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.

And the Most and Best-Trained Ele

The management of the consolida
ted Adam Forepaugh and Sells Broth
ers’ America’s greatest shows, which
are booked for Spartanburg on
Thursday Nov. 3, go upon the broad-
gauge principle that they can't give
their patrons too much of a good
thing, and carry that purpose to a
literally elephantine climax. 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.
A Parable.
And it came to pass that after he
had advertised his goods there came
unto him great multitudes from all
the region round about, and did buy
of him. And when his competitors
saw it they marvelled among them
selves, saying: “How be it that this
man is busy, while we loaf about our
doors?” And he spake unto them,
saying: “Verily, verily. I say unto
you, in this fast age of push and rus
tle, it is easier for u camel to enter
the eye of u needle than for a busi
ness man to flourish without adver
tising.”

An Unfortunate Difficulty.
There was an unfortunate dif
ficulty last Saturday evening be
tween James Butler and A. L. For-
tenbery, two fellow workmen in
Richardson’s wagon shops, in which
Fortenbery was struck a severe blow
on the side of the head by Butler.

sidered to be in a critical condition
and Butler is being held by Sheriff
Boss awaiting the result of- Forten-
berys injuries.
Mr. Glover at the Battle Ground.
