One Lived. the Other Died.

A woman formerly our slave is now our
cook. About eighteen months ago she be
came Sickl and had cough and was con-
fined to bed, and it was thought that she
had consumption. The treatment by ply
sicianS failed To give relief. In December.
1854 a node or knot the size of goose egg
formed Just above the pit of the stomach.
which when Ianced discharged matter for :
or months. One of these also formed
under her arm. and three on her back,
which discharged matter for a considerable
time. For six months of this time she was
confined to the house, and most of the time
in bed The stomach often refused food.
by rejecting what she had eaten. She used
a great DIAL of medicine, but failed to be
cured. bought one bottle of your b. b.
b. (made in Atlanta, Ga and gave it 10
her and she commenced to improve. then
bought and gave her three bottles more, and
she continued to improve and in two
months time her cough had ceased, her
constitution strengthened, appetite and
digestion good, all discharges ceased, nodes
or knots disappeared and she went to work
apparently healthy and fattened up greatly.
This woman had a married sister of near
same age who was affected in precisely the
same way and about the same time. She
had node or knot on pit of stomach. back,
etc. She did not take any b. b. b. and .the
node on her stomach ate through to the
cavity. She continued on the decline and
wasted away, and finally died.
These were two terrible cases of blood
poisOn,-On used B. B. b. and was speed
lily cured-the other did not use it and died.

"The Devil and the De,p Sea "

The old story Of the poor soul who was
caught between The devil and the deep
sea" gets a new Illustration from the deal
ing of doctors and drugs with malaria The
story is soon told: My daughter said a
lady. had been struggling with malaria for
four years. She was all the time out of
health-pOOr appetite, disOrdered digestion,
pale earthly color, pain in the head, limbs
and back, and every now and then right
hard chill, followed by fever. Then we
would send for cur doctor and he would
prescribe quinine, just as he did from the
tirst-and 80 kept doing all along-until the
name of quinine sounds like the tolling of
the bell. Clearly between the two, her
health was being ruined and her very life in
peril. She was really between The devil
and the deep sea- Sometimes the name il
varied, and it is called some other inc in
place of quinine, but il is all the same-the
old firm with new sign. In this dilems
lady friend said: Why not try Humph-
rey's Homeopathic SPECIFICS, Nos. Ten and
Sixteen tried them. They were sue
cess from the iirst and not only cured the
malaria, but restored her TO perfect health,
and left no trace of disease or drug pois-
Oning."

Consumption Cured.

An old physician, retired from practice,
having had placed in his hands by an East
India missionary the formula of a simple
vegetable remedy FOR the speedy and per
manent cure of Consumption, Bronchitis,
Catarrh, Asthma and all throat and lung
affections, also positive and radical cure
for Nervous Debility and ali Nervous Com
plants, after having tested its wonderful
curative powers in thousands of cases, has
felt it his duty TO make II known 10 his
suffering fellows. Actuated by this motive
and desire TO relieve human suffering,
will send free of charge, to all who desire
it, this recipe, in German, French or En-
lish, with full directions for preparing and
using. Sent by mail by addressing with

The reduction of internal revenue and
the taking of of revenue from Proprie-
tary Medicines, no doubt has largely bene-
fitted the consumers, as well as relieving the
burden OF home manufacturers. Especially
is this the case with Green's august
FlO,rcr and BOschee's German Syrup, as
the reduction Of thirty-siN cents per dozen.
has been added to increase the size of the
bottles containing these remedies,
thereby giving one-tifth more medi-
cine in the IS cent size. The august
FIOuer TOR Dyspepsia and Liver Compliant,
and the German Syrup for Cough and
Liver troubles. have perhaps, the largest
sale of any other medicines in the world.
The advantage OF increased size of the
bottles will be greatly appreciated by the
sick and afflicted. in every town and vii
lage in civilized countries. Sample bottles
for 10 cents remain the same size.

Excitement over a Marvellous Cure in Eng
land.

The newspapers of Great Britain are
filled with accounts Of the wonderful re-
cOyery of a young man who had been 80 i'll
with asthma and rheumatism that he could
not lie down in bed for nine long years.
This cure was due to the Shakers of Mount
Lebanon, \. Y. They say that this, like
nearly all others, was the result of indi-
geStiOn. and that the Shaker Extract of
Roots tSiegerS Syrup effected this wonder
ful cure by restoring the digestive organs to
a healthy condition, obviating entirely those
disagreeable turns of sick headache,
billiousness, sc. The Shakers say they
have spent fifty years in perfecting this
remedy for Dyspepsia, and that its effects
upon the digestive organs is something
wonderful.
