On Apill 14 the attorney for the defendant filed a motion for a change of venue and the transcript , which is certified by Justice Crosby , shows that at 5 20 p m on the same day Miss McMullen was brought Into court , where she elated that she was indebted to the defendant In the sum of $ S 80 , which she was compelled to pay Into court. On April 20 the paitles appeared and the motion for a change ot venue was sustained , hut the $ S SO was re tained to cover costs amounting to $810 When the suit was tried It was. dismissed but the $ S SO that had been paid in by MltH Me Mullen vvao never recovered. The matter was brought to the attention of the noarel of County Commissioners where.

The peaceful citizen underwent the usual con sternation at the sight of a large pumpkln- face peering into his window , and the shop keeper hurried to his dcor to Investigate th" tick-tack , as of old The unwary passerbv was saluted with the historic pea-gun and a shower of pellets , and the necessity for the householdei to extract his gate from the treetop was likewise not lacking But no serious property damage was done and all went merrily to the old accompaniment 01 bonfires , baKed apples and inlrroiu. Tomorrow being really Allhallows dav the ceremonies incident to It would consequsntlv be due tonight. The present generation , howcvci , has shown a disposition , as on th'4 rourth , to settle the matter by a tluee- days' session.

Though its offensive features are sometimes almost unbearable , few people aie aware of the danger of which Catarrh is the fore runner. Catarrh is invariably leads to Consumption. Growing worse and worse each winter , those who rely upon the usual treatment of sprays , washes and inhaling mixtures find that it 13 impossible to check the disease with these local applications which only reach the surface. The offensive discharge increases all the while , causing a feeling of personal defilement , and gets deeper and deeper until it is only a question of n short time until the lungs are affected. The importance of the pioper treatment can therefore be read ily appreciated. But no good whatever can be expected from local applications , as such treatment never did cure Catarrh , and never will. Being n blood disease of the most obstinate nature , Swift's Specific ( S. S. S. ) is the only remedy which can have the slightest effect upon Catarrh , "I Iiail such n severe case of Cnlnrrh thnt I lostJny _ hearing > n one ear , and part of the bone in niy nose slouched off , I was con stantly trc-nteel with sp ays and washes , but each winter the disease seemed to have a firmer hold on ne. I hud finally been de clared incurable when I decided to try S.S.S. It seemed to get right at the seat of the dis- J ease , nnd cured me permanently , for I have had no touch of Catarrh for seven years. " Mns. JoSfU'HiNK Poum/ , , Due West , S , C. Those who have had the first touch of Catarrh will save endless suffering by taking the right remedy at the outset. Others who have for years sought relief and found only disap pointment in local treatment will find it wise to waste no further time on sprays , washes , inhaling mixtures , etc. , which are only temporary and cannotsaye them from Consumption. They should take a remedy which will cure them because it can reach their trouble. S. S. S. is the only remedy which can reach Catarrh ; It gets at the very bottom of the disease and cures it permanently. Books sent free by Swift Specific Co. , Box Y , Atlanta , Ga.
