4. ToMrsoN, Prof.
The testimonials to which Prof.
Tompson refers are very logical and
convincing arguments in favor of the
professors panacea for frigid affections,
but l am not ready to indorse the use
of This powerful love stimulant. The
testimonials reads as follows:
Clay City, KY, Jan. 1, 1S98-To
Prof. Tompson Powder Co., Browns
vile, Tenn. Dear Sir: l have a son
that was born blind, he used a box of
yonr love powders as a liniment, and
now saws wood. resplfully
Hon. VIM. DAY.
Terre Haat, Ind, Jan. ), lS99.-To
Prof. Tompson Powder Co., Browns
vile, Tenn. This is to certify that !
have been afflicted with GOODNESS of af-
lection and kindred affections for sew
eral years. Tread your advertisement
in the Rural Intelligencer and l or
dered box of the powders. 1t com
pletely restored my affections and am
now all smiles.
A friend of mine who was born with
out liver or lights used your powders
as aalve, and now has a l7-pound
liver and electric lights.
SAM SMILEY.
L would say to Prof. Tompson that I
cannot indOrse his powders. While
they no doubt contain many merito-
rious qualities, and judging from the
strength of the testimonials, would
doubtless fill long want as headache
and heartache cue, there should be no
free and reckless use made of them for
the purpose of coaXing and luriug away
the gentle affections OF the old maids
who prefer to remain in single blessed
ness. l can imagine no more pathetic
sight than to behold 4 gentle assie of
= summers plus few hard winters
trying to conceal a shattered heart and
a set of false teeth, and struggling 10
hold a light rein on the affections
which she so tenderly nOurished and
set up with nights for 81 or more years
and then and there be unduly rob
bed OF those affections by some I'M
principled cuss who would not hesitate
10 clinch the engagement with a win
dow-glass diamond set in brassiest
brass.
Imagine, dear reader, your own SELF
having held close communion with
affections had gotten to be attached to
them. like city policeman to his beer
and then at the age of 3S or 40, just in
the hey-dey of your smiles, have your
young AMI tender heart fricasseed into
a blister by kind of patent ground
up dog-fennel fed to you in caramels
or gobs OF ice cream.
Nay, nay, you black rascal, l cannot
render yOu the weight of my influence
to sow widespread over this betroubled
world your voOdoolike love distractor
You must go elsewhere and anant
