The usual symptoms of Scrofula are or larged glands of the neck, acres and ulcers on the body, skin affections, catarrhal troubles, weak eyes, and general poor health. The Inherited poison, transmitted through the blood pollutes and weakens this fluid, und in place of its nutritive qualities fill# the circulation with scrofulous matter, which saps the vitality Of the entire system. Thousands of children, born with a scrofulous taint, have spent their childhood Iu constant physical sutferlng, and grown to manhood or womanhood handicapped by ill health and stunted growth, and perhaps later some disease ol the bones or Joints developed. 8. S. 8. given in their early life, would have prevented this. It would have cleansed and purified the blood of the taint, nourished and stengthened their systems, and assisted each to grow Into strong, healthful manhood or womanhood. 3. 8.

ASHEVILLE ' WANTS A SOUTH ATLANTIC LEAGUE CLUB It Is learned on good authority that Asheville is anxious for South At lantic League ball, says the Knox ville Sentinel. The city of the Bky has supported some strong tndepend ent teams, but the fans have been clamoring for league ball. The field for a league the size of (he South Atlantic is very small, and Asheville looks to be the most eligi ble town in the South now without organised baseball. All leagues with the exception of the majors are undergoing constant changes. Jackson has an option on a Southern League franchise, and will probably get in next year. The South Atlantic League will doubtless be very much changed in 1910, and the! fans of East Tennessee are hoping that Asheville gets a franchise. The rivalry Incited between Chat tanooga, Knoxville and Asheville, It is said would turn Southern League) crowds In each of these places.

COMPANY 862 BROAD PHONE 183 / CAROLINA MERCHANT SUES FOR 20 CENTS Says Six Railroads Over charged Kim in Ship ment From Pennsylvania WASHINGTON, D. C.—Probabß the smallest claim for a refund of al leged overcharges by a railroad that was ever filed with the Inter-state Commerce Commission was received yesterday. it was a claim for the sum of 20 cents. It was presented through a firm of attorneys, and it required six foolscap folios of 'type writing to set forth all the facts in the case. The claimants are the Tyson & Jones Buggy company, of Carthage, N. C., who In December,' 1907, ordered some Iron wagon axles from Wilkes barre, Pa., and who were charged y freight rate of 54 cents a hundr./l pounds, when, they allege, the proper rate should have been only 52 cents per hundred pounds. In perpetrating this outrage six railroads were involved, and all ot them are made defendants in the pe tition to the commission. They are the Central Railroad company, of New Jersey; the Philadelphia and Reading, the Cumberland Vailoy, the Norfolk and Western, the Southern, and the Aberdeen and Asheboro railroad. In just what proportion these six roads should bear the responsibility for the 20 cents overcharge to the bug gy company is one of the problems before the Inter-state Commerce uont mission. It Illustrates the character of the cases which President Taft thinks the commission could be re lieved of through their transfer to a bureau in the Department of Com merce and Labor.

On Place Vesly there was a coming and going - of imperious looking men and their horses, sharp words of command rang out above the noise. Here and there an officer passed on horseback with clanking sword. The Bavarian Uhlans took possession of the village. They filed through the main street and took up their position in the ranks in the November sleet November, 1870. A shed sheltered the officers. Resting upon the handles of their swords they smoked and chatted. The general aspect of the surroundings was as cheerless as the weather. The poor houses of the large village looked uninviting and de. serted. Col. Von Ryden, followed by the majot entered the town hall to see the mayor. The regiment was to be quartered in the 150 houses of Vesly. Baker Ravard—six troopers. Gardener Paulmier—twelve troopers and horses. Innkeeper Candal—eight troopers and horses. Count dc Viilonglose? “Let us pass him by,” said the colo nel. “He is the owner of the chateau,” the mayor remarked. “Pass him by I say and go on.” The mayor was dumfounded. To be sure he had no ill feelings against the count, but the village suffered under this hostile invasion. If the numerous apartments and large estates of the chat eau were not to be used how was the mayor to find quarters for all these men and horses. The old dungeon in the castle, recently renovated, contained as much room as all the rest of the houses of the village. The mayor thought that the German of ficer who now treated the aristocrats with so much consideration, would be furious to hear that the old count, a former army officer, had re-entered the service at the outbreak of Ihe war, leav ing his wife and children behind to de fend his country. The work went on. When it was all done the colonel gave his orders to the major, pulled a map from his pocket studied it for a moment and mounted his horse. The mayor -was surprised to see him leave without asking any informa tion, ride down the main street anil turn left without hesitation. There was no doubt, he was going to the chateau. Galloping fast, the Uhlan indeed rode up the road leading toward the estate of Villenglosse. The eyes of the soldier grew dim and his heart felt heavy. He thought of a MONDAY, AUGUST 23 corner of foggy Bavaria where beloved beings were trembling with fear every time the door bell rang. Some day, per haps, a messenger of death would ap pear on the threshold. That would mean one more widow and three fatherless children, that far away on the field of honor a man had expired without a lov ing hand to close his dying eyes. It was a strange, sacred and painful mission which was taking him to Chateau Vitienglose. He had been at the side of the dying count, whose breast had been pierced by a rifle bullet. In a voice that was barely audible, the French officer had whispered into his ear his last will and last thoughts. He had promised to deliver into the hands of Countess de Vitienglose a locket which her husband had carried and some papers among which was an unfinished letter begun in the morning before his death. Behind the walls of the chateau now before him, a wife prays, hopes and waits the widow of the hero, dead as the knights, his ancestors, sword in hand The noble profile, which Baron Von Buyden had seen in the locket, the beau tiful face of Countess do Villenglose will soon burst into tears. He already suf fers at the thought of this sight, but he has promised, and he will deliver hrs sac red message; he must in person strike the cruel blow. He has crossed the threshold. He has sent in hts card is taken into a large apartment and Btands face to face with Countess de Vitienglose, dressed in mourning, as she has been ever since the outbreak of the war, her hand rest ing upon the shoulder of a child who looks at the strange officer with big, bewildered eyes. At his first words the young wife guesses everything and her tcrrfibllng fingers close around the locket and pa pers. She masters her emotion, how ever. She must hide her tears from tho enemy and she bows her head and kisses the forehead of her little son, who shall grow up and be a man when the hour of revenge comes. She repressed her sobs and raises her proud face, paler than Ivory. At the sight of this silent sorrow the Uhlan bows respectfully and withdraws, unable to speak a word. The sound of Ills clanking spurs Is heard first In the hall, then In the court yard. He mounts his horse and gallops away toward more scenes of blood and battle. “So you bought this parrot yester day?” "Y'es. I want to see if they live 100 years, as people say.”—Bon Viv ant.
