When yoor stomach begiot to trouble you,
it reeds help The help it needs, ia to digest
your food, and, until it gets it, you won't
have any peace, ct omach trouble is very
distressing, very obitioate, very dangerous.
Maoy of tbe most dangerous diseases begio
with simple indigestion. The reason is that
indigestion (cot-digestion, cot-nourishment)
weakens the system and allows disease germs
to attack it. The antidote is Sbaker Diges?
tive Cordial, streogtbentog, oenrisbiog, cora
tive. It cures indigestion and renews
s sreng to and health. U does this by
strengthening tbe stomach, by helping it tc
digest your food. It nourishes you. Sbaker
Digestive Cordial is made of pure herbs, plan >s
and wine, is perfectly harmless and will cer?
tainly cure all gennioe stomach 1 rou ti ie

TWO OA8E8 OF SMALLPOX.
The Disease Appears m This City.
The Board of Health Takes Pre?
cautions. Compulsory Vac?
cination Ordered.
The tbiog feared for several months has at
last coate to pass. Smallpox has broken out
in this city and two cases have been brought
to the attention of the Board of Health. The
disease is similar to tbe eruptive disorder that
bas been prevalent in Greenville, Columbia
and other towos io the upper sections of the
State, and although a great many physicians
in other places har? pronounced the disease
not smallpox, tbe phyeicians here are all of
tbe opinion that it is smallpox.
The first case reported to the Board of
Health was Tom Gaillard, colored. Dr.
Mood was called in to see bim several days
ago, but he was not seriously sick at that
time and there was only a slight eruption.
Sunday when he saw bim again his face
and body were covered with an eruption, and
Dr. Mood ootioed the Board of Health at once
Later in the day Dr. A. J\ China reported lo
the Board of Health that Mr. W. H Pate
bad ao eruptive disease tbat he believed to be
smallpox.
The Board of Health held a special meeting
Snndav afternoon and the two suspects
were examined by all of the physicians of the
city ot the reqnest of the Board. It was the
concensus of opio ion that both suspects bad
Smallpox or some disease so similar in every
respect that it w-s impossible to dtfferentiale
between them. Drs J J. Bosssard and A.
J. China attended many cases of smallpox
prior to, during aod immediately subsequent
to the war and are therefore well qualified to
speak authoritatively on the subject They
say tbat tbe disease is smallpox of a pronoun?
ced aad unmistakable type, although it may
prove to be of a mild from.
Dr. China, who is attending Mr. Pate,
staled to the writer this morning tbat there
was no doubt in bis mind as to the disease
being smallpox ; that the eruption was char?
acteristic in appearance and tbat the other
attendant and confirmatory symptoms were
present and more pronounced than yester?
day.
The Board of Health took prompt mea?
sures to isolate the two cases and to
preveat the spread of the diseease. The
bouses in which the two cases were located
were quarantined and everybody living io
the, i-eigbborbood was vaccinated at once,
more than fifty persons undergoiog the opera?
tion at the direction of the Board. Moo
day the Board of Health held a special
meeting and made arrangements to remove
the two cases to a pest house beyond the city
limits. As tbe pest house erected sometime
azo was recently burned, the Board was forced
to utilize tents, and four rego'ar army :ents
were ordered erected on the site of the pest
house. The tents have been floored and,
being water proof and close tbe smallpox
patients will suffer no hardship by the re?
moval.
Compulsory vaccination was decided to be
necessary, and an order was formulated to
put it into effect. One thousand vaccine
points were ordered by the Board, aod as
soon as they arrive steps will be taken to
ht ve every mao, woman and child in tbe city
vaccinated.
Tbe practicing physicians and police will
be required to report all sos: ected cases to
the Board as soon as discovered, and ali oth?
er cit zens will be requested to report su
pec'3 that coa e under their observation.
The outbreak bas created more or less ex?
citement in the city, and the doctors have
be?n kept busy vaccinating those who
prefer submitting voluntarily to the ordeal
rather than being forced to do so by tbe order
of the Board of Bealth
t There is no probability of an epidemic of
smallpox in Sumter, for a majority of the
people have been vaccinated within recent
months, and are therefore immune and the,
prompt aod efScient measures adorned hy the
Boara of Health wilt oot only preveot the
spread of the disease, but will reduce te a
n iuimum tbe danger of contagion. Io fact,
there is very little, if any, danger of conta?
gion, and no one need fear to pursue their
accustomed avocations just as if there was no
such thing as smallpox within a hundred
miles of Sumter.
Ka new cases of smallpox have beeo re?
ported to the Board of Health within the past
forty ?eight boors. It is stated, however, that
there have beeo within the past month, six or
or more cases of eruptive disease in the negro
suburb of the city known as Golden Hill.
