Fire and
Catarrh
If there is a fire in your cellar you put it out
with water. If the flames are in the kitchen
you use water again. If the fire is located in
the second story, water is the agent to sulxlue
it. If in the attic, water is still you/ salva
tion. Fire is fire, and no matter where lo
cated, water puts it out.
Your body is a house of many stories. It is
lined throughout with a marvelously sensitive
mucous membrane. Whenever this mem
brane becomes irritated or inflamed, the result
is Catarrh. When you catch cold, you have
Catarrh of the head, or eyes, or ear or nose.
Bronchitis is Catarrh of the bronchial tubes.
Pneumonia is Catarrh of the air cells of the
lungs. Consumption is Catarrh of the lungs.
Heartburu and Dyspepsia are Catarrh of tne
stomach. Kidney troubles are Catarrh of the
kidneys. Biliousness is Catarrh of the liver.
Deucorrhoea is Catarrh of the pelvic organs in
women. Almost everyone has Catarrh in
some form.
Pe-ru-na is the name of a medicine that
cures Catarrh in any pa r t of the body, the same
as water extinguishes fire in every part of a
house. It is a long tried specific for Catarrh
in every complication and phase. It restores
the delicate pink membrane that lines the in
side* of the body to a jicrfectly normal condi
tion, and thus makes the sick well. It is a
universal remedy for that universal disease—
Catarrh. It is the only true Catarrh cure
known to medical science. . —

The proceedings of the court of
General t'etrsiop-s the past three days
have been of an interesting nature
and the court room lias been crowded
ev»ry day with a throng of people.'
the great majority of whom were ■
present through curiosity. A num- j
her of ladies were present \V<.dru.s-|
day and yesterday to listen to the !
deiibi rations of tin; court and the

The State vs Louis Scruggs and
Lou Scruggs, assault and buttery;
guilty, pay aline each of $.)0 00 or
serve three months on public works
of county. Represented by Butler A
Osborne.
The State vs. Wuiker Meeks, for
the murder of William Price created
more interest than any other case.
Meeks is what in common parlance
is termed a colored sport. He and
Price, together with a number of
other colored gamblers, had gathered
on a Sabbath day on the track of the
Gaffney branch of the S. C. A G. E.
R. R., and engaged in a game called
“skin.” A dispute arose between
Price and Meeks, the latter claiming
that the former had cheated him,
and it finally ended in Meeks shoot
ing Price. A very able plea of self
defence was set up by Messrs. But
ler Osborne and E. A. Trescott.
Judge Aldrich was most impartial in
his charge* to the* jury, taking occa
sion to compliment Messrs. Butler A-
Osborne and Holieitor Henry in the
very able manner in which tiu-y bad
presented both sides of the case. Af
ter a deliberation of four hours and
twenty-four minutes, the jury
brought in a verdict of guilty with a
recommendation to the mercy of the
court. Judge- Aldrich in a most
impressive manner sentenced the
prisoner to the penitentiary for life.
A great deal of the time of the
court was consumed yesterday in se
lecting a jury for the James Black
wood ca i*. A jury was secured after
c in-idt rahle hard work and the case
is being heard today.

There is a disease prevailing In this
country most dangerous because so decep
tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by
it—heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure
or apoplexy are often the result of kidney
disease. If kidney trouble is allowed to ad
vance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack
the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Then the richness of the blood—the albumen
—leaks out and the sufferer has Bright’s
Disease, the v/orst form of kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp>Root the new dis
covery is the true specific for kidney, bladder
and urinary troubles. It has cured thousands
of apparently hopeless cases, after all other
efforts have failed. At druggists in fifty-cent
and dollar sizes. A sample bottle sent free
by mail, also a book telling about Swamp-
