There is more Ctarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
+. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t IS taken internally IN
doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful
1t acts directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfaces OF the system. They
offer one hundred dOllards for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circu-
lars and testimonials.

Ter Transfer Company, and two small
frame stores were destroyed by a fire
which originated shortly after 10
O'Clock Friday morning in the loft of
the Transfer Company stables and
practically wiped away this and all
adjacent buildings before it could be
| ex:inguished
The fire department did some quick
and effective work in preventing the
IRE from spreading, as at the time the
blaze broke out stiff wind was blow
ing from the west and there was q
chance of the fire catching buildings
across the street. AS it was only
these three buildings, two of which
belonged to Mr.. ]. K. Crosswen and
one to Mr. A. D. Hardy, this one be-
Ing occupied by the Sumter Transfer
Company.
The fire was first discovered in the
ioIt OF the transfer building, where it
mad caught in the hay which was stor
ed IN that place. How it caught is
not known, although it is thought that
IL might have originated from a spark
from the stove pipe from this or an
auJacent building. With the wind
ploWlng almost a gale the fire spread

pany building and the two adjacent
stores caught in few minutes. The
IRE department reached the scene
ABOUT the time that the three buildings
caught and quickly stretched out sew
eral lines of hose, but all the water
they could pour on was not sufficient
to extinguish the blaze before tho
buildings were practically DESTROYED.
Across the street just in front of the
| blazing buildings is the newly erected
and yet uncompleted building of the
CIaremont Hotel. Here the men at
, work in the building were called out

In the building were run out and
| streams of water were kept on the
woodwork, bricks and windows of the
building until the fire across the street
mad been partially eXtinguished and
| there was no longer danger of the
MOTEL building catching AS a result
OF this precautionary work, the hotel
building did not suffer any damage
from the fire save being somewhat
blackened by the dense smoke which
the wind blew from across the street.
1T was shown that there is plenty of
fire fighting apparatus at the hotel
which may be brought into service
In case that building catches on fire
at any time in the future.
An accident happened to the steam
er while that machine was at the
fire. In turning the single tree was
ssnappd off and a new one had to be
provided before it could be taken hack

The loss by the fire to the proper
~ owners was estimated at about So

we'll stated that he had some insur-
ance on the two buildings which he
owned, but that it did not amount to
more than 500. Those two buildings
we're occupied by Mr.. w. c. Ivey. a

she can easily overcome the trouble.
When the wax is washed off next
morning, flaky skin particles come
with it. The entire cuticle is remov-
ed in this way in about a week, with
all its defects. No bleach could so
completely remove every freckle or
Dlemish. The new surface is smooth,
clear, fresh looking. No pain or incon-
venience accompanies this simple
treatment.
In case of wrinkles which sink be-
