We have often heard the old folkB talk of the "cold day in Augast," which was experienced in lStt), but the younger generations never experienced a cold day in August until last Satur day, when they got it solid. The mer cury dropped to 54 degrees late in the afternoon, when the men folks donned their overcoats and the housekeepers built a fire in their rooms and placed blankets on their beds, all of which felt very comfortable. Friday was a warm day, and that night a heavy rain sot in and con tinued, without ceasing only nt short intervals several times, until noon on Saturday. The rains did considerable damage in many portione of tho conn ty. Nearly all of the sinai 1 streams got out of their bauke and several small bridgea were washed away. A small trestle nour the Broadaway trestle, on the railroad between Anderson and Helton, was slightly damaged. Fortu nately early that morning w. P. Drcn IIun, the efficient section master on that portion of the railroad, rode out on his crank car and discovered the condition of the trestle. The east bonnd train from Walhalla was due about 10.20 o'clock, and be flagged it down, thus probably preventing a terrible wreck and saving the lives of a number of people. A train came up from Helton, the passengers and mail were trans ferred and the Walhalla train return ed. The trestle was soon repaired and the aftornoon trains crossed it safely. Thc sew work on south Main street wa<* badly washed, and another portion of tho Blue Ridge freight depot fell in. This troublesome disease, as we all know, is caused by im* pure blood. Impure blood is more often than otherwise the result of a torpid liver and inactivity of the di- j Sestive organs. Get and keep your igestive organs in good running order and the blood will purify itself - then Rheumatism disappears. There is no treatment or remedy more effective in the relief and per manent cure of all ailments arising from a sluggish liver, like Rheuma tism, Indigestion, Headaches, Kidney troahtoe.
