FAITHFUL. ANDCAPABLE.
In the last issue of the Southern
Woman was an excellent resume
of the splendid work of the pres
ident of the Georgia division of the
United Daughters of the Confed
eracy, Mrs. James A. Rounsaville.
She has done much to build up the
Georgia division and keep it at the
highest standard. She is an en
thusiastic, devoted and hard work
er. Mrs. Rounsaville has most
ably and acceptably represented
the division in the convention of
the United Daughters of the Con
federacy. While she has done
much good work, the crowning
glory oi her tw'O fine administra
tions will be the Winnie Davis
Memorial Dormitary, at the State
Normal School, in Athens, which
she suggested and for which she
has labored so untiringly.
TJIK WHITE HOUSE INCIDENT
One eveniug last week President
Roosevelt invited a negro to dine
with him at the white house and
the invitation was accepted. It
was a senseless blunder. We put
it thus mildly because we do not
believe there was anything vicious
in the president’s intention or that
any affront was meant to any of
the people oyer whom he presides.
That the negro was Booker Wash
ington alters the aspect of things
very little if any.
The incident has caused a wave
of indignation all all over the south,
where the effects are sure to be felt,
the press and the people speaking
out in no uncertain tones.
The northern press seems to treat
the matter as a trifling incident,
not even worthy of notice. There
is little acrimony in their retorts
at southern expression, but there is
a stiff assumption that seems to
class the act as the exercising of a
personal prerogative held by any
man as a matter of course.
That Booker Washington did
not refuse the president’s invitation
is rather a surprise to people of this
section, who were beginning to ac
cord him credit for a level head,
and he is believed to have let a
splendid opportunity escape him.
Other negroes, in prominent po
sitions, eyen, have refused to accept
such invitations, recognizing the
color line in social affairs.
The trouble seems to be with
many northerners that they do not
and will not understand the situa
tion in the south. Such acts as
the president’s encourage negroes
to insinuate themselves into posi :
tious they can never assume. The
Hue is drawn firmly and irrevoca
bly in the south and no kind of
effort can ever change it. The
white man is the social superior of
the negro, and the people of the
south will maintain this distinct
ion at all hazards.
We have believed fora long time
that what would be the most effect-
EMULSION
OF COD-LIVER OIL WITH
HYPOPHOSPHITES
should always be kept in
the house for the fol
lowing reasons:
FIRST- Because, if any member
of the family has a hard cold, it
will cure it.
SECOND --7 Because, if the chil
dren are, and sickly, it will
make strcfeg and well.
THlßDS ßecause, if the father or
mother is losing flesh and becom
ing thin and emaciated, it will builo
them up ar.d give them flesh and
strength.
FOURTH - Because it is Ihr
staridard remedy in ail throat a:u
lung affections.
No household should be without i:
It can be taken in summer as wei
as in winter.

It is one thing to advertise and quite an
other thing to do what you advertise.
To advertise to sell a horse for SSO that
is worth SIOO would in most instances cause
one to think there was something wrong
with the horse-
To advertise goods at 10c a yard that are
worth 15c a yard, in most cases, are like the
horse, there is something wrong with the
goods.
Now this store has lots of goods, as many
as any store in Cartersville, and they are
suited exactly to this trade, and good goods
too, bought in the very best markets and
bought for cash.
Suppose you look around over the town
and then come here and compare, and if we
can’t sell you as cheap goods, quality con
sidered, as you can buy, why don't buy. It
won't cost you a cent and very little trouble,
and we believe will save you money.
You run no risk, because, ii the goods we
sell you are not just what we represent
them to be, you bring them back and get
your money back.

ual mode of adjusting things be- J
tween the negroes and the whites |
would be an equal distribution of
the black population between the
states. Here in the south the ne
gro is understood and he is given
friendly aid in the furthering of
his every legitimate aim, and the
white man is the negro s true
friend, and if left to itself the south
will work out the negro problem by
methods mutual and rational. The
northerner who knows not the sit
uation looks through strained optics
and through mock philanthropy
thinks he can adjust things
from a distance. When the
matter is brought home to them
they have shown they are less tol
erant that the southern white.
The northern people ought to
inform themselves on the situation
here or cease to meddle with the
matter.
IMPORTANT BILL.
Hon. M. L. Johnson, of this
county, will introduce in the legis
lature two bills that will be recog
nized as greatly needed measures.
One of tlipse will be a bill making it
an offense in law to playwith cards,
dice, or balls on the Sabbath day.
This law is to prevent the desecra
tion of the Sabbath by any kind of
gaming and to reach gamblers
whom the law has been unable to
reach.
The other bill is for the making
of assault with intent to rape pun
ishable by death with power by
juries to recommend to mercy.
HIS TIME IS SHORT-
Will Jackson Will Hang Friday
Week.
Will Jackson, the negro who for
an assault on Mrs. Smith will hang
on Friday, November ist, seems to
realize his fate. There were six
ministers of his color with him
Monday. He maintains an even
demeanor, being as cheerful as pos
sible under the circumstances,
Sheriff Griffin went out yester
day morning and located the site
for the gallows, which will be on
the Land Company’s ground,about
sixty yards northeast of the gun
club’s pigeon trap.
The law makes hangings private
now and some kind of an enclosure
will be erected around the place.
Doctors, ministers and special
[persons intended to be present will
be given permits.

Are walked by the billiard player, as he
moves around the table. That is the
only exercise many a arty man gets. It
is this lack of exercise in the shut-in-life
of the city, com
bined with irregu
lar eating and in
digestible dishes
which tend to make
the city man the
victim of "stomach
trouble.”
When there is
undue fullness af
ter eating, with
belching, sour ris
ings and other dis
tressing symptoms,
a prompt use of Dr.
Pierce’s Golden

will effect a speedy
cure. In the most
extreme cases of
disease of the stom
ach and other or
gans of digestion
and nutrition, the
persistent use of
the " Discovery "
result in a com

of every hundred.
