To the Citizens of tlie Town of Gaff
ney: Let every business man and
every ot her person who feels an inter-
e-t in the promotion and upbuilding
of our city, meet in the Council Cham
ber, on next Tuesday night, at S
o’clock, to organize a I’usiness Club.
'['he time for such action is ripe, and
further delay will he criminal neg
lect on our part to the future of our
city. To-day we have the most wide- ^
ly known*town’,of its size in the South. ,
Every day visitors and prospectors ]
are coming among us with the view
of locating and investing their rnendy.
Many come and go. and to the most
of our citizens are unobserved. We
need an organization to answer and
inform the hundreds of enquiries
about our town, as well to take care
of the strangers that come within her
gates. ,
Di not think that because we have
been a plucky and determined set of
people, and have been successful in
getting a new county that a kin I of
momentum lias been acquired that j ^ Ir ‘
will insure the development of our
town, in both the I’orolinu’s. We hav,

ties now being opened up. all of
which, if properly presented to the
investor, will induce immigration and
build up our city; but we must make
the world know it. Such institutions
alone only arouse and direct senti
ment.
The individual efforts of our enter
prising citizeris can do hut little, but
tin* combined efforts and co-op-ration
of us a!!, wo believe, will reach the
end in view. W. C. IIamuick.

Looking at the work of the company
from an artistic stand-point, and
judging from the performances of
Monday. Tuesday, and last night, it
can be said that the entire troupe is
a meritorious one. Tlie acting was
! clean, the plays presented were among
! the best, and we can truthfully say
they deserve better success. Of course
the great drawback was the lack of
scenery to properly present the plav?.
a fault which could not be remedied,
but a-ude from that, to our mind, the
stage work was the best We have ever
witnessed in Gaffney.
Miss Atkinson is above the average
of emotional actresses, while the fe
male supDort ail round is good. The
leading man. Mr. Harry Keefer, j os-
sesses ability, grace and ease. All in
all. the Maude Atkinson Company is
one of much ability, and the only de
fect is the limited number in the
troupe.
Let Gaffey show her appreciation
of talent by patronizing this company
j extensively the remainder of the week.
To-night they will produce “Pyg-
| maiion and Galatea."to-morrow night,
J that beautiful emotional drama,“East
Lynn.” and Saturday night, “Rip
Van Winkle,” the play trade famous
by Joe Jeffeason. probably the best
known actor in America.

Two year? ago R. J. Warren, a
druggist at Pleasant Brook, X. Y.,
biught a small supply of Chamber
lain’s Cough Remedy. He sums up
the result as follows: “At that time
the goods were unknown in this sec
tion ; to-day Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy is a household word.” It is
the same in hundreds of communities
Whereever the good qualities of
Chamberlain s Cough remedy become

Nervous
People often wonder why their nerves arc
so weak; why they get tired so easily;
why they start at every slight hat
sudden sound; why they do not sleep
naturally; why they have frequent
headaches, indigestion and
Palpitation of the Heart.
The explanation is simple. It is found in
that impure blood which is contin
ually feeding the nerves upon refuse
instead of the elements of strength and
vigor. In such condition opiate and
nerve compounds simply deaden and
do not cure. Hood’s Sarsaparilla feeds
tte nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives
natural sleep, perfect digestion, self-
control, vigorous health, and is the
true remedy for all nervous troubles.
