J7 ^ To touch or handle them ^T/^ quickly produces swelling and inflammation with in- Vf / tense itching and burning 1. of the skin. The eruption soon disappears, the suf- iJ^Z >//*/ 81 ferer hopes forever; but B almost as soon as the little blisters and ? pustules appeared the poison had reached ^ the blood, and will break out at regular intervals and each time in a more aggra- Q, vated form. This poison will loiter in the ^ system for years, and every atom of it must be forced out of the blood before you can expect a perfect, permanent cure. S. AAA Nairn's AitNotc is the only cure for Poison Oak, Poison Ivy, and all noxious plants. It is com- R posed exclusively of roots and herbs. Now ^ is the time to get the poison out of your system, as delay makes your condition n worse. Don't experiment longer with salves, washes and soaps?they never cure. Mr. S. M. Marshall, bookkeeper of the Atlanta dl (Ga.) Gas I,ight Co., was poisoned with Poison _ . Oak. He took Sulphur, Arsenic and various 11 other drugs, and applied externally numerous , lotions and salves with no benefit. At times the D] swelling and inflammation was so severe he was almost blind. For eight years the poison would xv break out every season. His condition was much improved after taking one bottle of S. S. S., and a few bottles cleared his blood of the poison, and all evidences of the disease disappeared. ID People are often poisoned without knowing when or how. Explain your case fully to our physicians, and they will HI cheerfully give such information and advice as you require, without charge, and we will send at.the same time an interesting book on Blood and Skin Diseases, t THE SWIFT SPECIFIC C0M ATLANTA, GA. Obituary. A noble and promising life has been lost to the world by the death of I 1 Ri Sanders O. Harman. He was born January 22nd, 1874, in the Providence ca community, Lexington, county, S. C, , and died August 12,1901, just hav j ing entered his 28th year. He was confirmed in youth at j Providence Evangelical Lutheran | ^ church, of which he was a most exemplary member on August 15,1890. ^ His death was sad and tragic, occurring while at his work. The tongue of the wagon breaking, preciptitated the wagon upon the mules, frightening them, caused them to rnu away, threw him from his seat ^ to the ground, the wheels passing j us over his body inflicting injuries which I produced his death. aE "FTis sodden removal from earth when life for him was so radiant with j hope and fraught with happiness cast a deep shadow over the whole community and prostrated the be- ! reaved family by its terrible shock. | The funeral services of our dear j si young friend were conducted by the to Hevs. W.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: Your correspondent has been con- ^ fined at a little world of business at j gr home for a term of eight years, tug- j^e ging away at the oars of life almost yy day and night listening to the ever aj, constant click of the telegraph in- 80 struments, the station signal of ne noisytrains and worrying his brain ca over <a set of red tape railroad books, ^ together with all the work and j-jj, worry of a thrifty little mercantile business, until it has become neces- ^ sary to seek rest in the gentle, pa breezes of the mountains. In all of ajj this long time I have had but one jn week's vacation before, and none but those who experience close business g0 confinement can form any idea of the ur wearing effects of such labor on pr; ones health. en For the benefit of those of your readers whose condition in life do wj not rfquire the kind of rest that jjii would bring them to the mountains, as well as those whose circumstances will not permit them to be here, I 8^c will write a few lines as I go long. j.rfl Greenville is quite a nice little jfc town. It has almost one unbroken shade of beautiful native oake, and wo the lots and yards are covered with fresh green lawns. All the business ^ snterprises seem to be progressing, aQ( and the houses are neat and desirable. 1 lot of new and modern styled resilences have been built recently and aQ( others are in course of erection. |ar Electric street car lines are being ex- jus tended to different points and it will aD( mt he Ion/? till thev will be extended fu. o ' f | tuv >ut to Paris mountain. The build- jja, ng of a park is undergoing consider- rui ition, and when this is done and the wo jars reach the mountains the people 0p^ lere and strangers who come will cor ind it even more pleasant than it jj low is. Greenville has behind it just :he requisites for its advancements? eta noney and plenty of push. a. It is backed up by cotton mills and \ fine farming country. The farmers gt( jultivate largely cotton and corn, but crops are much diversified. I njE never saw finer crops grow anywhere than I have seen around here, and cej from Laurens to Greenville. Our people down home are making but p01 little corn, but there certainly are 6ne fields of corn all over this coun- Djr try. I noticed that cotton has made Baj wonderful improvements all along the line of road, and promises to make a ap fairly good yield. Today I leave this beautiful shady town and go to Glenn Springs for a few days, and then to Asheville. From one of these places I will write cu you my next letter. H. ap Greenville, S.
