Snatched from the Grave. In his testimonial attesting the virtues of Radam's Microbe Killer, Mr. M. C. Battey, well and popular known from his connections with the Queen andCrescen I railroad, presents a picture of the results of blood-poisoning which cannot but have its weight with evenly ballanced minds. Blood poisoning comes to the sufferer in such an insid ious shape 'that it is only discovered when, under ordinary circumstances, it is too late to combat it. According to his well-authenticated statement, Mr. Battey was veritably snatched from the grave by Radam's Microbe Killer, and hence gives to the world his faith in it as a cure for blood pois oning, while others tell of it as having cured them of consumption and kin dred diseases.
