Figures Tell the Tale
For the sake of satisfying some people who have got it into
their craniums that Swint is losing out in the grocery busi
ness, I wish to submit a statement of my cash receipts for
the first four months last year and the first four months this
year, which is as follows—
1914
January, $2,428.00
February, 1,940.00
March, - 2,142.00
April, - 2,208.00
1915
January, $2,673.00
February, 2,407.00
March, - 2,453.00
April, - 2,684.00
The above figures are correct. You don’t have to take our
word for it. Ask Cashier Goodrum, of the Newnan Banking
Co. We don’t put on much style, or cut as many scallops
as some of our competitors;—neither do we claim to have
the grocery business of Newnan sewed up, but we do claim
to be getting our share of it, as the above figures will show.

Pipefish Haa “Pocket."
The pipefish, as It is called, from
the length of its jaws, has a pocket on
the under side of its body nearly half
its length. It is found in the male
species only, and is the only part of
its body which is unprotected by large
flat plates, which take the place of
scales in its protective armor. In this
pocket the young fish are carried very
similar to the way the ltaagaroo car
ries its young.

Kidney Trouble Causes
Intense Suffering.
Sixteen years ago I was taken sick
with kidney trouble and suffered terri
bly for thr.e months. I did not work
during this time, and was mostly con
fined to the bed. After using other
remedies I finally tried a, bottle of
Swamp-Root. I immediately began to
feel better, and after using seven 50-
cent bottles was entirely cured, and
have had no kidney trouble since. I can
truly say that I owe my good health to
Swamp-Root. You may publish this
letter for the benefit of other people
afflicted as I was with the hope of
bringing to their attention this most
won, erful remedy.
