There are numerous diseases having
their origin in the blood, but which on
the surface do not appear to be a blood
disease. Such is Malaria, which la a
poison breathed into the lungs, and thus
taken into the blood and circulated, im
buing the entire system with ita morbid
effects. Those who have suffered from
this dreaded disease know what a life
less condition ensues and how the vitality
is wasted away so that death ia often
caused by some simple malady, because
of the low ebb to which life is reduced
by this poverty of blood. This coali
tion of the blood often gives rise to
boils, carbuncles, abscesses and ulcers,
and not infrequently causes catarrh,
bronchitis, and even consumption.
Captain Henry Bond, late of the U. 8.
Navy, has been a sea-faring mau all his
life, and has been in all parts of the
world, having sailed twice around the
Cape of Good Hope, once around Cape
Horn and three times through the Suez
Canal. Captain Bond resides at the Na
tional Military Home, Dayton, Ohio, and
in a recent letter says: “For thirty-two
J rears I have been a sufferer from ma-
aria, and certainly know what this toeri-
ble disease is. I have tried remedies in
THE WAY A CITY IS BUILT.

CAPTAIN BOND.
fap&n, Egypt, Persia, the West Indies
and other parts of the world, but the
disease had such a hold upon my aya-
tem that it was impossible to get relief.
After trying all remedies I could get in
different countries, and nearly cyery
blood remedy in this country, without
the slightest benefit, some one recom
mended S. S. S. This remedy promptly
reached the disease, and has driven ft
entirely out of my system. I certainly
pronounce S. S. S. a blessing to hu
manity, and heartily recommend it to all
suffering from that most dreadful dlseasn,
malaria. I have frequently been at the
point of death, with a temperature of
106, and when I began the use of S. 8. S.
I was so reduced in health, that my con
dition seemed hopeless. Now I am en
joying the best of health.”
S.S.S.nover fails to cure a blood trouble.
Scrofula, eczema, cancer, rheumatism,
contagious blood poison, and in fact any
disorder of the blood is promptly wipea
out and cured by it. Do not rely upon
a simple tonic to cure a deep-seated
blood disease. S. S. S. is guaranteed
purely vegetable, and for real blood dis
eases has no equal.

Buildings Enough Erected the Past
Year to Shelter Twelve Hun
dred People and Ail of
Them Filled.
A year ago The Ledger printed a
list of the buildings which had been
erected in Gaffney in 1894, and we
thought at that time the growth of
the city was marvelous, but at that
time we were only able to say that
about thirty-five houses and stores
iiad been erected. This year we are
enabled to report one hundred and
twenty-four and therejisa probability
that some have been omitted, but of
that number we are certain. How is
that for “git up and git there?”
Below we give a list of such of the
dwellings as we could collect that
have been built in the city this year.
Dock Lavender—One frame resi
dence.
W. T. Thompson—One frame resi
dence.
W. S. Lipscomb—Oue frame resi
dence.
Mr. E A. Brown—Two frame cot
tages.
VV. R. Lipscomb—Three frame cot
tages.
W. D. Thomas—One frame resi
dence.
Luke Corry—One frame residence.
O. 8. Kendrick—Seven frame cot
tage.
Gaffney Manufacturing Co.—Sixty-
five ccttagee, four brick cotton houses
and one brick store.
W. L. Morgan—One frame resi
dence.
M. R. Sams—One frame residence.
Wm. Marsh—One frame residence.
John White—One frame residence.
Joe Lowery—One frame residence.
John Petty—One frame residence.
T. J. Alexander—One frame resi
dence.
W. A. Fort—Two frame cottages.

Itore and one iron cottage.
J. Q. Little—One two story brick
•tore and three frame cottages.
Sam Copeland—One frame resi
dence.
Charley Dowdle—One frame cot
tage-!
W. W. Burnett — Three brick
stores and one frame store.
John Geddos—One frame cottage.
Jack Holt—One frame store.
Richmond Stacy—One frame eol-
tagee.
Geo. Wheeler—One frame cottage.
O. L. Goforth—One frame resi
dence.
A. J. Settlemeyer—One two story-
brick store and one frame house.
Smith Hardware Co.—One brick

Colored Methodist —One frame
church.
Mrs. J. B. Easterly—One frame
residence.
J. B. Jones—One frame cottage.
Tex Wilkins—One frame cottage.
J. B. Turner—One frame cottage.
Gallagher Bros.—One iron photo
gallery.
Lucy Murtishaw—One frame cot
tage.
In publishing the above 125 houses
we know that we have failed to get
some houses that have been built
this year but we had much rather
be short in our statement than to
have one house too many.
In addition the above many resi
dences and stores have been largely
added to and greatly beautified.
From present indications 1890 will
be a hummer in the city. The City
Hall now being built at a cost of ten
thousand will l^ad the ’90 list.

There is a difference between medi
cines and medicines.
Those of to-day. as a rule, differ from
those of the past in many respects.
Fully as great is the difference be
tween Dr. King’s
ROYAL GERMETUER
and the ordinary medicines of to-day.
It is unlike t'lem in
THESE FIVE THINGS:
1. It does not taste like a medi- |
cine. It is as pleasant to take as
lemonade and makes a most refreshing
drink.
2. It never nauseates the most
delicate stomach.
3. It does not swap off one dis
ease for another. It does not set up
one form of disease in order to relieve
another as is so often the case.
4. It contains no alcohol or
opium in any form and is always
harmless even when given to a babe
one day old.
5. It does not patch simply, it
cures. It reaches as nothing else
does to the hidden sources of disease
in the blood and removes the cause. It
does this with an ease and power that
have never been equaled.
For all troubles of the Blood, Stomach,
Bowels. Kidneys and Nerves, and for all forms
of MALARIAL POISON It stands pre-eminent—
without a rival or a peer.
