SUMTER SHIRT MANuFAcTURING CO.
Began Business tuesday and Has Bright
Outlook for Success.

The special order department of the
Sumter Shirt Mfg Co. opened Tuesday
and the factory is ready for BUSINESS
The factory will make astandard quail
ity of shirts for working men and will
sell the output to jobbers. The special
order department will make shirts to
order Of any material that the Gus
toner may select and in any style.
The work will be done by experienced
workmen and every article will be
guaranteed perfect insofar as work
manship, fit and finish are concerned.
The factory occupies the second floor
of the Pierson building on Main Street,
adjoining the Cout House square, and
is well equipped with all necessary
machinery and appliances for doing
first class work in the promptest man
ner.
The factory begins business with
only eight or ten hands, but the enter
prise viii be pushed by energetic and
progressive men who will endeavor to
make and put on the market the best
shirts to be purchased anywhere at
prices that will be Just little cheaper
than competitors and in this way
build up trade of large proportions
that will necessitate the regular en-
ployment of a1large force of work
men. If hard work, progressiveness
and knowledge Of the business will
bring success the Sumter Shirt Mfg.
Co., should prosper from today onward
and with the support OF the local
trade at the start when the enterprise
stands most in need of patronage, while
the outside trade is being built up,
this newest of the city's enterprises
will succeed.
The several manufacturing enterprises
that have been most successful and
that have done the most for Sumter
started on as modest scale as the
Shirt Mfg. Co., and we have seen
them grow in magnitude and in capital
until today they are pointed to with
pride by all citizens. Small and numer-
Gus and diversified manufacturing en-
terprises do more for place than one
or two big factories and are more to
be desired, for they, each and every one,
contain the germ of great industries
and with time and good management
they grow into large prosperous con-
Germs. Sumter, more than any other
place in this State, has departed from
the beaten path and has number
Of manufacturing establishments that
are growing and prospering, and that
do not have to meet the active com
petition of many other concerns IN the
same line Of business located in the
same territory, as do the cotton mills.
The Shirt Factory is an addition to
the citv's industrial life and welcomed
by all public spirited and progressive
citizens.

That typical southerners seldom
have gout in their lower extremities
is explained thus by Victor Smith in
the New York Press: The moment one
sits down he looks about for some OBJ
ject upon which to elevate his feet,
usually resting them on chair or
window sill, if indoors, OF the balus-
trade if on the porch or piazza. Now,
the location of gout being simply a
question of specific gravity, it does
not descend to the feet because of this
habitual elevation. IF it should get
there it would be obliged to climb.
Englishmen keep their feet plastered
right down on the ground or floor at
all times, as if afraid Of letting some
thing get away from them They
have gout in their feet in consequence.

He referred to his rescue of Captain De-

way here, when be heard of the capture of
Aouinaldo. Referring to that, he said =
"Although | believe the war practically
over, for some time to come we will have

ment. A thorough policing of the infested
districts is the o2ly remedy"
During short stay at Nagasaki, Japan,
General Hare saw no signs of the reported
preparation for war against Russia. He
states that The japanese are an extremely
patriotic PEOPLE, and in their was matters
are very secretive as to their movements.
Movements might be going on, but, like
their batteries they would be masked so
that outsiders would learn nothing.
