the ring with which
their troth was plighted and the
pronouncing of the benediction, this
couple w ere show ered with congrat
ulations. After this way was made
to the dining-room, in the center of
which was a beautiful table, where
the red carnations and bride’s candle
were made prominent. On this table
rested a large punch bowl, from
which delicious punch was served,
w ith red and w hite cakes. The bride’s
health was drunk, and all manner of
good wishes were expressed for Mr.
and Mrs. Dobbins.
The wedding robe, a white mousse
line over taffeta, entirely wrought of
exquisite hand work, and with which
a lovely veil was worn and bride's
roses carried, was exchanged for a
traveling suit of brown, with hat to
match.
Mr. and Mrs. Dobbins left at once
for Chattanooga and other jaunts,
and after their return will be at home
at Mrs. Mary 1). Freeman’s.
Mrs. Dobbins, the third daughter
j of Captain J. J. Calhoun, has a jirom
inent family connection, and as a
' young woman attractive in form and
feature, as well as winning in j>er
sonalitv, she is possessed of many
friends.
Mr. Dobbins is one of Cartersville's
best-known citizens, and he is a gen
tleman of most elegant bearing.
One of the most elaborately appoin
ted card parties of season was
that given last Friday afternoon by
Miss Bernice Tumlin to Mrs. Clarence
Simpson, of Thomasville, Ga. Miss
Tumlin’s home was beautiful on this
afternoon, the reception rooms being
lighted by many white tapers in sil
ver candelabra. The walls of the
parlor were finished in green and the
wood work and furniture were white
all of which formed a be lutiful back
ground for the setting of tall plants
j which was g'ven this room. Two
tables were placed in here and anoth
er in the dew, just back of it. This
latter room was hung with ornamen
tal draperies and red is the color tone
[ predominating. Here red crepe paper
; concealed the pots which were filled
with ferns and palms.
That Miss Tumlin is an artist,every
, body knows, but that she is so many
; different kinds of an artist, a great
many did not know until that after
noon. The walls of her home are
hung with her pen and ink, water
color and burnt wood sketches. The
cards and prizes were her hand
work, as was the dainty china upon
which the refreshment weie served.
The score cards were original heads
done in water color, all different.
These were treasures and each guest
declared her intention of framing
hers. The first prize was a large Gil
bert head copied by Miss Tumlin in
water colors and framed in gold.
This was won by Mrs. Annie 1). Har
ris, who presented it to the guest of
honor. The hostess then g ave Mrs.
Harris a burnt wood plaque bearing
two Gibson heads.
Instead of cutting the cards for the j
consolation prize a pretty idea was in-1
troduced. A bon-bon dish of stuffed
dates was passed with only one date
left “unstuffed," it naturally contain
ing just a seed. This Miss Sarah
Heyward chanced to select and there
by won a water scene, also framed in
gold. Mrs. H. T. Bradley scored the
game. Chicken salad capped xvith
whipped cream, beaten biscuit, I
olives and coffee were the refresh- j
merit course. The hostess wore a
frock of white silk.
Mis. Simpson was elaborately
gowned in a blue velvet suit add with
it she wore a white lace waist and a |
toque of gray fur and blue velvet. :
Assisting the hostess was her mother
Mrs. Lydia Tumi n, who wore black
cloth and lace, Miss Cornelia Fields,
whose becoming frock was of blue
mull with yoke and bertha of blue
ribbon and lace. The guests at the
party were; Misses Heyward, Marian
Smith, Octavia Aubrey, Ella Neel,
Laura Neel, Christine Lumpkin,
Mesdames F. \V. Norton, J, G,

Six years ago I had a severe attack of
Inflammatory Rheumatism. I was laid up
in bed for six months, and the doctors I
had did me no good. They changed med
icines every week and nothing they pre
scribed seemed to help me. Finally I be
pan the U9e of S. S. S. My knee and elbow
joints were swollen terribly, and at one
time my joints were so swollen and pain
ful that I could not close them when
opened. I was so bad that I could not
move knee or foot. I was getting discour
aged, you may be jure, when I began S. S.
S., but a* I saw it was helping me I contin

S. S. S. purified my blood and cured me
of this severe evae of Rheumatisnr after
everything else had failed. I have rec
