pay. Price 25 cents.
The man trussed up so that he can
j neither move hand nor foot is in his

i affected by rheumatism. Often the disease
only partially disables, and with
j crutch and cane the sufferer hobbles
! painfully about.
Rheumatism can be cured by the use
of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov]
ery. This great blood purifying mediI
cinc eliminates the poisons which cause
.1 ! T. ;
: ine disease. it mtitc.acs tut av.u>uj t?v
| the blood-making glands, and ro increases
the purity and abundance of the
| blood supply, thus giving vigor and
j vitality to all organs of the body which
| depend for their health on plenty of
J pure blood. It builds up the body with
i firm flesh instead of flabby fat. The
j "Discovery"' contains neither alcohol
| nor narcotics.

I Tried mauy doctors, and two of them gave
| me up to die. None of them did me much
I good. The pains in my back, hips and legs
(and at times in my head), would nearly kill
me. My appetite was very bad. Everybody
who saw me said I must die. I took five
bottles of the ' Golden Medical Discovery' and
four vials of the
' Pellets.' and to-day
my health is good
after suffering twelve
years with rheu- ^

Mr. R. Cal Moore has directed us
to change the address of his Dis
patch to Greenwood, S. C., where he
and his family will reside in the
future. Cal is a clever fellow and
an industrious citizen and we regret

There is no earthly use for any
j home in the county to be without an
j organ or a piano, when M. A. Malone,
| the leading music house in Columbia,
! offers them at such low figures and
! upon such reasonable terms. He
i represents none but reputable manui
facturers and consequently none but
i first class instruments are kept in
j stock.

We have dropped a number of the
I name9 of those who have failed to
; heed our request for a settlement
through careless or neglect from
: our book. There will be others done
j likewise if they fail to settle by the

; county with the Auditor. We regret
to U3P this drastic measure, but business
forces us to do so.
I If the old saying, "all the world
loves a lover,'1 is true, then the fiction
in the Cosmopolitan for January
! should be popular indeed. All the
stories vary in treatment, plot and
: action, from the charming storv,
j "Cupid's Practical Joke," to the
strong domestic tragedy, "Her
Father's Wife," but all have love for a
j central theme. The price of this ex
cellent monthly is only 10 cents per
number or $1 per annum. Address,
: Cosmopolitan, Irvington, New York.
