HANCOCK'S LIQUID SULPHUR.
The Best Blood Purifier Known
—Invaluable as a Wash.
Sulphur is nature’s greatest germicide.
Its value has known for centuries, but it
was never successfully produced as a li¬
quid until the discovery of the method
of making Hancock’s Liquid Sulphur.
It is the best blood purifier known.
Hancock’s Liquid Sulphur will save doc¬
tor’s bilks and make clear, brilliant com¬
plexions. Taken internally, it is inval¬
uable in the spring. Used as a wash, it
kills germs, and cures and heals eczema,
acne, itch, dandruff, prickly heat, dip
theria, catarrh, cuts, burns, scalds, and
all inflammations and sores.
Ask your druggist for it, or write for
booklet to Hancock Liquid Sulphur Co.

country was brought on by Reid
and Cato who killed and burned
a whole family, and the country
people are going to run out all
the mean negroes- Here in town
