who demanded him to throw up his

the Moffat road have reached an
agreement whereby the Union Pacific
is to handle all traffic the Moffat road
may see fit to turn its way, and un-

CAN'T SPANK this boy

New York, Jan. 26.-James Loertsch,
known to his neighbors in Caldwell, \.
j., as the "glass-bone boy" from the
facility with which he gets broken,
kept up his record Wednesday, when
he fell on the sidewalk in front of his
home in Cleveland street and his right
leg was smashed.
This is James eighth bore-breaking
feat in the eight years of his life and
his third within the last five months.
In September he broke his right leg
in kicking a football. There was no
one near at the time and he did not
kick hard enough to send the ball far.
III November, when he was standing in
a wagon, the horse moved unexpected
ly and jolted him to the wagon bed.
The jolt did not roll him from the
wagon, but broke his left leg.
He kept to the house after that until
yesterday, when the sunshine and the
glaze of the sidewalk lured him out
He took one slide. Down he dropped
and plying onlookers said, What
Again?"

ORCHARDS AREI
rsEzE
Still SAFE
in SUMTER
Peaches Not Injured to Any
Extent.
Reports From Largest Fruit Farms in
the Americas District Are EnCOuT
aging--.PFOSpGCt Still Favorable
for a Peach Crop This Year.

The five hundred thousand peach
trees in the Americas district are
still uninjured by weather conditions.
according to statements made the
Times-Recorder yesterday yesterday
by three of the largest orchardmen
here, Messrs. N. A, Ray j. l.. CLAW
son and w o. Scott, of this city, in
reply to inquiries
The young buds have not been in
jured and are not yet advanced far
enough for cold to hurt them, at
least at this time.
The general opinion of these grow,
ers is that the trees are in fine condi-
ton and barring possible freezes in
February or even later, should yield
another good crop, though nothing like
the bumper" crop Of last year.
Mr.. Ray says that the 100000 trees
of the great Bagley-Ray Orchard Co
are all right still for good crop. Mr.
Scott of the Carolina Orchard Co, OF
$4,000 trees, and Supt. Glawson, ii
the Ware-Progress Co.'S farm of 1O0,-
GOO trees, both feel sure that no dam
age has been done the trees.
1t was feared for atime that the ul,
usually warm weather last week would
start the young buds, but such was
not the case.
The trees in the three orchards men
toned above, as we'll as those of the
00,00G-tree orchard of the Raymond
Orchard Co. here, besides numerous
smaller orchards, have recently re-
ceiyed most careful attention, and are
now in the pink of condition with the
promise of a fair crop.
Only in one orchard in the Ameri-
Gus territory have any trees been cut
down, the Bagley-Ray Co., thus cut
ting away $4,000 trees that were deem
ed not the best
The land on which the trees stood S
of more value to its owners than with
the trees on it.
In cotton, corn and other cereals It
viii britg in q inJch larger income, as
has been demonstrated during the past
several seasons, when, in a great many
instances, the cost of gathering and
shipping the peaches was greater than
the returns realized from their sale.
The crop here last season was the
finest in the history of peach culture,
and while another such crop in a de-
cade is not at all likely the growers
here still hope for a fair yield t
year.

EIGHTEEN YEARS OLD

ATARER FIJI
A SYSTEMIC BLOOD DISEASE

Catarrh is not merely an affection
of the mucous membranes; it is a
deep-seated blood disease in which the
entire circulation and greater part of
the system are involved. 1t is more
commonly manifested in the head,
nose and throat, because Of the sensi-
tive nature Of these membranes, and
also because they are mere easily
reached by irritating influences from
the outside. The symptoms of Ca
tarrh, such as tight feeling in the
head, nose stopped up, throat clogged
and dry, hacking cough, ETC., show
that the tiny blood vessels of the mu-
cous membranes are badly congested
and inhaned from the impurities in
the circulation. To cure Catarrh per-
nanently the blood must be purified
and the system cleansed of all un-
healthy matter. Nothing equals
S. S. S. for this purpose. It attacks
