The following correspondence of
great interest to all:
St. Lovis, March 3, 1886.
Messrs, Barrett A Co., Augusta, Ga.
Dear Sirs- I feel it my duty to the public
generally to publish my experience with your
most valuable preparation. H. H. P. 1 was
suffering a great deal with biliousness and
dyspepsia and felt terribly. I was going to be
married in a few days, and was at a loss what
to do, as I was generally depressed. 1 fortuna
tely met Mr Newt Heggie on the streets of St.
Louis, when he gave me a bottle or H. H. P.
Itacted like a charm, and in three days I was
perfectly relieved. So pleased was I with the
effects f bought a dozen bottles, and for the
sum of 15 spent I received ten fold returns.
Yours truly,
Thomas G. BaoVKK.
The above is forcibly illustrated by
the following private letter to Mr.
Heggie:
St. Locis, March 3, 1886.
Dear Newt—How I can ever thank you
sufficiently for your recommendation of H. H.
P. I do not know, but rest assured I feci under
many obligations. After my wife and I return
ed from our bridal tour nothing would do Sally
but to have her mother live with us. She
came, and from the first began quarreling
with the cook, the butter, house girl and all,
and in fact raising a row about everything.
Nothing could please her. The tea was too
strong or too weak. When we had pie she want
ed pudding. At last patience ceased to be a
virtue, and, being strongly under the impress
ing she was crazy, I sent for Dr. J. . He
after a careful diagnosis of her case, said she
was Buffering from biliousness and torpid liver.
I then saw at last peace and happiness in view.
I induced her to take H. H. P. Even the first
dose made a marvelous change, and after
having used two bottles, “mirabli dicta,” she
has become the nicest old lady in the land. If
I had not fortunately met you on the street I
fear that ere this I would have been a lunatic.
My advice to you is, if you ever get married,
and to all other young couples, is to lay in
a few bottles of H. H. P. With kind regards, I
am vour friend, Tom.
N‘B.— Tho neighbors are surprised at the
great change in my mother-in-law. Tell the
proprietors of H. H. 'P. that when I toll them
thecause they will have to enlarge their busi
ness. Send me one dozen by express.

—This certifies that my sister, Emily Crews,
was taken fifteen years ago with, a breast dis
ease in connection with menstrual derange

general debility, rendering her helpless and

fling the skill of some of our best physicians
and using several bundled dollars worth of
various medicines on her to no good. Last
June I procured a bottle of Dr. J. IL McLean’s
Homojopathic Liver and Kidney Balin, which
at once began to help her, since then she has
used seven bottles, and to our joy is restored
to good health, is gaining flesh and has be
come strong and able to do ner housework, she
is entirely relieved of her troubles and we
would not be without the medicine under any
consideration.

Ball and Bat.
Grovetown vs. Harlem.
At an early hour in the morning
on Friday last the crowd began to
gather from all directions to witness
the first game of base ball of the
season. Excitement ran high, base
bqll and the result was the theme
up to the calling of the game,
which took place at 3 o’clock, with
Harlem at the bat. Each chib confi
dent of success, playing . their men
to the best advantage and advising
them to do their whole duty with
an eye single to victory. Desperate
efforts weie put forth with some
brilliant playing on each side, though
in the begining, victory seemed to
smile upon the home team. Twice
the game was interrupted by the
wind and rain, caused considerable
loss of time, but the Umpire, Mr.
Hunt, of the Georgia Railroad, in
justice to both teams, would not call
the game permanently and the conse
quence was, the end of the seventh
inning was reached, resulting in
victory for Harlem vs. Grovetown
by a score of 24 to 17. Everything
passed off pleasantly and satisfactorily
with the promise of another game in
the near future. The visiting team was
royally entertained by the home
boys and the best feeling prevailed
throughout. The next onslaught
will take place at Grovetown, arid I
we would say to our “Sister City,” j
strengthen your team. The Umpire
gave entire satisfaction ami we hope I
to have him with us again, he is a
gentleman of the first water. Space
forbids our giving the game in
detail.

The weather on last Friday evening
looked very cyclone like.
When an intelligent man loses his
wife if she leaves many children it is
a hard matter for him to marry from
the simple fact that he can’t get a
woman upon his level that is willing
to take the responsibility of his
children upon herself, theiefore
he don’t marry, while some men will
marry the first thing they come to
when they get to be widowers and
no matter how <ild he is he’s going to
marry if he is so old and crooked
that he can’t look up a tree, that
does not seem to mnkepuiy difference
with some.
Bad stands of corn seem to be
general in these parts. The pestiferous
birds and crows have made havoc
with it.

It is pleasant to take, assuages pain

tried it for it is indeed a magic med
icine for babies. Very respectfully.

prove that Pitts Carminative will re

The country is flooded with bogus
medicine men, and in a few esses a
heavy capital is all they have to sus
tain their prestige. Numerous cleverly
concocted certificates are forced upon
the unsuspecting, purporting to have
“snatched from the grave” some poor
victim of blood poison or other dis
easc, when to our knowledge the
identical person lay groaning in
agony while the public were rending
of their a ('markable recovery.
Another serious offense is the pub
lication (J erroneous statements con
cerning various drugs, such as are
daily prescribed by our best phys
icians, declaring them to be deadly
poisons. lodide of potash, which
i coms to receive their greatest,co»-

physicians and in the proper combi

not only harmless, but forms one of
the most powerful antagonists t<»

world. B, B. B. (Botanic Blood
Balm) contains iodide of potash.

genuine certificates from persons who
have been cured of various diseases

question now is, if iodide of potash is
