I, ■ I — RHEUMATISM CAN NOT BE RUBBED AWAY When the joints are sore and swollen, and the muscles throbbing with tha pain of Rheumatism, relief must be had at once, and it is natural to rub the affected parts with liniments, oils, etc. This treatment does good in a way, by temporarily relieving the pain and reducing the inflammation, but has no effect on the disease itself, because Rheumatism is more than skin deep ; it Is in the blood and cannot be rubbed away. Rheumatism is brought on by indigestion, weak kidneys, poor bowel action, stomach troubles and a gen eral sluggish condition of the system The refuse and waste matters, which •hould be carried off through the nat- POLICE AND SOLDIERS HELD NEGROES IT BUY Situation In Chattanooga Re ported Calmer. excitment still vcry tense Ural avenues of bodily waste, are left to sour and form uric acid and other irritating poisons which are ab sorbed by the blood, making it thin, weak and acrid. Then instead of nourishing the different nerves, mus cles, joints and tissues it fills them with poison to produce the aches, pains and other disagreeable symp toms of the disease. Rheumatism is usually worse in Winter for the reason that cold and dampness are exciting causes. The nerves become excited and sting with pain, the mus cles are sore and drawn, the joints swollen and stiff and the sufferer lives in intense agony; and if the disease is not checked it often leaves its victims helpless cripples for life. Rheumatism cannot be rubbed away but it can be driven from the blood by S. S. S. Being a perfect blood purifier this great remedy soon pro duces a complete change in the en tire circulation ; the thin, acrid blood is made pure and rich, and as it goes through the body nourishes and soothes the irritated nerves, eases the throb- bing muscles, and dissolves and carries out of the system the irritating particles in the joints which are keeping up the pain and inflammation.

I had it in my knees, legs and ankles, and any one who has ever had Rheumatism knows how excruciating the pain is and how it interleres with one at work.

United States Secret Service Men Are Expected Here Who Will Make an Investigation of the Lynching of the Negro Johnson. Chattanooga, Tenn., March 21.— Guard details from Companies A, K and M, of the Third infantry, Tennes see national guard, remained at their armory all night after the command had been relieved, as did some of the men of th?

At the Ross-Meehan foundry a white man named Rogers shot a negro on I Wednesday morning. The incident end- I ed with his arrest and no further trou ble is looked lor. $100,000,000.00 The State of South Carolina is sending off the approximate annual amount of $3,000,000 in Life Insurance Premiums. That amount, less a small proportion, goes to the North and West each year for investment, and in twenty years; including interest, will amount to something like $ 100,000,000.00 This should not be. Keep your premiums at home for the development of your own State. The best way to do this is to have your life insured in the Southeastern Life Insurance Company Of Spartanpurg. S. C. Mch 14-iyr. ELLIOTT ESTES. Jr., General Agent m • Attorney Thomas Makes Statement. New York, March 21.—W. G. M. Thomas, of Chattanooga, Tenn., who is in town and who was of the counsel assigned by the court to defend Ed Johnson, lynched in Chattanooga on Monday night, said Tuesday night: “The crime was a most atrocious one, and there was great indignation. Three days later Johnson was arrest ed. The prisoner was convicted by one of the most intelligent juries I have ever known. “At ray suggestion the judge appoint ed three additional lawyers to go over the evidence for the purpose of deter mining whether an appeal should be taken. We six spent an entire after noon and until 12 o'clock at night go ing over the evidence. It was our unanimous opinion that no error had been committed upen which we might hope to get a reversal or a new trial. An appeal could mean nothing but de lay in the execution of the prisoner. We thought also that a delay might re suit In another assault upon the jail with chances of possible injury to other prisoners confined in it; for these reasons were advised against an ap peal. That end^d my active partici pation in the case. “There were times when I had doubts of the prisoner’s guilt. The evidence, however, was strong against him. The young woman when the pris oner was taken before her would not positively swear that he was the man. but she said she believed he was tie' man." France Makes Acceptance.

FOUrSKlDNEYCURE Makes Kidneys and Bladder Right •TOPS CARRIER WITH SHOTGUN Barksdale Bound Over for Interfering With Mail Carrier. Columbus, Ga„ March 21.—Hiram W. Barksdale, a prominent planter resid ing near Juniper, in Talbot county, was bound over to the United States court by Commissioner Brown on the charge of retarding a United States mail carrier, E. L. Nelson, in the dis charge of his duty. He made the bond, $200. Recently a rural mall route was es tablished between Juniper and Geneva and the route as laid out by the inspec tor went along a road through Barks dale’s farm. Barksdale piled bru h in the road in two places and tried to keep the carrier from using it. He claims that the road was forcibly open ed without his consent and the matter is now up for adjudication before the ordinary of Talbot county. Barksdale says that when he closed the road he formally notiiied the Unit ed States government. On the day oi tne carrier’s third trip over the road he was met by Barksdale, who was armed with a shotgun and who said that he would forcibly prevent him from using the road. I>arksdale»claims that the government is trying to con fiscate the property without paying him for it.

St. Petersburg, March 21.—General Kuroparkin’s last order of the day to the First Manchurian army, printed in the Rusky Invalid (the military organ). Tuesday is a remarkable exposure oi the causes of the Russian defeats, showing that they were due to lack of preparation, and equipment, and to the fact that there were no explosive shells for the mountain artillery, etc in the early stages of the war. He does not shirk his own responsi biiity as minister of war (before the war broke out), but points out that the causes of the defeats were deeper, namely, the morale of the troops, and of the officers, who did not display in itiative independence or enthusiasm, in spite of the iron nerves and heroic spirits of the soldiers. All this the general boldly announces is attributa hie to the oppression of bureaucratic rule during the last 50 years, which in the case of the officers, drove men of independence from the service, leav ing only worthless ones. He congratulates the troops on the advent of liberty and hope for the re generation of the people. FOLEY^HONEY^TAR •tops tlx* cotiglx exxd tammlm luaxge New Spring & Summer Goods At Low Prices.
