Men Past Sixty in Danger.
More than half of mankind over
sixty years of age suffer from kid
ney and bladder disorders, usually
enlargement of prostate glands. This
is both painful and dangerous, and
Foley’s Kidney Cure should be taken
at the first sign of danger, as it cor
rects irregularities and has cured
many old men of this disease. Mr.
Rodney Burnett, Rockport, Mo.,
writes: “I suffered with enlarged

The prevailing pompadour color
idea is shown in the embroidery of
the plain net yokes used with some
of the chiffon broadcloth and satin
stripped voile gowns. At the very
top of the collars of these yokes there
often appears a tiny line of pale pink
silk against another of pale blue or
green and sometimes one of black.
The Fashionable Sleeve Fits Closer.
One thing is very evident from the
dress parade which v:an be seen here
that the fashionable sleeve is a good
deal tighter than it used to be. In
all coats of the really dressy type,
the sleeves possess a certain severi
ty which formerly belonged only to
the tailor made. They fit quite close
ly and are formed of overlapping
folds running around the arm, each
fold falling smoothly one above the
Silk Traveling Gowns.
Most of our fashionable women are
this summer wearing dark pongee or
tussah silk for travelling as these
materials are much cooler than wool
en and look equally as smart. The
majority of these frocks are made in
what is called the three-piece style
but It should be properly two-piece,
for skirt and waist are usually Joined
together in princess effect and worn
over a washable guimpe. To com
plete the costume is a coat of silk,
usually of the loose variety. Cream
and ecru laces, mulls and linens are
used in preferences^ to white for the
guimpes and they look smartest when
as simply made as possible.
The great vogue In belts is for
those of satin or silk with sash ends.
Every possible devise is used to
shorten the waist In the back and

Our boys went down to Wilkins
ville last Friday to cross bats with
the nine of that place. We did not
attend the game and cannot give a
full account of it. We are informed
that the game was a very interesting
one until about the seventh inning
when there arose a difficulty between
some of the boys and for some time
there was some confusion. We are
informed that the score stood nine to
twelve in favor of the Wilkinsville
team, hut according to baseball rules
the score was nine to nothing in favor
of our team, the boys say.
We went, to Gaffney last Thursday
and had the pleasure of hearing the
candidates of the State offices speak.
Every one made a good speech, but
the best speech that was made was
that of Mr. Cole Blease, for governor.
Rev. E. G. Ross, of Greer, began a
series of meeting at this place Sun
day night. He is assisted by Rev. C.
M. Teal, of Gaffney. Mr. Ross was
called to Greer Sunday afternoon to

that place. Mr. Teal preached Sun
day night to a Irage congregation.
The services are held in the morning
at 11:15 and in the evening at 8:15.
The meeting will continue during this
week and perhaps it will be carried
on longer.
Mr. and Mrs. Roland Parker, of
Gaffney, are visiting relatives here
this week.
Messrs. James and Walter Coyle,

Ararat last Sunday.
Miss Josle Phillips, of Gaffney,
came down and spent last week witn
Miss Nellie Hammett, of Wilkinsville,
and attended the series of meeting
at Ararat. Miss Josie met with a
painful accident while attending serv
ices at Arart Friday night. It is said
that some mean, low down scundrel
took the taps off Mr. Hammett’s
wagon and after servee was over and
they started home, the wheels ran off
