S. We give Trading Stamps except on Patent and Proprietary medicines. Suap Shots. Mr. R.S. Galloway, editor of the lo cal department of th? Associate He formed Presbyterian, recently visited our section, and in the last issue of Ms paper writes as follows, under the above caption, of his trip: We ran up last week to Anderson, Concord, Iva and Moffatsville. . A number of new dwellings have gone up in Iva since Spring. The place seems to be prospering. The good people of Iva are thinking of painting their church. This church will be an ornament to the town. Mr. Olin Brownlee and Mr. Frank Pearson both have positions in Ander son. Mr. Jesse Sherard, of Moffattsville, is principal of the Bufort graded school. We predict that Mr. Sherard will make his mark. Mr. and Mrs. R. I. Stewart, of Iva, have moved to Rosebud, Texas, the home of Rev. Calvin Pressly. The Presbyterian wishes them well. Rev. J. V. Black is preaching good sermons and has good audiences to hear him. The people like Mrs. Black. Young Miss Black is the apple of the eye of fond parents. It gave us pleasure to meet Mrs. Dodd in Anderson. She was formerly Mrs. Neighbors, of Laurens. She is a thorough A. R. P. and has a bright young son whom she wants to educate. We learn that Mr. S. A. Pressly is en couraged with his outlook at Anderson. Mr. Pressly is engaged in the broker's business and seems pleased with his situation. Mr.S. D. Brownlee and Mr. James Pearson are each in strong firms at An derson and are doing well. We are glad to see our young men succeeding. Mr. Pringle Cook put us under obli gation by kindness Hast week. He is one of the solid business men of that sec tion. We trust his shadow will not grow less. We met Mr. Jimmie Drake, in An derson last week. He is teaching most successfully a school at Flat Rock, six miles from Anderson, C. H. "Jimmie' is a good fellow, and deserves to suc ceed. Miss Iva Cook is just back home from a pleasant visit of three months to Woodruff and other points. She en joyed, the visit. Miss Iva is a great church worker. Mr. and Mrs. D. J. Sherard gave us the hospitality of their home. Mr. Sherard has been a patron of both our ' colleges. He has some bright boys at home now that we hope to see in Due West. We dropped in at the Merchants and Farmers Bank of Anderson, and found President Hill and Mr. Vandiver very courteous and kind and the bank doing a good business. These gentlemen are skillful and safe business men and their bank stands high in the commercial world. Stock rated at $175. It was a pleasure to meet Mr. Reid, formerly of Bartow, Fla.," at Anderson. Mr. Reid married Miss Nannie Hood. His good looks are only equalled by that of his good wife when last we saw her. Mr. Reid will locate in Andei-son and engage in the insurance business. The church at Concord ?3 over one hundred years old. They have some active young men-good young men coming on. We had not been here be fore. Some of our people have as good farms as we have seen recently and well j cultivated. We were glad to meet them and make their acquaintance. We believe Anderson County to be one of the banner counties of the State. The land is well cultivated and ranges from $20 to $40 an acre and thc people are proud of the county. The town has a tine country to back it and the busi- i ness interests of Anderson are prosper- | ing. We heard the expression made Catarrh 1 to Cons A Forerunner of the Wost Fatal Disease. Though its offensive features are sometimos almost unbearable, few people are aware of the danger of which Catarrh is tli" forerun ner. Catarrh invariably leads to j Consumption. Growing worse'and ! worse each winier, those who rely upon the usual treat nient, of sprays, washes and inhaling mix tures find that, it is impossible to check the disease with those local applications which only reach the surface. The offensive discharge increases all the while, causing a feeling of personal defilement, and gets deeper.and deeper until ir is only ti question of ii short, time until the lungs are affected. The importance, of tho proper treatment can therefore bc readily appreciated. But no good what ever can bo expected from local applications, as such treatment never did euro Catarrh, and never will. ?hat Anderson ought to have an A. R. P. organization. There are line possibili ties here. All our people know Mr. Robt. More head. Yes. Well, he is a good fellow -but not married. Well, he is "think ing about it." There are rumors in the air up in that country. Mr. Morehead has a farm of 430 acres-broad acres that we rode over and we pronounce it fine land. Of course this has no con nection with the above remarks, but the land would be "handy" and not to be despised. Mr. Morehead was kind to us. While in Anderson we heard and saw Mayor J. K. Hood preside in the city court with ease and grace. Mr. Hood showed us over the new city hall and the new court house, which are an hon or to Anderson and are finished off in modern style. Anderson is building up rapidly. We regretted not being able to accept the kind invitation to spend the night with Mr. Hood. It is a pleasure to say that our young friend is to-day one of the prominent figures in the public eye of Anderson. Mr. Robt* Morehead and Mr. Burns of Concord were very kind. Mr. More head went with us over the congrega tion. Mr. T. E. Mcconnel and Mr. G. F. McConnel are capital farmers. We counted twelve big banks of potatoes in the yard of Mr. Willie Stevenson. He is a very active young man. Con cord is talking about a new church building. The Black Diamond Railroad has stirred Anderson. The route runs from Columbus, 0., to Anderson, S. C. South of Anderson the route has not been agreed on. Due West has a chance if she wants to pull for the road. The road is to be a double track line. Mr. Jas. Tribble is the head of the move ment in Anderson. It might be well for our people to interest themselves in this road. Work of RD fflan s. MERIDIAN, MISS., Dec. 21.-Lucy Thomas and her four-year-old boy were s'iot at Eutaw, Ala., to-day by soldiers o the First Missouri volunteers, who were mustered out at Columbia. Tenn., yesterday. The child was shot above the left eye and is not expected to re cover. The mother received a painful wound in the left arm. The soldiers were drunk and disorderly, recklessly shooting into every house as they pass ed. The woman and child were stand ing in the door of their home and prov ed an easy mark for the ruffians. The firing was done from the train on which the soldiers were en route home and was kept up at other places along the line, but fortunately without further fatal results. Gov. Johnston, of Alabama, has offer ed a reward of $100 for the arrest and conviction of every man implicated in the shooting.

"I had such a severe case of Catarrh that I lost my hearing in one ear, and part of the bone in my nose sloughed off.
