STONE in the BLADDER Quickly Dis«olved and Removed With out Danger by Warner’a Safe Cure. Stone in the bladder is one form of kidney trouble—a nign that the kidneys are so dis eased that they are no longer aide to reinovt all the urio acid and other }x>ibonous \va*>U matters out of the blood. The uric acid accumulates in the bladder and forms into little luini>s or stones, which pass away from time to time in the ur ine. If they are at ail largo they seriously injure the deluate tissues of the urinary organs, causing inflammation, great weakness, and not infre quently convulsions nnd death. When the gravel becomes so large that it cannot be passed the uric acid tmcks up j through the blood, poisons the whole syitem, and the sufferer dies in terrible agony. There is'only one way to prevent uric acid poison, and this is to dissolve the gravel with- ou'. delay and get it out of the system by tak ing Warner’s Kufe Cure, the only medicine that can be taken with safety.

A SERIOUS MISTAKE IN ACTS- Died Thursday at the Home of His Daughter at North. Tho following special fron. Orange burg to the Columbia State of the 24th inst., will be of Interest to many Gaffney people: “Prof. John R. Mack, co-president of the Orangeburg Collegiate insti tute, died yesterday afternoon at the home of his daughter, Mrs. E. C. Johnson, at North, where he had gone on a short visit. "Prof. Mack, who was one of the best known educators in the State, was born In this county 52 years ago, but since attaining manhood has been identified with school work in various sections of the State. He was in charge of the Aiken High school for years, and it was while at Aiken that he was elected president of Limestone College at Gaffney. There his admin istration was highly successful ami resulted in his being called to the presidency of the Brownsville Female College, a well-known Tennessee col lege. However, his health failed and he‘returned to his old home and af ter one or two years of rest became identified with the Orangeburg Colle giate institute, first as one of the teachers, ami then as co-president with Prof. W. I. Peterson. “It has been known for months that Prof. Mack’s condition was past cure, but his death was nevertheless unex pected at this time. “Prof. Mack was a Baptist and the funeral services were held at Bull Swamp Baptist church, about 14 miles above the city, this afternoon. The services were conducted by Revs. E. M. Lightfoot and B. F. Foreman, of Orangeburg, and \ver ( e attended by the faculty and schd(Iars of the Or angeburg Collegiate institute and by many friends from the city. “Prof. Macck leaves a wife and two daughters, one of whom is Mrs. E. C. Johnson, of North.” Prof. Mack had ftiany warm friends in Gaffney who regret to hear of his death, and who extend heartiest sym pathy to the family in their great loss. FOR Up-to-Date Job Print ing, cal! at thr LEDGER Office. Gaffney, S. C. The Students’ Recital. On Friday evening, March 24, was given the recital by the advanced stu dents of the music department of Limestone College. About twenty members of instrumental and vocal were given, showing fine train ing each had received at the hands of their instructor. The piano compositions were per fectly rendered with a fine execution and pedaling. Both delicacy and volumne were ob tained from the Chickering concert grand piano with the greatest ease. The vocal numbers were especially pleasing, showing voices possessing splendid volume with no forcing or vocal tricks. Such voice teachers are rare. Such methods as Mr. and Mrs. Scherubel and tho assistants, Misses Steedly and Dew, employ in their teaching seem to bring rapid and stay ing results, which can be said of but little teaching that is done now-a-day. Mrs. Gooding, who assisted with a violin obligato, played with beautiful tone and much expression. Conflicting Dates for Courts In Sev enth Circucit. A mistake In the acts recently passed by the legislature has been discovered by the code commissioner, Mr Wm. Elliott, Jr. In a judicial cir cuit act the fall term of court for Cherokee and Spartanburg is held on the same date, the fourth week in October. We are informed that the act was properly drawn, and that the error was due to an amendment offered by Mr. Nash, of Spartanburg. Mr. Nash does not attempt to shift the respon sibility of his error and the Spartan burg bar has magnanimously agreed that there shall be no court in that county, thus giving .w r ay to Cherokee. —j Overcoming Difficulties. Two of Gaffney’s young people, be ing very fond of each other and fail ing to obtain the approval of the girl’s parents, made a trip to Chero kee Falls recently for the purpose of being made husband and wife. After they arrived at “the Falls” the proper arrangements were made and quite a number of neighbors as sembled for the purpose of witness ing the ceremony. Everything was in readiness and everyone present felt the usual strange and peculiar feeling that is always present at a wedding, when, lo, and behold, the magistrate an nounced that owing to the fact that the girl was under age he felt that he would be laying himself liable should he proceed with the ceremony. When the magistrate thus threw cold water upon the plans of the young lovers this reporter felt that a nice piece of news had been destroyed. Like all who w-ere present, w r e felc sorry for the couple and wondered what the final outcome would he. Well, the final outcome, as near as we can ascertain, is this: The young man was nothing daunted by the re fusal of the magistrate to marry them. He had won the pilferer of his heart and the fact that the girl’s father and the magistrate were against him did not swerve him from his purpose They w-ent to Blacksburg and were married at that place. After return ing to Gaffney with his happy young bride of fourteen summers, it Is' re ported that the groom signed a con tract to work two years for the girl’s father without compensation. Verily, love will suffer persecution and over come obstacles! Do You Know Him? (Marie M. Remstreet.) He seldom is handsome or natty. And has none of the charms of the dude, Is often more abstracted than chatty, And sometimes unbearably rude. He courts us, then slights us and grieves us As much as he possibly can; He kisses us, loves us and leaves us— This perfidous newspaper man! Our mothers wont have him come calling, He’s no earthly good as a “catch;” His morals, they say, are appalling, His fiances usually match. He’s rollicking, reckless, uncaring; Lives but for the hour, the day; He’s dangerous, dubious, daring,— Not fit for a husband, they say. But somehow we girls are forgiving— Perhaps he but needs us the more Because he goes wrong In the living And knows the old world to its core. So we pass up the dude and the schemer, Who lead In society’s van, And cherish the thinker and dreamer Enshrined in the newspaper man. immam If I Were You. Marriage at King's Creek. Kings Creek, March 23.—Married at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. H. Mitchell, Wed nesday the 22nd. at 4 o’clock P. M.,' by Rev. J. L. Oats—Miss Made Belle Mitchell to Mr. Haskell H. White.! After the ceremony the bride and groom, with a few friends, drove over i to Mr. A. C. White’s, father of the! groom, where a splendid supper had been prepared. We wish for the young couple a long and happy life. X. When a man pays a doctor for ad vice and the doctor prescribes flax seed and mustard plasters the man feels that he has been created.
