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

At last, said the advertisement Dr.
Bellamy recommended S.S V S., which
was taken and a wonderful cure

whole thing was false, and Dr. Bel¬

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 "

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

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

limbs were badly swollen and inflamed , and
the sores discharged largo remedy quantities I tried of

with the result that the sores are healed,
and my general health greatly improved.

in testifying to the wonderful efficacy
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, not only in the cure
of this lady, but in his own case and
many others within his knowledge.
The well-known writer on the Boston Herald,
B. W. Ball, of Rochester, N.H., writes, June
7,1882:
“ Having suffered severely for some years
with Eczema, and having failed to find relief
from other remedies, months, I have of made use, during
the past three Ayeu’s Sarsapa¬

corrupted condition of the blood, and a weak¬
ened vitality.
It is incomparably the cheapest blood medi¬
cine, on account of its concentrated strength,
and great power over disease.
