At Atlanta two suits have been filed against the Swift Specific Com¬ pany, one for $$5,000 and the others for §10,000 damages. Dr. W. C. Bellamy sues for the former amount, and Mrs Annie P. Stewart sues for §10,000. The alleged damage con¬ sisted in the publication of a certain advertisement by the Sv. iet Specific Company, going to show that lhe specific bad effected a most wonder¬ ful cure of hydrophobia in Mrs Stewart. Mrs Stewart, so said the advertisement, was bitten by a cat, and developed a strange disease. She would, it was said, get down on the floor and crawl around and endeavor to catch rate Then she would purr, mew, and do a great many thigs suggestive of the cat. At last, said the advertisement Dr. Bellamy recommended S.S V S., which was taken and a wonderful cure effected The plaintiffs say the whole thing was false, and Dr. Bel¬ lamy brings suit for §25,000 for bis damaged name, and Mrs. Stewart brings suit for'§10,000 for like in¬ jury to her. CLAYTON. JONESBORO NEWS. Miss. Pauline Dunlap left for her home in Atlanta, last Tuesday after a week with friends in Jonesboro. Mr. W. D. Barton never forgets his paper man, but always eome3 around, to the very day, and pays for his paper, in advance. Mrs. Fred Young, and Mrs. Mat tie Sehikan, are visiting the family of Mr. E. L. Hanes, and other re¬ latives and friends in our little city G WIN NET. HERALD W. I). Jenks store house was bro¬ ken into last Sundy night, thirty or forty dollars worth of good stolen. Col. Simmons is standing at the door w’ith his hat off waiting for some body to ask him to run for the Legislature where is “Justitia pro bono publico” and the balance of the boys. The supper given by the ladies at the Post Office was an elegant affair and netted about thirty four dollars to be applied to the improvement of the Methodist church. It is understood that the Grand Juo have been canvassing the pro¬ priety of establishing a county court, We have been unable to ascertain whether any definit action has been taken. Thq most industrious class of men we know of is the professional house swapper. He will stand all day in the rain or wade knee deep in the mud to swarp one skeleton for another. Mr. W. E. Estes, who lives in the upper part of this county, had a two year old child to fall in a avoII last Monday, and it came very near being drowned, but the timely appearance, and descent into the well, of Mr. Estes saved the child from a horrible deth. T. D. McKomn called our attenton to a strange freak of nature the other day, in the shape of a ehiekn. which had four visible legs, aud which was hatched at the home of Mr. G. B. lluie in the upper part of this county. Wonderful indeed are the freaks of nature. Another Triumph. | I A GREAT INVENTION THAT WILL PROVE VALUABLE TO FARMERS. The Constitution recognizes the fact that the Georgia farm of to-day is not by any means the Georgia farm of ten years ago. And if a far¬ mer of 25 years ago were to be sud¬ denly bounced down to to-day, with¬ out any warning, he would imagine that he had been transported to a new and strange world. And so if a farmer of to-day w T ere to be set back for 25 years, he would think he was in no w r orld at all. So great have been the advancement, that the entire system of doing farm work in the south has been oompletely revolu¬ tionized, The introduction of im¬ proved farm machinery, the advance¬ ment of the intelligence of the peo¬ ple, a better condition of the country, have so altered things that many im¬ provements now eoming out are of¬ ten unnoticed, being taken simply as a matter of fact. This reporter was led into making these remarks by having seen yes¬ terday a most valuable invention in the bands of Mr. J. S. Daniel, of Conyers. Mr. Daniel’s invention is a gin feeder end cotton cleaner, and for thorough complete workings, is certainly ahead of anything yet seen by the reporter, and this is said, not in order to mislead any one, but sim¬ ply because it seemed to cover the points which other cotton cleaners have not had ; and because it has the additional advantage of being within the reach of all who appreciate the value of improved machinery. Said Mr. Daniel to the reporter : “There has always seewed to be some little something needed in every other invention of this kind that invariably detracted not so much from their real merit as from the power of the average farmer to pur¬ chase them. The Daniel cotton feeder and cleaner seems to have cov¬ ered every valuable point left out of the others, in that it not only does better work than the average, but also comes very much lower in price. “The average cost of cotton seed cleaners on the marl et ranges from §60 to §90, and will pfobably aver¬ age §75, as the Daniel gin feeder and cleaner can b 3 put on any gin at a cost of not over $20—the claims it has for consideration will readily be understood by those who see it. Then, too, other cleaners take up an extra amount of room, while the one mentioned here takes up very little, if any, more room then the gin "itself, being attached to it in a very small space. To continue the comparison still further, the usual cotton cleaner requires extra hands to feed it and to take the cotton after it is cleaned, to place it in the gin. The Daniel invention does away with all this by being attached to the gin, feed¬ ing itself as the cleaned cotton comes out of the cleaner.” “Can it be put on any gin?” “Yes, I have already saicl that it could. It is as well adapted to one as another.” “What are some other advantages " • , , ^ 1 M ell, ot . one its strongest is that, when one introduces it into a neighborhood, his neighbor has got to buy one also, beeause be cannot afford to see the fin,„ man getting from one half to two cents per pound move or bis cotton.” “Will it increase the value of cot¬ ton that much?” “Yes, and by actual test with some of the worst storm cotton you ever saw. It is bound to increase the value of any cotton that is run through it.” “How does it feed?” “Just the same as any other. The carrier and feed box is the same as other cleaners. The larger feed roll is the same as others also, but in stead of the larger feed roll feeding into the gin the ordinary feeder does this has a small cylinder below with teeth which runs at a high rate of speed, making 1,200 revolutions per ;zs; r: bar. L nder the small cylinder is a perforated wire, 10 let the sand and dirt pass into a box underneath. I There is a flue connected with the sand box, which passes to the fan, and the dust is then carried out of the building. The fan is under the feed, entirely out of the way, and not visible; the flue is also out of the way.” “Where will you manufacture them ?” “We are going to make them in Atlanta, and will have a lot ready by next fall.” “Have you every confidence in the success of the invention?” “Absolutely; there is simply noth¬ ing yet invented that can in anyway touch its advantages. Everybody who has seen it, pronounces it the best ever made. I have shown it to some of the best farmers in the state and the verdict ha3 always been what I say. A leading machine man of Atlanta told me to-day that he con¬ sidered it the best thing he ever saw. Mr. Daniel will gladly answ'er my correspondence in regard to the ma chiae that may be addressed to him at Ga. SCROFULA and all scrofulous diseases, Sores, Erysipe¬ las, Eczema, Blotches, Ringworm, Tu¬ mors, Carbuncles, Boils, and Eruptions of the Skin, are the direct result of an impure state of the blood. To cure these diseases the blood must bo purified, and restored to a healthy and na¬ tural condition. Ayeu’s Saksapakiela lias for over forty years been recognized by emi¬ nent medical authorities as the most pow¬ erful blood purifier iu existence. It frees the system from all foul humors, enriches and strengthens the blood, removes all traces of mercurial treatment, and proves itself a complete master of all scrofulous diseases. A Recent Cure of Scrofulous Sores. “Some months ago l was troubled with scrofulous sores (ulcers) on my legs, The limbs were badly swollen and inflamed , and the sores discharged largo remedy quantities I tried of offensive matter. I used Every Saksapakilla, failed, until Ayeu’s of which I have mow taken three bottles, with the result that the sores are healed, and my general health greatly improved.
