Our Exhibit at Raleigh.

The Ne,cs & Observer Of Oct. 23rd,
said of the Scotland Neck exhibit:
The Scotland Neck Cotton Mills have
at the Exposition, in the Agricultural
Department display, beautiful exhibit
of their silk hose and other goods. They
are equal in texturs and beauty to any
of northern manufacture, and the COM
pany has large trade throughout the
North.'
The same paper of Oct. 9th says
further.
Decidedly one of the most attractive
exhibits to be seen at the exposition
and one which reflects great credit upon
the State is the display Of beautiful
colored silk hosiery in the Ar lcultural
Department, shown by the Scotland
Neck Cotton Mills. The EXHIBIT made
by the Scotland Mack Cotton Mills
speaks volumes for the Importance OF
the silk industry. The exhibit includes
silk ladies vests, hose and half hose in
the most delicate texture and c0lors,
ranging from SO cents TO "A uOildTS per
dozen. They are of the richest fast
colors ofall the new and attractive shades,
and make handsome show in the fine
glass show cases. The average spectator
at first supposes that the display is q
choice exhibit from some dry goods
house, and is always surprised upon be-
ing told that the goods are wholly Of
North Carolina manufacture. We have
seen nothing of Northern make t. surpass
these goods in quality, texture or style.
| The goods are handled in this city and
have a fine trade at the North, especially
In New York, Washington and Baltimore,
aud also through the South. Mr.. Ram
dolph, of the firm, is i'll charge of the
beautiful display. He has them taste.
fully arranged, and they show off witt
the most pleasing and artistic effect.
We are informed that the mills are al
ready paying good dividends.'

REN0VETHE- CAUSE.-It is NJ

REMOVETHE- CAUSE.-It is no
doubt the correct thing to treat the
symptoms of disease but this is not
effective unless the cause of the cons
plant is removed. For instance,
fever may be treated with quiuines etc.,
but unless the cause is removed TIE
fever WI surely return. Again, the
sores and eruptions of Scrofula may be
healed by mercury and potash treatment
but unless the cause of these symptoms
is cleaused from the the system, they

Swift Specific strikes at the cause of
the trouble, and forces out the germs of
disease, and the poison through the
pores al the 81 ia, and at the same time
builds up the general health Of the suf
ferer. Swift's Specific is purely vege-
table remedy, and Is harmless to the
most delicate, yet it never fails to elimi-
nate the poison from the human body.
