Hade Plainer,
Last week it was published in this paper
(hat the Sheriff was suing the County
Commissioners for wages which he claims
is due for attendance upon the court
Ordinary, and it waa stated that "previ¬
ously the Ordinary's court has been con¬
ducted without the aid of Sheiiff or olher
officer than the court himself."
Of course we meant that tho ordinary
occasionally held a session of his court
without requiring the assistance of the
sheriff. He was obliged to have the
services of the sheriff at some sessions of
his court. Too sheriff is obliged to serve
whenever be is called upon, and Ordinary
Wright lias eoeu fit to require his services
at each and every session of the ordinary’s
court.

Swift’s Speeifi is a simple vegetable
compound, prepared from roots gathered
freshly from the forest and contains noth¬
ing of the mineral kingdom or any poison¬
ous substance or any article at all which
comes from the chemist's labratory.
The formula of the remedy was obtained
from tbe Greek Indians’ in Middle Ga. by
reliable, white men, who had witnessed tho
wonderful cures made by that tribe of
Indians of blood dipeaso. Mr Hugh L
Dennard of Houston Go Ga, began using
Bivift’s Specific in 1829 and continued its
use all his life and asserted that t,e had
never known it to fail to cure any case of
scofula blood taint or contagions blood poi¬
son. This testimony has been corrohara
ted every day for years. The present Com¬
pany was formed in 1879 and have since
made known to tho world the virluros of
Swift’s Specific and to-day it is sold in ev
ery city, town and country store all over
America Great Britian, and many other
portions of .the world.
I have seen Swift’s Specific used and
known of many cases of tho worst form
of blood diseases which have been cured bj r
it I know the proprietors to be gentlemen
of the highest type and utmost reliability.
I reccommend ii as a great blood remedy
unequalled bv anything that I know of.
