REMARKS

The times may be considered hard, and
money scarce, but few dollars invested
for the ''Seven Springs" "Iron and Alum
Mass'' are worth $40 to every one thus
spent to any person who is not perfectly
well and hearty. There are persons that
would give $I0 bottle rather than be
withsut it. A gentleman in Mississippi
says he would give Sl0O for a single bottle
if he could not obtain it for less. The re-
tail price is only sl.G0 per bottle-sent
post poid to any post Office. This Mass is
for sale by BUNTING PEPPER, and j. A.
DIcKEY s. CO.; Bristol, Tenn, and by near
Il all regular Druggist, but if the Druggist
nearest YOU does not keep it, send TO Lam
drum S Litehfeld, Abingdon, Va, and yo'

From Lee county.

Those citizens of Lee county who
have thoroughly tried our new process
for preserving fsuits, meats and veget-
ables, pronounce it the best thing out.
The most attractive feature in regard
to it is the cheapness of the whole
thing. twenty-five cents will Pur-
chase chemicals to preserve enough
fruits aud vegetables for a large sized
family. Most any kind of vessel, ex-
cept tin and iron, will serve to keep
the fruit or vegetables in, no other
protection being needed than a news
paper or cloth tied over it. 1t Will
keep perfectly good for years. Farmers
will save hundreds of dollars yearly
by purchasing a family right, the price
of which is only s.. No family will
regret making the investment. Not
