, The Argus would like to add a
flower to the bouquet presented to
Miss Belle Greer at her home in
Cherokee county by twenty girl
friends for so bravely defending
her good character by laying the
lash on an impudent young man
who spoke slightingly of her.
A Home for Wayward Girls
Who are the women of tomor
row? Are they not the girls of to
day? There are girls in our State
who have not had a chance. Let
us seek to prepare them for a use
ful life. What a glorious plan to
have a school for these helpless
girls that they might see life in an
earnest way! Help them that they
may help themselves. The money
put in a home for wayward girls
would be of untold value, for these
girls are to be mothers of the men
and women of our State. Is there
any heart that would not favor
such a worthy cause? Let us work
and pray that our Legislature will
approve this bill.
Catarrh Cannot be Cured
with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the
ttiseare. Catarrh is a blood or con
stitutloual disease, and in order to
cure it you must take internal rem

internally, and acts directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure is not a quack
medicine. It was prescribed by one
of the best plivsioians in tlds country
'or years and is a regular prescrip
tion. It is composed of the best
tonics known, combined with the

on the mucous surfaces. Tile per

Saved Girl’s life
“1 want to tell you what wonderful benefit I have re
ceived from the use of Thedford’s Black-Draught,” writes
Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky.
“U certainly has no equal for la grippe, bad colds,
liver and stomach troubles. I firmly believe Black-Draught
saved my little girl’s life. When she had the measles,
they went in on her, but one good dose of Thedford’s
Black-Draught made them break out, and she has had no
more trouble. I shall never be without
BLAck-DraugHT
in my home.” For constipation, Indigestion, headache, dizzi
ness, malaria, chills and fever, biliousness, and ail similar
ailments, Thedfbrd’s Black-Draught has proved itself a safe,
reliable, gentle and valuable remedy.
If you suffer from any of these complaints, try Black-
Draught It is a medicine of known merit Seventy-five
years of splendid success proves its value. Good for
young and old. For sale everywhere. Price 25 cents.

Pimples Should
Be Watched
May be Means of Absorbing
Disease Germs in Most
Unexpected Manner.
The research laboratory of the Swift
Specific Company has collected a vast
uniount of Information regarding the
spread of blood diseases. In thousands
of Instances the most virulent typds
have been the result of coming In con
tact with disease germs In publio
places, and the apparently insignifl
cant pimple has been the cause. It
spreads with astonishing rapidity,
often Infecting the entire system in a
few days.
It Is fortunate, however, that there
Is a remedy to cope quickly and thor
oughly with such a condition, and
thanks to the energy of its producers
the famous S. S. S. may now be had
at almost any drug store In the civil
ized world.
This preparation stands alone as a
blood purifier. It is somewhat revolu
tionary In Its composition, since It
accomplishes all that was ever claimed
for mercury, iodides, arsenic, and other
destructive mineral drugs, and yet it
is absolutely a purely vegetable prod
uct. There are more cases of articular
rheumatism, locomotor ataxia, paresis,
neuritis, and similar diseases resultant
from the use of minerals than most
people are aware of. These facts are
brought out In a highly Interesting
book compiled by the medical depart
ment of The Swift Specific Cos., 127
Swift Bldg. Atlanta, Ga. It is mailed
free, together with a special letter of
advice, to all who aro struggling with
a blood disease.
Get a bottle of S. S. S. to-day
of your druggist. It will surprise you
with its wonderful action in the blood.
