his own medicine.
 He tried long and earnestly to interest men of capital in giving the medicine d larger sphere ana a more extensive manufacture. With this purpose in view he made prop os!tlons to quite a number of mon eyed men. North and South. and visited New York and other huan- cial centres. His efforts were un- awaiting. The medicine was lated to remain in the background until II became the arbitcr of it's own destiny. It was not the rep reSentations of Capt. S.. but the fame of $. 5. 5. that invoked the aid of MesSrS. Rankin X Lamar. Swift had about ceased to hope for assistance from any source what ever, and was Lowering over his kettles when the eyes of the pres eut company were directed to the marvellous effects of the medicine and it's phenominal popularity.
 That vas, l think, i'll 1879. \ labratory with the machinery nee eSsary for rapid manufacture Ot the medicine was erected at Il cost of 3l0O,O0O. Steam, with its tre- mendOus power, now reaches out to the afflicted thousands of bottles every day, and still. l understand, the demand calls for yet additional expense of manufacture Twenty years ago Capt, $, was poor and needed to struggle; now he Is rich and might we'll afford to rest, but that the suffering of this and other nations look largely to him for relief.
 One circum stance causes me to predict that Capt. s. is now but ill the beginning of his fortune, his medicine only ih the morning ot its history. Everywhere 1 go 1 hear of unadyertiSed and remarka- ble cures effected by "Switt's Spe- cilic," and this is compelled to be the experience of every man who travels and talks. For example, ] was going in buggy to town Sen. oia) few nlghts ago with Mr. John Mcknight, when the cOnyer- sation turned to the possibility of curing cancers.
 "fhey eau be cured,n said lie, II cured one, a genuine, well.de- Ncluped, long standing cancer, and it's been well several years, and the former victim is stout and healthy.n
 How did you cure itF" l asked.
 Il cured it with S. S. S"
 "Did you inform Swift of the cureT'
 "Why, no; what's the use! Swift knows his medicine will cure can cerS.'
 This incident is one of the num- berless prophecies that are daily predicting the future of Swift $ Specific. l might go much farther with this branch of the subject might show the expenses in 1879 at $50, ,0O0, and in 1886 of &250,0O0. l might enlarge upon these and many other facts, were 1 writing an advertisement, and though the medicine is a vital part of Capt s. biography. I shall now bid adieu to shat vital part and "throw phis- ics tl the dugSn
 On May 4th, iSS0, Capt. S, was married to Lena Burckhardt, of Atlanta, a lady of rare accomplish meuts, and more than all, a hand some, pure, lovely woman, "She is the daughter of G. A. Burck hardt, Esq, one of Atlanta's old est and best citizeus." Their union has been blessed with three pretty interesting little girls. l speak the words of SOberness and truth when 1 say that earth has not had happier home since Adam left the bowers of Eden.
 Silence rests upon these happy welded vears There is no hum ot the bees while they gather hon cy; anu so my task Is completed.
 shall not submit this manu. script 10 Capt. S If after puhii- cation he sees fit co adopt it in the family of fhisadvertiSenIents, will not object. If he becomes offend ed, l will regret that it has been written. If he pursues neither course. l will at least enjoy the satisfaction of knowing have contributed my mite towards the qualification of publ.c curiosity.
 Goodbye,
