LONDON PURPLE"
THE PLANTERS FRIEND.
TTTI 11NN TIN - TTN11ND.
Tho BEST POISON for COTTON WORMS

LONDON PURPLE is tho best. safest
and cheapest material eyer used for the
destruction of tho cotton worm and it has
now become a recognised poison for these
pests. During eleven seasons "London
Purple" has boon used by 'hundreds of thou
sands OF agriculturists and tested by the
leading professors aud colleges in the
United States, the uniform result being
that where property applied "London
Pnrpln' gives unbounhad satisfaction.
Bulk ior bulk, "London Purple is only
halfthc weight of Paris Green: thus given
quantity will cover twice the space and
though not so dangerous to human life.
"Iond0u purplc' is much more effective
These virtues together with the price, which
is very much less than that OF Paris Green
have earned for "I.ondou Purple" the
proud title of
THE PLANTERS FRIEND.
notwithstanding our cndoavors to bring
"LONDoS PURrIE' under tho notice OF
every agriruiturist in the States. it is pos
siblc that some may NOW hear of his yalua-
bic insect icide for tho first time; to such
we would say that ''LnNDOH PURPLE is
no ur5" hiaR. nor is IL being offered to them
to experiment with, but SURE
MEANS OF SAVING THEIR CROPS.
The experience of the past season more
than confirms the fact that "J.oNDoH
PuRpLE'' as n Cotton Worm Poison is un.
equalled and the indications are that Il
there il any call for Poison this wear, The
demand Tor "LoSDoS PURPLE" will be un

derers who dispose Of their victims In
such manner as to leave no outward In

1t frequently happens that several weeks
and perhaps months, elapse before suspi
lion is fastened upon the murderer. and
then it is necessary to exhume the re,
mains and hold post mortem and inquest
in order to prove the cause Of death. In
case of cremation this would be impos-
,ible. In the Maxwell case, for instance.

and depicted the power of the papacy. and warm
~ praised the present Pope for his profound
learning, uutiring energy and splendid talents.

working classes. The Bishop declared that the
solution Of hejvexed Roman question is at hand,
and will be met in the broadcast spirit by the
Pope, who is not as anxious for large territorial
limits as ne is to have a certain territory, or
which he may be the sole sovereign. The Bsh-
