At Green Shob s, 20 miles south

there has stood mar the haul’ of,
the stream an uninhabited ore- I
h cry. two room 1 g hou’e that '
few p ople passed in tl.e daytime
and no one went within eight of

these o.casion were such that few
cared to investigate. Last night I
this house of horrow caught fire

raged no one endeavored to subdue
it.
HORRIBLE AFFAIR.

The prisoners were tied to the

WINSTON SENSATION
Reynolds Feels He Does N t
Need Exonorati n,
Winston. N . C. Nov. 24.—Mr.
R. .1 Reynolds has just returned
from a business trip and upon
cal iug his attention to the sensa
tional st-ry as to his offering half
j <>f his estate as a reward for the
id n’ity of the author of the
j libelous scandal he says he
apprec.ia'es the good int ntici s of
the reporter of tl.e country
but such a reward is Lot in keeping
*i;h his attitude in the matter.
Mr. Reynolds might be induced
to offer a small reward in the in-
I lerest of 'he society to capture thi*
scandal monger, but he does not
feel that his character amci g those
who know him needs exoneration.

Mother’s Friend
; is the best help you can use at this time.
It is a liniment, and when regularly ap
plied several months before baby comes,
it makes the advent easy and nearly pain
less. It relieves and prevents ‘' morning
sickness,” relaxes the overstrained mus-
I eles, relieves the distended feeling, short
ens labor, makes recovery rapid and cer
tain w’ithout any dangerous after-effects.
Mother’s Friend is good for only one
purpose, viz.: to relieve motherhood of
danger and pain.

Scrofula
Is a deep-seated blood disease which
all the mineral mixtures in the world
cannot cure. S.S.fi. (guaranteed purely
vegetable ) is a mzZ blood remedy for
blood diseases and has no equal.
Mrs. Y. T.. Buck, of Delaney, Ark., had
Scrofula for twenty-five years and most
of the time was under the care of the
doctors w’ho could not relieve h«r. A
f specialist said he
could cure her, but
lie f’kd her with
arsenic nud potash
*,* which almost ruined
her constitution. She
j) then took nearly
£>v . ■ every so-caljed blood
i jrr-- medicine and drank
them by the wholesale,
x they d 4 not reach
,1 cr. trouble. Some
f . erre'advised her to try
S.S.S. and she very
soon found that i.e had a real blood
remedy at last. Si- s.; : “After tak
ing one do’en bottles of S.S.S. I am
perfectly well, my sj in is clear
and healthy and J would not be in
my former conditipi: for two thousand
dollars. Instead of drying upthepois'-o
in my systerfi, like the potash and
arsenic, S.S.S. drove the disease out
through the skin, and I was perma
nently rid of it.”
A Real Blood Remedy.
S.S.S. never fails to cure Scrofula,
Eczema, Rheumatism Contagious Blood’
Poison, or any disorder of the blood.
Do not rely upon a simple tpnic to cure
a-deep-seated blood disease, but take a
real blood remedy.
