In every case the poison must be eliminated from the blood, and no amount of external treatment can have any effect. There is no uncertainty about the merits of S. S. S. ; every claim made for it is backed up strongly by convincing testimony of those who have boon cured by it and know of its virtues by experience. Mr. Ij. J. Clark, of Orange Courthouse,Va., writes: “ For six years I had an obstinate, running ulcer on my ankle, which at times caused me intense suffe' : ug. I was so disabled for a long while that I was wholly unfit for business. One of the test doctors treated me constantly but did mo no good. I then tried various blood remedies, without the least benefit. S. S. S. was so highly recom mended that I concluded to try it, and the effect was wonderful. It seemed to get right at the seat of the disease and force the poison out, and I was soon com pletely cured.” Swift’s Specific— 5, S. S. FOR THE BLOOD —drives out every trace of impurity in the blood, and in this way cures permanently the most obstinate, deep-seated sore or ulcer. II is the only blood remedy guaranteed purely vegetable, and con tains not a particle of potash, mercury, or other mineral. S. S.

Jim was perfectly delighted with the “hugeability” of the world and the way that we were selling goods. Jim said that if the world was as wide every way as it was from Buck Shoals to Gaffney it was a buster. Jim also went on to say that if everybody sold goods as cheap as Bridges & Beason, that it would be no use to talk politics, hard times or low price cotton, for a man could take the worth of one bale and go to them and get his winter Shoes, Dry Goods, Notions, Clothing, Hats, Capes and Gro ceries, and then have enough left to buy the handsomest lot of Xmas goods that a fellow ever saw. Good for Jim! For the next twenty days we are. going to give some of the most wonderful bargains that have ev er been known in Gaffney. Don’t fail to come early and avoid the rush. Our Xmas goods are hand some. Don’t fail to see them. Yours for business. BRIDGES & BEASON GIVEN IN MARRIAGE. Tfirm> r.ijMilar Young C’ouji'uh of Tltta Coun ty Kntt-r tlit- State of Matrimony. Mr. Boyd Sarrutt, of this city, and Miss Lornnit Sheppard, of King’s Creek, were united in the holy bonds of matrimony by the Rev. B. P. Robertson, of this city, last Tuesday afternoon at 2:4f). The wedding took place at the residence of the bride’s uncle, near King’s Creek, in the presence of a few of the intimate friends of the contracting parties. .Mr. and Mrs. Sarratt came ro Gaffney thu'. afternoon by private conveyance and were tendered a reception at the homo of the groom’s parents at Limestone that night, The recep tion was largely attended by a host of friends and acquaintances of the con tracting parties. The spread was all that could be desired and the event was greatly enjoyed by all who had the good fortune to be present. The hrhie is one of the charming daughters of the King’s Creek si e- tion. She will be right rovaliy wel comed to Gaffney. The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. I. G. Sarratt and is u most popular young gent leman. The Ledger and all its friends will wish for the happy young couple many years of happy married life. THE O. R. & C. R. R. Mr. Mason Spencer and Miss Ma- hulia Pettit, both of the home neighborhood, were united in wedlock last Sunday at the home of the bride by the Rev. R. J. Tate. The cere- monyVas witnessed by a number of (befriends and relatives of the con tracting parties. This happy young couple are of the very best families in Cherokee county. The bride is a pretty and intelligent young lady, while the groom is manly and indus trious. They will probably continue to reside in the neighborhood in which they have lived so long and which they have honored and digni fied. The Ledger wishes them long life and prosperity. Mr. j). B. Webber, of Wilkinsville, one of Cherokces promising young farmers was married on the 21st of November to Miss Lily Wilson at the home of the bride’s parents at Snow Greek, in Iredel county, X. C., by Itev. Mr. Gooding. These young people start life with fine prospects and have the best wishes of The Ledger. SHORT LOCAL ITEMS. Lumber is being placed on the lot for the erection of Mr. George W. Webber’s new house on Logan street. The Ledger learns that a popular young blacksmith and one of Gaff ney’s sweetest and most charming daughters are to plight their troth next Sabbath. The Ledger is informed by a relia ble party that a Philadelphia linn is negotiating with a gentleman who owns real estate in Gaffney for a site on which to build a large knitting mill. The negotiations have not been completed but we have every reason to believe that they will he at an early date and that dirt will be broken for the foundation of one of th*! largest knitting mill establish ments in the South some time in February. Bishop Ellison Capers, of the Diocese of South Carolina, will ho in Gaffney next Wednesday and con duct services in the Episcopal church at 7 old p. m. Bishop Capers is one of the most scholarly men in the State and is a man of extraordi nary ability. lie is also a Christian and ins s. rmons are always instruct ive and entertaining. It will repay anyone to go out to hoar the Bishop ami The Ledger hopes he will he greeted with a crowded church. The Bishop will he in Blacksburg Thurs day evening ami conduct services. Tlw* I.Milestone ('Loral SnrSHy. Our people have learned to look far important advances constantly in tin work of Limestone College in all iis departments. Something now and good is always being added. The emmunity and the College are being drawn closer and closer together ail the time. The presence of the Col lege is a great stimulus to the lit erary, musical and artistic life of the city. Last Friday night a new evidence of this was given. The ener getic and popular Director ol Music, Prof. Wade It. Brown, had invited tiie musical folks of Gaffney to form a Choral Society. On Friday night last, the first meeting was held at Limestone College. Nearly all the singers in the town were there, some sixty or so. It was an enthusiastic meeting. The Society decided to study during the winter the dramatic cantata, “Fair Ellen,” by Max Bruch; the L>7th Psalm, and the Finale of Gaul’s “Holy City,” with a view to holding u splendid two days musical festival next May, with the assistance of some artists from other states. Some lighter music will he snidied alo. The first rehearsal was held at Limedone College on Mon day night, and was well attended in spite of the terrible weather. The enrollment has now reached sixty- five. The organization is called the Limestone Choral Society. 111m IToiirtli Y«-ur. The South Carolina Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church met in annual session in Greenville Just w A. Rev. R. C.

He has done a great deal of hard work for the Master’s cause among the colored people and his labors have not been in vain. The conference could not have pleased the congregation *t Dimlun’s Chnptd hotter if it hud done nothing else than to send them their old pV.tor for another year. The Rev.

Since the Southern absorbed the South Carolina and Georgia road there has been considerable specula tion as to the disposition of the Ohio River and Charleston railroad, ' which was owned by the South Caro lina and Georgia. At thetime of the j sale it was b.-Moved that provisions were made for the Atlantic Coast Line to take this property anil oper ate it for the Southern. The Manufacturers’ Record is au thority for the following statement: “The latest report regarding the Ohio and River and Charleston rail road is to the effect that the company has decided to build it to a comu'o- , tion with the line in North Carolina, i The new mileage would ext( nd from !
