The Acworth News and Farmer of this . week says: Mrs. Elizabeth Baker, living within three miles of Acworth. remarked that Vanderbilt's fortune could not bny from her what six bottles of Swift's Specific has done for her. Her statement is as follows: For thirty-one years I have suffered almost death from that hor? rible disease, scrofula. For years I was unable to do anything in keeping up my domestic affairs. Last October I was in? duced to try Swift's Specific, and used two bottles. ai;d was so much benefited by it that I purchased four more from Messrs. Northcut & Johnson, which has almost entirely relieved me. I feel like 1 a new person, and can do all my own housework. Before I took tbe S. S. S. my life vras a burden, as my entire person was covered with sores, and in this mis? erable condition.I did not caro to live. I bad tried every known remedy, and my case was generally .regarded as incurable. I had been treated by the best physicians to no avail. I most heartily recommend Swift's Specific to the afflicted. Messr s. Northcut & Johnson, merchants at Acworth, say: We know Mrs. Eliza? beth Baker personally; we are familiar with her case. She is highly esteemed in this community. r Rheumatism Twenty Years. I have been a sufferer from rheumatism for twenty years, at times with almost in? tolerable pain. I had the best medical treatment, and took all sorts of remedies, but without relief- Being reduced almost to a skeleton, and not being able to walk even with crutches, I was induced to try Swift's Specific, and it acted like a charm, and I am to-day entirely relieved. Have thrown away my crutches, and am in ex? cellent health. I believe Swift's Specific will cure tbe worst cases of rheumatism. Mrs. Ezra Mershon. Rheumatism for Twenty Year.". Thomson, Ga., Aug. 16, 1S84.?I used three bottles of your Swift's Specific for a forty years, standing case of rheumatism. After taking throe bottles I was able to plow.

Dec 18, 1884 28 IN thanking our many friends, and the public generally, for the liberal patronage given us last Pall, we wish to say a few words in reference to our policy during the coming Spring. We have established what; we call "THE ONE PRICE CASH SYSTEM." We buy our Goods in large quantities, aud by paying cash for them get the advantage of all discounts, and are therefore enabled to sell at the very lowest possible figures. In order to do this we are obliged to sell STRICTLY FOR CASH. We know that men who are perfectly good for their contracts sometimes get out of mccey, and while we appreciate their kindness in offering to trade with us, and would be glad to accommodate them in any other way, yet in order to carry out our system, and keep our Stock full in every Department, we will be forced to decline to sell even them on time. None" can fail to see that this plan will work to the mutual advantage both ol? ourselves and our friends; for, as we take no risks, we can, as a matter of course, afford to sell cheaper than we could otherwise. We would also remind the good people of this City and County that anything a gentleman needs in the way of Wearing Apparel can always be found at our Establishment; and as the Spring approachee, and men usually like to look their best in that Season, we shall pay special and particular attention to latest styles.
