SKIN DISEASES ACM7 TETTF p , E C 2 L m . Personal Paragraphs Concerning Pop ular People and Short Item* of that Section. Wllklnsvllle, May 28.—We doff our hat and make obeisance to the edition of tne Charlotte New* and Times De mocrat in which the Mecklenburg DecBaration of Independence has such a superb “write up." It Is a fifty-page publicaiton in which every word is truly and absolutely Ameri can to the case. The following clip ping from the editorial columns we reproduce as an evidecce of this sertion: “There is a new significance In the celebration this week. For the first time in the history of this county the national government is participating In the celebration. We have with us cavalry and infantry from the govern- n’^nt camps, .also the Marine Band, an' 1 it is an honor to entertain them. “There is* likewise great signifi cance in the pageant of national col ors, sent to us by the government, for Vhe first time. Time has ameliorated the last suggestion ot sectional ani mosity. and today w e begin in this city the celebartion of an event, which, while being one of national concern, has never until this good year been commemorated by the government as such. "While we should fee] a greater pride in the celebration than any other section because it was our fathers who formulated and signed it. still the significance of the document and the signing of the same is of na tional purport. “The government is making up for lost time. There is, with us today, no Mason and Dixon line/ no north and south. We are fellow country men, ready to shake hands over the memories of the past and join, with hearts full of pride, in the commemo ration of a deed which is without pa lallei in the historv of any country. “Our city is filling with people from every section of the State and United States and "e join the citi zens of this good city in extending to everyone, whether from north or south, east or west a welcome which is just as hearty as a sincere and hos- nitable people can extend. May th,e pleasure of everyone present be undi luted and may their visit among us be one filled with happiness and pleasant memories.” W P venerate the old North State not anv more for furnishing at least one- fifth of the men that made up Lee’a matchless and immaculate armv than for thp kindness shown us by the noble women of Greensboro and Jamestown when we needed help. They crowded the cars and hospitals with nourishments for the sick and wounded and even brought paper, pencils and envelops and wrote let ters for the soldiers who were unable to write for themselves. Besides, it was no uncommon thing for them, with their Bible# and hymn books, to gather around the bed of the sick and dying soldiers and hold religious ex ercises with them. At one of the reunions of Con federate veterans (Memphis) the survivors inarched under their State banner on which was inscribed, "First at Bethel, farthest at Gettysburg and last at Appromattox.” Without deprecating t3ie other Southern States and their people we are glad to have such neighbors as North Carolina and Georgia, when it is remembered (and the future his torian will yet record the fact) that to Gen. John B. Gordon more than any other man, (or ten men for that! we, north and south, owe a debt of gratitude for reconciling the business! interests of the two sections and nlacing them on more amicable terms. At the beginning of the war the south was made up of three distinct! classes, and we suupose the same! conditions existed at the north. Thej first were those who donned the minute button and proposed to drink all the blood that would be spilled i These got in apparently good humor when hostitilities opened at Fort Sumter. The second went at the fighting with all the vim. courage and power they could command and thousands of them were left dead on the battlefield or buried fn prison cemeteries. The third never got mad enough to fight until all danger of being kill ed had passed. The first and last classes mainly composed the critics who found fault with Jeff Davis, Gen. Lee and others for not manag ing things as they thought they ought to be. These mainly ar P the wings that flopped together to keep the county in an uproar even since. Had they joined in with the second or better class at the right time things might have went differently. To hear a man cursing and abusing the Rebels or Yankees don’t signify that he killed anv more of them than his less demonstrative neighbor did. What the county needs more than anything else. Is peace and pros perity. Not a peace that is the price of liberty, but one that insures it to the humble citizens. Such a sten has been taken by the citizens of North Carolina and those who joined them in the celebration of Mecklenburg Independence. Gen. Gordon says: “We were not fighting cowards. We left too many dead men on the battfleld to justify that conclusion.” We are told that matrimony has some advantages. A bachelor has to pav to attend lectures, but a married man usually gets -his at home for nothing. There is nothing we admire like a strong minded, substantial lurbnl wtomanj but «. man is very unlucky who marries one with just brains enough to know h P hasn’t any. You can’t Judge the contents of a wo man’s head by the size and shape of her hat. PSORIASIS, salt rh:usi. THE ITCHING WAS ALMOST UNBEARABLE. Dear Sirs—My body broke out with a rafi: or eruption which in spite of all eilorts to eure continued to get worse. The itching, especially at night, was s.mply terrible; it would almost disappear at times, only to worse than ever. I had tried many highly recommended prepa rations without benefit, and hearing of S. S. S. determined to give it a fafr trial, and was inexpressi ly delighted when a few bottles cured me entirely, removing every blemish and pimple from my body. I shall not fail to rec ommend S. tt. S. whenever an opportunity occurs to do so. Escondido. Cal. L. MARNO. There is nothing more distressing than an itching, burn ing shin disease, and upon the return of warm weather those who are afflicted with skin troubles find the symptoms appear ing and know that they will be tormented through the hot summer months. The blood is heated with humors and acrid matter, and as they are forced to the surface the skin seems to be on fire. The treatment of skin diseases with exter nal applications is all wrong, because they do not reach the trouble which is in the blood. The most such treatment can he expected to do is, allay the itching and burning and cover up the trouble for awhile, hut as soon as it is left off the disease returns. All food taken into the body contains, in some form, the elements necessary to sustain the different parts. One portion is used for the making of blood, another for muscle, one for bone, still another for fat, and so on. After these different properties are ex tracted from the food there still remains a portion that is useless, or waste matter, which is intended to be disposed of through the natural channels of bodily waste, the Liver, Kidneys and Bowels. At this season of the year, however, these organs become torpid, dull and sluggish, and fail to perform this duty, and these accumulations remain in the system and are absorbed by the blood to ferment and sour, producing burning acids and acrid humors. The blood cannot properly nourish the system while in this impure condition, and begins to throw off these acids through the pores and glands of the skin, producing Acne, Eczema, Tetter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum and skin diseases of every description. ECZEMA appears usually with a slight redness of the skin, followed by pustules from which there flows a sticky fluid that dries aud forms a crust, and the itehing is intense. It is generally on the back, breast, arms, legs and face, though other parts of the body may be afflicted. In TETTER the skin dries, cracks and bleeds, and is often very painful. The acid in the blood dries up the natural oils of the skin, causing a dr}’, feverish, hardened condition and giving it a leathery appearance. ACNE makes its appearance on the face in the form of pimples and black-heads, and is particularly disagreeable because of its unsightly appear ance, while PSORIASIS, a scaly disease, comes in patches on different parts of the body. One of the worst forms of skin disease is SALT RHEUM, It discharges a watery fluid, form ing sores and proclucing intense itcliing. The head and face are the parts usually affected, and sometimes the hair falls out and a mass of sores forms on the scalp. These and all skin diseasos are due to the same cause—burning acids and humors in the blood, and until t^js vital fluid is cleansed and made pure they wilh continue. The best treatment for all skin diseases is S. S. S,, a remedy that is purely vegetable, being made en tirely from roots, herbs and barks, and acts directly on the blood with a cleansing, healing effect. It’neutralizes the acids and purifies the blood so that the skin, instead of being blistered and burned by the fiery fluids, is nourished by a sir ply of coo-ling, healthy blood. It goes down into the circulation and forces out every particle of waste or foreign matter, builds up the blood and cures all skin diseases promptly and permane’ tly. S. S. S. docs not leave the least par ticle of the poison for future outbreaks, but entirely ri$s the blood of the cause for all skin diseases. S. S. S. tones up the system and regulates the Liver, Kidneys and Bowels so that they will carry off the natural waste and refuse, matter thibugh the proper channels, instead of leaving it to be absorbed by the blood. Nothing equals S. S. S. in the treatment of these troubles and for^building up the general health. Write for our treatise on skin diseases and any medical advice you wish.
