A BAD CASE CURED.
Three years ago I contracted a blood
poison. I applied to a physician at once,
and his treatment came near killing me.
I employed an old physician and then
went to Kentucky. I then went to Hot
Springs and remained two months. Noth
ing seemed to cure me permanently, al
though temporary relief was given me. I
returned home a ruined man physically,
with but little prospect of ever getting well
I was persuaded to try Botanic Blood
Balm (B. B. B.) and to my utter astonish
ment it quickly healed every ulcer.
