The wonder of those who go to the Har.
nett House, in Savannah, is that so excel
lent a table and such comfortable rooms
can be offered to the public at such mini
mum rates. Without exaggeration, the
table of the Harnett is as good as that OF
the Screven House, and the rates just one
half as large. Courteous treatment makes
up the sum its attractions. The public

Is a very good thing, land where real merit
is advertised success is assured, but in
our days every little shebang with no adj
vantages to back it, advertise, and if you
believe everything you read you will GER
taiCly get left. Here is case IN point:
If you read all the advertisements of the
Savannah clothing stores, you would
think that they must be almost giving the
goods away, but if you try every one OF
them you will find that the Famous New

goods and lower prices than all others.

weavers could receive back % per cent
the same concession as was made to the
spinners--and that If the other mills gave
back 10 per cent. they would also. The
treasurer explained that the fines were ne

not pay fortnightly, but would every four
weeks instead OF monthly. There was
considerable discussion after the report
