Trinity church was crowded to overflowing Bur-day morning, when Rev. Ham Jonea walked into the pulpit. Ho pmachod n strong and cbnracteristloaerman on tho text, "What do I wait for? My hope is in God.” uositdpeoplo delay doing their duty and leading bstter Uvea on variou* pretexts. One fellow la too go.xl — don't need rrligion. I have seen his kind bo fore md when he ia once stirred the least bit he become* too bsd to try to bo saved. Ho ia always either too good or too bad. Botweou tboae two extremes tho devil swings him Hko a pendnlom, and he goes aa fast that no pswtr ou earth can stop him. Another fellow waita because ho wants tho oborch to get into better condition. I guoss be ia »h# nt ai fair a specimen of a big fool as you can And. I believe with old Brother Richard* Bon that the meanest member of the church is tatur than sack a man, for it is aomeUtiogJ art to make an effort in the right direction. Wnat are you waiting on the church for? Why don’t ycu folks who know so well what tho churoh ought to bo coma into it and art it right? When ym compare yourself to a Christian you pall out come poor, little, knotty, broken up follow and cay: "Look hero, 1 am going to measure.” Ar.«l you lay this poor little Cbriatfan down and iay down beside him and say: "Head aud brad. I am es tall aa he is.” Why don't you pull out some good man from tho church and mcRinrn with him? Yon would look like a rat terrier by bb elephant. [Laughter.] Horae folk* ato mean enough to wait because they don’t want any new tax, flosneia! or otherwise, put upon them. There ia very llttlo’forco In that objection hero In Atlanta. If thoroisapiaca in this world where It coats littlo to be a Chris* tfan it is Atlanta. Why, you can run it • wbole yesr here on what it would cost to got drank otic night. You ran ba a Christian % whole year /or leaa than it will coat you to bo an old red noce drunkard one month.

Its manufacture and its active operations arc yet restricted to America, bnt that ouly make* America the heart from which this vital Quid ia pulled out through the arteries of a sentient world. Yea the ran never sets on Swift's Spcclffc, and its "going forth” may be compared to the move ments of that Oriental bird which is said to feed and sleep and live forever on the wlag. Under these elreumsuncea we find no canoe for surprise in tbo universal inquiry: "Who is Bwlltf' and no reason why the queatlon should remain longer unanrwered.” I hare known "Swift” ever sines he buttoned on hi* flrst surpendrm. I knew his parents sad kin dred in the long ago, aud enjoyed tha hospitality of his father's home when "Tom" was but a "broth of a boy.” 1 also lived in Houston county when tbe Indians were coming and golug, raw them occasionally and slept under the roof whero. I was afterwards told, they left the formula of S. 8. S. I was told this by a perron who had no connection with Cap tain Swift, and no Interest fn his fortune. I know the biography of the man and the history of the medicine, and without reward or tbe hope thereof, without any solicitation from him or any reference to the & 8.8, further than It bean upon tha story of hi* life, I now comply with tho earnest and universal demand of tbo publie and furnish this brief BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OP OPT.*IN OTARZ.ISI TnOXAN SWIFT. C. T. Swift was born near Madison, Ga., fn Mor gan county. His grandfather, Thom is Swift moved to that county from Virginia many years •go, and, after a protracted life devoted to heroic •truggloa and Christian duties, died, leaving his family in comfortable circumstances. Judge Wm. T. Swift, hi* oldest son. is the father of Thomu; his mother's maiden name was Elizabeth Farlow; she Is a sister of celonol T. V. Furlow, of Ameri- cut, who, In MCtt, was a formidable competitor of tbo Bon. Joceph E. Brown for governor of Goor* gla. When Thomas was three years old, hi) parents moved to Alabama, and settled near Salem, where thoy remained seven years. At this piece, at the •ge of five years, tho callow pharmacist buckled on his flist satchel and started to school to a Mr. Dodson, who mado his academy a Babel by theold fashioned plan of stndylng aloud. It was under the inspiring nude of Mr. Dodson'* switch that "Tom” took his flrst lotson In dancing, and so vivid were tbo^mpresilous of those early event* that even now hd sect the benignant face of that beloved teacher every, time he goes to sleep on an overloaded stomach. Ou such occarioas hi* gen erally wakes to ilud hlra-olf Rlngiug: "Thy bright smile* haunts me still," Mr. Dodson taught two yoar* aad way succeeded by • Mr. Lyons, who kept school bit a short time. Hows* followed by Miss Yates, a northern lady who Is yet living. Jttdgo Swift then owned a lanyard la partner ship with Mr. Nathan Aldridge. The lanyard was three mites from tho judgo's residence. He redo a mare to the tanyard every inorulug; sometimes leaving her six months colt iu tho posture and ronu times letting it follow. Tom had petted the colt, lifted It* fora foot and ted it abmt by tbe mane until he considered It a model ot ductility and siibmtsslvencsx. One day,in hir soventh year, he found the colt alone lu Us usual gnzlng quar ters and decided to Introduce a new feature fn tho programme by makings tour of the pasture ou horseback. With no bridle, no saddle; nothing to bold on to but a duck-legged undeveloped sample of a maue, he sprang from a Mump aud landed on tbo back of his pet. The colt was surprised at this performance, "rfurprls* ed" docs uot express it,uor do all all the word* in all the languages express tbe astonishment of that"leet!e hoss." Us leaped thefencc like adoT and without inquiring about tbe roads bnke through woods end flcldr, over ditcher and lojq broke, yea, »hot himself at tho tanyard. Tom prc.«»cd bis little stomach to the colt'* wither*, tried to tangle his feet in Us flanks, and tried, or would have tried to tie his arms in a hud knot arour.d iu neck To tat go or to hold on m equally dangerous. In either event he had no leisure to calculate where be would probably land or whero he’d sail to. Fortunately the little fellow never thought of praylog. He only knew two prayers, "Now I lay me down forte ep." «nd "Lord, make us thankful for wbst we'ro about to receive.” Neither of there would rail his case, aud it waa fortunate that be was no at this critical moment embarrassed with tho necessity of religious, on tbo top of othtr very active exercises. On, on, on wanttho hurrleane colt, and where the ground wan hard and unobstructed hlimpidity was such tnat his legs looked like so many knitt ing needles. Tom stuck closer than a postage stamp or a po rous plaster, and tho only danger wai that a collta Ion would occur or tho bide ot tho colt would slip. So, after what seemed to be about fifty year*, Tom beard tha friendly whinny of tbe marc aud pro ceedings were amicably adjusted by the "wboai" of the workmeu at tho lanyard. Tom never after wards wanted to Jous tho cavalry; for oo that o:c*- •ton his father mustered him out of oorvieo with a mustard that burned. From Salem, Judge Swift moved to Terry, Hois- fon connty. Georgia, where be yet redden. Tom went to ichool here five years to Mr. Jtm Dunhaiu and two yean to Profevor J. K Croalin.
