ing by rapid strides to the leadership
i'm commercial circles of the South
With $24,142, 465 invested in manu-
featuring, the value of her output last
year amounted to $50, 436,117. There
are now about 1900 concerns engaged
in the manufacture of various articles

try, and the largest paper mills and
the largest paper box factory in the

and the largest wooden ware factory
in the world. In addition 10 these
concerns, the manufacturing and job
bing establishments represent every
line Of merchandise and many Of its
firms are well known over the entire
country.
The exceptional advantages enjoyed
by Richmond as q distributing center
make il d convenient and attractive
market for retail merchants-particu-
larly those Of the South. It's seven
great railroads. with . total mileage
of 27.674 miles, traverse the States of
Virginia, North Carolina, South Caro-
lima, Florida, Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi, Kentucky, Tennessee,
West Virginia and Ohio as well as
many Northern and Eastern States.
Its steamship lines give Richmond the
nitrlat
rates on all lines.
Leading manufacturers and jobbers,
anxious to further extend their trade
throughout the South now offer to
refund the railroad fare of any South
ern merchant whose purchase upon a
personal visit to Richmond reach
amounts large enough to justify such
action. Particulars of this leberal
offer may be had by writing the
Chamber of Commerce or any of the
following leading firms; Southern
Manufacturing Co, manufacturers of
baking DoWder); Freshman, Morris &

The foregoing concerns are al! rep
resertative manufacturers and whole
salers in their respective lines. They
are Wide-aWake, progressive establish
ments, faic in method and liberal in
principal. They are making it posi-
bic for enterprising Southern retail
merchants TO visit one Of the largest
and best cities in the South and at
the same time secure their stocks of
goods at as low or lower prices than
they could be bought in any other
marget, not excluding the great cities
Of the North.

A FACT PROVEN.
Should Convince Even the Most SI1ep-
teal of Its Truth,

If there is the slightest doubt in the
minds of any that Dandruff germs do not
exist, their belief is compelled by the
fact that a rabbit innoculated with the
germs became bald in six weeks time.
1t must be apparent to any person
therefore that the only prevention Of
badness is the destruction Of the germ
which act is successfully accomplished
in one hundred per cent. of cases by
the application of Newbro's Herpicide.
Dandruff is caused by the same germ
which causes badness and can be pre-
vented with the same remcdy-Ncwbro's
Herpicde.
