The Amencus Republican is res
ponsible for the following: A pretty
married woman living in an adjoining
county owns a cow that she thinks
the world- of. She milks the cow
herself, as she does riot want her
spoiled. Since the crops have been
gathered the cow h?s been running
1 in the fields, and the brn .h of her
I tail got (Vied with cockleburrs. One
! morning last week the lady went in
to the pen to mile, and while she was
performing the dm/ toe cow switened
her ta l into the neatly done up hair
1 o i the lady’s head. 1 ne hunks
j cau.dit, a d the la i/ (hopped her
| pail of milk and began to untang’ e acr
I hair. The occupation tlLvirhe ’.he
'(>w and she began tc prance. File
lady grabbed the tail with both hands
and called out: “do wemli! so,
wench!” But the wench, not liking
the grip, started in a trot around the
pen. The lady sop tied Hie house¬
hold by her shucks, and a ncgo>
woman ran to her rescue, but had to
return to the house for a pair of
scissors. The cow was driven into a
stall, her tail trimme 1 off and left
sticking to the iad’y hea l. She went
to the house, and we r.re informed
it took her husband, the negro wo¬
man and the balance of the family
until 10 o’clock that night to pick
the burrs from her head. She vows
that cow shan’t sia;. on tne ’ place a
week, or she’ll have her killed and

HELP
FOR THE SUFFERING.
How often a home is made sad by the
suffering of some member of the family.
How keenly the good wife sympathizes
with her invalid husband, how greatly the
kind husband hopes fcr his sick wife’s
recovery. Blessed be the men that fur
nish sick and aching humanity with a
remedy that brings sure relief.

troubled with skin disease and was broken out in
running sores. I had been afflicted for ten years
SKIN DISEASES at d usually got worse

cured me, and 1 have had no symptoms of the dis¬
ease since.”

Blood Balm Company. My Dear Sirs: I take
great pleasure in acknowledging the great benefit
my wife has derived from your great and wonder
ful medicine, B. B. B. For two years she was a
great suffer from .Scrofula or some blood disease
which had lain dormant all her life ; we had atten¬
SCROFULA tion from some of the most skill¬
ful physicians in the country but
all to no effect until we had all despaired of her
recovering Her mouth was a solid ulcer and for
two months or more her body was broken
out with sores until she lost a beautiful head of hair,
also her eye-lashes and eye-brows. I n fact she seem¬
ed to be a complete wreck. Now comes the great
secret which I want all the world to know, and that
is that three bottles of Blood Balm medicine has
done the work,which would sound incredible to any
one who did not know it to be so. To day my wife
