From Clifton.
(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Clifton, Jan. 24.—My attention
has been called to an error in my
communication of recent date, rela
tive to the Gaffney mill. I should
have said that Mr! J. Xewt Jones,
and not Mr. Barnette, has charge of
the cloth room.
Mr. E. J. Barnette, one of the
most affable, agreeable and able mill
men of the south, has full charge of
all the weaving. He superintends
1400 looms, gets 95 per cent of possi
ble product, and everything in his
department runs smoothly. Mr. Bar
nette has remarkable talent as a mill
man. Seaton.

North Gaffney.
The growth of North and North
East Gaffney in the last two years
has been amazing. Within that
time the north end of Logan street
has been packed with houses to the
Providence road, and a number of
buildings have been erected on that
road. The north end of Limestone
street is also full of houses, and a
number have been built out on the
Gaffney Ferry road. The same is the
ease on the Cherokee Ford road.
This is distinctively a residence sec
tion of the city and contains some of
its prettiest buildings. All of them
are up-to-date in style and present
evidence of stability and comfort.
With its nice houses and well im
proved lots, containing vegetable
gardens and commodius barns, this
section of the city presents a specta
cle of which the city is justly proud.
This is apparent on every hand; the
result of the manifest industry and
good character of the people.
A few years ago this whole section
was planted in corn and cotton,
and had no value save for farm
ing purposes. Now it is sold in
lets of suitable sizes for homes, at
good, but not exhorbitant, prices,
and the man who owns land on these
streets and roads is considered
lucky. Who knows but in a few
years Col. John L. Black’s pre
diction will be realized? He said the
whole section from Gaffney to Chero
kee Ford would at some time be a
continuous city. So mote it be.

called for $45,580.11, and that he col

DR. HARTMAN SAYS
Pe-ru-na Cures Catarrh Wherever
Located.
All classes and conditions of peo
ple have chronic catarrh. It spares
neither strong or weak, old or young,
healthy or sickly.
Ail ranks of people
have chronic ca
tarrh. Rich men,
poor men, beggar
men, thieves, law-
years, doctors, mer
chants. priests. Not
only catarrh of the
head, but catarrh of
throat, catarrh of
the longs, catarrh of the stomach,
catarrh of the liver, catarrh of the
kidneys, catarrh of the bowels; snd
a* multitude of women are afflicted
with catarrh fo the pelvic organs.
When it is said, therefore, that Pe-
ru-na cures catarrh wherever located,
a much larger fact is stated than at
first appears. Who is it that says
Pe-ru-na will cure catarrh wherever
located? Doctors say it. lawyers say
it, preachers say it, a vast army of
men and women say it, who have
tried it. The old and the young say
it. They say it in the East and in
the West; they say it In the North
and thj South. All these say that
Pe-ru-na will euro catarrh wherever
located.

The use of the surgeon’s knife is be
coming so general, resulting fatally
in such a large number of cases, as to
occasion general alarm.
Mr. William Walpole, of Walshtown,
South Dakota, writes; "About
three years ago, there came under
my left eye a little blotch about the
size of a small pea.
It grew rapidly,and
shooting pains ran
in every direction.
I became alarmed
and consulted a
good doctor, who
pronounced it can
cer, and said that it
must be cut out.
This I would not
^ consent to, having
little faith in the
indiscriminate use of the knife. Read
ing of the many cures made by S. S.
S., I determined to give that medicine
a trial, and after I had taken it a few
days, the cancer became irritated and
began to discharge. This after awhile
ceased, leaving a small scab, which
finally dropped off, and only a healthy
little scar remained to mark the place
where the destroyer had held full sway.
