recognized by the general public. A mother will spend

many hours in the wearisome search of the most suit-

is often considered good enough. We believe that tho

preparation of tinctures and extracts, on whose pu-

What They Say About....
Harris Lithia Water:
Mr. J. T. Harris:
Dear Sir—I have found the use of the water
from your l.lthia Spring In South Carolina so
efficacious In the case of a young lady pa
tient of mine, who has suffered for years with
TJIal>ete9, with all Its different attendants,
that I want to add my testiinonal to the
many you already have. The patient I refer
to has used the water freely at home for
scarcely a month now, with more beneficial
results than from months spent at different
lithia springs in different parts of the United
States, besides long continued use of the
same waters at home. Other of rny patients
and friends are now using the same with (test
results. I cordially recommend it to all suff
ering from similar diseases.
Very respectfully yours,
Thomas S. Poweix, M. I).
Pres. Southern Medical College,
Atlanta, Oa,
“The Harris Ulthla Water Is, In my opinion,
unexcelled for those ailments requiring the
salts it contains.
“Theo. Lamb, M. I)..

of Medicine, Medical Department, Univer
sity of Georgia.''
AfiHEVir.r.E, N. C., April 24, 1S!H.-An ex
tended clinical use of the Harris Lithia Wa
ter prompts me to the statement that T re
gard It as one of the best, if not the best,
Lithia Water known to the profession. In the
condition of Pliosphatlc Urine, Its action is
marvelous. Its use in the Kheumatic and
Gouty diseases afford mo more comfort than
either the Buffalo or Londonderry Waters.
Very truly yours,
John Hey William, M. D.
Baltimore. M. D., June24,1896.
J. T. Harris, Esq., Harris Spring, 8. C:
Dear Sir—I have been using Harris Lithia
Water for some time, and I will say to you
that It is my opinion that the Harris Lithia
Water is by far the best Lithia Water that 1
have ever used, and that It liqs done mo a
great deal of good, and 1 think it a most val
uable remedy.

WARD’S MINSTRELS.
PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS.
One of the Hc.t Mln.trel Shown ou th®
Uouil thin Neitnoii.
Harry Ward’s Magnificent Min
strels, which will hold the boards at
the Opera House next Thursday
night, is this season one of the largest
minstrel organizations ou the road.
The company is a very popular one
and is composed of artists of reputa
tion and talent. Mr. Ward, by keep
ing faith with the public, has made
for himself a reputation second to
none in the amusement world. The
sterling worth of his attractions is
proven by constant prosperity enjoy
ed by his company and the express
ions of pleasure on the part of those
who witness his performances. The
company this season number forty,
and never in the history of minstrelsy
has ever there been such an organi
zation of star artists under one man
agement. The long list of artists who
go to make up the combination con
tain the names of many who have
attained an international reputation,
such famous artists as Harry Ward,
the next president of minstrelsy;
Messrs. Decker and Rasch, the Great
Newton, Muller and Yonder, Briggs,
the Champion Trick Cyclist ol the
world, Boam and Wilbur Musical
Comedians, and the Vocalist flepart-
ment is made up of such well known
soloists as Mr. Thomas Crockett,
Harry Sylvester, Willie James,
Chauncy Holland and the celebrated
Pan American exposition Quartette,
and Master Hearsey, from the
Cathedral Montreal. A grand noon
day parade will be given the day of
the performance, in which the entire
company appear, and is said to be
the grandest parade ever seen on our
street with a traveling organization.
The sale of seats opened yesterday
at Gaines’ furniture store and it would
be a wise move to secure seats in
plenty of time, as the advance sales for
attractions of this Rind are generally
very large. The local management has
the assurance of Mr. Murphy the
advanced agent that this performance
is strictly high grade and free from
anything that would olfeud the most
delicate and refined lady or gentle
man.
If the amusement lovers of Gaff
ney desire a treat they should see
Harry Ward’s Magnificent Minstrels
Thursday night.
llonthl Square Opera Company
The amusement loving people of
Gaffney have a treat in store for them
on Wednesday evening November
28th when the Herald Square Opera
Company will present, "La Mas-
cott.” The Ledger has only one
manner in which to judge a show and
that is to judge it by what others
say of it. This opera company is
playing in such cities as Raleigh,
Wilmington and Charlotte, all of
which are pretty good size villages,
and the newspapers of these towns
are, as a rule, very good judges of a
show. The following notice is from
the Raleigh Post, one of the fore
most daily papers in North Carolina,
and The Ledger is willing to say on
their authority that the show will be
as good of its kind as will visit Gaff
ney this season. The Post Says:
"La Mascotte,” by the Herald
Square Opera Co., of New York, was
presented to a large and enthusiastic
audience, which manifested its ap
preciation of the work of the com
pany unmistakably.
"The company is an unusually
good one aud the version last night
differed from that of others in many
minor particulars which added snap
and genuine comedy to the production.
There are several particularly fine
voices in this company. Mr. Harry
Nelson possesses a magnificent tenor
of unusual volume and sweetness and
in the character of Prince Frederic
acquitted himself well.
“Mr. Thos. Callahan is a bang up
Prince Lorenzo with a fine voice,
while Tom Whyte is one of the most
comical Roccos seen in Raleigh.
"Etta Stetson as ‘Beilina’ gave a
most charming presentation of the
character and sang sweetly as well.
She was well supported by Misses
Scott and Sanford, Mr. Robert Kane
as ‘Pippo’ has a clear conception of
the role and made many friends with
the audience from the start. His
voice is a good one. The chorus was
made up of young and pretty girls
who can sing. It was a grand pro
duction.”
The above company will present
"La Mascotte,” at the opera house
Wednesday night, Nov. 28th. The
company numbers 25 artists, sweet
singers, new and bright costumes.
Larger and better than ever before.
Secure reserved seats at A. B. Gaines’
furniture store.
Remember that this is an
opera troupe, not a melodrama or
farce comedy or tragedy, but an
opera—a story In song, a play set to
music. It Is a comic drama, of
which music forms an essential part,
a comic drama mostly sung, consist
ing of recitative, arias, choruses,
duets, trios, etc. We do not desire
anyone to patronize this performance
under a wrong impression so we have
endeavored to explain what the play
will be. Now ao not spend your
money with the idea that tills show
is anything like "A Trip to Tramp-
town” or “Town Topics,” for there
is not the least connection between
them.

Prof. Brown requests us to an
nounce that the regular weekly re

house Thursday night without miss
