Th& Swift Specific Co. , Atlanta , Ga. : During the spring of 1871 , while working in the field at my home in Morgan county , Ga. , I pulled off my shoes to give my feet a rest. Unfortunately , I walked into a clump of poison oak , and in a few days my feet were in a terrible condition , and I could not put on a shoe because of the soreness and swelling. I was treated as poison oak cases usually are , and everything was healedup. Aboubthe same time the following spring , 1872 , my feet became sore again , as at first , and every succeeding spring for five years brought back the same condition of the dis ease , only each time it became more dis tressing , because I began to think it was a lifetime trouble. Finally , I was induced to try Swift's Specific. I took six botdes , and to-day am entirely well. My improvement was gradual from the first , and no evidence of the disease remains. I shall take pleas ure in testifying as to its curative proper- tics. It is the greatest blood purifier in ex istence. Yours truly , J. L. Morgan. The foregoing certificate is taken at random from thousands of letters in posses sion of the Swift Speciiic Co. , and presented simply as a sample. It is a voluntary statement , giving facts and results of the case. Its accuracy and genuineness are beyond question. A valuable Treatise on Blood and Slan Diseases mailed free.

" "Have you any idea of extending the lines out that way. " "No , they are not going out thero for any such purpose. They aro merely looking into matters connected with the operation of the road.

The following is a pledge from an old al manac of the voar 1837 : "Being satisfied from observation and ex perience , as well as from medical testimony , that ardent spirits as a drink , is not only need less , but hurtful , nnd that the entire disuse of it would tend to promote the health , the vir tue and the happiness of the community , we hereby express our conviction , that should the people of tho United States , and especially the young men , discountenance entirely the use of it. they would not only promote their own personal benefit , but the good of our country and the world.

Secretary Noble of the Interior depart ment has decided that persons intending to settlo in Oklahoma may be allowed to cross tho Cherokee strip to the northern boundary of the now territory , and that no obstructions be placed in the way of immigrants who desire to journey in good faith , In a quiet , orderly and peaceful manner , along the public high ways , post or military roads , or established and customary cattle trails by which the out let is traversed. It is held by Secretary Noble that settlers are entitled to as much consider ation as has been shown to cattlemen and others heretofore , and this position will ap peal very strongly to a popular sense of j ustice. It is a source of sincere congratulation that President Harrison has placed at the head of the Interior department a man who is in sympathy with the people , and who would scorn to sacrifice their interests for his own. > A person Is seldom sick , when their bowels are regular.and never well when they are ir regular.

Against the Australian voting system one objection has at last been found , and that is that the voter who is unable to read or write will not know for whom he is voting. Now that is an objection as Is an objection , and of course comes from a democratic source. This objection ought to be met by a law debarring from suffrage those who cannot read tho bal lot they place in the box. Property qualifica tion Is unjust , but an educational qualifica. tion can have no objection urged against it , except by politicians who hope to profit by tho votes of tho ignorant and vicious classes. But even supposing the voter cannot read , tho Australian system would decrease materially tho chances of his being bribed , and this is the sole or main object of tho bill.
