School Reception.
(Renorted to The Commonwealth

(Reported to The Commonwealth
On Friday afternoon May 18th,
Mrs.C. F. White, assisted by the
ladies of the neighborhood, gave an
informal reception to her entire
school at the pleasant country home
of Mrs. P. E. White.
Several hours were pleasantly
spent, the children playing games
interspersed with conversation,
pretty music, etc.
Ice cream and cake were served
| in abundance to about fifty persons.
Altogether it vas very enjoyable
occasion and will long be remember
ed by the children who were fortu-
nate enough to be present.
The school room being so small, nc
attempt was made to have public
closing exercises; but as DR.. Harris
on has promised to try to have oul
school house enlarged, and better
equipped, we hope to be able to hav'
entertainments, concerts, etc., an
other school year.

Deafness Cannot be cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an intiamed con-
dition Of the mucous lining OF the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is
intlamed you have rumbllng sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to Its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inHamed condition OF the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall

Interesting Meeting Of U. c. Y.

Thursday afternoon, June 3rd, the
United Confederate Veterans held
their regular meeting IN the Hall of
the Buck Kitchin Camp. The meet
ing, though not so we'll attended as
usual on account of the inclemency
of the weather, was most interest
ing one. Commander Butterworth
after calling attention to the fact
that Thursday, June 3rd was the one
hundred and first anniversary of the
birth Of Jefferson Davis made few
timely and appropriate remarks con-
corning the life Of that great man.
At the conclusion of his remarks
he called upon Prof. R. L. Mills to
make further comment upon the life
of this man, jefferson Davis, whom
the Southern people called to preside
over their Southland during such a
stormy and troublous period.
Prof. Mills said in substance that
posterity, as it had done in the cases
of Paul, the Apostle. Bunyan, Crom-
we'll and Lee, would do justice to the
name of jefferson Davis, and place
him in that position he so well de-
serves to occupy, the position of an
honest, able, duty-loving, patriotic
man, a man who loved the Union,
but finally left it, not because he
loved the Union less, but because he
loved right more.
Prof. Mills remarks were most in
teresting and enjoyable and added
much to the pleasure of the occas-
ion. The next meeting will be held
in July at which time speaker will
address the camp on the life of Gen
eral Ramseur.
