CHATi’ANOoaA, L ‘ /. ... —The Trade*-
•hian’s reports of the industrial condi
tions in all parte of the southern states
for the week ending Nor. 25, shew that#
there is not so much activity us was no*?
ted last week. A falling off in priori
for steel and iron products, is noted, and
! the continued depression in tho cotton
market prevents largo sales ty growers,
who are ; till holding a large part of the
crop. Manufacturers of textile stock
.up whenever they can buy the quality
of cotton desired, and show by their
willingness to purchase that they arm
believers in a good year's business: and

There -are froqnent reports of tlio op

active operations are of local rrigiu.
fco-utlieru lumber operatives are repurt*
ing improveinent in besiticos. Tlie ev
press luuullers are doing well, with fini
prices, and the yellow pine handlers nrA
well satisfied with the results of their
reduced outputs, which are more nearly
in accordance with the wants of buyers
than were the large shipments before
sent out. 11011 furnaces are iu full
operation. The southern iron output is
now as largo ns ever known, and the ac
cumulations me small and temporary
only. The past six months have done
nun'll for the iron men, and tl'.ey am en
couraged to bolievo that a good fsoason
is ■ before them. (General business is
mom quiet. Merchants continue to
buy carefully, and do not carry largo
stocks. The southern farmers and
planters are i:i more prosperous condi
tion than has l>een known for years, as
a mr.r.lt of economy ami liard work.

not fat
Cod-liver oil is not simply
fat. There is more to it
than that. Otherwise
cream would answer as well.
Because some medicine or
food makes you fat is no
reason why it is as good as
cod-liver oil. This oil has a
number of most peculiar
and valuable agents united
with it; Neither these
agents nor the oil alone will
answer. The two must be
united as they arc found
only in the pure cod-liver
oil.
Scott*s Emulsion of Cod
liver Oil, witli Ivypoplios
phites, contains the whole
oil. The hypophosphites
are tonics to the nervous
system. Its use is when
there is a tendency to con
sumption, loss of flesh,
cough or cold and in the
wasting diseases of early
life. ,
