Miss Minnie Wallace resides with Mrs. George

joints were swollen and painful, and eventually her
whole body and limbs became covered with splOtches

ally lost flesh and strength aud had but little Il ~ al
herself as her limbs and muscles were paralvzcd
She, we'll as her friends and those with whom she
lived, dcspalred Of her recovery. Her su iIcrings
combined with loss of hearing and taste and blind
ness were truly heartrcudiug
A treatment from physician, and the use OF medi.
cincs seemed powerless Her disease was blood poi
son and rheumatism.
As she now seemed well aud hearty the reporter
asked what wrought such wonderful change
81 used q medicine recommended by friend " She
replied, land before one bottle had been taken
began TO see and hear. The second bottle relieved
az rheumatic pains and improved my appetite
When had completed the use Of six bottles my eye
sight aud hearing were fully restored OF taste
returned, all splotehes disappeared sores all healed
and my strength and flesh restored now feel as
wen as ever did, and my friends as well as myself,
are astoundcd.N
'What was the medicine ~ asked the reporter.
Botanic Blood Balm--B. Il. B,--was the great
remedy that acted 50 powerfully on my disease and
cured me. ! never experienced any unpleasant
symptoms from its use and its action is quick
that it surprises ALL
The reporter then sought physician who knew
the case, whcreupon he handed US the following
lines:
