TTYfcTOT'
CAN NOT BE
MOT:
RUBiBED AWAY
I It 13 perfectly natural to rub the spot that hurts, and when the muscles,
tterves, joints and bones are throbbing and twitching1 with the pains of
Rheumatism-the sufferer is apt to turn to the liniment bottle, or some other
external application, in an effort to get relief from the disease, by producing
counter-irritation on the flesh. Such treatment will quiet the pain tempo
rarily, but can have no direct curative effect on the real disease because it
does not reach the blood, where the cause is located. Rheumatism is more'
than skin deep it is rooted and grounded in the blood and can only be
reached by constitutional treatment IT CANNOT BE RUBBED AWAY.
Rheumatism is due to an excess of uric acid in the blood, brought about by
the accumulation in the system of refuse matter which the natural avenues
cf bodily waste, the Bowels and Kidneys, have failed to carry off. This
refuse matter, coming in contact with the different acids of the body, forma
uric acid which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to all parts of the
tody, and Rheumatism gets possession of the system. The aches and pains
are only symptoms, and though they may be scattered or relieved for a time
by surface treatment, they will reappear at the first exposure to cold or
dampness, or after an attack of indigestion or other irregularity. Rheuma
tism can never be permanently cured while the circulation remains saturated
with irritating, pain-producing uric acid poison. The disease will shift
from muscle to muscle or joint to joint, settling on the nerves, causing
inflammation and swelling and such terrible pains that the nervous system
is often shattered, the health undermined, and perhaps the patient becomes
deformed and crippled for life. S. S. S. thoroughly cleanses the blood and
renovates the circulation by neutralizing the acids and expelling all foreign
matter from the system. It warms and invigorates the blood so that instead
of a weak, sour stream, constantly deposit
ing acrid and corrosive matter in the mus
cles, nerves, joints and bones, the body is fed
and nourished by rich, health-sustaining
blood which completely and permanently
cures Rheumatism. S. S. S. is composed
of both purifying and tonic properties
just what is needed in every case of Rheu
matism. It contains no potash, alkali or other mineral ingredient, but is
made entirely of purifying, healing extracts and juices of roots, herbs and
barks. If you are suffering from Rheumatism do not waste valuable time
trying to rub a blood disease away, but begin the use of S. S. S. and write
xls about your case and our physicians will give you any information or
advice desired free of charge and will send our special treatise on Rheumatism,

"But, you see, I don't love you,"
objected the fair young woman.
"Then why," demanded the indig
nant youth, "did you eat a total of
sixty pounds of candy at eighty cents

the last year?"
"Because," she answered softly, with
a soulful expression on her lovely face,

Can Hardly be Supplied.
New uses for corn tends to keep the
price up, and it makes no difference
how great the supply is the demand
can hardly be supplied. The supply
this year is said to be short, and with
the demand for corn for manufactur
ing purposes, the prospects are that
corn will be corn in price. Many
people probably are not aware that
millions of bushels of corn are now be
ing used for manufacturing starch,
glucose, grape sugar and other prod
ucts, even the stalks and cobs being
utilized in some products.
The Devils" Bible.
The volume which is called "the
devil's-Bible," is in the library of the
royal palace of Sweden. It is a huge
copy of the Scriptures written on 300
prepared asses skins. One report says
that it took 500 vears to complete this
copy, which is so large that it has a
table by itself. Another tradition says
that it was completed in a night, due
to the assistance of his Satanic majesty
who when the work was finished, gave
the monk a portrait of himself for a
frontisnlace. The illuminated likeness
x
of the devil still adorns the front page
ot the work. , -
What Pat Was Bobbing For.
Two Irishmen were being chased by
a mad bull, when one climbed a tree
and the other dropped in a hole in the
ground. Seeing what had happened
the bull turned and waited. The man
in the hole shot his head above the
ground, but the vicious animal made
him take it ba,ck. rat did this time
after time until John, the man up the
tree, becoming vexed, said: "Pat, you
dom fool, quit bobbing up there and
let the bast go on! If you keep this
up we'll be here forever and a day.
As Pat shot his head out again he
said: "To h'll with your talk. Mind
i . i i
your own business, mere s a Dear in
this hole." Charlotte Observer.
Twenty 'Possums in One Family.
George Fulton, colored, who lives
on the old Fulton place, near the city,
is not only a good farmer, but has a
good eye. as well as a tooth for 'pos-
f sum," and when George gets straight
after one of these "varmints, there is
generally something doing. A few
weeks ago George captured a female
'possum with her pouch fairly running
over with young ones. He placed her
in a box and since then the little ones
are out of the pouch twenty in number.
This is perhaps the largest 'possum
family in existence and George is
justly proud of his possession, for, if
he can get them to the rears of ac
countability, his . hospitality will be
sought by his neighbors. Mt. Airy

Fight Between Man and Snake.
Being almost whipped to death by a
coach whip snake is the experience
claimed by J. A. Mordant, a well
known citizen of Marshall county vAla.
Mr. Mordant, in speaking of the inci
dent, said he had been calling on his
pastor and when walking towards home
through a cotton patch, he came upon
a snake that measured about 13 feet
in length. Seizing a rock, he threw it
at the snake and when the reptile
showed fight he turned and ran, but
the snake overtook him. The snake
made two coils around the man's body
and begun to whip him. Mordant had
nothing to defend himself with but a
small knife and for a time he was
doubtful whether he would be whipped
or squeezed to death before he could
inflict a fatal wound on the reptile.
Almost exhausted, he sunk to his knees
and succeeded in cutting the snake's
head from the body. He was exhaust
ed by the experience, but after recov
ering he came upon the mate of the
dead snake. This time there was no
battle because Mr. Mordant was the
best sprinter.

H0BG00D-GLENN NUPTIALS.
Two Leaders of Greensboro Social
Circle Plight Their Troth.
Greensboro Correspondent of Char
lotte Observer of Oct. 9th says: One
of the loveliest marriage cermonies wit
nessed in Greensboro for some time was
theone solemnized in the First Pres
byteriain church this afternoon at 5
o'clock when two of Greensboro's most
popular young people, Miss Lucy
Glenn and Capt. F. P. Hobgood, were
happily united. The ceremony was
performed in a plain, but nevertheless
very impressive manner by the bride's
pastor, Rev. Melton Clark. Quite a
crowd was present to witness the cere
mony, among them a number of out-of-town
people from various parts of
the State.
Just half an hour before the time set
for the bridal party to enter Mr. Wm.
H. Jones, of Norfolk, uncle of the
bridegroom, began the rendition of an
elaborate musical programme as fol
lows: "March From 'Aida'," by
Verdi; "The Answer" by Wolsten
holme; "Introduction to the Third Act
of Lohengrin," by Wagner; "Inter
mezzo from Suite," by Rogers; "Medi
tation," by Borowski; "March from
'Jorsalfar'," by Greig. To the strains
of .Greig's "Norwegian Bridal Proces
ion," rendered on the great pipe organ
by Mr. Jones, the bridal party entered
the church. Leading down the left
aisle came Gen. B. S. Royster, of Ox
ford, and Mr. John A. Gilmer, of this
city, and at the same time from the
right door and down the right aisle
came Col. S. W. Minor, of Durham,
with Mr. R. W. Glenn, of Greensboro,
brother of the bride. Then down the
left aisle came the matron of honor,
Mrs. Robert G. Sloan, sister of the
bride, and behind her came the bride,
Miss Lucy Glenu, leaning on the arm
of her father, Mr. Robert G. Glenn.
At the altar they were met by Captain
Hobgood, who entered with his broth
er, Dr. James Edward Hobgood, of
Oxford, from a door just to the
right of the altar, and here the bride
was given awray by her father. The
altar around which the marriage par
ties gathered was a perfect bank of
ferns and palms and from this the min
ister spoke the simple words that join
ed the hearts as one.
At the close of the ceremony the pa
rties marched out of the church to the
strains of Mendelssohn's Wedding
March; and were hastily driven to the
home of the bride on North Elm street
where a reception was tendered, the
newljwedded couple and the families
of theontracting parties.
Ir Viii wore a lovelv sown of
peoe 'cherie and BrusselPs
lace -wtUi bridal veil and orange blos
soms, and "carriecf a handsome bouquet
of white bride's roses. The matron
of honor, Mrs. R. G. Sloan, was iobed
in a white lingerie gown over blue
with black picture hat, and carried a
large bunch of La France roses.
. At the home of the bride on North
Elm was an elegant display of pres
ents, which were outward expressions
of the high esteem in which the con
tracting parties are held.
After receiving the hearty congratu
lations from a host of friends the happy
young couple left this evening on
southbound train No. 35 for the sap
phire region, where they will stay for
some time. They will be at home in
Greensboro after November 1st at their
residence on the corner of North Edge
worth street and Bellamade Avenue.
The bride is a young lady of " many
charming traits and is surrounded by
a host of admiring friends and relatives.
Captain Hobgood is one of the most
successful and promising roung law
ers in the city, having located here a
number of years ago after having
studied law at Wake Forset College.
For a number of years he has been
captain, of the Gate City Guards and
for several years has had the enviable
honor of sending to the annual en
campment the best drilled company in
the State. Both of the young people
occupy a very high position in the so
cial circles of Greensboro and State.
Here is a Tangle.
An old man of fifty and a young
man of twenty-eight, both widowers.
The young man has a stepdaughter
thirty-eight years old, that he marries
to'the older gentleman, and in return
takes the old man's daughter for a
wife. Now what relation are those
four people to one another.
