7 -jR , THE LEDUFR: GAFFNEY, S. C., OCTOBER 20, 1898. Pains of Rheumatism Have Completely Dis appeared Since Taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Rheumatism is cine to acid in the blood. Hood’s Sarsaparilla neutral izes this acid and permanently euros the aches and pains of rheumatism. Head the following: “ I was troubled with rheumatism when I was a small boy, and I have been a suf ferer with it more or less all my life. Not long ago I took a bottle of Hood’s Sarsa parilla, and it did me so much good I continued its use, and since taking three bottles I have felt no symptoms of rheu matism.” R. E. Blalock, Durham, N. C. “I was troubled with rheumatism and could hardly walk. I have taken three bottles of Hood’s Sarsaparilla and today am a well man.” Robebt Jones, 302 Macke St., Wilmington, North Carolina. Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is the best—In fact the One True Blood Purifier. All druggists, ft; six for $5. Get Hood’s. Dalle arc the favorite cathar- nOOu S r Ilia tic. All druggists. ‘M.

Each of these famous exhibitions includes a big herd of the biggest and littlest performing elephants of every spe cies, from Asia, Africa, Borneo, Su matra and Ceylon, and ranging in age from the colossal tusker of over a hundred years to the youngest, who can easily walk under him, and bosses the big, magnanimous fellows about in a manner most comical to behold. It should be borne in mind that these are distinctly different herds, appearing simultaneously, and each illustrating in many astonish ing, queor.and comical ways, and in novel feats, apparently impossible to such bulky creatures, the different method of the schools in which they have been graduated to the degree of masters of elephantine art. Their ponderously prodigious programme includes military maneuvers and drills, waltzes and quadrilles, lofty feats of np^x balancing, colossal living pyramids, recumbent, sitting and standing poses, aldermanic feasts, clown carnivals, racing rival ries, bicycle exhibitions, musical me langes, boxing bouts, dude diversions and marvelous acrobatic specialities and merry mishaps. They are great, great enough to deserve special atten tion among the innumerable wonders, sensations and fun-makers of the greatest enterprise of its kind, and the only big show to visit us the present season.
