Health. ‘ »
Weak, nervous, delicate, overworked
women are the ones that need a strength
builder. a tonic for their nerves, and a
cure for that awful internal trouble
that is wearing out their lives. Thous-
ands of women have found such in Dl‘.
Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy. . Mrs.
writes that her daughter had been a
great sufferer from female trouble, and
after repeated trials of doctors’ pre—
scriptions and other so-called cures, all
Of which gave no relief, she used Dr.
Kennedy’s ,Favorite Remedy and it
permanently cured her. ‘.
1f you have headache, uterine ca-
tarrh, irregular menstruation, leucor-
rhoea, or irregular monthly periods,
sickness incidental to change of life, or
any of the attending evils that are
present in female complaints, use Fav-
orite Remedy ; it will build up quickly
the run down constitution and bring
refreshing sleep. It will dispel those
tired looks and feelings, restore the
nervous system and permanently cure
you. Our daughters grow up weak
and delccale; mothers can avoid such
conditions by giving them Dr. David

‘.
appointment, approval and acceptance
of a trustee of the assigned estate of
the Union Manufacturing Company
will be heard and determined at the
probate Office. In‘ the meantime Mr.
W. F. Bishop has sent out the follow-
ing letter to the stockholders'of the
company in an effort to organize a new
company to succeed the Old company,
which it is hoped can be done:
‘ ‘The Union Manufacturing Company
was originally organized 'for the manu-
facture Of felt goods, but found it nec-
essary to enter into another branch of
'woolen manufacture some years since.
It found itself, last December, con-
fronted with the necessity of meeting
loans, which. it had made, as had been
the practice of the company for the
last twenty odd years. "1‘0 do so re-
quired some active step on the part of
the company. By order of the Direc-
tors a Stockholders’ meeting was called
for the purpose of raising money to
pay the indebtedness for borrowed
money, and a sufiiciert working capital
to put the company upon a payingbasis.
' At that meeting it was voted to issue
bonds of the company to the amount of
seventy-five thousand dollars, secured
by a first mortgage upon the property
of the company. Some of the credi-
tors Of the company declined to accept
the mortgage bonds at their face value
as security for their loan; and the com-
mittee appointed at the meeting was
unable to place the bonds so as to pay
the indebtedness and to secure any
working capital. Some other step was
then absolutely necessary, looking to
raising the money to meet the debts Of
the company,‘so as to avoid an attach-
sheriff}
At a meeting of the stockholders, of
which you had notice, holden on the
26th day of February, 1894, the subject
of assessment upon the stock to raise
the necessary amount to pay the debts
and furnish a working capital, was dis-
cussed; and it was found that some
stockholders could not unite. NO as-
sessment could be made without the
consent of every stockholder, so that
plan was abandoned, and it left the
company without any other alternative
than to make an assignment, sell its
property, pay its debts, and go out of
ingly voted to be, and has been made.
At that meeting the reports showed
that while the company had susta'ned-
large losses. it was rather the fault of
the superintendent, than the character
of the business it had been doing. A
detailed statement of which loss I
would be pleased to furnidi any stock-
holder not present at the meeting, de-
siring to know.
A new superintendent had been pro.
cured, Mr. Alexander Semple, who had
large experience in the manufacture of
the kind of goods which this company
had expended a considerable sum of
money to enable it to make. He had
taken hold of another manufacturing
company some years ago, and by his
business ability, mechanical skill and
thorough knowledge Of the process Of
manufacture, brought them into a great
state of prosperity, enabling them to
enlarge their manufactory‘, and extend
their business,.and what was better
still—pay good dividends.
Though Mr. Semple had been with
us but a short time before the mill shut
down, he demonstrated his ability as a
practical manufacturer in various ways,
notably in saving of material formerly
wasted to an amount more than fifteen
per cent. upon our capital.
A sale of our property without some
effort upon the part of the stockhold-
ers, would result, in all probability, in
the creditors taking it, and the stock-
holders losmg every cent of interest
they have in it. . ’
With Mr. Semple to manage the busi-
ness, and to be at the head, I have no
doubt but that the business could be
carried on in the mills of the company
profitably, with a good return for the
money invested.
I am interested in my own right, that
of my wife, and as trustee for my
nephews, and as a creditor, four times
that of any other stockholder or credi-
or. 3 ~
A number of stockholders wifh whom
I have talked, feel that the stockhold-
ers should unite in forming a company
to succeed the Old company, securing
such new capital and life as is necessary”
to take the place of such stockholders
as do not desire to make an effort to
save anything from the old company.
Mr. Semple has consented to stay
with the new company and accept the
presidency and superintendance at my
earnest solicitation, provided a com-
pany is organized upon a basis of a
capital of one hundred thousand dol-
lars, so as to enable it to purchase the
plant, and have a good healthy work-
ing capital, and to make such repairs
of the company’s present property and
machineryas in his judgment are nec-
conduct of the business.
From the inquiries I have made, I
have no hesitancy in intrusting the
large interest I have, and those whom
Irepresent, in the hands of Mr. Sem-
ple to manage as head officer and prac-
tically controlling officer of a new com-
that the superintendent holds the key
to success or failure in a manufacturing
enterprise, and as his judgment directs
the turn, the profit or loss will follow.
.. I want to save what I have, and that
of those whom I represent as stock-
holders in the mill, and that is the ob-
ject of my issuing this circular letter,
to see how many other stockholders
would join me on the same basis 11 or-
ganizing a new company upon such a
basis as will enable us to keep Mr. Sem-
ple and retrieve the losses which the
company has suffered the past few
years. . ,fi
Under the assignment the property
will have to be sold soon, and it will be
necessary for immediate action.
Will you have the kindness to com-
municate with me so that I may know
within ten, or at the outside fifteen
days from the date of this letter, your
desires in the premises. ‘
