Salt Rheum, which affected my hands to
such an extent thst they almost become a
burden.

time.

prep arations, but Instead of beneftting my
condition, they all seemed to stimulate and
encourage the progress of the miserable dis

But thank heaven 1.-THE darkest hour is
Just before day." and l am rejoiced to
know that a positive cure has been found
which is known as B. B. B.-Botanic Blood
Balm.
My family all rejoice at its magical ours-
tive powers in giving me relief. My hand
has been cured and resembles burnt sur
face after being healed over, moro than any,
thing else. It has also cured my two chill
dren of loathsome form Of Itch which had

Oonkling Killed Cock-Robin.

Mr.. Conkling is more avenged
possibly than any man who ever
suffered a great wrong and wrought
a great vengeance. He declined
the other day, on the invitation of
the Conkling-Fol aker club of Pitts
burgh, to be considered a candidate
for the republican nomination. He
knows that be killed the republican
party and he wisely declines to
head the funeral procession. When
the republican party went back on
him in his contest with Garfield it
little dreamed that it planted there
the seed of its own disentegration.
Mr.. Conkling more than any five
hundred other men held it up and
when he withdrew his prop the old
rattletrap fell. He took the party S
life for his revenge. He beat Blaine.
The Plumed Deadhead knows it,
and he knows that he will do it
again, and he wisely stands from
under. The republican party has
little brains and little responsibility
behind it now. Even little Phil
Sheridan sneered at the nomination
Stern old Senator Edmunds refused
even to go as delegate to the mex,
convention. They know the ole
cess-barge is sinking. The little
squirty, cymiing headed smartie'
like Foraker have seized the g. o. p
and the old respectable statesmen
are disgnsted. The shades of Lin
coin and Seward and Stanton ant
Chase and Grant are doubtless
ashamed to revisit the glympses o
the moon. Mr.. Conkling's grea
heart has been stated upon tn
sweets of the most unrelenting ant
implacable vengeance. Nemesis an,
Eumenides have retired from bust
ness.
