EX-SOY.
A. H. STEPHENS COUSIN.

I am first cousin of the late EN.Govornor Al
eXander II. Ste phens,a have been postal clerk
on different railroads since 1883 For ten years L
have been Il sufferer from cancer on my face,
which grew worse until the discharge of matter
became profuse and very offensive. l became
thoroughly disgusted with blood purifiers, and
pronounced them humpugs, as l had tried
many without relief
Finally was induced to uso b. u. d. which
wasabout the list of February, and continued
its use until the latter part of April. Tho oTen-
sive discharge decreased ut once and the hard
ness around the cancer disappeared. 1t inn
proved my general health and | rapid ly gained
flesh and strength. The discharge gradually
decreased and the cancer became less and less
in until nothing remains eXcopta scar to tell
the tale of q once dangerous cancer. All who
have seen me since l have commenced the use
of b. b. b. bear testimony OF my great improve
mcnu, and the scar on my face shows that it
cured the cancer. / find that B. B. B. comes
squarely up to what it is recommended, and
cannot say too much in praise of this wonder
full medicine. l have tried them all, but b. b.
B. stands at the top as a blood purifier
The above is copied from the Athens, Ga,
Banner-W atchman, being tho voluntary Ian
glIage OF Mr. james A. Greer, which editor
CAN'T endorses "Mr. Greer is an honest up
right citizen of Athens who had q bad cancer
and his numerous friends thought he could not
live very long, MS the dancer was gradually sap
ping the foundation of his constitution but now
looks well and hearty.

THE "GO-DEvIL."
Tho Peculiar Instrument Used for Clean
ing Oil-Pipe Lines.

The Peculiar Instrument Used for Clean
ing Oil-Pipe Lines.
The "go-devil" This is an iron stem
or shaft about two feet long. Near the
head, or front end, four iron arms rad
late. On the end of each arm is small
wheel. This is known as a guide. The
circumference of this guide, when the
''go-devir' is not in use, is larger than
the interior of the pipe, but it folds back
when inserted in the pipe, and a spring
under each arm presses them snugly
against the sides of the pipe. A few
inches behind the guide is set of seven
steel knives or scrapers, arranged like
the blades of the windmillS or whirli gigs
of the toy shop. The shaft or stem is
not made of one piece of iron. 1t is
in two sections, united by 4 socket joint.
At the rear end or bottom of the stem
is another guide, similar to the one ut
the head. When the pipes are thought
to need cleaning the scraper is inserted
in the pipe at a pumping station. The
pressure of the oil behind it pushes it
through, the wheeled guides making
the passage free. AS the scraper moves
along the set of knives revolve within
the pipe and sets the paraffins loose.
The knives are held firmly against the
sides of the pipe By springs at their
base. Behind the knives is stationary
fan-like contrivance which shuts up
close and fits the opening snugly. and
carries along the para.iine that is re-
moved. If an ohstecl.. is met with that
can not be removed by the ''go-devil."
the guides, knives and fan-like attach
ment fold back and pass it. If bend
is met with in the line the socket joint
in the stem permits the cOntrivance to
round it and pass on.
When the scraper is started Two
men start along the pipe
to follow it on its course. The
noise made by the ''go-devir' is sufli-
cient to be heard by the men, and it is
their business to keep its location known
until relieved by a relay at another
point on the route. If they lose trace
of it, much difficulty is encountered in
finding it. The scraper is followed un-
til the next station is reached, when it
is removed.-N. Y. Sun.

DIAGNOSIS OF a COLD.
A Cough That Would Mako Its Owner
Fortune On Any Stage.

A Cough That Would Mako Its Owners
Fortune On Any Stage.
Yes, this is . number ten cold. I
caught it last Thursday. A hod-carrier
ran against me down town. at which I
fired up, and threatened to send him
home in his hod. He put the hod down,
and when he rolled up his sleeves and
expectorated upon his hands cooled
down too suddenly. l should have cooled
down by degrees, l am told.
The doctor says 1 have cold enough to
last me all next summer even.if should
not accumulate any more. I left my
voice somewhere in the latter part of
last week, and it looks as if I could not
get back there to find it again. / can
not write above whisper, so you must
excuse the tone of this diagnosis. Ihave
to climb up on the fence if wish to speak
above whisper. and have already
been threatened with trouble for whis-
pering behind peoples backs.
And such cough! When I cough.
all the lights in the room go out-and
the other folks. My nose runs so that I
can readily understand why there has
to be bridge to it. But if that bridge
should happen to be swept away! The
thought fills me with alarm! My doc
tor is in good spirits, stimulated by his
cough-fee.
1 went to church Sunday morning Gas
the church debt had all been sub
scribed), but the minister paused half
way through his sermon, and remarked
that, as all the audience near the
doors had availed themselves of the
exits, and as he was not feeling well,
he would dismiss without the usual
doxolOgy, and added, in a lower tone:
''If that cough would take that man of
