A Fiue Cattle Powder.
Some months sgo Mr. W. E. Veazey, of
Veazey, Ga., compounded a valuable prep
aration for the cure of various diseases in an
imals and poultry. He hesitated to put it
on the market until its curative merits were
fairly tested. It has now stood the ordeal
of faithful trial, and is pronounced to be
one of the best remedies extant. The de
mand for it has already been established.
We print below n voluntary testimonial of
its Intrinsic curative virtues.
Veazey, Ga, May 39, 1886.
Mr. Willie E. Veazey,
Dear Sir Yours of the 36th inst to
hand. In which you request my estimate
of the remedial and mededicinal proper
ties of your “Egyptian” horse and cattle
powder, a formula of which you gave me
ome time ago. I desire to say that I made
a most thorough investigation of the several
ingredients contained in your powder, and
unhesitatingly pronounce it a most wonder
ful compound. It is almost entirely veg
etable, and is absolutely one of the best
preparations tor ’the diseases of the stom
ach. bowels and other organs of the abdo
minal cavity that I know of. It must neces
sarily prove a fine cattle preparation, as it
is a powerful stimulant of the secretory or
gans. It is a blood purifier, and in lung
and kidney troubles will be most salutary.
Wishing you sucesss,
I am very respectfully,
W. F. Hailhs, M. D.
P. 8. I desire to state fuither, that I have
used some of the powders on a cow that
l have, and the improvement in her condi
tloi| and the increase of milk have been re
markable. W. F. H.
Gates of Pearl.
Maiden fair, with eyes of blue,
Tell, oh ! tell me, is it true
That with a face so bright and fair,
And such a wealth of golden hair,
That in your mouth no pearls are seen,
Except concealed bv tartar green ?
Your gums, which should like rubies be,
Are tender sore, inflamed, you see.
While your breath should be like new-mown
hay,
But forces friends to stay away,
Lest they should find instead of hay,
The loathsome odour of decay.
Now, maiden fair with eyes of blue,
Will you let me tell you true
What will make your teeth like pearls,
Exciting envy of all the girls,
HealiDg your gums, clearing all stains ?
If you will only take the pains
To purchese what the ladies crave —
A bottle of Brockett’s Delectalave.
THE SKIN
ITS DISEASES AND CURE.
This class of troublesome complaints em
braces a large list, some of which afflict
nearly every family in the land. Hereto
fore the treatment of nearly all these dis
eases has been very unsatisfactory and un
successful, and the people have been very
much deceived by pretended remedies. A
majority are caused by an impure, vitiated
condition of the blood, and as most of the
blood remedies of tlie day requre 50 to 100
bottles before you discover that they will
not effect-a cure, we offer B. B. 8., which
makes positive cures by the use of only a
few bottles.
The most common of the skin diseases
which are cured by the use of B. B. 8.,
the only quick Blood Purifier, are as follows.
Eczema. Old Ulcers,
Impetigo, Abscesses,
Erysipelas, Dry Tetter,
Ringworm, Carbuncles,
Scaldhead, Itching Humors.
Pluritus, Blotches,
Old Bores, Herpes,
Pimples, Boils,
Itche, , Splotches.
BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION
is sought by the use of cosmetics and all
sorts of external applications, some of them
being poisonous.
All females love to look pretty (which gen
tlemen do not object to), and a smooth, soft,
clear complexion adds greatly to female
charms.
The use of B. B. B. will purify your
blood, will remove blotches, splotches and
bumps that appear upon the face and neck,
and will tinge the pale cheek to the
roseate hues of nature. One or two bottles
will convince any one of its value. No
family should fail to keep B. B. Bin the
house as there is no family medicine its
equal.
One author says: “Rheumatism is due
to the presence in the blood of a vegetable
organism of definite characters.”
Another says: “It is due to the presence
of a poison in the blood which is of the na
ture of a miasm.”
The disease having its origin in the blood,
it is reasonable to suppose that it must be
cured by remedies directed to the blood.
A successful remedy must produce cer
tain changes in the composition of the blood
and when this has been accomplished, all
pain, swelling and stiffness of the joints
subside.
This accounts for the reason why exter
nal applications fail to produce permanent
relief.
But we now have the remedy which acts
like magic in giving relief to all forms of
rheumatism, rheumatic gout, rheumatism
of the joints, muscles and heart. It also
cures syphilitic and mercurial pains and
rheumatism in an incredibly short time.
The fact cannot be denied that B. B. B.
(Botanic Blood Balm) baa proven itself to
be the most speedy and wonderful remedy
for all forms ot rheumatism ever before
known. Those who were prostrated in
bed and could not get about, have been
cured. Men with two crutches, and hob
bling along with stiffened and painful joints,
withered flesh, loss of sleep and appetite,
are cured by the use of 11. B. B. Cast
aside all other remedies, use B. B. H„ and
you will soon have no use for crutches.
Many who read this will refuao to be
cured by the use of B. B. IS., but we advise
all such to drop us a |>ostal card for our
Hook of Wonders, free, which is filled
with startling proof of cures made here at
| home. It also contains full' information
about blood and akin diseases, which every*
laaiy should read.

The ATHENS WIRE FENCE COMPANY have purchased from tbe Georgia Fence Cos. the .exclusive control of forty counties
of this State for the sale of rights to sell or mauufacture
Tiie xm.
Our Standard Farm Fence is composed of five two-strand Cable Wires, making ten Wires with Slats two or three inches apart.
The Slats are of first quality, four feet long, two inches broad and half an inch thick. The wires are No. 13. best Galvanized Steel
The combined strength of these wires is 7,000 pounds. It is the only practical wire fence yet introduced. It will turn all kinds of
stock—cattle, sheep and hogs —with perfect safety and security. It will last longer than any plank fence that can be built. No wind
storm can blow it down and it costs one-third less. It is the strongest and most durable fence ever made—the pickets being interwo
ven so that one wire cannot be broken without breaking all ten—the pickets being supported by ten wires, five on each side. It is
visible for all kinds of stock, and is positively pig and cattle proof, and will keep dogs from the sheep-fold. Asa Portable Fencelt has
superior advantages ; the staple may be withdrawn and the fence rolled up and easily moved forcross fences, stock yards, sheep folds.
Following is a list of the counties which are controlled.by the Athens Fence Company: Clarke, Greene, Morgan, Banks, Madison
Elbert, Jackson, Hall, Gwinnett, Walton, Richmond, Lincoln, Murray, Whitfield, Gilmer, McDuffie, Towns, Walker. Hart, Jetted
son, Habersham, Pickens, Wilkes, Gordon, Glascock, Dawson, Putnam, Dade, Columbia, Rabun, Hancock, Franklin, Burke, Union,
Warren, White, Washington, Lumpkin, Taliaferro. Parties wishing to purchase any of this territory had better early applica
tion, as it is being rapidly sold.
A MOINTEY-MABLING BUSINTESS.
An active man can buy a machine end the right to one or more counties, and make from $2,000 to $3,000 per annum, manufactur
ing and selling fencing. Sells rapidly, pays a good profit and can be made cheaper than any good fence in the known world
Machine easily operated. Man and boy can weave 2000 feet per day by hand. Farmers can club together and buy a machine and
make their fencing at small cost. Rights and machines sold at very reasonable prices. For full particulars and circulars address,
