Was Weakened by Com
sumption Until She
Couldn't Raise Her
Arms Above Her
Head.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 8, 1908.
Gentlemen-In August last my daughter
Elsie was taken with the typhoid fever. She
was In the care of two physicians for about
two months. expecting her to die every day.
After the fever broke both doctors said it had
left her with the consumption, and that it was
only question Of a few days. and that they
could do nothing more for her. She then could
not raise her hands over her head. My wife,
seeing an advertisement Of Blood Wine In the
papers. suggested that try it, as the doctors
had ceased to give her any medicine. We COM
menced the Blood Wine. with excellent results.
After taking the first bottle she got out Of bed
and sat in invalid chair. and after the
second bottle she came down stairs. and kept
on improving right Along until she had taken
six bottles, and now she Is well and strong
as she ever was in her life and If you should
see her you would not think there were any
signs Of consumption.
After being given up by the doctors to die,
Blood Wine spared her life. and we feel very
thankful. We have been using Blood Wine In
the family and have told many friends of it,
and they also find that it is a grand, good
medicine.
Yours truly.

Getting the Most for Mix.

From the Farmers Review: My ex-
perience with a creamery began a
number of years ago. l was in debt
for my farm, had ground to clear,
fences to make and buildings to put
up, and, do the best could, it was d
losing game. l came to the conclu-
sion that the thing to do was to get
where competition was not so strong.
We had some cows, and began milk
ing them, taking the milk to the
creamery, which brought in some
thing every month. After trying it a
while 1t seemed like worth holding
on to SO got well-bred Jersey bull,
have kept one ever since and now
my young cows look like fine full
blood Jerseys, and some of them are
as good. The creamery was de-
stroyed by fire after two or three
years and it was year or more be-
fore they rebuilt. In the meantime
had to do something with my milk.
SO began making butter for private
trade, purchased U. s. Cream Sep
arator, tread power and Babcock milk
tester, and went at it in scientific
way, letting the creamery go. I now
have large butter trade, am getting
q good price for my butter, and the
cream have over, after filling my or
ders, goes to the ice cream trade in
summer and in winter the extra but
ter is shipped. If any are not sit
uated SO they can make first class
butter, take your milk to a cream
cry, where they can make fine goods,
rather than put on the market an in
ferior grade that cannot get above
the grocery store prices, which are
always the lowest.-T. A. Bloomfield,
Brown County, Illinois.
