CHEROKEE.

Gaffney Ledger, Now Is: The extra
term Of court called for Cherokee
county, to finish up large amount OF
business left over from the last regu-
lar term, convened yesterday morning
with Judge Frank B. Gary of Abbe-
vile, as special presiding judge. The
solicitor, court stenographers and at
torneys were all on hand at the open
ing, and after the usual preliminaries,
the business Of the session was at once
taken up. There are over twenty
cases to be heard and the term will
probably De continued for three weeks.
The first case called yesterday was
Chadwick VS.. Gaffney Manufacturing
company, which occupied the atten-
ton of the court throughout the re-
mainder Of the day. A verdict had
not been reached when The Ledger
went to press. Mr.. John Harris,
young man who lives in the northern
part of the city, was at the Southern
depot last night, presumably waiting
for No. 40, a northbound passenger
train which arrives a little after eight,
while several little darkies and one
larger one were playing about the
tracks. The larger negro seemed to
be chasing the smaller ones, and final
ly the boys ran around behind the de-
pot and were lost to sight. The large
one then ran up to Mr.. Harris, ripped
open his trousers pocket with knife
or some sharp instrument, and three
silver dollars fell to the ground. AS
the negro stopped to pick up the mon
ey Mr.. Harris caught him and at
tempted to hold him; but the negro
was "too much" for him, and finally
succeeded in getting the money and
making his escape. The frlendS OF
Mr.. Samuel Jefferies are glad to see
him able to be out again after his
severe fall from horse some time
ago.
News, Nov. Is: Mr.. w. H. Neale,
who left the Smith Ford section OF
York county Al years ago and settled
in Chickasaw county, Miss, and who
has not been in South Carolina since,
till this visit, was in the city Friday
visiting relatives. Mr.. Neale has ac-
cumulated a handsome fortune, Is a
successful farmer and a very intelli-
gent old gentleman. He was a soldier
of the Confederacy from start to fin
ish, and was wounded twice in battle.
-. Mrs Mary E. Hill, who was reared
| in York and Chester counties, but
married and left this state for Aurora,
Ala. 40 years ago, is expected in a
few days to pay visits to her two
brothers, j. L. Strain, Esq, of Wilkins
Vile, and John L. Strain Of Clifton,
the only ones surviving Of a family
| Of six children. She will spend two
months in this state.

A Wonderful DiscoYerY.

Broadland. s. OAK, March 2s.--
Quite a sensation has been created here
by the publication the story of G..
W. Gray, who after special treatment
for three months was PROSTATE and
helpless and given up to die with
Bright's Disease. Bright's Disease has
always been considered incurable, but
evidently from the story told by Mr..
Gray, there is a remedy which will
cure it even in the most advanced
stages. This is what he says:
~ was helpless as little babe
My wife and searched everything and
read everything we could find about
Bright's Disease, hoping that I would
be able to find remedy. After many
failures my wife insisted that should
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. 1 praise God

this remedy met every phase of my case
and in a short time was able to gel

Longest Road In the World.

In 1901 the great Siberian railway
was thrown open to the public. There
was then in operation total of 1,444
miles in Manchuria and 1860 miles in
Siberia, continuous Russian line from
Moscow to Port Arthur of 5 ,429 miles;
and the new trains de luxe, which will
begin running this summer, will give

MR. AND MRS. j. Q. ATKINSON, INDEPENDENCE, MO.

Under date of January 10, 1897, DIR.
Hartman received the following letter:
"My wife had been suffering from a

years.
"Her case had baff1ed the skill of
some of the most noted physicians.
One of her worst troubles was chronic
constipation of several years standing.
''She also was passing through that
most critical period in the life of a
woman--change of life. In June,
1895, wrote to you about her case.
You advised course of Peruna and
Manalin, which we at once commenced,
andss sshave to say it completely cured
her. She firmly believes that she
would have been dead only for these
wonderful remedies.
"About the same time I wrote you
about my own case Of catar1h, which
had been of 25 years standing. AT
times was almost past going. I COM
menced to use Peruna according to your
intructions and continued it's use for
about year, and it has completely
cured me.
"YOur remedies do all that you

CAT CANNOT SUCK BREATH. !

Old Superstition 10 Upset by the
Highest Medical Authorities.
Can a cat really suck the breath Of
child?
We have always heard that it could.
Away back in early childhood we dis
tinctly remember of frequent warn
ings to look out for the cat. Do not
allow the cat to get into bed with the
baby, as it is liable to suck the baby's
breath, which would cause the baby to
die.
Is there any foundation for such a
notion as this? We never could dis
cover any real meaning to the belief
that cat can suck the breath of
child. Indeed, the sentence is totally
unintelligible.
What is meant by sucking the
breathe It may be true that the cat,
attracted by the breath Of a child
who had recently been nursing, might
attempt to interfere in some manner
with the child's mouth. In young cats
the impulse to nurse might be excited
by the smell of the child's breath.
It Is barely possible that the cat might
be seized with desire to bite or to de-
your the child's lips or tongue, lured
on by the smell of milk. We are not
in a position to deny these possibil1-
ties. Maybe they are true.
But not any of these suppositions
furnish a basis for the statement that
the cat is liable to suck the child's
breath. We have always heard this
statement with O shudder Of horror.
It seems to convey some weird, hor-
rible tragedy that can hardly be imag-
ined. But it is mere fancy, the orl-
gin of which is hard to explain.
Yet we would advise mothers to be
careful about leaving the infant with
a cat. We do not favor the idea OF
cats sleeping with children. Nor do
we favor the practice of children play
ing with cats, handling them, mopping
them around the floor, fondling them,
dressing them up as dolls. 1t is not
good for the cat. 1t is not good for
the child. Neither cats nor dogs ought
to be treated in this manner. They are
all right in their place, but they are
not fit for playthings.
If the superstition that a cat can
suck child's breath has operated as
preventive to mothers allowing their
children to play with cats it has served
a very good purpose, but such childish
notions are hardly compatible with ma
ture reflection. 1t is one of the old
wives fables which may have served
a good purpose, but it is too ridiculous
for repetition. There are other and
better reasons why the cat and baby
should not be left together than the
vague, unintelligible fear that the cal
will suck the child's breath.-Medical

In letter dated January /, 1900, Mr..
Atkinson says, after five years. expert.
ence with Peruna:
''I will ever continue to speak good
word for Peruna. In my rounds as d
travelling man ann walking adver-
tisement for Peruna and have induced
many people during the past year 70
use Peruna with the most satisfactory
results. | am still cnred of catarrh.''
John O. Atkinson,
Box 272, independence, Mo.
When old age comes on, catarrhal
diseases come also. Systemic catarrh
is almost universal in old people.
This: explains why Peruna has become
so indispensable to old people. Peru.
ma is their safeguard, Peruna is the
only remedy yet devised that meets
these cases exactly.
Such cases cannot be treated locally;
nothing but an effective systemic REM
edy could cure them. This is exactly
what Peruna is.

satisfactory results from the use of Pc
runa, write at once to DR.. Hartman,
