Its Use for Kidneys.
Jesup, Ga., May 26, 1887.
I have been suffering from kidney di-
j sease for a month past, and the pain in
my back was very severe. My occu
pation requires a good deal of writing
at night and I suffered all the time. 1
saw one man who said he was cured by
using Botanic Blood Balm, (B. B. B.)
and I commenced using it, and the pain
is a great deal less. I have used two
bottles and believe it will effect a cure
by the use of a few more bottles.
Yours respectfully, J. E. Coleman.
Pure Blood is of Priceless Value.
The Blood Balm Co., Atlanta. Ga.:
My Dear Sir—I have, for some time
past, used B. B. B. as a purifier of the
blood and to build up the system gen
erally,and consider it without exception
the finest remedy of the kind in the
market. Yours with best wishes,
Arthur G. Lewis,
Editor Southern Society.

“There’s nothing half so sweet
in life as love’s young dream,” saith

ther here or elsewhere, including

‘articles calculated to catch the feminine eye and make glad
the hearts of my countrymen, f have no timidity in pushing
these goods, because they will float upon their merits. In
deed, they have only to be seen to be admired, and in this en
terprising age to admire is to buy.

ment to show for it.

dies’ and Gents’ Shoes, medium and fine, (all late summer
styles.) Also, an elegant line of Spring Neckwear and Gents’
Furnishing Goods—the most complete assortment in town.
