Efforts will be made to break the
tobacco trust. It is hoped the
movers will not get chewed up or
the movement go up in the smoke.
The whole country has experi
enced a cold snap, the thermome
ter going to 40 degrees below zero
in the coldest places. The coal
trusts are the only ones who enjoy
ed it.
Mrs. Jessie Benton Fremont,
widow of the late Gen. John C.
Fremont, known as the ‘‘Path
finder,” died at her home in Fos
Angeles, Cal., at the age of 78,
Sunday morning.
Maintaining the Monroe doc
trine is all right but picking up or
dabbling with foreign territory at
the same time we are calling out
for ‘‘hands off” on American soil
don't make our attitude consistent.
TRY THESIS.
A Chicago minister suggests the
following ten resolutions for his
church members that members of
churches anywhere might well
consider:
1. Pray fervently in secret at
least once every day.
2. Read at least one chapter in
the Bible every day.
3. Attend religious services
regularly, not spasmodically.
4. Give systematically at least
a tenth —give joyfully and gener
ously.
5. Take at least one religious
paper and read it, not skim it.
6. Buy and master at least one
good book every month.
7. Think and speak well of
others never otherwise.
8. Desire earnestly to be the
means of saving some unsaved
person.
9. Forsake every habit that
stands between the soul and its
larger growth in Christ —liquor
drinking, tobacco, gaming, exces
sive theater-going, gossiping, whin
ing, etc.
10. Cultivate a cheerful and
contented disposition. Emerson,
in one of his essays, says, “A good
intention clothes itself with sudden
power,” In turning over your
new leaf this year be sure that no
evil intention shall rob you of your
natural heritage.
Consumption
Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con
sumption. ‘‘Eat plenty of
pork,” was the advice to the
consumptive £0 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott’s Emulsion is the mod
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
Scott’s Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
Scott’s Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos
phites in Scott’s Emulsion
that outs new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.
A sample will be
sent free upon request.

THE NEW YEAR.
From out the debris of turkey
and fruit cake, tin horn and fire
cracker, entertainments and gifts
and other things that have been
greeting ear, stomach and the
senses, let us rescue our thoughts
for a concentration on life’s real
aspect, as this day is the first of the
year when, people make new reso
lutions. If we muss around over
the old pages representing the past
we will find much that will dis
courage, for in the balance the vio
lations seem quite as numerous as
the pledges, But that needn’t
deter and cause anew affront to
duty in a blind indifference to the
situation and an apathetic willing
ness to let things go as they will.
As the newspaper is a public
mouthpiece. The News and Cour
ant would like to urge some public
resolves to the attainment of ends
that make for the common weal.
M r e ought to try to attain har
mony in public affairs, as by
working together a people can ac
complish what could never be
brought about where caviling, dis
sensions and jealousies abide. The
croaker should be brushed aside
and the active man with designs
for good be encouraged to the full.
Cartersville has just passed
through a wonderful year in her
history and has reached a vantage
ground from which it would be a
pity to recede and it would be a re
flection on the will that would fail
to grasp the opportunities before
us to further advance. What
means in its full something like
$200,000 in improvements have
been made in the city in Ihe last
twelve months, the spirit of im
provement has been life, and if
urged to its full bent will accom
plish a continual growth that will
put us up higher than we have
ever been in the list of important
towns and swell our population to
a figure that will evoke both sur
prise and admiration.
There are some things that need
being got in favorable shape, and
one of these is the light question.
Our people have been groping in
darkness for a long time and it is
hopad that the day will soon dawn
when vve can have our streets
lighted in a satisfactory inamur.
We do not know just now the full
status of the light question but the
pending injunction suit against the
city has unsettled things where ra
tional proceedings have bee ; - , m
iugly difficult. The question ought
to be considered as well with a cnin
cautious as an anxious eye; but let
us hope that we will ere long have
lights.
The manufacturing spirit ought
to have every possible encourage
ment, and we believe if the right
kind of effort were made by our
citizens we could get plants here
with pay rolls that would make us
grow as we have long deserved
to.
Everything that could should be
done to invite manufactures.
The sanitary condition of the
city must engage the thoughtful.
The premonitory warnings of possi
ble health dangers have abounded
in the few chance cases of fever in
the city the year past. With the
finest natural drainage of most any
city in Georgia, Cartersville has
long enjoyeo immunity from fever
or other summer maladies, but the
institution of water works has made
additional drainage necessary and
a little neglect on this line will
show up unfavorably for the
health reputation of the city. As
fast as necessities arise in this line
they should be met to refrain as
long as possible from the coming
certain need of sewerage. Co-oper
ation of the citizens with the
authorities oif a rational plan will
save us much hurtful effect.
The moral status of the town is
par excellence, and every effort
should be made to keep it so.
There was less drunkenness this
Christmas than ever known in the
community. In many ways that
could be named are evidences seen
of cleanness of conduct and the
incentive for right doing is encour
aged in every quarter. The healthy
condition of religious sentiment
and intellectual growth is upheld
and maintained through the
churches and schools, and these
will have anew and powerful
auxiliary in the improved public
library the ladies have so nobly
striven for and instituted and so
soon to be located in the creditable
new building.
Cartersville strive for a
better freight rate. Her fast grow
ing business deserves the lowest and
efforts on this line might be fruit
ful to a gratifying extent.
Not only in the town but in the
country conditions are improved.
The rural aeliveries and telephones
are proving great conveniences and
making farm life constantly more
pleasing and independent. The
schools of the country aie better
than ever and prosperity seems no
dream.
The year 1903 ought to be a
good year for Cartersville and Bar
tow county. Let us all resolve
and strive to make it such.
CLEVELAND ON MONROE DOC
TRINE.
Giover Cleveland is accredited
with the following statement re
cently made:
“At the present time the Monroe
doctrine is endangered from two
opposite directions —on one hand
by those who do not appreciate the
vital importance of its proper inter
pretation as a principle of our
national policy, and on the other
hand by those who would wilfully
extend its scope.
“It must be protected from those
who would make a foolish insist
ence upon its application to matters
nut within its purview’, and at the
same time care must be taken that
it is not endangered by a failure to
observe the effect of any action,
though seemingly remote, which
might result in an infraction of its
provisions.”
A Missouri man struck a wo
man iti the face and excused him
self by saying he thought it was
his wife.
There is inorr catarrh in this section
of the country than alt other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable,
tor a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local temedies, and by constantly
lading to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science lias
ptoven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti
tutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh (Jure,
manufactured by F. J Cheney cfc Cos.,
Toledo,Ohio, is the only constitutional
cu re on the market. It is taken inter
nally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful It acts directly on the blood

(lot the Host for Your Money.
Did your grocer ever tell you when
you ordered “Clifton” flour that he
had “something just as good?” Do
you know why he tells you this? It
is because he buys some inferior flour
for less money and is trying to work
this off on you and get a few cents
more profit on it. This is a perfectly
legitimate thing for the grocer to do,
but you ought to see that you get the
best value for your money. Audi to
do this insist upon his sending you
“Clifton,” the finest patent flour. J

motherhood without health, and without
health for the mother there can be no

It is of vital importance for women to
know that the health of mother and Child
is in general entirely within woman’s
control. The thousands of women who
have used Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre

have testified that it made them healthy
and happy in t days of waiting, made
the baby’s a ant practically painless,
and gave them health to give their chil
