Oct. 9.?While no definite plans ba\> been announced by the members of tLe Commission charged with the Improvement of conditions of the State Hospital for the Insane it is expected that w.en the plans bavv been submitted by the hospital architect for the new buildings to be erected on the site recently purchased near Columbia, that there will be in. eluded in the group cf buildings, one which will be specially devoted for the disease pellagra. There are many eases of pellagra being treated at the state Hospital tot the Insane, A large percentage ol the c?sea sre negroes Dr. J. \v. Bslx >< v. the superintendent has stated that the n*-w bite will be first used for the more serious cases of negro jKitiems At the old institution the pellagrlns are in a section of t:je old Parker building. With a new building on the site recently purchased these patients would be entirely segregated from the other types. Dr. Babcock (S one of the best known and most capable authorises on the disease pellagra. He Tias done much valuable research work yet like ail other authorities on the question of the cause of pellagra he has not ar rived at a definite decision. Should there be a special building erected it would possibly be the first Of its kind in this country. 1? ?as staf-d following the meeting of the commission on Friday by Dr. Babcock that the names of the owners of the several tracts of land making up the new site for the asylum would be announced In several days. The concurrent resolution providing for the asylum commission named the members for only one year. The com mission is preparing its report which will be submitted to the next general assembly. It is very probable that the commission will be reappointed from year to year until the plan of improve ment has been consummated. The sum to be paid for tue new site will be approximately 150.000. The plan of improvement will very likely require an appropriation from year to year until the work has been complet ed. There are over 1.600 patients at the State hospital a..d this number Is increasing. Your cough annoys you. Keep on hacking and tearing the delicate mem branes of your throat if you want to be annoyed. But if you want relief, want to be cured, take Chamberlain's ' Cough Itemed)'. rk?)d by Laurens Drug Co. MOW TO CURE RHEUMATISM. It I? an Internal Disease and Reqoires an Internal Remedy. The cause of Rheumatism and kin dred diseases is an excess of uric acid In the blood. To cure this terrible disease this acid must be expelled and the system so regulated that no more acid will be formed in excessive quantities. Rheumatism is an internal disease and requires an internal reme dy. Rubbing with Oils and Liniments will not cure, affords only temporary relief at best, causes you to delay this proper treatment, allows the malady to get a firmer hold on you. Liniments may ease the pain, but they will no more cure Rheumatism than paint will change the fibre of rotten wood. Science has at last discovered a per. feet and complete cure, which is call ed "Rheumaclde." Tested in hundreds of cases, it has effected the most mar velous cures: we believe it will cure yon. Rheumaclde "gets at the Joints from the inside." sweeps the poisons out of the system, tones up the stom ach, regulates the liver and kidneys and makes you well all over Rheu maclde "Strikes the root of the dis ease and removes its cause."
