Tfiß courant-ffineiican, CIKTKHHIiW, :A. ‘ Freeman ft Willinham. at Cartersville, cSa., as second class mail matter- NOVEMBER p 5& r -•■=-'•• SPECIAL NOTICE. The subscription price to the Courant- American will hereafter be *1 50 a year. This is made necessary on account of (retting out the paper in its enlarged form and improvements hereafter to be made. The paper will be brighter and letter the coming year than ever before imd all should have it a visitor to their homes. ■ The Democratic party is a lively hantiing yet, but it seems to have the knack of getting on its best hump in the wrong years. What has become of the funny man of the press? There are some indications distinctly visible that lie has been supplanted by the superb and tiuent 1 r. Cartersville has crawled out of her swaddlings and donned her knee pants, and if the croaks don’t turn her over to the “gobberlins” she will before long be promenad ing in full length The system, inrich embrace 6,000,000 acres in South Florida, was recently pur chased through Col. I). 11. Elliott, by a large syndicate. This is said to he the largest land deal ever made in the South. In these tranquil times, when the public mind is no longer excited by politics or disturbed tty the consid eration of momentous issues, re freshing proves the information that is given out that Otto Hegner is soon to give the people of tint city of brotherly love an anima ted rendition of a Beethoven sonata, the brilliant and complica ted “Aurora” a polonaise and the familiar berceuse of Chopin. The Philladelpliia Times had an interesting cartoon in one of its editions the past week. It repre sents Chairman Quay as the lone fisherman and shows his November catch to he Pennsylvania, which is an old boot from which the water ruthes out through a great hole in the toe, and while he views it at the water’s surface with chagrin, a number of nice fish marked “lowa,” “New York,” “Ohio,” and so on, are slipping hack into the stream. It is rather too directly suggestive to he enjoyed by the republicans. Melancholy wails about the pos sibility of tight times at some period of the world’s history of the future seem to be a stereotyped source of satisfaction to some people. The cotton crop may be a little short and money not the most plentiful it ever was, yet it is very certain that all interests are fairly prosperous and the general outlook has no con spicuously dark features. After all, the situation is largely what we make it, despite many apparently formidable obstructive conditions. Georgia’s legislature did a splen did thing when it established the technological school, and no less worthy of applause was its action which creates the girls’ industrial school. Brains are not seeking so commonly as was once the case the so-called refined avocations but more the various channels of busi ness. The boys from these schools are going to make great successes in many cases, and by and by will be given seats in law making-bod ies that are now held by less prac tical statesmen. Girls, with the training they will get, will be less and pendent, in sore emergencies that o.ten confront women, and our country will not be the loser by the new phase of things, either. MOKE MANUFACTURES. Agriculture is a great thing—in fact, the foundation stone of all the great things achieved in material development, but the fact has by this time been well demonstrated that the town or city which would forge ahead of others in growth, no matter how specially well favored in rich agricultural surroundings, it must not depend alone upon agriculture as its source of growth. Manufactures supplement the aid the farm gives in building up a town or city, and enriches the land owner —the two strengthening each other a id together forming an auxiliary which shows its great power in the solid results visible in the way of progress. In 1880 the value of manufactures in the two states of New York and New Jersey was $1,330,070,932, with 35,248,000 acres area, worth as much money as 494,387,200 area of the lands in twelve southern states. In that year, in these two states, one-fifth of the manufactures of the j country were located, and the south j had insignificantly few. Such cities in the south as An-; gusta, Knoxville, < 'olumbus, Chatta nooga and Birmingham owe the surprising growth they have at tained more largely to manufac tures than any other one thing. Let others profit by their example. Cartersville has made a start, in an humble way. The Courant- Ameriean hopes to see the day and that not at a far away period, when the whistles of her little plan, ing mills, her ice factory, ochre mills, etc., are answered by those of a furniture factory, a furnace, and a cotton factory. And then, indeed, she will go marching on. AN IMPORTANT ELECTION. It is a day less than three weeks’ time until the voters of this city are required to determine at the ballot box who are to manage the affairs of the city government for the en suing year, it is essential that Car tersville should eleCyt live and pro gressiva men and who are well known for the soundness of their business qualifications and honesty of purpose. At no period in the history of the town has it been so necessary to make good and wise selections and no council ever had more important work to do than the council will have in 1890. There are plenty of men in Car tersville who will make efficient councilman, and there are many win) have in the past served the city most faithfully and advanced the interest of our people whenever occasion offered. Out of these it would not be hard to select a hoard that would be most acceptable to nur every interest and at the same time push Cartersville to the front rank among the progressive towns of the south. The council next year will have more work to do than other coun cils because it will have more pub lic institutions to attend to and keep up. The public schools have just been started and they will need the fostering care of a board that will he in perfect sympathy with their advancement. The same may be said of water and gas and the lire department. The streets and sidewalks will come in for greater attention than ever before and it may he necessary, on account of the growth of the town and the ex igencies of the times, to open up new avenues. There is plenty of work in Cartersville for a real live board to do. Let our people give more atten tion to the matter. Let good men consent to the use of their names for these important positions. There are none too good to hold the offices of mayor and councilinen, and pa triotism and the desire to advance the public weal would suggest that we get the best to be had. The Deadly Cigarette. If there' is one habit to be con demned more than another, it is the supremely dangerous and abominable one of cigarette smok ing. Again and again we read of the mortal effects of this practice. Only last week, another victim was added to the alarmingly increasing development of the fatal results of this most pernicious habit. This miserable substitute for the cigar contains in its crude make up more possibilities of danger and disease than any other one thing now known of, unless it be absolute opium eating or smoking. The eirgarette contains nicotine from the tobacco, a poison from the paper used, opium, another poison, and poison germs from the quality of the tobacco, often the vilest re fuse; such as stray stumps of cigars collected for this purpose. Any opium in cigarettes? Out of fifty samples bought in open market, Prof. Ogden Doremus, of New York, an eminent chemist, found opium in forty-three of them. The user of cigarettes by bathing his lungs with the poisoned smoke, contami nates the blood and sends a poison ed and disease-laden current to brain and muscle, to heart and stomach, causing indigestion, heart trouble, loss of memory, and that lowering of intellectual and physi cal tone which, unchecked, tends to positive decadence of brain and body. Should you meet, as you pass along, a mackerel-eyed, pur poseless looking sort of party, that’s him, a prospective victim of the deadly cigarettes. Wm. S. C.

The worst feature about catarrh is its dangerous tendency ta consumption. Hood’s Ithrsaparilla cures catarrh bv purifying the blood.’ THE OLD-STYLE PEDDLER. lie is Numerous in This Vicinity and Drives ii Thriving Trade. . The old-style peddler going through the country with Ids pack of goods over his shoulders, is not now as obsolete as many would suoposc. In fact they are getting j quite numerous, and there is no \ telling how many of them are lay ing foundations for future millions in the counties of North Georgia, It is getting of frequent occurrence for these pedestrian merchants to get off the trains at Cartersville and begin their tramp through the country. Many of them are sup plied with goods iiy our own mer chants. Very few of them under take to sell goods in town on account of a tax that is almost prohibitory. This is done to protect merchants who pay tax to the city government and who are doing a legitimate business. It is said these peddlers do a thriving business. They buy their goods at cheap prices as they are of the shop-worn kind and of an cient styles, and consequently de rive great profits. The packs con tain a mixed medley of goods and are generally very large and heavy. It would seem to require unusual strength and perseverance to be long to the “profesh.” A young “Sheeny,” of only about thirteen or fourteen years of age, was hauled up a week or two ago by one of Cartersville’s “finest,” for doing business without a license, and his pack would have been burden enough for the back of any stout man. Perhaps the great increase in this business this fall is a good indica tion of the increased prosperity of this country, If the farmers were not in better financial condition than in former years, the business would not thrive so and there would he fewer of them. Or perhaps, some of the merchants adopt such means to get rid of old and unsalea ble goods. At any rate we are inclined to think the people would get more for their money and re ceive goods that would prove more satisfactory, by patronizing those who are engaged in carrying on a legitimate business. THE LONGEST WORD IN THE DIC TIONARY is incompetent to communicate the in expressible satisfaction and incompre hensible eon sequences resulting from a judicious administration of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, a preparation de signed especially for the speedy relief and permanent cure of all female weak nesses, nervousness, and diseases pecul iar to the female sex. The only remedy for woman’s peculiar Ills, sold by drug gists, under a positive guarantee, to give satisfaction. See guarantee on wrapper of bottle. This guarantee has been faithfully carried out for many years by tho proprietors. If you are costive, don’t wait until costiveness becomes constipation, but take Laxador at once, regularly and persistently, until you are cured. Do not poison your little ones with paregoric, laudanum, etc., but use Dr. Hull’s Baby Syrup, it contains nothing injurious to the infant system. PAINFUL BOILS. About throe years ago I was troubled with poison in my blood, very irritating and painful boils breaking out all over my body. For twoyears I suffered with them, trying all sorts of remedies, and doctor’s prescriptions without avail. Becoming disgusted with doctors and medicines I had used up to this time, I concluded to try S. S. S. and the result was far beyond my expectations. A few bottles left me in better health than I had been since childhood. 1 consider S. S. S. the only medicine that will thoroughly purify poisoned blood. T. K. Mayfield, Horse Cave, Ivv.

Bradley writes from Harri son, Ga., under date of September 22, INS<>. Swift’s Specific (S. S. S.) lias been freely used by my family with the best and happiest results.

B. Freeman. November It, ’fill. 3^ We are willing to bear personal testi mony to tlie efficacy and value of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which we have been ad vertising some years in our paper, hav ing used it lor blood impurities with great success. It is a preparation of standard merit, made of jierfectlv pure ingredients,and thoroughly effective in cleansing and purifying the system. For eruptions, boils, etc., it can be relied upon every time. Our own experience witli it has been most gratifying, and w e are glad to give it this endorsement. —Athol (Mass) Transcript, tl 2nd w dec The Dividing Line. To the Editors of tho Ccurant-American: Some time during last year, for some purpose, if any, the city coun cil saw fit to change the dividing line running north and south, which to some extent, created considera ble confusion in the ranks and yet puzzles citizens to locate the wards in which they reside. Now, was said change lawful or not? i-i the information asked for. A few con tend it is and many contend it is not lawful and should not nor can not stand. Some one in a position to give such information as can he relied upon, would, by answering the above, confer a favor on a Comk to Stay Citizen. A LOVELY COMPLEXION is something desired l>y every lady in tlie land. The easiest way to get that beautiful color to the skin is to first make tiie blood pure. The impurities must be removed by the administration of some remedial agent which contains the most thorough alterative properties combined with those ingredients which tend not only to remove impurities of the blood, but also build up and invigo rate the system. Such a remedy is Dr. Westmoreland’s Calisaya Tonic, which not only thoroughly cleanses the blood, but also invigorates the system and leaves tho patient in a thoroughly im proved and healthy condition. The price is within the reach of all. 50 cents and SI,OOO a bottle, and M. 14.I 4 . Word in your town sells it. TO PROSPECTIVE GAS CONSUMERS.

Several physicians predicted that Mr. Asa B. Rowley, druggists, of Chicago, would soon have consumption caused by an aggravated case of catarrh. Cus tomers finally induced him to try Clarke’s Extract of Flax(papilon)catarrh cure. He says: “The result was unpre cedented. 1 commenced to get well after the first application and am now after a few weeks, entirely cuiod." It will do tiie same for you. Price SI.OO.

Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven years she with stood its severe tests, but her vital or gans wore undermined and death seem ed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly and could not sleep. She bought of us a bottle of Dr. King’s New Discsverv for consumption and'was'so much relieved on taking first dose that she slept all night and with one bottle has been miraculously cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz.” Thus writes W. C. Hamrick <fc Cos., of Shelby, N. C. (let a free trial bottle at J. R. Wikle & Co.’s drug store. mch7-ly AN AWFUL SORE Li MB. Skin entirely gone. Flesh a mass of diseuse. Leg diminished one-tliird in size. Condition hopeless. Cured by the Cuticuru Remedies in two months. CURED BY CUTICURA. For three years I was almost crippled with an awful sore leg from my knee down to my ankle; the skin was entirely gone, and the flesh was one mass of dis ease. Some physicians pronounced it incurable. Itliad diminished about one third the size of the other, and I was in a hopeless condition. After trying all kinds of remedies and spending hun dreds of dollars, from which I got no relief whatever, I was persuaded to try your Cutiuura Remedies, and the re sult was as follows: After three days I noticed a decided change for (he better, and at tiro end of two months I was completely cured. My flesh was puri fied, and the bone (which had been ex posed for over a year) got sound. The flesh began to grow, and today and for nearly two years past, my leg‘is as well as ever it was, sound in every respect, and not a sign of the disease to be seen. S. tl. Ahern, Dubois, Dodge Cos., Ga. Skin Disease 17 Years. I have been troubled with a skin and scalp disease for seventeen years. Mv head at times was one running sore, and my body was covered with them as large as a half dollar. I tried a great many remedies without effect until I used the Cutieura Remedies, and am thankful to state that after two months of their use I am entirely cured. I feel it my duty to you and the public to state this case. L. R. McDowell, Jamesburg, N. J. Another Marvelous Cere.

Five doctors and many patent medicines have done her no good. Six bottles of B. B. B. cured her.” Miss S. Tomlinson, Atlanta, Ga., says: “For years I suffered with rheumatism, caused by kidney troubles and indiges tion; I was also feeble and nervous. B. B. B. relieved me at once, although sev eral other medicines lmd failed.” Rev. J. M. Richardson, Clarkson, Ark., writes: “My wife suffered twelve years with rheumatism and female com plaint. A lady member of my church had been cured by B. B. B. She per suaded my wife to try it, who now says there is nothing like B. B. 8., as it quickly gave her relief.” 5-l(S-ly A VALUABLE tonic.
