A Bad Nasal Organ. 1 For over four years I have been'a great ans I serer from a terrible form of Nasal Catarrh. I was greatly annoyed with a constant roaring ' in my head and my hearing k became very j much impaired. The discharge from my nose was"profu»e and very offensive, and my general health impair ed. I tried most all prominent physicians, but they did not cure me, and 1 used various advertised preparations without benefit. One day I chanced to read a remarkable ar tie e written by a prominent citizen of Athens, Ga., stating that he had been permanently enroll by the use of eight bottles of B. B. B. Botanic Blood Balm. Being skeptical on the subject, I wrote to him on the subject and re ceived a most encouraging answer to the ( fleet that he had been cured long enough to bo thoroughly satisfied that no return of the dis ease would ensue. 1 then sent to the drug store of T. E. Smith A Bro., and purchased B. B. 8., and to my utter astonishment and satisfaction, the use of ten bottles has restored my general health, stopped the roaring sensation, entiiely healed and cured the nasal catarrh and 1 ain proud to recommend a blood remedy with such pow erful curative properties. I shall continue its use a little longer and feel confident that 1 will be'entirely cured of one of the most obstinate cases of nasiil.c.itarrh in the country. The business men of our town know of my case. N. 0. Edwards. Lninpassas Springs, Texas, May 1, 1886. of a Tescan. For six years I have been afflicted with biood poison, which continued to increase, while physicians were attempting to cure me. One bottle of B. B. B. has made me feel like a new man, and 1 am now rapidly recovering. W. H. Davis. San Marcos, Texas, May 3, 1886. Bad Blood at Brunswick, Ga. I have tried B. B. B. and found it a great thing for the blood. 1 also had Rheumatic Pains ami the use of one bottle B. B. B. has done the work, but 1 will finish up on the sec ond bottle as a a clincher. May God spread it to every one is my prayer. W. R. Eixir. Brunswick, Ga., April 23, 1886.

THE BEST MEETING IX YEARS. Circumstances of a serious nature prevented our attendance upon the meeting until Sunday night. In ! response to duty, with a sad heart however, in company with a friend we left Harlem at 2:30 Sunday afternoon, reaching the famous camping ground after the shadows had lengthened to a considerable degree and near the hour for tea. Everything was favor able for our trip, it w;w cloudy and no dust of any consequence. On we sped behind an elegant pait of hors es, anxious to reach our destination. Upon reaching the home of our hospitable friend, Mr. Geo. E. Larkin, i we were halted and invited to alight and visit Lis scuppernong arbor, an invitation which we very eagerly • though graciously accepted. Upon reaching this favored spot an arbor fully fifty yards long groaning under the weight of the luscious (favorite) fruit, greeted our vission. We help ed ourselves abundantly, bndo our I friend adieu and continued our jour | nev. At the grounds wo mot friends by the score and hearty hand shaking and welcome words were the order of the evening. Wo found the people ripe for a i glorious meeting. The attendance i was not so great as in former years, but the manifest good feeling and workings mid wooing of the Spirit . compensated for the detieoncy in numbers. Accessions to the church 1 and bright conversions were numer ous. The best order prevailed thioughout. The preaching was ex ceptionally good, and the nccommo dations were unbounded. No one could fail to have a good time at old White Oak, spiritually or socially or both. We always look forward with profound’pleasure to the time when these annual reunions will occur. The public tent was presided over by that prince of good fellows, Chas. E. Knox, of Thomson. Too much cannot be said of him as a host. J E. Wilson, of Thomson, and C. B. A vary looked after the welfare of the horses and, provided away for visitors to go to and from the grounds. Tuesday afternoon wo very re luctantly said goodbye to friends and loved ones and turned our face home ward via Thomson, them wo changed cars for Harlem, reaching hero in good shape at 7:20 Long may camp meeting live and prosper.

The killi )g of a negro train bund, name I Warren Frazier, was the cause of much excitement hero Tuesday.— The accident which caused his death seemed to bo the fruit of rather a careless act.

C. Akridgo saw him just ns he made the fatal leap, but saw him no more until ho lay cold ami mangled in death. Mr. C. J Clifford, J.

Conner, of the North Georgia Conference, was born in Hephzibah, Richmond county, (In, Oct. 12, 1853. Married Nov. 7, 1872, in Jefferson, Jackson county, Ga., end passed from the homo she loved so well, in Har lem, (In., to the “bettor bind," Au gust 27, 1887. Truly, the shadows nro passing through our hind. The “silent mes senger" liiih entered one ot the bright est, sweetest homes iu our midst, laid his chilly band upon the loving wife and devoted mother, whoso presence made tho spot, so dear, and borne her to a brighter home, made ready by the blessed hands of Him who sniil, “I go to prepare a place for you." An “angel harp" has boon given her, and her song, though hush ed to us, is heard mingling with the spotless robed throng around the great, white throne. When n child of not more than 10, years she united with the church, and' ever lived the life of n devoted follow er of Um blessed Saviour; and only a few weeks ago remarked to her adopted mother, “I do no| remember when I did not try to live a Chris tian." To the pome, sion of many personal charms, agreeable and gentle man ners, hli<> united the “ornament of a meek and quiet spirit,” which with her kind and obliging disposition, chaste and pleasant conversation, won, for her many faithful friends. Ah a wife, the heart of her husband did Hiifely hunt in her; boing’endow ed with superior mental capacities, he consulted her in all matters, and ever found her counsel safe; truly she was an helpmeet in Hie noblest sense of the term. As a mother, ah! who can tell of the deep, untiring de votion to the four little boys who are now motherless, the one paramount object of her life soetned to be to train them for such usefulness iu this world ns would insure them an entrance into a brighter and bettor one. Verily, it may be said she lived, for those she loved. She was devoted to her large and. interesting Sabbath School class and met them .'iiithfully each Sabbath, unless providentially hindered. But her Saviour bad need of her in a brighter world and after ton short days of excruciating pain and burn ing fever, t<s)k her to himself, leaving behind bleeding hearts, crushed hopes and a desolate, darkened home. Yet, thanks be to our Father, 'tie not a hopeless grief. We w*ep that we will see her lovely face no more, but the holy religion which she pro fessed is the beacon light pointing to that bright world which has gairedt one angel more to join the innumer able host iu singing the praises of God and the Lnmb by the living wa ll,™, and beneath the shade of the. tree of life forever. Tn the village cemetery, beside the little cherub she laid away nearly six years ago, we have laid her to rest, until the reeuraectiou morn, when, mortal shall put immortality and, death be swallowed up in victory.” One That Loved LLui,.
