Georgia, Terrell County, Ordinary's
Office, July 9Th, 1897-It has been rep
resented to me that the estate of Hattie

Out
For Cancer!

Few people are born entirely free from
blood faint. This is often very slight or
remote, and sometimes may not develop
at all in one generation, but breaks out
in a serious disease later.
Cancer, the most dreaded of all dis
eases, is often the result of some blood
faint inherited from generations back.
1t often appears as a mere mole or in
significant pinple, which later develops
into an alarming condition. No one
knows but that he may be subject to an
inherited i1npurity in the blood, nor can
he tell whether or not this may some
day crop out in the form of destructive
cancer. It is, therefore, important that
any little sore or scratch, which does
not readily heal be given prompt atten-
ton, or a serious condition may result
Mr. R. F. Williams, of Gillsburg,
Miss, was the victim of malignant
cancer, which first appeared in the man
ner above described. He writes:
cat first I paid no attention to the
little blotches on my face, thinking they
would soon pass away. Before long,
however, they became sore, and soon
began to enlarge. I applied ordinary
local remedies, but they had no effect,
and then consulted a physician. When

HALF RATES FOR PENSIONERS.

Ordinary Roberts Notified That Approprfa
ton Is Not Sufficient to Meet All Claims.
A large number of INDECENT pensioners
OF The state will have to go on half "a
tions for the present.
1t appears that the number of appi-
cants under the INDECENT pension act far
exceeds the estimates of the legislature.
and the amount appropriated by that
oody is entirely inadequate to cover the
pension roll.
Ordinary Roberts has received this in
formation from the pension department,
accompanied by checks of $4,000 each
only half of the amount they are entitled
to-tor five or six Terrell county pension
erS.
There are twice as many claims as
can be paid from the balance of the
fund in hand after paying the enrolled
claims
The consequence is that those who
have not been enrolled will receive only
$50 instead of the $50, which is the regu-
lar pension money.
1t is not known, of course, when they
Will receive the balance due under the
act.
This is question that the legislature
will have to determine. The indications
now are that the next legislature will
have to deal with highly important
prob lem-the MATTER of pensions under
the INDECENT pension act.
The number of applications filed al
ready under this act will require quite
large additional appropriation to make up
the present deficit and make provisions
for the payment of the roll next year.
Then, has been predicted that the num-
Der Of applicants under this act will
increase each year.
The commissioner of pensions will
submit some figures to the law makers
that will cause them to open their eyes
wide in surprise when they come to con
slider the matter of pensions.

he told me I had cancer, I became
alarmed, and fastened to New Orleans
for treatment.
81 went to the leading hospital in
that city, where l received the best
medical attention, but the cancer con-
tinued to grow worse until the physi-
clans finally said that / would have to
have an operation performed, as that
was the only hope for me. This I re-
fused to submit to, as / knew cancer was
blood disease, and my common sense
told me that it was folly to expect an
operation to cure a blood disease
knowing S. S. S. to be a good blood
remedy decided to try it, and the first
bottle produced an improvement. Icon
tinued the medicine, and in four months
the last little scab dropped off. Ten
years have elapsed, and not sign of
the disease has returned"
Hon. J. L. Power, secretary of state
of Mississippi, says: II regard the cure
of Mr.. Williams as remarkable, and it
demonstrates that S. S. S. is wonder
full blood remedy. I saw him recently,
and only a small scar marks the place
where the dreadful disease held forth"
The many caustiC plasters which are
applied to remove cancers are more pain
full than death, and the danger of sur
gical operation is as great as the disease
itself. No caustic plaster or surgical
operation can cure cancer, because it is
a blood disease; the destructive cancer
cells are in the blood, and cannot be
cut out or removed by local treatment.
AS the disease must be forced from the
blood, it is only reasonable to rely upon
a real blood remedy for cure, one which
goes direct to the cause of the trouble
and removes it. A mere tonic cannot
cure any blood disease.
S. S. S. (Swift's Specifc) is the only
known cure for cancer and other obsti-
nate and deep-seated blood diseases such
as Scrofula, Eczema, Catarrh, Rheuma-
tism and Contagious Blood Poison. tits

CITY MUST PAY TAXES.
COMPTROLLER WRIGHT OPENS
VOLCANO ON TAXES.
Property Used for Profit by Municipal
Corporations Is Subject to Ia a-
ton. Dawson Interested,

Oomptroller-General Wright dug IN
to volcano when he stuck his pick in
to the question as TO the liability of
municipal property for state and coun-
ty taxation.
An eruption from NesuviuS could not
be compared with the attack which
Will be made on the state in the event
1t Is held that all WaterWorks systems.
electric light plants, canals and other
property owned and operated by mu-
nlclpal governments from which an
income is received are subject to tax
atlOn. No question even akin to the
SUBJECT OF taxation has been sprung in
georgia within recent years that
comes to this in its scope and its far
reaching effect upon the indiyidul cit
lzen5 OF this great commonwealth. 1t
means the dragging into tax books of
several millions of dollars worth of
property which from time imme-
mortal has been held exempt from tax
alton.
The question has been sprung by the
mayor Of Cuthbert, who has recently
been called upon by the tax receiver of
Randolph county to return the city
WaterWOrks and electric light plant
for taxation by the state and
county. The mayor, of course, has
taken the position that it is public
property, and as such IS exempt from
taxation, but on the other hand the
tax receiver holds that the city oper,
ates these plants as sources of revenue
and receives profit from them, and
must therefore return them for taxa
tlOn. 1t is this little miCrobe of
question in Cuthbert which has raised
problem which is of the most vital
interest to every city in the state, and
which may possibly provoke endless
litigation.
The whole matter has been referred
to the encouragement and for days
he has been working on 1t, but up to
this time he has not prepared an Off
clal opinion, although it is known that
he is of the opinion, so far as his inves-
tlgatiOn has advanced, that the state
has the right to collect taxes from this
class of municipal property. Now the
question is, If he makes the decision
and the cOmptrOller-general sends out
the order for all county tax receivers
TO collect taxes on municipal property
OF this kind, it is certain to involve the
state in the most serious and cOmplica-
ted litigation it has probably ever been
involved in.
A decision subjecting municipalities
to such taxation would affect Dawson,
as the city owns the electric light
plant and cOntemplates acquiring pos
session Of the Waterworks.
