Rides Four Miles on Pilot of Engine Going Thirty Miles an Hour. (Cleveland Star.) As the southbound passenger train pulled out from the Southern Railway station here last Thursday night a singular incidert of romance and dar ing happened. The youth of color bid his little black Venus good-bye and told her thac he would return soon. She pleaded with her beaux de black not to forsake her and pleaded her undying love and yearning to be with him all the time. Evidently the youth had promised not to leave her and she declared that if he must go, she would follow him anywhere. But hi.- 1 title black Venus would not listen to his reasonings and pleaded for his consoling presence. Reluctantly he said g'ood-bye and as the train puffed away he was seated composedly in the “Jim Crow" department dream ing of his love he .bought he left be hind. But when the conductor made his round through the train, collecting the tickets, he discovered the negro girl seated on the rear platform steps, pursuing her lover who had promised never to leave her. There she was riding peacefully and con tented, for she knew her lover was “in the Jim Crow car ahead." The conductor politely invited her off the train at Patterson Springs and just as he did so the train left that station. In an incredibly short space of time she ran the full length of the train ahead and stood in the middle of the track. When the train approached she bounced with the lightness of a bird and fearlessness of a flagman on the pilot of the engine. Never dream ing of danger or accident she rode four miles on the pilot of the engine running thirty miles an hour. Hfer white frock waving in the breeze as the train pushed on staitled the en gineer and he stopped his train. The lady of color was discovered clinging to the irons of the pilot, but seem ingly not in the least frightened or disconcerted. Again she was invited to leave the trail, about one mile trom Earl station, a d the train pull ed on bearing her lo\er. Thereupon she hastened herself c'own the track as fast as she could in hot pursuit of the horrid train that was bearing her lover away. She reached Earl station before the train left again and boarded it the third time, this time on the trucks of the coach, the most perilous place of all. The train crew discovered her again and after a chase of several minutes about the station she was captured and taken into the coach. Happy now she w'as, for by her side sat the gen tleman of color who had caused her to risk her life in the most danger ous manner. The conductor said that never in the least did she appear frightened or unnerved. A message was sent to Blacksburg, asking Chief Duncan to receive her at the station. The engineer declared that in his twenty-three years of experience in that capacity he had never seen a fe male ride the pilot of an engine. In fact he said it was the most daring and blood curdling ride he had ever witnessed. WHEEZER OR SNEEZER? Buy a Home I With Rent Money! Camp Jefferies Veterans Meet.

If you wheeze or sneeze, hawk or spit, snuffle or blow, something is the matter with the membrane of your res piratory tract, and you need Hyomei. And you need Hyomei because it will cure you of any catarrhal or inflam matory condition that exists. It isn’t stomach medicine, or spray, or douche, btft a very pleasant, heal ing, antiseptic balsam, from the euca lyptus forests of Australia. You breathe this balsamic air through a small, hard rubber inhaler, and it reaches every nook, corner and cre vice of the membrane, and promptly kills the catarrh germs. The Gaffney Drug Co. will sell you a complete Hyomei (pronounced High- o-me) outfit for $1.00, on the money- back plan. “The use of Hyomei cured Mr. Cut ler of catarrh in 1904.

MALARIA Malaria is clue to impurities and poisons in the blood. Instead of rich, strong and healthy, the circulation has become infected with germs of disease which destroy the rich, red corpuscles that furnish nourishment and strength to the body, and reduced this vital fluid to such a weak, watery condition that it is no longer able to keep the system in health, or ward off the countless diseases and disorders that assail it. The loss of theM red corpuscles takes the color and glow of health from the cheek ^snd w« see pale, sallow faces and washed out, chalky complexions among tne first symptoms of ..lalaria. But Malaria is a general systemic disease, and ns the blood becomes more heavily loaded with its germs we have moreserioak and complicated symptoms; the impure blood having its effect on all parts of the body The appetite fails, digestion is weakened, chills and slight fever are frequent, and the sufferer loses energy and ambition because of ft constant tired out and “no account ” feeling. The lack of necessary non** ishment and healthful qualities in the blood causes boils and abscesses, skin affections, and in some cases sores and ulcers to break out, and sometimes the patient is prostrated with a spell of malarial fever which may leave his health permanently impaired. To cure Malaria both a blood purifier and tonic are necessary, in order to remove the cause and at the same time build up the system from its weakened ^nd run-down condition. S. S. S. u the medicine best fitted for this work. It it the most perfect of all blood purifiers, and the purely vegetable ingredient* of which it is composed make it the r atest and safest of all tonics. S. S. goes down into the circulation and removes every trace of impurity or poison, and at the same time {j;ives to the blood the health-sustaining qual ities it needs. It cures Malana thoroughly and permanently because it removes the germs and poisons which prcxluce the disease, and while doing this tones up and strengthens every part of the system. When S. S. S. has cleansed the blood the symptoms pass away, the healthy color returns to the complexion, the old tired, depressed feeling is gone, and the entire health is renewed.
