HELPLESS FROM RHEUMATISM.

Twas terribly anlicted with Rheumatism for eighteen months, and during my sickness tried the s1in of many good physicians, all of whom pro nounced my case hopeless. Twas for q year in such q helpless condition that was unable to dress or two prescriptions suggested by friends, none of them giving me any Tehef. finally decided to in- ciude 6. $. 8. in my list and took the first dose while hobbling about on, crutches. After taking two bottles found so much relief was able to re- hnquish the use of one crutch and faithful con- tinuance of the medicine relieved me of the other cfutch and shortly afterwards enabled me to go to my work, at which have been ever since. Ihave had no return of symptoms of RheumatIsm, al though this was five years ago.

RUSSELL COUNTY NEGROES
 ARE STILL HELD HERE

Still held awaiting the order of re- lease from the Russell County author ities. the Lattimore negroes are at the Montgomery County jail. safe. for the while, at least, from mob attacks. The two negroes occupy tse peculiar situa- ton of men who are prisoners. not be- cause of crime, but because of inno- cence in the eyes of the law.
 For though the Russell County grand jury did not indict them for the mur- der of T. A. Williams. a prominent farmer of that section, the citizens of that place seem to hold the negroes guilty ,and threats of clandestine ven- gsance, despite the action of the grand fury, were revealed.
 To save the negroes, they mere hur- ried to Montgomery. instead of being released at Scale, in Russell County. The order of release will come to Montgomery within a short while. or such Is the expectation.

eSSary 10 SuStaln our DOQleS. The diseaseis caused by an ex- cess of uric acid in the blood, which gets into the cir culation because of indi- gestion, constipation, weak kidney action, and other ir- regularities of the system, which are sometimes conSid- cred of no importance. This uric acid produces an inflamed and acrid condition of the blood, and the circulation, in- stead of nouriShing the differ ent portions of the body, con- . 6nually deposits into the nerves, muscles, joints and bones the irritating pain-pro- ducing acid with which it is filled. Then follow the pain ful and torturing symptoms of Rheumatism. The very life and vitality of the blood is being destroyed by the uric acid poison, and every muscle, nerve and Sinew of the body suffers in consequence.
 We do not claim for S. s. s. that it is anything more than a frst-claSs blood purifier and tonic, and that is all you need to cure Rheuma- ism. Itis true that linimentS, plasters, and other external applications, often tempora- rily relieve the pain and agony of the disease, and it is well enough to use them for the comfort they afford, but such treatment does not reach the seat of the trouble and of course can have no permanent good effect. s. s. s. cures Rheumatism permanently be- cause it puriRes the blood.

Runaway Accident.

Yesterday morning the horse of
Mail Carrier E. F. Free became
frightened while hitched to post in
front of the store of Mr.. E. Bart
Price, near the postofice, and dash
ed off. He turned the corner at the
store of Mr.. H. ]. Brabham, Jr., and
went up toward the Fitting School
on run, but he had not gone far be-
fore he attempted to pass Mr.. Till
man Fielder, who ran out to stop him,
and ran into telephone pole, break
ing the mail wagon up pretty badly.
Here he detached himself from the
wagon and went on up the street
with the harness flying about his
heels. Two young ladies, Misses
Wilhelmina Folk and Blanche Hair,
had narrow escape from injury, as
the runaway horse ran into their
horse just after he passed the corner,
and their buggy came very near be-
ing overturned. Had it not been for
the efforts of Mr.. Fielder, who caught
their horse, who in turn had become
frightened by the runaway dashing
against him, a serious accident might
have happened.

Fine Corn.

We had the pleasure of seeing
some exceedingly fine corn this week.
Mr.. J. J. Jones took us out to the
farm of he and his brothers yester-
day morning, and there we saw fifty
acres of as fine corn as we ever saw.
It is as green as can be and grow
ing fine. Most of the stalks have
several shoots, and it is estimated
that the corn will make three ears to
the stalk or more. 1t is planted in
six feet rows, and the stalks On the
bed are not more than twelve inches
apart. 1t is freely estimated by
average seventy-fve bushels or
more " to the acre, which will
give Jones Bros. about 1000 bushels
of corn to the fifty acres, in addition
to the fodder and pea vine hay. Mr..
Jones is confident that the corn will
pay him much better than cotton, al
though he has been making more
than a bale to the acre on this same
land for a number of years. Our
farmers need to pay more attention
to grain crops.

taken from among us.
Mr.. Chassereau always took an in
terest in public affairs, and served as
county commissioner of Barnwell
county before Bamberg was estab-

his neighbors and large circle of
friends, and his death is a distinct
loss to the county.

Protracted meeting began last
Sunday, and is going on this week,
the pastor doing the peraching. Ser
vices are 10 a. m. and $50 p. m.
The service Monday morning was
a Bible study. The subject was,
Weighing ourselves in Gods balance.
/. 1t is our duty to frequently do
this, since so much is involved in it.
See Pet. III, and 2 Cor. 1875.
2. The Divine balance is the word
of God. See John 12:4S.
8. The real evidence of being in
Christ lies not in experience of the
past or outward conformity; but in
what we are in life. See 2 Cor. SIT.
Compare, Matt. 1928 and John
1928.
4. The true evidence of right
life, lies in right heart. See 1 John
4:7-S. Proof of love to God is the
submissive spirit of obedience. See
John 14:15; l John 5:3, and l John
3:14. Proof that we do not love God.
See l John 2:15-17.
Tuesday morning the theme was,
Full Assurance of Faith, meaning
perfect trust in Christ the object of
faith. Paul expresses it in 2 Tim.
1:12.
We examine ourselves by Gods
word to be assured we are in faith,
and we study to know Christ and his
faithfulness and power as savior
to have full assurance of faith.
You might do we'll to cut this out
and put in your Bible for future
study and meditation.
