To add to this unusual occur- ance was the color—one bein** white, one black and the other yellow. Mr. L. C. Warmoth, of Gaffney, spent Sunday with his mother. Mr. J. R.

A. Nance and Rhoda Re d. of Union, visited friends and relatives here Tuesday. A writer in the Union Times telling thp men how to woo the women of their choice winds up by stating that it is the sensible women he is sneak ing of for he doesn’t “give a darn" how the silly are won. But I want to ask- how many men are there who were ever known to woo and win a real sensible woman? Very few in deed. Its most always the sillv gig- ling or butterfly of a woman that at tracts them. Those that niak« them selves conspicious on the street and around the depot are just “it” while thp quiet, sensible, stay at-home girls go unnoticed. And isn’t it annulling how many of these silly, senseless marriages are being contracted. That marriage is essential to hapniness we do not deny, but it must b< a sen- sible marriage. When contemplating matrimony one should not be blinded )>•' a passion that will soon pass away when one finds that thp object sought and won is not gold but dross. No two people ea" be hapiiy together whose natures are different How can a ouiet. home-loving man. one who loves his books and napers of evenings’be happy with a silly woman who cares for nothing but pleasure and dress. But if after a long ac quaintance two people find that their lives will blend harmoniously and that they really and truly love each othe” then they should ma£rv and as the novelest sav “live happily ever after.” Mr. Editor, as we have "the list of 300 spellings" endorsed by President Roosevent before us you need not be surprized—that’s one—at some of our spelling for we shall exorcize—that’s another—our mind to learn them al- tho—another—we will make an ack nowledgment—another—we are somewhat deprest—another—at. the ammount of labor—another—involved.

There is nothing more distressing than an itching, burn ing skin 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 ‘n the blood. The most such treatment can be expected to do is, allay the itching and burning and cover up the trouble for awhile, but 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 and forms a crust, and the itching 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 dry, 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 producing intense itching. 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 diseases are due to the same cause—burning acids and humors in the blood, and until this vital fluid is cleansed and made pure they will 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 thrit the skin, instead of being blistered and burned by the fiery fluids, is nourished by a su pply of cooling, 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 permanently. S. S. S. does not leave the least par ticle of the poison for future outbreaks, but entirely rids 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 through 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.
