The weather clerk, seeking to
mend the error of his ways and as
though weeping for his past cruelty
to this poor parched section, now
tunes up and sets the heavens to
weeping on the slightest provoca
tion. After the rains come the cool
spells which act as a Tonic to our
drooping energies and immediately
everyone is bestirring themselves
to thoughts and plans for the com
ing winter. And what are vve in
our little world of Cartersville dis
cussing as this season’s forecast?
There are rumors that all this
activity is not to be confined to
business circles alone; that our
little city is waking up to the real
ization that she is becoming a
factor in the commercial world and
many are asking the question,
“why should we not glow in a
social way as well?” It is known
that we havehere.to an unusual de
gree for smaller towns, the requis
ites for such growth in culture,
refinement, talent all perhaps, ex
cept wealth, and after all do the
social affairs upon which the most
money is expended afford the most
pleasure? We think not.
All'of us are inclined to be socia
ble, and it needs but the frequent
gathering together to make us more
so.
First of all, just now women are
eyeing each other askance to see
the pretty new gowns and hats as
they make their appearance, dis
cussing the details of the modiste’s
creations or exchanging small talk
on the art of home dressmaking.
They are much interested too, in
dry goods and millinery openings
of our up-to-date establishments
which will follow in quick succes
sion this week. The writer has
plead before through this column
for the patronage ot home industry,
and now the people of Cartersville
have less excuse than ever to go
elsewhere for their purchases, and
we should certainly encourage
our progressive merchants.
Another topics of social interest
here to many is the horse show in
Atlanta next week, for quite a few
intend going down for the event.
We also have in prospect a Lyceum
course for the winter which will be
under the auspices of the Home
Mission Society of the Methodist
church. If the efforts of this body
are successful, and the citizens
should certainly encourage their
project, we will have six of the
best attractions the Southern Ly
ceum Bureau affords, and it is said
they are all good.
Then there is the Dixie Club
which is contemplating a move at
some future time into larger and
handsomer quarters after which we
hope to hear more from them for
a good club could add so much
pleasure to the social life of our
little city, especially in the way of
extending courtesies to strangers
within our gates.
The Club Women are active as us
ual in both the Cherokee and Musi
cal clubs. The latter is doing some
ambitious as will be seen by their
program for next Saturday at Miss
Ella Neel’s for which all the parti
cipants have studied selections
from grand opera. These meetings
from house to house prove very
pleasant little social occasions too.
The Erwin Street Club which dis
banded for the summer will shortly
resume its weekly meetings. This
club was a source of great pleasure
to all its members last season and
is sure to prove so again.
There are rumors of at least one
wedding anniversary celebration
so far, with perhaps more to follow.
As to visitors to gome, there is yet
no mention, but there is no doubt
but what they will come, for every
body loves to come to Carters
ville.
As to weddings, the blushing
brides-to-be sure are still standing
the thrusts of their suspecting
friends and Dame Rumor is busy,
but the pall of secrecy is over all.
It is well known, however, that the
marriage register for 1902,-1903
will not contain blank pages.
Upon this threshold we stand with
agreeable vista immediately before
us and even if the social life of our
little city seldom amounts to a
whirl, there is pleasure in almost
everything if we but seek it.
Mr. and Mrs. John Brown reach
ed home last week from their
bridal tour through the North
Carolina mountains. Mrs. Brown
has made friends of all who have
had the pleasure of meeting her
and she is sure to prove a charm
ing acquisition to the social life of
Cartersville.

GOOD LIVING
Quite often results in bad health, because
what is termed "good living" is usually
the gratification of the palate without
reference to the nutrition of the body.
When the good liver is a business man
tand rises from a
full meal to plunge
at once into work
requiring mental
effort the result is
almost sure to be
disastrous, because
digestion draws
upon the same
nervous forces
which are em
ployed in thought.
In time the stom
ach becomes dis
eased, the pro
cesses of digestion
and nutrition are
imperfectly per
formed and there
is a physical
breakdown.
Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical
Discovery cures
diseases of the
stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition. It
eliminates the effete poisonous matter
which originates in the system as a con
sequence of imperfect digestion. It gives
sound health to the whole body.
"I wish to say to the world that Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery has proved a great
blessing to me," writes Mrs. Ellen E. Bacon, of
Shutesbury, Franklin Cos., Mass. "Prior to
September, 1897, I had doctored for my stomach
trouble for several years, going through a course
of treatment without any real benefit, In
September, 1896, I had very sick spells and grew
worse; could eat but little. I commenced in
September, 1897, to take Dr. Pierce’s medicine,
and in a short time I could eat and work. I
have gained twenty pounds in two months, *

The following is of great interest
to the people of Cartersville inas
much as the groom has lived in
this city and has many friends
here. It is from the Constitution:
The marriage of Miss Contance
Reed, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Heber Reed, of Kalamazoo, Mich.,
and Mr. Joseph Emerson Brown,
son of Judge James Brown, of
Canton, Ga., took place yesterday
afternoon at 1:30 o’clock at the
Aragon hotel, Rev. Carey B. Wil
mer, of St. Luke’s church officiat
ing.
Although their engagement had
not been formally announced, it
was known among their friends
that the wedding would occur the
23d of October, but on yesterday
afternoon, when Mrs. Reed’s physi
cians gave up all hope of her re
covery from the illness with which
she has suffered for many months,
her consent was secured for the
immediate performance of the cere
mony, which took place at her
bedside.
Besides the bride’s father and
mother there were present at the
ceremony Mr. Walter Kelly, who
acted as best man; Mrs. Robert J.
Lowry, Mrs. Frank Weldon, Miss
Eliza Scoville and Dr. Hunter P.
Cooper.
The circumstances attending the
wedding are peculiarly sad, and the
young people have countless
friends to sympathize with them.
SCOTT’S
EMULSION
Scott’s Emulsion is the
means of life and of the en
joyment of life of thousands of
men, women and children.
To the men Scott’s Emul

cure of consumption and the
repairing of body losses from
any wasting disease.
For women Scott’s Emul
sion does this and more. It is
a most sustaining food and
tonic for the special trials that
women have to bear.
To children Scott’s Emul
sion gives food and strength
for growth of flesh and bone
and blood. For pale girls,
for thin and sickly boys ScfffTs
Emulsion is a great help.

[ Since her residence in Atlanta the
bride, as Miss Reed, has, by her
intellect, culture and lovable char
acter, endeared herself to all who
have been fortunate enough to
know her, she and her charming
mother having come to Atlanta for
the latter’s health several years
ago.
Mr. Reed is one of the wealthiest
and most prominent citizens of
Kal nnazoo, Mich , and has many
friends in Atlanta.
Mr. Brown is the youngest son
of Judge James Brown, one of
Georgia’s most honored citizens,
and is a nephew of the late dis
tinguished statesman, Senator
Joseph E. Brown, whose name he
bears. He has lived in Atlanta
since his boyhood, and is regarded
as one of the city’s most successful
business men. He is a member of
all the social clubs in the city, and
will make his permanent residence
here.
DELEGATES ELECTED-
P. M. B Young Camp Chooses Rep
resentatives to Columbus.
P. M. B. Young camp of con
federate veterans at its meeting last
Saturday ohose its representatives
to the state reunion at Columbus
October 28 and 29. They were as
follows: Delegates—J. J. Calhoun,
C. M. Jones, D. B. Freeman, A.
M. Foute, P. H. Larey, W. J.
Ingram; Alternates —F. M. Wil
lis, S. M. Roberts, J C. Waldrip,
J. M. Davidson, J. M. Arnoljd, F.
R. Calhoun.
Indications point to a good at
tendance from the camp here, as
the railroads are making low rates
and the people of Columbus are
making great preparations to en
tertain their guests.
The movement of the Daughters
of the Confederacy to build a monu
ment to Bartow’s confederate dead
was brought to the notice of the
camp and the following resolutions
offered by D. B. Freeman were
adopted unanimously;
Whereas, this Camp learns with
eminent pride and gratification of
the noble purpose of the Daughters
of the Confederacy to raise funds
for and erect a monument to Bar
tow county’s confederate dead and
thus perpetuate in stone the
memory of those heroes who went
out in the twenty-odd companies
which the county furnished to the
armies of the south, and furnish a
reminder to coming generations of
their sacrifices, endurance and
valor that otherwise might be lost
sight of in the whirl of events;
Resolved,
1. That we as a camp express
our hearty approval of this move
and pledge our aid in whatever
way we can.
2. That the commander appoint
a committee of five, who shall on
behalf of the camp confer with and
co-operate with a like committee
of the Daughters of the Confed
eracy, doing whatever in their
discretion may seem best to further
the move.
The commander appointed the
following committee: D. B. Free
man, J, J. Calhoun, A. M. Foute,
C. M. Jones and R. I. Battle.
Some stirring speeches were made
sanctioning and offering encour
agement to the move.
The camp adjourned to meet the
fourth Saturday in this month to
complete arrangements for the trip
to the state reunion.

What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects Inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
It, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
