In the Valley Of Sorrow.
Carolina Spartan.

SEs$A
Recently persons have been known
to express sympathy for the cotton
mills because cotton ia bringing 10
to IL cents. The complaints do not
come from the mills, but from weak,
tender hearted men who like to mspi-
fest sorrow for any body. They would
rather be sorry and cast down rather
than happy. A few months ago the
president of the Nswberry cotton
mill died. About that time the milk
lost more than 5000 00U in some un-
fortunate &v::ton deals. They have
recovered that loss and have a sur.
plus of $200,000 on hand and are
paying regular dividends. TheH have
done tnat with 10 cert co't,u. When
the mills we're buying cotton at 6 to8
cents and making besides dividends

The Grip.

Before we can sympathize with
others, we must have suffered ourselves. y
No one can realize the suffering attend
ant upon an attack Of the grip, unless
he has had the actual experience. There
is probably no disease that causes so
much physical and mental agony, or
which so successfully defes medical aid.
All danger from the grip, however, may
be avoided by the prompt use of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. Among the
tens of thousands who have used this
remedy. not one case has ever been re-
ported that has resulted in pneumonia
or that has not recovered. For sale by

dent Carnot's assassination, has fixed
up bunch Of trouble for 1906. Ma
dame, pleasantly, even gaily, states
that 1905 will be a wild year, full OF
strange. extravagant. incomprehensible
and astonishing madnesses. She pre-
diets that Germany will be threatened
with general smash early in the year;
that South America is to be torn with
upheavals, that an unconquerable cpl
demic is to sweep this country; that
Belgium will play a curious part in
the transformation of Europe; that the
attention of the world will be conferred
on Turkey and the near East; and that
there will be serious losses in the art
world.
How refreshing it would be If some

run on Broadway between and s

occur every few minutes.
To provide greater accommodations
for people crossing from Brooklyn and
ether Long Island cities and towns,
3wo new bridges are under way-the
Manhattan, to be finished next year,
and the Blaekwell's Island bridge, to
be finished In 1903. The East River
Tunnel to connect the New York sub.
way with Brooklyn may be completed
n 1915. The experts say that these
two bridges and the tunnel will ae-
commoiate ITS 600 per hour. The pres
ent traffic by bridges and ferries be-
tween Long Island and Manhattan Is-
land approximates 5000, the rate OF
increase last year being about 80 per
cent. There Is no reason to expect =
smaller increase in any one OF the ten
years before the East River Tunnel win
be opened. It would seem, therefore,
that the Long Island side Of the prob.
lem is BIZ no means solved.

increasing to astounding numbers. Its
travelling portion is also increasing. In
the fiscal year OF 1904 the elevated
roads alone carried 286,634,195 pas
sengers, while in the fiscal year of 1906
the ''Ls" and subway combined carried

It will take an expenditure OF at least
$500 100000 to so increase the traffic
facilities OF New York City as to meet
present necessities, and the normal
growth Of the next few years, in sat
