MR. HE'RBERT JOHNSON. RAW AS BEEF n FROM ECZEMA! No Torlure Et, 'ol to the Itching and Burning of This Fearful Disease. Not much Httention is often paid to tho first symptoms of Eczema, but it is not Iona before the little redness begins to itch nna burn. This is but the brginning, and will lead to suffering and torture almost unen durable. It is a common mistake to regard a roughness and redness of the skin as merely a local irritation; it is but an indica tion of a humor in the blood—of terrible Eczema—which is more than skin-deep, and can not be reached by local appli cations of ointments, salves, etc., applied to the surface. The disease itself, the real cause of the trouble, is in the blood, although all suffering is produced through the skin; the only way to reach the disease, therefore, is through the blood. Mr. Phil T. Jones, of Miiersville, Ind., writes: “I had Eczema thirty years, and after a great deal of treatment my leg was so raw and sore that it gave me constant pain. It finally broke into a running sore, and began to spread and grow worse. For the past five or six years I have suffered untold agony and had given up all hope of ever being free from the disease, as I have been treated by some of the best physicians and have taken many blood medicines, all in vain. With little faith left I began to take S. S. S., and it apparently made the Eczema worse, but I knew that this was the way the remedy got rid of the poison. Continuing 8. 8. S., the sore healed up entirely, the ^kin became clear and smooth, and I was cured perfectly.” Eczema is an obstinate disease and can not be cured by a remedy which is only a tonic. Swift’s Specific— S. e. S. FOR THE BLOOD —is superior to other blood remedies because it cures diseases which they oan not reach. It goes to the bottom—to the cause of the disease—and will cure the worst case of Eczema, no matter what other treatment has failed. It is the only blood remedy guaranteed to be free from potash, mercury or any other mineral, and never fails to cure Eczema, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison, Cancer, Tetter, Rheumatism. Open Sores, Ulcers, Boils, etc. ^ Insist upon S. S. S.; nothing can take its place. 9 Books on these diseases will be mailed free to any address by Swift Spe cific Company, Atlanta, Georgia. _ j The finest lot of yellow and white pine Just Received, a shipment of LOWNEY’S and RED SEAL CANDIES shingles ever in Gaffney.

As evidence of Cberokeean tnrift we see many loads of fodder and hey being hauled from the farms and sold to consumers in the city. Hr. Adolphus Gaffney presented us a few days ago with about one- third of what had been a soap stone pot which had been plowed up on his farm near the city. L. Baker has contracted with the Limestone Cotton Mill Company to superintend the construction of the mill and all its other buildings. This will assure first class work in every particular Cecil Sc Currv have the contract to build for Mr. 1). J. Holt a brick livery stable near his residence on Cherokee avenue. The building will be "»0 by 70 feet and will have all modern conveniences. The Victor Cotton Oil Mill closed down for the season some days ago, having exhausted its stock of seed. It ran day and night through the sea son, and we learn that the business has been very satisfactory to the management. L. Baker has the contract to build a two-story brick building for Mr. S. M. Littlejohn on his vacant lot next to J. R. Tolleson’s store on Limestone street. The first story will be fin ished 'n an up-to-date style for a store room, and the second story will be cut up into well arranged office apartments. A light ruin fluring Wednesday and a thunder storm at night stopped the plows in the county. But Cherokee farmers know their business and being frugal of their means and op portunities, will put the time in to good advantage, and move tho plows with renewed vigor when the ground gets right, The Gaffney Carpet Manufacturing Company is putting material on the ground to build a commodious office near the mill. President Bierck does not mind matte 3 when it comes to improvements, and knowing just what it takes for un office cf that kind, he will make his a model of con venience and a thing of beauty. Architect Hook,!of Charlotte North Carolina, has finished the plans of a house for Col. T. B. Butler, and they are now in the hands of builders some one of whom will soon take the contract. Co!. Butler will build on his beautiful lot corner of Limestone and Victoria avenues and his home will be ore of the handsomest resi dences in the city. HIS DREAM OF WEALTH. A "I'lutocratlc" Negro Gooh to the Chain Gaup- for Kuiinini; a ••Tigar.” Monday’s session was rather a tame one hut long before his honor called time Tuesday morning, the court room was crowded with an anxious crowd waiting for the proceedings to begin. A prominent colored gentle man whose every day boast was that he had plenty of money, and that his gold rimmed spectacles cost him a hundred dollars was the center of attraction. But for all his riches he said he didn’t think himself above other negroes who behaved them selves. His name was Will White. ILs expensive spectacles his. boasted wealth and his arMocratic restaurant, which he presided over in a manner becoming his wealth, brought in the crowd to see what would be the result of Will’s trial for running a “blind tiger.” Court was opened on time, the plutocratic Will was brought in. wiped his fine spectacles and laid them aside for the momentous occasion, whispered in the most ap proved style to his attorney, took a seat ami assumed an attitude becom* ing his wealth. The mayor then proceeded in regulation style and the testimony began pouring in so fast and furious against Will that his guilt was apparent to a!!. His attor ney, however, made a strong fight for him which greatly encouraged him. But things were too plain. The mayor decided against him and re manded him to jail to await a trial on a similar charge Wednesday. Wednesday morning Will was brought before his honor again, and again made a hard fight but it was no good, every thing was against him, and the plutocrat was a second time knocked out. His attorney gave notice of an appeal and his honor sentenced him to thirty days on the county chain-gang, or to pay a fine of one hundred dollars in each case, and the prisoner was remanded to jail. Will had not b<en in jail long be- for he concluded * that the whole proceedings against him was the re sult of a conspiracy to got some of his known wealth, and that, he would abandon the appenl, just work out his time and keep his money. It is thought he will be a coed bund. A few other cases for vagrancy, , beating trains, etc., were thfnf fliaposed of, all resulting in days or dollars. A kidney remedy that can be de pended on will be found in J'uickly Ash BrrjEus. It heals and strength ens. Bold by Cherokee Drug Co. Tho llrillfiint 'It-nor Soloist of tin- .M union I Festival. Mr. Herbert Johnson, of Boston, the first tenor of the famous Buggies Street church male quartette, who has been engaged as the tenor soloist for the coming Music Festival, is considered one of the greatest solo tenors in America. His singing al ways gives the greatest satisfaction and he is invariably a favorite with the audience. The following are a few notices from some of the leading newspapers in regard to his work: “In the performance Mr. Herbert Johnson easily led, being calm and sustained in style, clear in speech and both dignified and beautiful in body and quality of tone.”—Boston Courier. “The soloists were all cordially re ceived. Herbert Johnson is one of the finest tenors ever heard in Rochester. His voice is beautifully even, clear, flexible, of great range, unvarying in quality and used with consummate art. Mr. Johnson sings with abso lute ease, i’ossessed of a superb stage presence, his very personality seems to blend with and become a part of the music he sings. In his solo and its familiar encore, “8ally in Our Alley,” he was equally pleas ing, dignifying the quaint little bal lad into almost the quality of an aria by his exquisite method and faultless style. In the opening strains of the magnificent quartette from “Rigoletto” his voice rang out clear and sweet, and not once during the evening did ho strain for a note or sing with the slightest manifesta tion of effort. Mr. Johnson’s singing is a delight.”—Rochester Journal. “Mr. Herbert Johnson has a tenor voice sympathetic in quality and especially rich and full in the upper register, and he sang Ids recitative and aria from “The Messiah” last evening with telling effect ”—Wash ington Post. “Memorial church was crowded last evening to listen to Mr Herbert Johnson’s finely trained voice. As a ballad singer he stands pre-eminently at the head.”—Lynn Bee. “Much of the interest of the evening centered in the appear ance of Mr. Herbert Johnson, in connection with oratorio work, for he has been looked upon by those best acquainted witli his abilities as a coming leader in this class of con cert work. His success was. there fore, particularly gratifying, espec ially a* it was of the most pronounced character, his singing of the aria “The Enemy .Said,” calling out a grand demonstration in his honor, ho being twice recalk-d to bow his thank.-. He baa a \oice of rare beauty for such work; lie uses it with consummate skill and his clear enunciation, elegant phrasing, and free and artistic delivery fullv justify the brightest hopes for his future.”— Boston Herald. The Eminent Kidney and Bladder Speciaiiste rr The Discoverer of Swamp-Root at Work in Bis Laboratory. There is a disease prevailing in this country most dangerous becauuc 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 Br.ght’s Disease, the worst form cf 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- Root and its wonderful cures. Address Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.
