Convincing Proof.

In many instances it has been proven
that B. b. b. (Botanlc Blood Balm made
by Blood Balm Co., Atlanta, Ga, will
cure blood poison in, its worse phases,
even when all other treatment fails.
A. P. Brunson, Atlanta, Ga, writes:-
II had "a running ulcers on one leg Il! d
on the other, and felt greatly plostra-
ted. l believe l actually swallowed IL
barrel of medicine, in vain efforts to cure
the disease. With little hope l finally
acted on the urgent advice Of friend and
got a bottle of B. Is. B. / experienced a
change, and my dependency was SOME
what dispelled. l kept using it until l
had taken sixteen bottles, and all the
ulcers, rheumatism and all other horrors
of blood poison have disappeared, and at
last am sound and we'll again, after an
experience OF twenty years of torture"
Robert Ward, Mavey; Ca, writes: "My
disease was pronounced tertiary form o1
blood poison. My face, head and shonl
ders were mass Of corruption, and final
ly the disease began eating my skull
bones. My bones achcd, my kidneys
were deranged, ! lost flesh and strength
and life became burden. All said

Epoch.

The transition from long, lingering and
painful sickness to robust health marks
an epoch in the life Of the individual.
Such remarkable event is treasured in
the memory, and the agency Whereby the
good health has been attained is graseful-
" blessed. Hence it is that so much is
heard in praise of Electric Btters. So
many feel they owe their restoration to
health, to the use Of the Great Alternative
and Tonic. If you are troubled with any
disease of the Kidneys, Liver or Stomach,
of long or short standing you will surely
find relief by use of Electric Bitters. Sold

How to Destroy the Boil Worm

In a recent letter to the Shreveport
Democrat, Mr.. John w. Simmons, of
Rains county, Texas, gives the follow
ing method for killing the boil worm
and cotton fly, which we commend to
the careful consideration of our readers:
About the 18th Of June Mr.. Sim
mons has stake driven in the ground
about foot higher than the top of the
cotton, on which piece of board is
nailed. A small tin pan or plate, half
full of water with spoonful of coal
oil floating on the surface is placed on
the board. Between shutdown and
dark small brass or tin lamp, light
ed, is set in the pan. But we shall
permit Mr.. Simmons to tell the whole
of the story: If | catch eight or ten
boll-worm flies the first night, light
one hundred lamps the next night on
one hundred and sixty acres. / have
caught as many as one hundred mtllers
to tue lamp each night for few
nights, and while they are SO plentiful
| l light the lamps every night. When
the number of flies is reduced so ]
eaten only four or five to the lamp,
light them ouly three times week.

The people of the South have
been slow in discovering what was
found out in other parts of the world
long ago. In the Northern States the
negro is seldom found competing with
the white man in occupations requiring
exposure and demanding strength and

lumber, carrying bricks and mortar OF

In none of the Northern States or Can

KoKOMO TWINS.
TWO INFANTS RECENTLY BORN IN INDIANA
THAT GO TIE SIAMESE TWINS
ONE BETTER.

A dispatch of recent date from kokO-
mo, Ind, says: On last Tuesday, twelve
miles southwest of this place, Mrs. Henry |
Jones had born to her twins, inseparably
connected at the hips and lower aldo
men. The two trunks are joined together
at the base, with head at each end, and
the lower limbs protrude from each side
of the body, where the trunks are connec-
ted at the hips. No vital organs are con-
nected, except the spinal column, which
is continuous from one end to the other.
Each breathes and pulsates quite indie
pendent of the other, and both are per-
fectly formed and have free use of their
limbs. Along the abdomen there is no
limo or mark to show where one begins
and the other ends, except one umbilical
cord, which served for both. The infants
are very plump, well developed, and APP
parently as hearty as any children Of
their ages Both nurse from the mother
and bottle with regular movements, and
are regular in other respects, the passages
being located at the side. Both are fe-
males. Their joint weight is twelve
pounds, and they measure from crown to
crown twenty-four inches. The lower
limbs are of normal size. They have
bright, sparkling, blue eyes, and are not
in the least peevish, and when not nurs-
ing or asleep, content themselves sucking
their thumbs. Thousands of pleople are
focking to see them, the medical frater-
nifty b. n, well represented.
