RHEUMATISM
BLOOD FILLED WITH URIC ACID
Rheumatism comes from an excess of uric acid in the blood. This acid
circulating through the system acts as an irritant to the different muscles,
nerves, bones and tissues of the body, and produces the inflammation and
swelling of the joints and the sharp, cutting pains characteristic of the dis
ease. When the blood is overburdened with uric acid it continually grows
weaker and more acrid, and poorer in nourishing qualities. Then Rheuma
tism becomes chronic, and not only a painful, but a formidable and danger- j
ous disease. Sometimes the heart is attacked, the general health is affected,
and the oils and fluids which lubricate the muscles and joints are destroyed
by the acrid matter which the blood is constantly depositing in them ; the j
muscles shrink and lose their elasticity, the coating of the joints becomes
hard and thick, and often the sufferer is left a hopeless cripple. S. S. S.
attacks the disease at its head, goes down into the circulation, and by neutral- ;
izing and removing the uric acid from the
circulation and building up the thin, acrid
blood, cures Rheumatism perm alientl y.
S. S. S. changes the sour, acid-burdened blood
£ ® *° ar ' healthy stream which quiets the
excited nerves, eases the throbbing, painful
PURELY VEGETABLE muscles and joints, and filters out of the ;
system the irritating matter which is causing
the pain and inflammation. Begin the use of S. S. S. now and get the cause
out of your blood so that the cold and dampness of Winter will not keep you
in constant pain and miserw Book on Rheumatism and anv medical advice

LACE BLOUSES GROW
IN POPULARItY
Some Fashions in Hats
and Dresses.
(Correspondence Times-Recorder.)
NEW York, Nov. 2.—The popularity
of lace blouses seems to increase as
the season advances, and it is believ
ed that the lingerie waist will receive
little favor. Where it is possible,
these lace blouses match the skirt.
This is not difficult if the skirt is of
a champaign or brown color.
The coarse meshed laces seem to
he used more than the fine ones, and
the prettiest of these waifets are made
of stripes of filet lace which is put to
gether with a fancy stitch. Some are J
made of three different laces over a
foundation of fine cotton net, and are.
trimmed with narrow ruffles of Cluny
lace. It is very smart to wear black
velvet -ribbon'a quarter of an inch
wide, at the top of the collar and tie
in a small bow at the hack, which
may be kept in place by a small bar
pin. Tiny hows of black satin are
worn in the front of many stocks.
One of the prettiest fashions in
hats, is the facing of felts with col
ored velvet. The French prefer the
Irish green velvet for this purpose
rather than any other color. It is a
very becoming style to have the color
next to the face, especially if the hat
is of a dark color. Hatter’s satin is
being used to a great extent because
of its adaptability for the most mod
ish shapes. It comes in all colors and
hats that are made of it are consider
ed very stylish.
Smart Walking Costumes.
A smart tailored walking costume
of brown serge suiting, has the skirt
made instep length in three circular
sections which are joined under grad
uated hems. There is a seam down
the center of the hack which gives the
ripple effect below the hips. The
cutaway coat has the wide armhole
effect and the sleeves are plain, full
length. The lower part of the vest is
of herring hone silkbraid, while the
upper section is of brown velvet
which matches the straps on the
cuffs.
It is evident that purple is the fav
orite color for this winter. All of the
smartest hats are made of purple vel
vet, or trimmed with it. There are
some stunning combinations of pur
ple and brown, green or a rich wine
red. When purple is unbecoming to
the face, the hat should he built up
with white or ecru, if that can be
worn equally as well. Besides the
morning glories and orchids and
fleur-de-lis that these hats are trim
med with are beautiful lavender and
purple pansies.
Purple Flowers On Bodice.
A fashion of pinning a small hunch
of fine articial flowers on the bodice
for dressy occasions, is as popular as
it was last Spring, but this winter the
flowers will be purple, of course.
Morning glories and the long trum
pet flowers will be worn. They are al
so pinned on a muff of black fur.
The new short walking skirts are
seen in plaids with a four-inch band
of velveteen around the bottom. One
verye ffective skirt was made of brick
dust red and black plaid with a vel
veteen band of black at the hem.
The latest guimpes are made of
very fine lace, with sometimes the
| combination of lace and tucked net
jor tulle. A line of color or a tiny
| fold of gold or silver at the top
makes a correct and pretty finish. Or j
there may be a tiny bow at the base!
of the throat; still others have a gold
and silver cord following the bottom ;
of the collar and tied in number of
small loops, the ends finished with
silk halls or tassels.
Better Than Spanking
j Spanking does not cure children of
i .bed-wetting. There is a constitutional
cause for this trouble. Mrs. M. Sum
mers, Box. W. Notre Dame, Ind., will
send free to any mother her success- 1
ful home treatment, with full in
structions. Send no money, but
| write her today if your children
trouble you in this way. Don’t blame
! the child, the chances are it can’t
help it. This treatment also cures j

“KEY LOG"LIEUTENANTS
WONDERFUL MEMORY;
Astounded Examiners Held
Up Appointment.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 2.
(Special)—Twenty-one second lieu
tenants have been ordered promoted
to first lieutenants. All these have
been delayed by the case of one young
officer. He has become known
through the army as the “Key Log
LDutsnant because like the one
, “Jonah” log that tightens the jam of
logs in a river, he jammed the prog
ress of promotions among the lower
grades in the army. .
The young officer is Lieutenant
Georgy C. Rockwell, of Kansas.
I Months ago Rockwell, who was sec
ond lieutenant of the Tenth Infantry,
j was ordered up for examination for
promotion. He passed his examina
tion in fine shape. In fact, when his
papers were examined they were so
letter-perfect in following the text
hooks in the replies that he made to
the various questions that a sugges
tion was made that he had “ponied”
his way through the examination.
There was no evidence that he had
done this, and nothing to warrant
charges being brought against him.
However, Ihe ■matter was examined,
and while this examination was going
on the second lieutenants junior to
Rockwell were delayed in receiving
their promotions.
After an exhaustive examination,
] those who looked Into young Rock
well's case have found that there was
nothing irregular in his examination
work. It was found that he possess
ed a wonderful memory, and was able
to retain letter-perfect knowledge of
sentences in the textbohks. In his re
, plies to the examination questions
Rockwell was able to give the exact
words of the textbooks.
Having solved the problem and
i come to the conclusion that Rockwell
was in every way eligible for promo
tion, the department yesterday made
public the list of 21 promotions of
second lieutenants, and Rockwell's
name headed the list. #

>' Another Kind of Immigration.

sincere purpose to improve the labor
situation there, have been misled in
to exaggerating the importance of for
eign immigration, and consequently,
into neglecting the means closer at
hand for encouraging immigration
from other parts of the country. It is
singularly unfortunate that, this mis
take has been made just at the mo
ment when the great bulk of foreign
. immigration to this country has come
I to mean a movement of individuals
| from abroad inclined to live upon a
I community rather than for it. Wel
coming such a class of immigrants to
the South will not only hamper the
South directly by adding to itscon
j sumptive population when produc
i tivity is demanded, but indirectly by
j checking the movement from other
j parts of the country which has as
sumed proportions of about 200,000
persons annually.

from the same physical disturbances,
and the nature of their duties, in
many cases, quickly drift them into
the horrors of all kinds of female
complaints, organic troubles, ulcera
tion, falling and displacements, or
perhaps irregularity or suppression
causing backache, nervousness, ir
ritability, and sleeplessness.
Women everywhere should re
member that the medicine that holds
the record for the largest number of
MRS. A. M. HAGERMANN actual cures of female ills is
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
made from simple native roots and herbs. For more than thirty years
it has been helping women to he strong, regulating the functions per
fectly and overcoming pain. It has also proved itself invaluable in pre
paring for child birth and the Change of Life.
Mrs. A. M. Hagermann, of Bay Shore, L. 1., writes:—Dear Mrs.
Pinkham: —“I suffered from a displacement, excessive and painful
functions so that I had to lie down or sit still most of the time.
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has made me a well woman so
that I am able tp attend to my duties. I wish every suffering woman
would try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and see what relief
it will give them.”
Mrs. Pinkham’s Standing Invitation to Women
Women suffering from any form of female illness are invited to write
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, for advice Who is the Mrs. Pinkham who
has been advising sick women free of charge for more than twenty
years, and before that she assisted her mother-in-law Lydia E. Pink
ham in advising. Therefore she is especially well qualified to guide
sick women back to health.
ANOTHER DEAL IN
SUMTER CO. REALTY
T. E. and A. D. Gatewood
Buy Page Place.
Another real estate deal of impor
tance was consummated yesterday
when the W. P. Page place, contain
ing 515 acres, was sold through the
real estate agency of Mr. Lee Allen
to Messrs. T. F. and A. D. Gale
wood, of Americus .The considera
tion was SB,OOO. The estate is sit
uated nine miles from Americus and
two miles from Huntington. The new
owners will run the farm, which is
a very fertile and productive one.
It was formerly owned by John R.
Gatewood. .
Two years ago the same property
was sold for $7,000, the deal yester
day showing an increase of nearly
15 per cent in value in two yearß
time. This tells the same story as
that of other recent large stransfers
of Sumter county property within the
past two weeks, during which two
transfers alone represented more than
$300,000 in values.
The enhancement in values in
, Sumter county farming lands indi
| cates in unmistakable terms the
, “boom” which is going on quietly in
I farming lands in this county. In
| vestments bring a larger return than
1 almost any form of profit-taking, be
