Strnek bN lightning.

The residence of DIR. j. NJ. Johnston,
corner Of Whitaker and Taylor streets,
was struck - lightning Monday evening.
The Doctor and his family were seated in
the hall on the west side of the house,
when dazzling flash oflightning, followed
without interval by a heavy peal of thun-
der mOmentarily shocked the entire party.
None of them were stunned, and In
an instant they realized that the building
had been struck and began to inquire
what the effect had been. The electric
fluid struck a metallic yentilatOr project
ing from the roof and followed down the
outside Of the building, passing within
few feet from where the family was sit
ting and thence TO the ground. No dam
age vas done TO the building and the fluid
left no marks except along the lower part
of the yentilatOF, where the paint was
burned and scOrched. While the party
seated i'm the hall were uninjuTed except
bv nervous prOstratiOn. a servant in a re-
mote part of the house rushed in unable to
move her arms, which were completely
DaPalvzed, 4 nurse with a child in the
DOctOr's Office, on the first floor, escaped
with scarcely perception Of the shock.
The lightning was plainly seen as IL played
down the wall and followed string with
a small metallic match box attached,
which one of the children had hung out OF
an uDper window, and left the box IN
balls. going toward the ground. IL was a
narrow escape for the entire family.

CANCER.
Strong Testimony from Gentleman
Whose Life has been Saved by the Use
of Swift's Specific.

Strong Testimony from GendIeman
Whose Life has been Saved by the Use
of swift's Specific.
Special Correspondence AtldRta (Gd.) Consti-
tuition, July p, 1883.
Mr.. w. X. Robson has been using
Swift's Specific for a cancer" said an ac-
quaintance to your reporter last week at
Davisboro, Ga, "and thinks it has cured
him; and as cancer is generally regarded
as incurable, you had better 90 to see him
and let the people know of it,"
Accordingly, / drove SIX miles and
found Mr.. Robson, introduced myself
and told him my GRAND. Mr.. Robson
replied;
'sYou can tell the Swift Specific folks
that their 5. ;. 5. has
SAVED MY LIFE,
and have such faith in its eventually
curing me, that | would not, for $4,000
cash, Obligate myself to quit taking it for
good. For twenty-five years | have suf-
fered beyond expression from cancer and
its effects, and have exhausted the whole
catalogue Of remedies. The medicines
seemed to feed instead of curing it, and it
grew gradually worse. The cancer was
on the left side of my neck, Just behind
the ear, and in time spread its poison
through my entire system. My neck was
stiff, the whole Of the upper part of my
body was full Of pain. and / had virtually
lost the use of both arms. My general
health had given way, and the cancer was
sapping my life away, and it was only a
question of time to myself and my friends
as to when life would yield to its ravages.
In this condition | began the use OF Swift's
Specific. and the first bottle relieved the
stiffness of my neck, and my general
health began to improve. BY the time
had finished the second bottle l had re-
gained the use of my arms, and felt like a
new man. The Specific drove the poison
out through the cancer, and relieved my
system of it in that way.
Il believe that Swifts Specific is the
greatest medicine ever discovered, and
that it is the only remedy known to sci
ence that will cure cancer, and it does
this bv forcing the poisoned blood out
through the pores of the skin. Twill take
pleasure in giving any information in my
power to other sufferers. MY address is
