.state Hoard of Health.
The experiences of Ihe last two years
have demonstrated the necessity for a
state board of health, or at least n state
health officer, to advise with local au
thorities In handling contagious and In
fectious diseases For the last two win
ters smallpox his prevailed largely in
many of the counties of the etale Al
wavs when a suspicious disease ha* made
It* appearance In a community, the gov
ernor has been called on to send an ex
pert to diagnose tho disease and aid local
physicians in controlling It ami prevent
ing Its spread. There being no slate
Imard of health nor state health officer
I have on three separate occasions called
on the surgeon general of the United
States Marine Hospital Service, who de
tailed an officer from his professional
force to aid me. These gentlemen all
did excellent service, hut there were time*
when |t was impossible to secure asstrt
ar.ee from this source, rendering It Im
possible for me to respond to the call*
of ordinaries and other local authorities
It Is. moreover, not in keeping with the
dignlsv of our state to call upon the
general government to do for ue that
which we ran do for ourselves.
I call the attention of the General As
sembly to the matter, hoping It may re
ceive at their hands that consideration
which the Importance of the subject de
mands.
Child l.nbnr and llarean of I-abor
Statistic*.
In my last message to the General As
sembly f called attention to the demand of
our wage-earner* throughout the state for
a bureau of labor statistics, and some
wholesome legislation on the subject of
child labor.
A bureau of s'otlstlrs could be estab
lished In connection with the Depar’nv-nt
of Agriculture and under the supervielon
of the commissioner. In which statistics,
valuable not only to our artisans and
wugr-enrners hut to the general public,
could be compiled and published at a com
paratively small cost Our fellow-cltixrns
who are Interested In such statistics are
entitled to this reasonable demand
The subject of child labor Is more diffi
cult to handle. A law or regulation
whlclf would fit one case might not fit
another. There are cases in which. In or
der to provide the means of support for
the family. If seems necessary for the
children In the family to work even at a
t. nder age. but there are. on the other
hand, ntanv fimlli.-* the heads of Which
live In Idleness, and sometimes in dissipa
tion. and rely on the labor of the children
for support While these evils cannot be
entirely eradicated front our labor sys
tem by legislation, laws may be enacted
to minimise them, and It is as much our
duty to make the effort as It Is to legislate
for the prevention of other crimes, for
both these evils sometimes rise to the
magnitude of crimes.
Conclaslns.
Many subjects other than those I have
mentioned will come up for your consider
ation. and it may become my duty to call
your special attention to some of thorn as
the session progresses. Thai you will con
sider all of them wisely and well and with
an eye single to the best Interest of all
the people of our state, I feel well assur

REWARD OF MERIT.
A *rw fat.rrli t ar. Hrrsrra Xatloual
I’opularlly la l.ra. Than Oar War.
Throughout a riat nation of eighty
million It Is a desperate struggle to secure
even a recognition for anew article to
sav nothing of achieving popular favor,
and yet within one year Btuart's Catarrh
Tablets, ihe new catarrh cure, ha* mei
with such success that today It can be
f ’uml In every drug store throughout the
I'nlted Slates and Canada
To be sure, a large amount of advertis
ing was necessary In the first Instance to
bring the remedy to the attention of the
public but every one familiar with the
subject know* that advertising alone
never made any article permanently suc
eessful It must have tn nddttlon absolute,
undeniable merit and this the new catarrh
cure certainly possesses In a marked de
gree
Physicians, who formerly depended upon
Inhalers, sprays .and local washes or oint
ments now use Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
because, am one of the most promlnen
stated, these tablets contain tn pleassnv
convenient form all the really •flldent
catarrh remedies, such as red gum. Gua
yaeol. Ruralyptol, and Sangulnaria
They contain no cocaine nor opiate, and
are given to little children with entire
safety and benefit.
Dr J J. Reltlger, of Covington. Ky
says: I suffered from catarrh In mv hea t
and throat every fall, with stoppage of
the nose and Irritation tn the throat af
fecting my voice and often extending to
the st anach. causing catarrh of the atom
ach. I bought a fifty cents package of
Mtuart's Catarrh Tablets at my druggist's,
carried them In my pocket and used them
faithfully, and the way In which they
'-feared my head and rhroal was certain
ly remarkable I had no catarrh last win
ter and spring and consider myself en
tirely free from any catarrhal trouble
Mrs Jerome Ellison, of Wheeling, W
Va . wrtlee: I suffered from catarrh near
ly my whole life and last winter my two
children alao suffered from catarrhal cold.-
and sons throat so much they were out
of school a Urge portion of the wlnt-r
My brother who was cured of catarrhal
deafness by using fftuart's Catarrh Tab
lets urged me to Iry them so much that
I did so and am truly thankful for what
they have don* for myself and my chll
oren. I alway* keep a box of Ihe tablets
In the housA and at the first ainwaran- *
cf a cold or sore throat w. nln It in the
bud and catarrh la no longer a house

Full slxed packages of Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets arc sold for fifty cents ot all drug

Griffin, Oa . Oct. 24 —The Bpalttlng Cot
t*n Mills to-day suspend'd operations for
this week only, to commence again on
next Monday with their caic|ty d
to nearly double that of the original mill
The work on the enlargement of the mill
lias been going on for several weeks, hut
the mill wjis too busy on orders to stop
’•ntil It was positively necessary and only
closed n>w to get the large foo horse jkw
-* r compound engine and Immense boilers
in |H>sttlon nnd connect the machinery.
Eight months ogo this mill started with
S.OO spindle* and wan ('on*ld*r*d a good-
Mtserl mill to build In a town that already
boasted of two of the largest mills in the
South with a third being erected nearly
the same slxs.
Orders from the tt<irt c.->mmeived to
pour In and at no time has the* product
lieen sufficient to mipply the demand The
< onsequence is that 4 *© new spindle* have
been added The mill manair**nv n hav
ing foreseen that enlargement would have
to be mgde at some future *lay. they hud
provided the n**o<?#wry building room for
the addition when the mill was construct
'd. consequently they had a place for ttw*
4.00) additional sptndiea that have Just

Newspaper Advertising.
From the Indianapolis HentlneJ.
The man who advertises comes out In
the hnad 'lay light -with each Issue of
Ihe laser. Everybody knows why he Is
making money—that he Isn't afraid to tell
what lie ti'is to sell and what he sells 11
for—and they go to him with the confi
dence Instilled by continued publicity, for
no one could advertise lo sell gold dollar*
for 50 cent* ami -ki It right along says an
exchange, because either the dollar* would
be counterfeit or the men would burst
U| In business
Aral did you ever notice that the silver
tlier has bright, tidy alore’ That he U
a public spirited citizen? That he and hi*
family enjoy themselves socially?
Thai’s the ruason that advertising Is
not mysterious
It mokes a man of a man. It makes
him a power In th* community
Once In a while some men who adver
tise don't succeed II is ihelr fault, not
advertising's fault
One of those same men might get a bolt
of seasonable cloth, and shove tt hack on
a shelf until the edges were faded, and
the goads mu*ty and dusty, and It wotiH
be valueless
Hun your advertising as you do the rest
of your business. It takes common senes
to do either.
Do not buy up the elde • of hams, ond
cover them with white and black paint;
do not buy little tin signs to tack around;
do not disfigure farmers' fences; do Dot
go Into fake schemes.
Use the newspaper*
