Weakness.'
How many suffer from weakness!
And what a distressful ailment it is.
Alwavs praying for strength and yet
reeling oneseii growing weaner anu
weaVer. There is great virtue in B
B B (Botanic Blood Balm) as a
strengthening as well as a healing
medicine. Try it as a tonic and see
how much better you will feel. It
will improve both appetite and di
gestion. It is an excellent remedy
to use while convalescing. It aids a
natural and rapid recovery. In cae
where an invalid has remained long
in bed and bed sores or other ulcers
breakout, this remedy will afford
quick relief.
W. M. Cheshire, Atlanta, Gu.,
writes: "I had a long spell of
typhoid fever, which at last seemed
to settle in niv right leg, which
swelled up enormously. An ulcer
also appeared which discharged a
etipful of matter a day. I then gave
B B B a trial and it cured me."
A Merry Company."
The house, as. well as the piece,
justified the above name for thp en
tertainment at the Opera Hotise last
night. The spacious building was
filled (almost literally but not quite
so) ffom pit to dome." But it was
a large house and a'thoroughly de
lighted one. The piece, thanks to
the care and prepartion which had
been -bestowed upon it, was beauti
fully presented and the young par
ticipants won for themselves the
hearty applause df the audience.
Prof. Nobles was aided in the train
ing of the children and the pre
sentation of the piece by Miss Nellie
Cook and Mrs. M. L. McLeod and
Miss Belle Anderson was the accom
plished and efficient pianist. The
presentation of the piece, was a
happy cise to the school term and
teachers and pupils alike may now
take a long rest before plunging into
their studies caia in the Fall. '
