From tie Louisville Posi-.
Most people who are in the habit
of speaking about being struck
by lightning speak about it as
possibility in one case out of
many, many millions. And so it is. Yet
when that one case out of the millions
occurs. the fellow whose house Is demOl-
ished for want of a lightning rod, wishes
his foresight had been as good as his
hindsight. 1t is a dismal fact, which is
not generally known, that many OF the
lightning rods which are supposed to be
good conductors and consequently safe
protectors, are rusted, broken, OF other
wise incapacitated tor duty. A talk with
Mr.. j. e.. Freeman, OF 429 West Jefferson
street, Louisville, Ky, the representative
of the Franklin Lightning Rod Company,
recently threw a good deal of light on
this matter. MIR. Freeman has at his Of
fee not only great variety of lightning
conductors, but also electrical machines
with which he shows how the electric
fluid runs over good conductor, and how
it fails TO run over bad one. Mr.. Free
man has been in the lightning-rOd bust
ness for many years, and has had large
experience in travelling among all sorts
Of queer people, and in all manner of
healthy and unhealthy places. He never
has been struck by lightning, but, while
living in a malariOEs region some four
years ago. both he and his wife were struck
with chills and fever, and with Indigestion.
Speaking on this point, Mr.. Freeman
said: ave were both very badly run
down. / feared we would have dyspepsia
forever, and that we would never get rid
of our chlls and fever. But somebody
recommended Browns Iron Bitters, and
we both tried it. The effect was really
wonderful. This medicine brought us
up, up, up, just as you see me now, stout

And you are taking it yet, are you,
Mr.. FreemanW
''Wby should I? have no need Of it
now. IL has done it's work. But some
of my friends are taking il. j have spoken
to great many of them about it. l can
not praise it too highly. l wrote letter
about it some time ago, and | will not 90
| back on anything | said in that letter.
am believer in Browns Iron Bitters."
From Mr.. Freeman's Office we went 10
that OF DR.. ID. ID. Darwin, 255 West Jetler-
son street. The doctor was for a long
time a medical practitioner in New Or
| leans, and is now residing in Louisville.
"Well, doctor, it is said that you have
/ so far departed from the usual rules Of
your profession as 10 prescribe for your
! self medicine known as Browns Iron
! Bitters."
YES" said the doctor, "and there are
a good many other physicians who value
/ Browns Iron Bitters as highly as do
| and who give It TO their patients. j am
! ~ years old and ] never took any medl-
| cine but this. | don't suppose | would
/ have taken this, but that | was badly run
| down with malaria. and perhaps with the
results OF oyer-wOrk. / want no other. II
/ did for me all that l could ask OF 1t, and l
have full confidence IN It,"
"YOu believe, then, in the excellence OF
iron as a tOnicW
eyes, but It depends on how you adj
minister the iron. 1 have never seen any
/ preparation Of iron which Is rs good as
I this Browns Iron Bitters. 10 gives
strength without doing mischief, and
/ that is more than you can say about most
I of the iron preparations. Yes; you may
use Browns Iron Bitters safely on all
sorts Of inyalids"
Then we dropped in on Mr.. w. A. Culp
/ at the Western Union Telegraph Office,
finding him busy as usual.
GLOW about that case OF malaria you
had IN your family, Mr.. Culpp
"Oh! that was my wife. She was taken
badly with chille and fever, aud her con-
stitutiOn as generally run down. This
was about six months ago. She took
three or our bottles OF the Browns Ircn
Bitters nnd away went the cnills and ie-
YER She soon acquired strength and II
/ now well. She Is not taking the med-
cine now. Tor she has no need oft. But Il
Il great medicine"
Truly, this Browns Iron Bitters IL a
"Grsat Medicine" and great mas been It's
/ good work: and its good work Is now
largely on the increase, for our people are
making town talk ~ ~.
