DIVERSIFIED INDUSTRIES.
The Columbia State referring to
-the factory development of North
and South Carolina, says:
"North Carolina has this year
chartered twenty-six cotton mills
with a capitalization of #.1,517,000.
We have not at hand the aggregate
of South Carolina’s cotton mill
charters during the same period
but think that the mills
chartered is about as large as in
the capacity nearly twice as great
iu North Carolina. Our sister
state, however, is excelling South
Carolina in the diversification of
its industries. During the year it
.has chartered ten knitting mills
with an aggregate of $217,000 cap
ital. two being in 50,000 each but
the majority of 10,000. North
Carolina has also chartered this
year twenty-two woodworking
companies, with an] aggregate of
$336,500 capiTal, making, as their
titles indicate, mantels, tables,
shutters, bobbins, chairs, sash and
blinds, barrels, crates and baskets
—far surpassing South Carolina in
the varied use of its timber re
sources. The cotton mills aver
aged $135,200 capital each, an ex
ceptionally high average for Nc r h
Carolina; the knitting mills $21,700
each and the woodworking factor
ies $15,300 each. A woodworking
plant is within the reach of the
smallest town in South Carolina;
am! it will pay here as well as
across the border.’’
It is strange that woodworking
establishments are not increasing
m Georgia as in the Old North
'State. Georgia produces as much
tiinlier as the latter state and of
Tcqual variety. Our output of lum
he r is enormous, and vet, somehow
*eir other, its conversion into mer
chantable articles is not of nearly
the proportions it should be. The
Carolina cotton mill men vary their
products; they have gone far be
yond die point of 1 uuuing on low
prudes. And in the minds of the
Carolinans a factory is a factory no
matter what may be the product.
We should,like to see more of this
spirit manifested in Georgia, for
the strength and progress of the
state in the future must depend
npon the degrees of its. manufac
turing development. There are
many valuable lessons for us to
learn from the experiences of the
Carolinians.
The Southern Industrial Asso
ciation, lately assembled at New
Orleans, says the Philadelphia
Record, took an important step be
fore adjourning in perfecting a per
manent organization with a view
to pushing forward the industrial
and educational advancement of
■the southern states. It is recog
nized that the affluent resources of
£be south in cotton, coal, iron and
lumber—which a e now mainly
sold as raw material—could be
profitably advanced in value before

Pine Log, Dec. 11, 1900.
Editors Courant American:
I read in your paper a piece
about the pauper’s home. I am
sorry those ladies gave us of Pine
Log or Bartow, such a poor recom
mendation. As for the home the
inmates are better taken care of
than a great many of the poor in
Cartersville. They have corn and
as much as they want, meat,
coffee, three times a day, sugar,
rice and syrup. They have cows
for milk and biPter, and those who
are not too indolent, have chickens
and eggs. They have plenty of
clothes as good as mine and mine
are good as any farmer’s wife
should be. Some of them have
good feather beds and good mat
tresses and sheets, blankets and
bed quilts. They do not do any
thing only as they please. They
have a cook and an assistant to
help her. Those who are not able
to wash or to scour get that done
by those who are able. They have
washing done every week and
scouring every month, not over
two months anyway. There are
some that go there to get their liv
ing free.
Mr. Elbert Upshaw is my sister’s
son, and I know what I have said
is true, for I am there pretty often
and I am there at meal time, and
have seen the meals given out.
I do not doubt those ladies’ word,
for they were not there long
enough to know what was and
what was not. It is not very far
from Cartersville to the home; near
enough to help if they choose.

In selecting - my stock I first consider quality. We
are obliged to have inexpensive goods, but we do not
buy anything the low price of which is its only recom
mendation.
We avoid buying goods which have an appearance
of value they do not possess, viz., articles which are
made to only sell. Our aim is to study the permanent
interest of the customer.

says: “Last August I caught a summer
cold which settled in the kidneys and
caused me serious inconvenience. Noth
ing I did seemed to help me and the
doctor advised a change of climate. As
that was out of the question for me, I
tried Peruna as a last resort, and I found
it was a God-send to me.”
The kidneys are the natural gateway
out of which much of the waste tissue
finds its escape. This waste matter be
comes a very poisonous substance if al
lowed to accumulate. The renal artery
brings the blood charged with impuri
ties to the kidneys.

If the kidneys are healthy they will
excrete the poison from the blood. The
renal veins return the purified blood
from the kidneys to the general cir
culation.
Peruna stimulates the kidneys to ex-
Crete from the blood the accumulatin'
poison, and thus prevents the convrj
sions which are sure to follow if the
poisons are allowed to remain. It gives
great vigor to the heart’s action and
digestive system, both of which are apt
to fail rapidly in this disease.
Kidney diseases are more liable in
summer than in winter. Send for a

Dr. Hartman. This book will be sent
