you aecept an maOn Of FesNaptha you'll be disappointed

Scientific men said, make a soap
that will wash clothes in water at
normal temperature and the clothes
will last a great deal longer; it's the
high temperature of boiling water
that hurts the cloth fibre, whether
cotton or wooden, and makes the
clothes wear out so soon.
CommonSenSe said, make a soap
that will do away with the hard
rubbing and you'll not only save the
clothes, but a lot of time and back
breaking labor.
So FelS-Naptha soap was made,
made to wash clothes in cold or
lukewarm water and to get them
perfectly clean without hard-rubbing.
Now, FelS-Naptha has the Scien-
tific facts and the CommOnsenSe back
of it. That needs no argument. But
it remains to be proved to you that
FelS-Naptha will do the work, and do
it easier, quicker and better.
We can give you the testimony

LARGE SURPLUS OF MONEY IN
COLUMBUS, MISS.
f.. A. Weaver, President of the City
Council, Talks About Recent
Timber Development.

| B. A. Weaver, president of the City
Council of Columbus, Miss, and vice
president of the Columbus Insurance
and Banking Company, was in the
city yesterday en- route home In
| talking of conditions in general, he
said in part:
My impression OF Birmingham
since I have been here this time is
that there has been a marked i'm
provement in business activity and
trade The city is showing a very
marked growth in every line. There
is an increase in the value of prop
erty, and it makes good government,
not only for Birmingham, but for the
people in other places with money
to invest.
Z think that an up-to-date, large
hotel would be a paying investment
here. Some one might buy the Nor
ris hotel when it is sold, and open
there a gigantic hotel, which would
be a paying investment from the very
start It would also be a great ad-
dition to Birmingham and this dis
trict. Birmingham is reaching out
from a wholesale, manufacturing and
iObbing standpoint, and with few eX-
ceptions the prices given on all pro-
ducts are as low as those given by
other cities that are producing points.
/ believe that if the merchants of
Birmingham would work the trade
west of here along the Southern Rail-
way, sending out travelling men with
good prices, they could pick up a
great deal of business that now goes
to other cities. The railroad facil-
tiles here would help them.
in Columbus everything is pros
porous. The three banks there had
on deposit, according to the last
statement, on the first of January,
about s1,500,000. Each of them,
aside from declaring ten per cent.
dividend, added largely to their sur
plus. The Columbus Insurance and
Banking Company is erecting six
story modern banking and Office
building. There is very little local
demand for money and investments
are being made elsewhere. This is
due to the accumulation of money
owing to the magnificent crop of cot
ton made in that immediate locality,
which is selling at a good price.
This surplus is, after we have
taken care of all our interests, new
enterprises and such things. Recent
ly a large area of timber land was
purchased and a large manufacturing
establishment was constructed for the
manufacture of sash, doors, lath and
similar articles. This concern alone
will employ about 400 people. All
of the industries now in operation
are doing handsomely.
THE timber lands around that
part of the country are enhancing in
value very rapidly, and the new rail-
roads in that part of the country are
bringing these lands in touch with
the outside world so that the timber
is marketable"
Mr.. Weaver was asked for his
views on the political situation in
his State, and stated that the CAM |
paign had not opened yet. and there
fore he had nothing to say in regard
to it.-Birmingham Age-Herald.
