A PRETTY CEREMONY. Mr. Fltzhugb Hopper ami Miss Maymo Cox Clliikscalcs United In Marriage Wed nesday Afternoon In the Helton Baptist Church—A Popular Young Couple. On Wednesday afternoon, Nov. 21st., Mr. Fitzhugh Lee Hopper, a popular Gaffney boy,and Miss Mayme Cox Ciinkscales, of Belton, were united in marriage in the First Bap tist church at Belton. The following account of the nup tial ceremony is from the Belton cor respondent of the Columbia State : “The Belton Baptist church was once more made beautiful and again we had the pleaure of witnessing a very pretty wedding. The orincipals were Miss Mamie Cox Ciinkscales. of Belton, and Mr. Fitzhugh Lee Hop per, of Gaffney. Promptly at 2‘30 p. m., marching to the sweet strains of Mendelssohn’s wedding march, Messrs. W. C. Rice and J. Cliff Green, ushers, proceeded up each aisle to|the altar followed by J. A. Horton and Miss Maggie Ciink scales. W. H. Cobb, Jr., and Miss Leda Geer, F. M. Cox and Miss Fan nie Hopper, marching up singly each aisle and meeting at the altar. Then came the lovely bride in all her maiden beauty, covered with the blushes of youth, leaning upon the arm of the maid of honor, and carry ing a beautiful bouquet of white chrysanthemums tied with white satin ribbon streaming to the floor. The maid of honor, Miss Inez Camp bell, carrying a large bouquet of golden chrysanthemums, was well fitted to carry out the part selected for her. The groom, leaning upon the strong arm of the best man, Mr. W. E Greer, entered at the same time of the bride, and marching up the op posite aisle, met her at the altar, and in a short but very beautiful cere mony the two were pronounced man and wife by the Rev. E. J. Forrester, D. D., of Greenwood. The decorations of chrysanthe mums, palms, ferns, etc., were ex ceedingly beautiful. The music made by Miss Clara Osborne, of Anderson, at the organ, and Mr. Rex Rice, of this place, with the violin, was exceedingly sweet. Mr. and Mrs. Hopper will shortly return and make their home here. Tuesday night a reception was given to the near relatives and bridal party by the bride’s parents.” Mr. Hopper is a son of Mrs. Dora Hopper, of this city, and has lived here nearly all his life. He went to Belton during the summer to engage in the drug business and has since resided at that place. He is a very popular young man with our people hero and he has that peculiar charm of person and manner about him that readily wins the friendship and admiration of his associates and bis acquaintances. He is quick, careful and accurate in business and occupies a high place in the esteem and con- itdenee of his employers. The bride is from opp of the oldest and most prominent families in the State and is conspicuous among South Carolina’s beautiful, highly cultured and refined young women. Mr. Hopper is to be congratulated for the excellent judgment he displayed in plucking such a rare and lovely flower for the vase of his love and devotion to adorn and sweeten his home and his life. The friends of this popular couple aro legion, and one and all wish for them all the happiness that things of this world have power to give. Mr. and Mrs. Hopper a?e in the city visiting the relatives and friends of the groom. They will return to Belton Sunday, which place will bo their future home. llotuie Moving.

RHEUMATISM Is due loan acid poison which gains access to the blood through failure of Lh^projar organ; to carry off uud keep the system clear of all morbid, effete matter. This poison Distorts Muscles, Shatters Nerves, stlllens Joints. through the general circulation is deposited in the joints, muscles and nerves, causing the most intense pain. Rheumatism may attack with such suddenness ami severity as to make within a few days a healthy, active person helpless and bed-ridden, with distorted limbs and shattered nerves; or it may l»e slow in developing, with slight wandering pains, just severe enough to make one feel uncomfortable ; the ten dency in such cases is to grow worse, and finally become chronic. Like other blood diseases, Rheumatism is often inherited, and exposure to damp or cold, want of proper food, insufficient clothing, or anything calculated to impair the health, will frequently cause it to develop in early life, but more often not until middle age or later. In whatever form, whether acute or chronic, fnllTritelb Rheumatism is Strictiy a Blood Disease, and no liniment or other external treatment can reach the trouble. Neither do the preparations of potash and mercury, and the various mineral salts, which the doctors always prescribe, cure Rheumatism, but ruin the digestion and break down the constitution. A remedy which builds up the general health and at the same time rids the system of the poison is the only safe and certain cure for Rheumatism. S. S. S., made of roots, herbs and barks of wonderful solvent, purifying properties, attacks the disease in the right way, and In the right place—the blood —and quickly neutralizes the acid and dissolves all poisonous deposits, stimulates and reinforces the overworked, worn-out organs, and clears the system of all unhealthy accumulations. S. S. S. cures permanently and thoroughly, and keeps the blood in a pure, healthy state. Mr. J. O. Malley, 123 W. 15th Street, Indians polls, Ind., for eighteen months was so terribly afflicted with Rheumatism he was unable to feed or dress himself. Doctors said his ease was hoiMdess. He had tried fifty-two prescriptions that friends had given him, without the slightest relief. A few bottles of S. S. S. cured him permanently, and he has never had a rheumatic pain since. This was five yeais ago. • We will send free our special book on Rheumatism, which should l>e in the hands of every sufferer from this torturing disease. Our physicians have made blood and skin diseases a life study, and will give you any information or advice wanted, so write them fully and freely about your case. We make no charge whatever for this service. Address, SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., Atlanta, Ga. Carroll & Carpenter.
