Here is another case showing that there ore few remedies which cure deep- seated blood diseases. Eczema is one of the most obstinate blood troubles. S. S. S. wipes out completely this dis ease, as well as all other evidences ol impure blood whether obstinate or mild. There are few men better known all over DeKalb county than Mr. E. D. Jen kins who resides at Lithonia Georgia. He is the owner of a tjuarry of the celebrated Lithonia granite, which Is so extensively used in several States, and is acknowledged to have no superior as a paving stone. His family has lived in DeKalb for forty years and everybody knows them. “Ever since she was a year old,” he •aid, in a recent interview, “my daughter, Ida, has suffered from Ec zema, and I have never heard of a worse case of this dreadful disease.

At JOHNSON’S MUSIC PAULOK. of Carroll 4 Stacy’■ Bank IDA JENKINS. teen years #he has been badly broken out all over her body, causing her un told suffering, and frequently rendering her unable to attend school. Her arms and limbs would crack open and bleed, then dry up and scale off by the hand ful, and at one time an awful sore ap- { >eared on her ear, which became severe- y inflamed and almost dropped off. The disease also broke out on her bead and her hair was a continuous mass of scales. Her condition was truly pitia ble. “Of course we have done all we could to relieve her, and have given her al most every known treatment. She has taken potash mixtures and various salves and external applications by the whole sale, and almost every so-called blood remedy, all without the slightest benefit, and year by year we could not feel the slightest eu».v,_"""ement that •he would ever be well. I was aq. i^. 1 •everal times to send lier to Hot Springs, and also to a celebrated spring in Michi gan, and was told that this was the only chance on earth of her ever beiug cured, as the disease was too aggravated to be checked by medicines. “A few months ago, someone recom mended S. S. S., and as soon as her sys tem had taken on the effects of tins medicine, an improvement was noticed. She grew better all the while and con tinued to improve in every way We were delighted to see her so much bet ter and for the first time felt that she would get well. The medicine was con tinued a while longer, and now' she is cured sound and well, her skin is clear and pure, and she has been saved from what threatened to blight her life for ever. The cure is all the more remark able because she inherited the disease, which has been in our family for several generations, and I am happy to find in S. S. S. a cure for a uiseas which all the specialists in the world fail to cure. I consider S. S. S. a most wonder ful remedy, and it certainly has no equal for deep-seated blood diseases which all other remedies do not seem to touch.” This experience is like that of all others who seek relief from the many so-called blood purifiers, only to be discouraged. It is but folly to expect a cure from this dreadful disease by the use of salves, lotions, or any external application. The disease is in the blood, and only a blood remedy can eliminate it. S. S. S. is a real blood remedy, guaran teed purely vegetable, and for real deep- seated blood diseases, has no equal. It cures permanently Scrofula, Tetter, Rheumatism, and all of the many blood diseases. It has made some truly re markable cures of Cancer, full accounts of which can be had on application; our valuable books on blood and skin dis eases will also be sent free to any ad- oress. Swift Specific Company, Atlanta, Georgia. That the people of this section in- ten t to have a new eounry, if com pliance to the new constitutional law means that they will get it, there can be no doubt. Tuesday morning a corps of effi cient surveying engineers under the command and supervision of Prof. R O. Sams left the city to begin the -urvey of the proposed new county. The cops is composed of Walton Lip scomb, Joe McArthur, Willie Thomp son ami Henry Smith. The survey ors will begin at Smith’s Ford on Broid River, go down Broad River to the mouth of Pacolet and come up Pacolet to a point above Pacolet mills and thence to the North Carolina line. It is believed that it will take two weeks to complete the survey. A map will then be prepared und a pe tition presented to the Governor to order an election on the subject. There is little doubt but that the measure will be carried by an over whelming vote but the election should bo as near unanimous us pos sible for a thing of that character to he and with that end in vi«w every citizen who has the welfare of him self and his neighbor at heart should ;i> to work and endeavor to induce the few who are opposed to it to •hangc their views. The strong jx hits in favor of a new county are: The close proximity to the place where your legal business is to be transacted; The reduction or elimination alto gether of expensive railway and hoard ing house or hotel fares; The lapidity with which your legal business can be executed; And numerous others that would require columns of space to merithm Besides it will help every citizen vilhin its bounds. It will make a bet ler home market for the product of the fanner. It will enable a per son to come to town, transact busi ness and return home tin* same day.

Some of the pastors in Ga.Tney met recently and agreed to request all the citizens in the communitt :•> meet on the of November a\ 1 hold a thank-giving service unt * God for his wonderful blessings daring the past year. We are enjoined to do this: “0 give thunks unto the Lord, for he is good; for his mercy endur- eth forever. O that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the child ren of men.”—Pa. 100; 1-18. The following brethren are re quested to give utterance to what ever may be impressed on their hearts to say: W. F. McArthur. R. O. Fams. II. P. Griffith, G. M. Boyd. C. E. Robertson uudJ. W. Walker. Prof. W. L. Jc dinson is requested to col’ect the choir and furnish the music for the occasion. And since it is not enough for us simply to meet and sing and talk ami pray, therefore let us all make a liberal donation to the poor in our midst. Let us so act that the needy may say of us, “For 1 was an hungered, and ye gave me meat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink; 1 was a stranger and ye took mein; naked, and ye clothed me; 1 was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison and ye came unto me.”—Matt. 25:35-39. Miss L. 0. Budd. Miss Fanny Jones, Mrs. Hilliard Smith and E. R. Cash are requested to receive and distrib ute any contributions which may b made. Anything left at Tin: Ledole office will be handed over to theabovi commit tee. We all should bear in mind tha* this work of charity is not for tin benefit of “tramps” and “deadbeats,” but for the real worthy, needy per sons in our community. Somi; or the Pastors. Your cut c.
