the other diseases that af1ct humanity. The
great medicinal virtues of Paine's Celery Com

for the cure of all forms of rheumatism and
neuralgia. Thousands of strong testimonial
letters from the most prominent people of the
land, prove that Paine's Celery Compound
has banished these terribly fatal troubles wher
all other treatment has failed. Mrs. Mar

years of agonizing tortures had desire to enc

noon team from St. George, composed
of an aggregation of hired players from
Charleston and elsewhere, will come up
for a game, and while Bambergs team Is
rather weak just at present, it is safe to
say that We will interest them. Osteen

hired man, and will play with st. George
this afternoon.
Denmark is to come here Friday after
noon of this week for a game 1t is sup
posed that this will also be good game.
for no doubt some of Orangeburgs hired
men will make up good part OF the
Denmark team
Next Tuesday, the 30th, Orangebure
will no doubt come over, and this Will
very probably be battle royal. BAN
berg has beaten Orangeburgtwice already
this season, and they are anxious for re-

we can show her hired players thing OF

is composed largely of hired players.
