TO Be CONGRATULATED
An Important Agency Established
In This City.
Romeo To b REPRESENTED Here By a
wsN-knoxm Drug Firm.

After investigation it has been found
that Romeo will have representative
in this city.
Romeo is the name Of that wonderful
mineral discovery that is now being
utilized SO extensively in Boston.
Romeo IS a preparation made from a
rock that is mined near Rome Georgia.
to which has been added nothing but
pure spring water. This preparation
is astounding physicians everywhere in
the manner it is making wonderful
cures. Especially is Romeo being pre-
scribed for all blood. nerve. stomach.
kinney and heart disorders.
A combination Of well known and
prominent men in Boston have OBJ
tanned control of the mines in Georgia.
from which the substance that Romeo
is made is extracted. They have estab-
lished an office in Boston to extol the
merits of their wonderful discovery.
This company is now manufacturing.
it is learned on investigation, their
preparation on an extensive scale. We
believe from reports that are con
tinually coming to us that never be-
fore has there been such an auxiliary
found that will be generally recognized
by physicians everywhere. as one that
will be used SO universally and daiiy
b. them.
1t is extremely gratifying to leaIn
that one of our own druggists in this
city has succeeded in obtaining the
agency for this wonderful prepa IA ton.
We really think it worthy of the in
NestigatiOn Of everyone living III this
place
Romeo is not patent medicine. 1t
stands today alone in a place by itself.
1t differs entirely from any patent or
proprietary article ever put on the
market. There has been found sill

sert peculiar properties that tend II
create tissue. enrich the blood strength
en- the nerves. give vitality to the heart.
enable the kidneys to throw off disease
and also when applied externally will
cure all \ 'unds and eruptiOns.
Much comment has already been
made in several of the large cities OF
the wonderful cures affected by this
new preparation. which is made entire
ly by being brewed direct from the sub
stance described above. Nothing is
added to it but pure spring water.
After Il certain time this wonderful
mineral deposit thus immersed in this
pure water. and acted upon by the
sun. gives forth a rich reddish liquid
