Bank and Mill Directors Declare Usual Dividend, Showing Their Prosperous ; Condition Machine For Manufac . turing Wood Pulp From Cotton Stalks Other Notes. Special to Th3 Observer. Gaffney. S. C, June 25. A good day's work was done in the court of Sessions yesterday. Solicitor .Sease secured convictions In several cases; in fact In every case that was tried the State secured a conviction. The Merchants' and Planters' Bank last Thursday afternoon declared its usual semi-annual dividend of 4 per cent. This Is one of th most pros perous banking Institutions in the piedmont section. The directors of the Whitaker Cot ton Mill, of Blacksburg, have declar ed a 6 per cent, dividend,, 3 per cent, of which will be payable the first of next month, and the remaining 3 per cent.1 will be- payable the first of July 1908. ;i. Messrs. B. G.. Kuhne and J. L Dan iels have gone - to Charlotte for the purpose of having a machine built with which to manufacture wood pulp from the fibre of cotton stalk. After ,the commercial value of the machine has been practically demonstrated a plant will be estbllshed at Gaffney for the purpose of turning out machines in large quantities. Preparations for the big Fourth of July celebration are going on apace. Gaffney expects to have the time of her life on that occasion COTTON CROP IMPROVING. The Corn Crop Doing Well No Lower Rates, But Better Facilities Wanted by Yorkvllle People Personal News Notes. . v :rr"';'1"; Special to The Observer. V i " Yorkvllle, S. C June 25. Less than thirty days have elapsed since the al most universal wail of the farmers was that the crop outlook at the same season of the year had never been . more discouraging In all their experi ence, and that there would be no cotton- to gather next fall, owing to the fact that the stands ' were exceedingly poor ' and that even that that had come up was dying by reason of the continued cool weath er, especially at night During the past two weeks, by reason of a change in the temperature to characteristic June weather, accompanied by about the - necessary rainfall, the tune has been changed and now they are heard to assert they never "saw cotton grow as it has during the past ten days." Of course, their ' assertions . as to gloomy outlook and as to present con ditions are exaggerations, and while conditions are not up to the average at this season of the year, there has been a wonderful improvement, and the outlook now is, that with aver age conditions from now on there will be a fair yeld of cotton. The corn crop Is especially promising and the acreage unusually large, and the best oat crop for a number of years ha been harvested. The fruit crop, except blackberries, is a total failure, and owing to tho fact that there is nothing else from which to make pies and the conse quent great demand, blackberries are selling more readily at 10 cents for a single quart or 15 cents v for two, than in ordinary seasons at five cents for one quart or ten cents for three. . Mr. J. C. Allen, formerly the ef ficient and highly esteemed superln-" tendent of the Yorkvllle Graded Schools, who resigned last winter be cause of a clash between himself and ,the board of trustees on a matter of discipline, is spending a lew days Bhaklng hands with his numerous friends. ' " V , While it Is a fact that taking into consideration the number of mail aiU passenger trains operated through this place on the Southern and the Caro line and North Western Railways four on the former and two on the latter the local traveling public has never enjoy better facilities for get ting in and out of town, still they would be better still had it not been for the action of the North Carolina Legislature last spring 'in reducln,? passenger rates in that State to 2 1-4 cents the mile, thus inflicting a heavy loss on the Carolina and Nortly West ern so far as the trains it was already operating were concerned, and render ing It practically impossible for the management to restore Nos. 7 and 8, a train that was operated last Bprlu and summer and until late In the fall, starting early In the morning ' each day and making the' trip to Chester and return on a schedule for which the people, and especially those serv ed exclusively by this road, have bejn clamoring for years. VThere is no de mand among the thinking people of this section for a reduction In the passenger rates, but there Is a demand for better facilities and the people wh do mpt of the traveling realize that the natural consequence of a'reduc- ed earning capacity will be poorer facilities, and they look upon the ac tion of the North , Carolina dema gogues as especially cruel in the face of the fact that it presses ?n South Carolinians and also on a road that has struggled for 12 or 14 years for an existence, and has always given all its patrons a square deal.

These humors and acids get into the blood, gener ally because of an inactive and sluggish condition of those members whose duty it is to collect and carry off the waste and refuse of the body. This unhealthy matter is left in the system, to sour and ferment, and soon the circulation becomes charge with the acid poison. The blood, in its effort to rid itself of this foreign matter, begins to throw off the humors and acids through the pores and glands of the skin. These coming in contact with the delicate tissues and fibers with which the skin is so abundantly supplied ?roduces irritation and inflammation on the surface, and Eczema, Acne, etter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum, or some other troublesome and disfiguring skin disease is the result. External applications, while they soothe the itching, and are beneficial In keeping the skin clean, can never cure" skin affections, because they do not reach the blood where the real trouble is located. A thorough cleansing of the blood is the only permanent cure foe tkisi diseases, 1 S. S.
