is in a truthful man telling a lie.
The effects are the same. In one
instance the truth is not believed

Constant motion jars the kidneys
which are kept in place in the body
by delicate attachments. This is the
reason that travelers, trainmen, street
car men, teamsters and all who drive
very much suffer from kidney disease
in some form. Foley’s Kidney (.lure
strengthens the kidneys and cures all
forms ol kidney and bladder disease.
Geo. H. Hausar, locomotive engineer,
Lima, Ohio . writes, “Constant vibra
tion of the engine caused me a great
deal of trouble with my kidneys, and
I got no relief until 1 used Foley’s
Kidney Cure.’’ Cherokee Drug Co.
Mr. Jones may be all that his
friends claim for him but in politics
it is the man who can win that counts.
No Loam of Time.
I have sold Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for
years, and would rather be out of
coffee and sugar than it. I sold five
bottles of it yesterday to threshers
that could go no farther, and they are
at work again this morining.—H. R.
Phelps Plymouth, Oklahoma. As will
be seen by the above the threshers
were able co keep on with their work
without losing a single day’s time.
You should keep a bottle of this
Remedy in your home. For sale by

There are a number of men who are
trying to travel on the reputation

•A Chattanooga Druggist’* Statement.
Robt. J. Miller, proprietor of the
Read House Drug Store of Chatta
nooga, Tenn., writes: “There is
more merit in Foley’s Honey aud
Tar than in any other cough syrup.
The calls for it multiply wonderfully
and we sell more of it than all other
cough syrups combined. Cherokee
Drug Company.
It is well to be slow to follow the
advice of a man who does not set the
example.

WOMEN AND SOCIETY.
May Day Picnic.
Yesterday morning was fair and
bright and warm with just a sem
blance of a breeze from the northeast
to make it bracing and a morning to
be proud of for a picnic day. And
not many hours of it had passed be
fore a large number of our people
were on the road to Goat Island,
Cherokee’s ideal place for a day’s
outing.
The party was composed of the old.
the middle aged, the young aud the
innocent, are thoroughly representa
tive of Gaffney.
From each home represented in
this party went well filled bas-k^ts of
viands that would have been a credit
to Roosevelt’s table when Priuce
Henry dined with him.
The committee of arrangements
was composed of Mr. Waddy Round-
tree, Miss Ida Lemmons, Mr Joe
Camp, Miss Alie Petty, Mr. Logan
Warmouth and Miss Isabell Blanton.
The chaperones were Mrs. Champ
Davis and Mrs. J. H. Lipscomb. It
was not long before Goat Inland was
reached and all amusements usual on
such occasions were entered into with
zest.
After a a while the dinner hour ar
rived when the good things were suit
ably spread and its consumption be
gan, the young men and ladies msk
mg it their special duties to see that
every one was served. After dinner
the general good time was continued
for some hours when all returned to
their homes tired, but feeling good
because of the joys the day had fur
nished.
The Ledger gratefully acknowledges
the receipt of an invitation to this
picnic and congratulates all on the
real pleasure furnished.
There have been two services at the
Buford Street Methodist church every
day this week. The preaching has
been done by Rev. H. F. Chreitzberg,
of Gastonia, N. C., and large congre
gations have attended every service.
Mr. Chreitzberg is an able an ear
nest preacher, and his great ability
and earnestness have been impressed
on his bearers at every service. In
terest in the meeting is increasing at
every service and can result only in
doing much good to the church and
community.
The ministers in the city of all de
nominations are enthusiastic workers
in the meeting which evinces the
brotherly love which exists among
the Christians.

The wheels of society give certain
clicks three times a year and the
whole world turns its attention to the
bride, in October, just after Easter
and June, the last month she divides
honors-with the pretty girl graduate;
which is the more popular it is hard
to say, but it is a fact that the grad
uates are more numerous. What is
more picturesque than the sweet girl
graduate, in u gown of dotted Swiss
lace and ribbons, with a high efftet? A
deep printed collar is the latest fancy
for the high-necked blouse, the revets
are adjustable, made complete in
themselves, then tacked in place with
a few firrrt stitches. Any soft belt
may be worn by the girl graduate,
but the one ending in the back with
long ends is particularly girlish and
appropriate. Her hair should be
dressed with natural flowers caught
lightly in its coils. Her jewelry
should be a dainty ring or a single
pin.

A ThoiiRlit of the 1’HHt.
When I think of the old people
that I once knew my mind leads me
bai k to childhood days when “hog
and hominy” was plentiful and vou
could hear an old time spinning
wheel for a distance. That was a
glorious time.
Where are those good old people
now? They have crossed the river of
death; they have gone to that glory
world; while many have fathers or
mothers whom they don’t remember
1 ever seeing. Toe writer is one of
i that number; but. my good friend-,
the day is fast approaching when ve
will be called to pay the debt thet
they have paid.
I have heard people say that they
were ready to go, that they did not
mind death ; but I, for one, dread the
sting of death. Even Christ himsi-ll'
prayed to the Father that if it were
possible the cup might be removed.
We like to sing and hear singing;
but when we meet with fathers,
mothers, brothers, sisters, and all the j
good people up in heaven, we will be
forever singing praises to His high
and holy name. Oh, what a grand
and glorious meeting that will be!
