An odd sort of sympathy strike, and
one with which the public will SYM
pathize, was inaugurated at Wash
ington, Ind. a day or two ago. Three
hundred coal miners notified their en-
ployers that they would not go to
work until they had assurances that
the mine mules would receive better
treatment. They explained that fire.
quently the mules were sent to work
without having been fed, watered or
curried; that this had occurred three
or four times within a week, and that
it must be stopped at once. And yet
the mules are not members of the

RAILROADS EXTEND NO HELPING
HAND.

while Southern towns and cities are
offering inducements to INDUSTRIES
donating lands, erecting buildings and
RENTING taxes whenever possible-in
order to secure the erection of manu-
featuring plants within their limits.
there are firms and corporations de-
pendent largely upon the people of
such towns and cities, which are an
parently careless with respect to the
best interests of these people. In
other words, these firms and corpora
tons purchase in other markets ma
terials and supplies which might be
bought at home.
case in point is some railroad
printing that is now being distributed
throughout this state, and on which
appear the names of every important
Georgia city. The work, however.
was not done in Georgia; it bears the
imprint of a Western printing house.
A similar piece of work for another
railroad has the imprint of a New
York printing firm. Why such work
should be sent away from Georgia, by
local men who control il, cannot be
understood. There are three or four
printing offices in each Atlanta, Sa-
vannah, Augusta, Macon, Columbus
and other Georgia cities that can ex-
ecute it in as good style and at as
low cost as can be done anywhere.
Printing offices are among the
smaller industries which give employ
ment to a large number of skilled
wage-earners, who, in their turn. dis
tribute their earnings to merchants
and others who give business to the
railroads. If all the firms and cor
porations in Atlanta. Savannah, Au-
gusta, ETC., We're to follow the exam
pie of the railroads in question, It
would not be long time before an i'm
portant factor in every day life would

One of the meanest swindiers heard
of in years was arrested in New York
the other day. Catholic priests were his
victims. He would go to a priest and
arrange for a mass for the repose of
the soul of an alleged relative. Then
he would express desire to contrib
ute something to the church. The mass
and the contribution would usually
amount to about $40. in payment OF
which the man would prefer check
for $50 or $40. His scheme. OF course.
was to get the change, which in a
number Of instances he did. The checks
were always worthless. and the priest
victimized would be out the amount
OF money given the swindler.

Facts About the w. L.
Douglas Shoe Business.

An addition to the factory is now
being built, which will increase the
output from $500 pairs to 10, ZOO pairs
daily, and increase the volume of
/ business to 81, 900, 900 for the year 1903
The manufacturing plant is right
mp to date, equipped with every
modern device. About one-half of
the present factory has been built
and equipped with machinery the
past four years. A new power plant,
sufficiently large to meet all demands
that may be made upon it for several
years, was installed two years ago.
The manufacturing plant, machinery,
and all the "a retail stores throughout
the country are free from incumbrance
of any sort, and the company has
sufficient cash on hand to conduct a
business of $1,000, 600 annually with
out borrowing money.
Practically all the stock of the
w. L. Douglas Shoe Co. is owned by
me. l am the president of the cor
poration. The business has always
paid good profit, and is now paying
better than ever.
| believe that the best way to per-
petuate the business is to let the
people own it and control it. l have,
therefore, capitalized the business for
two million dollars, one million dol
lars of which is preferred stock and
one million dollars common stock.
The preferred stock which is offered
to the public at par, is non-cumulative
and preferred both as to dividends
and assets. Every dollars worth of
stock offered the public in this sue
cessful business has more than dol
lars worth of actual, tangible assets
behind it.
Dividends will be declared semi
annually, payable on January l and
July 1, and will be payable in funds
current in New York or Boston.
There is nothing whatever of a
speculative nature about the purchase
of this stock. 1t is an old established
business, manufacturing staple
article of merchandise. The business
has been continuously successful for
more than quarter of century, and
is more prosperous to-day than at any
period of its history. / retain half
interest in the business. My interest
in the business is represented by the
common stock, and / cannot receive
one cent of dividend on my stock
until the full ~ dividend has been
paid on all the preferred stock.
The Douglas business is not subject
to fierce competition or affected by
panics, therefore this is better invest
ment than any other industrial stock.
This is the best opportunity ever
offered for the permanent investment
of large or small sums of money. The
principal is secure, and the 70 annual
dividend certain. 1 have never known
of anything better.
To my friends and patrons of many
years I unhesitatingly recommend
the purchase of this stock as a safe,
sound, conservative investment.

Facts About the w. L.
Douglas Shoe Business.

Facts About the w. l.
Douglas Shoe Business.
To those familiar with the shoe or
leather trade it is well known that /
have been one of the largest, as well
as most successful, manufacturers and
retailers of mems Goodyear Welt
(hand-sewed process) shoes in the
world.
TheW.L. Douglas Shoe businessises-
tablished on an entirely different plan
from that of any other shoe concern.
The WI. Douglas product is market
ed in an original way. The method
by which the goods are sold has made
place for the Douglas shoe in all the
principal cities and towns in the
United States.
The business has been steadily adj
vertised for nearly twenty years, until
now w. L. Douglas shoes are worn by
more people in all stations of life
than any other make.
The steady call upon the dealer for
w. L. Douglas shoes insures large
and increasing business. The "a re-
tail stores in IS American cities, owned
and operated by me, take portion of
the factory's product. This is all spot
cash business. also sell to the retail
shoe dealers throughout the country,
having usually but oneagent in town.
Thus, in selling the product of the
factory through my own retail stores,
as well as to retail shoe dealers in
towns and cities where have no store,
I keep the factory constantly employ
ed, turning out 1880 pairs of shoes
per day. There has been no change
in the selling price or terms in eigh-
teen years, the dealer always making
the same profit, thereby buying with
confidence. Short credits prevent the
dealer from getting overstocked.
My object in disposing of a half-in-
it be perpetuated and extended. The
name, W. L. Douglas, which is ac-
cepted everywhere as a standard of
merit, has been applied principally to
mems Goodyear Welt (hand sewed
process) shoes. Ii can as well be ap-
piled to all kinds and prices of mems,
wo1nen's and children's shoes.
The business has always been i'm
mensely profitable. We're my only
aim to accumulate money, this stock
would not be offered for sale.
There has not been a year in the
past twelve when the business has not
earned in actual cash much more than
an amount necessary to pay ~ annual
dividend on one million dollars, and
the past four years the business has
more than doubled andis still growing.
/ began the business in Brockton in
a small way 26 years ago, and from
time to time have increased it, until
at present business amounting to
S., 100000 annually is transacted.
AS an evidence of the prosperity of
the business,the fact is cited that from
727, 1924 pairs of shoes sold in the year
ending July 1, 1898, the business has
steadily increased to 1,7ss, 200 pairs for
the year ending July 1, 1902, or more
than million pair increase.

An sopcdote OF Bach,

The Duke of SaXe-Weimar once invit-
ed John Sebastian Bach, the Nestor of
German music, to attend dinner at
the palace. Before the guests sat down
to the feast Bach was asked to give
an improvisation. The composer seat
ed himself at the harpsichord and
straightway forgot all about dinner
and everything else. He played so long
that at last the duke touched his shoul-
der and said. "We are very much
obliged, master, but we must not let
the soup get cold.'
Bach sprang to his feet and followed
the duke to the dining room without
uttering a word. But he was scarcely
seated when he sprang up, rushed back
to the instrument like one demented,
struck o few chords and returned to
the dining room, evidently feeling much
better. 81 beg pardon, your highness," "
he said, "but you interrupted me in q
series of chords and arpeggios on the
dominant seventh, and 1 could not feel
at ease until they were resolved into
the tonic. 1t is as if you had snatched
a glass Of water from the lips Of man
dying of thirst. Now have drunk the
glass out and am content"

Birds Nests and Poetry.

Birds nests have attracted the atten-
ton of inquisitive genius fromsthe days
Of Aristotle down to the present time.
This is not wonderful, because the
nests are invariably curious and often
beautiful, besides offering cradle, as
it were. for host Of romantic specula-
tions and poetical theories. 1magina-
ton has taken hold Of birds and their
nests with singular affection, drawing
Forth meantime some beautiful leg
ends to enrich romance withal and to
add to the sum of what is most per-
sistent in the song of mankind.
The ancients told that the halcyon, a
beautiful aquatic bird, had its nest on
the seas breast, little floating palace
around which the water was always
calm and sweet. Halcyon, or alcyon,
was the kingfsher, it is supposed, but
We now know every species of this
bird, and none Of them builds its nest
to drift about on the sea. Indeed, as
if to make the contrast Of fact with
fancy as great as possible, most Of the
kingfshers dig deep holes in the
ground for their homes.
