Address, L. U. CAMPBELL, GAFFNEY, S. C. The News Irom Town and Conntry Boiled Down for the Special Benefit of Busy Led ger Readers. J. C. Lipscomb is placing male- rial on h.s lot 6n Victoria Avenue for his new house. John will build a good one. John H. Lipscomb, of Goucher, killed on last Friday what he is pleased to term a baby pig. It weighed U05 pounds net. He has two large ones to kill which he says are hogs. Wonder how much they will weigh? P. Smith, of Wrights, showed us some sweet potatoes last Friday which were over a year old. While cleaning out his potato bin to store away the crop of potatoes which he raised this year he found enough of last year’s potatoes to make a pie. J. E. Hellams, of Waynesville, N. C.. is to open a photograph gallery in the upper s*ory of *he new build ing of Messrs, Carroll tfc Carpenter about January 1st. Mr. Hellams comes well recommended and we trust bis stay will be permanent. At the Opera House. The inimitable Sam Jones was greeted last Wednesday night by the largest audience that has ever as sembled in the Opera House. The lecturer was introduced in happy style by Prof. H. P. Griffith and, for more than an hour, he entertained and instructed in his own peculiar style. All who attended left feeling well repaid for having spent the evening with Mr. Jones. The Burglar Monday night proved, as predicted by The Ledger, to be one of the best attractions that ha* yet been brought to Gaffney. The story is beautifully told and was charmingly acted. Mr. Horace Mitchell as William Lewis, the burg lar, did some most creditable work, while Danold Bowles as Edward Barn- bridge, a law student kept the house in a good humor. Little La Pattio Fawn was a little too large to make a good Editha but her work wasjeredit- able. The balance of the support was fair. —Six photographs for 49c at the Southern Photo Co.

The behavior of a portion of those who occupied the gallery last Mon day night was anything but gentle manly. The practice of holler ing and stamping and whistling and beating bones should be stopped and the police or management should see that it is stopped. Applause is proper but tnose who desire to make spectacles of themselves shoud hire the hall and giveja show of their own and not disturb’people who pay their money and wisli to get the full benefit of the performance. A Whole Man. A whole man is another name for a healthy man. One of the prime es se n t i a Is of health is clean- li n es s. Tie first step in this direction is u clean skin. This fact is well known. Not only should the outside of the body be perfectly clean, but the interior of the body as well. Clean teeth, clean mouth, clean throat, clean nasal passages, are all re quisites of perfect health. The whole body, as well as every organ in the body, is lined with mucous membrane, which is even more liable than the skin to become very dirty. The most frequent cause of unclean mucous membrane is catarrh. Ca tarrh creates unnatural secretions, even though the catarrh be very slight. In this condition good health is impossible Dr. Horlmun has made a specialty of treating chronic catarrh for nearly 40 years. His great remedy (Pe-ru- na)has become known throughout the United States and Canada. It is certainly the best, and probably the only effective internal remedy for chronic catarrh. Its cures are per manent. The Doctor is also the author of many books on chronic catarrh. His latest book on the sub ject will be sent free for a short time by The Pe-ru-na Drug M’f’g.
