"Washington, March 4.?Before 9
o'clock fully 3,000 people had congregated
on the broad plaza to the east of
the Capitol, and on the terrace to the
west the approaches to the building,
both f^r carriages and pedestrian?,
were black with strangers going to and
from the great structure. On the
north of the building the military
companies and societies were forming
and preparing to march to the centre
of the city. Hundreds of people who
had passed the night in Baltimore, and
who arrived on the early morning
trains, lined the thoroughfares. Members
of political organizations who had
found quarters for the previous night
in the smaller hotels in the vicinity of
the Capitol stood gossipingon the subjects
of the day. Their conspicuous
high hats and overcoats of light or
. dark material, and gaudy badges of
1 red, blue or purple silk, were objects
of curiosity for the uniniatiated stranger.
An occasional rooster design
ornamented the head coverings. The
people on the east plaza stood in groups
or promenaded the length of the Capitol
with resident friends. Occasionally
a member of Congress, whose wearifrnm
thp Mtntinncd sittiny was
conspicuous, strolled with country or
town constituents and pointed ont the
objects of interest. Many of the strangers
had been unable to find a resting
place during the night and their faces
and clothes were covered with dust
and dirt. Many of them carried carpet
sacks or valises in hand, while a few
held their visiting clothes in averagesized
bandboxes. Talkative individuals
related their experiences of the
past inaugurations. An old whitehaired
man with a beard as long as Rip
Van Winkle's entertained many with
his accouut of the burning of the Capitol
by the British in 1SI4. lie saidlhe

did I think," he remarked, "when I
saw that building burning that I would
see Grover Cleveland inaugurated in
1885."
On the-east steps, at the House side
of the Capitol, three or four hundred
people had seated themselves. A few
of the early birds had secured choice
positions at 6 o'clock and had held
them with chairs which they had
brought from their own homes.
The western terrace was crowded
with spectators looking upon Pennsylvania
avenue, along which the procession
was to move. At this hour
(9 o'clock) that thoroughfare was filled
al'iiost from curb to curb with moving
humaarty^ The policemen who stood
at me eutrauucs ivrvugu wmui ycisons
\r?re to be admitted to the Capitol
wete vigorously engaged in moving
from the doorways'the hundreds
who had congregated about them.
At the basement entrance to the
east front of the Senate wing, both
men and women were using their argumentative
powers to thflucuce the
officers, but without success. Through
this entrance the Senators "Mined admission
the Senator in.'" shont
ed the lagre-sized officer present as he
gave a dozen or more men and women
a vigorous shove. .Senator Cameron
of Wisconsin was the party to enter,
lie was wedged through ami succeeded
in aiding the half dozen ladies who
accompanied him in gaining admittance.
"Let the Senator in," again
shouted the officer, and Senator Confers
slight form was squeezed between
the two, almost as closely united as
the Siamese twins. The few ladies
who accompanied the distinguished
gentlemen were the recipients of no
greater favor than were the Senators.
They were pushed through and lifted
from their feet until after they had
gotten beyond the threshold. Their
hats and bonnets were subjects for
general repair.
Bv 10 o'clock the procession began
to form in the streets ami avenues
east of the Capitol. On all sides were
to be lieard the strains of martial
mnsic. The tattoo of the drum corus
coming np one side of the Capitol
mingled with the sound of the bujfie
and the brass bands of the troops advancing
on the opposite side.
The Tammany Society from New
York was one of the first organizations
on the. ground. As the Tammany
SacberrJ attired in aboriginal costume
entered the plaza, he was accosted by
"Ugh!" "Ugh!" and other charccteristic
expressions.
The civir and military organizations,
preceded by a single drummer boy or
a band of 100 pieces, as the ca*c might
be, followed and took the positions assigned
to them.
The sun shone brillsartly on the
uunorms ui uie uvujjs imu ujcii u;i\unets
gleamed in the sunshine like a sea
of burnished steel.
At 11 o'clock the crowd hud increased
to 6,000 or 7,000 and crowded the
plaza. General Hancock and Lieutenannt
General SI cridan arrived, and
as they ascended the steps to the east
front of the Senate wing a deafening
cheer arose from the crowd. Twenty
minutes later the President's carriage
with fonr horses fairlv nrancinrr. en
tered the west end of the plaza. Prior
?" to its arrival the people stood en masse
over the east front. Policemen ou
horses rode among them and with
shouts and clubs cleared a passage
way. The carriage began to move
through the passage way preceded by
the military escort. The people cheered,
first faintly, but as the vehicle proceeded
the hurrahs increased, hats
were lifted aud thrown into the air,
aud handkerchiefs were waved above
heads both by ladies and gentlemen,
the tiny flags held by patriotic children
and their elders were waved.
The bands se*med to play with srreater
vigor and the drams were beaten
with greater vehemence; the fife's
shrill soandJ was more piercing and
the bogles' blast londer <uid loader.
The carriage was driven in front of

sage-wav benesth ,thera. It had been
\ expected that the distinguished occupants
wouid ascend the steps and
enter the building on the main floor.
When, however, it was discovered that
they would enter through the basement
passage-way* there was a rush
in that direction; but in a moment the
President and President-e'ect, the Senators
who had accompanied them in
their carriage and the Vice-Presidentelect
and his companion were within
the buildinsr and the doers were clos
ed.
Mr. Cleveland, on the arm of Senator
Sherman, went to the private entrance
of the benate Chamber and proceeded
immediately to the Vice-President's
room. President Arthur went
to the President's room, where his
Cabinet was assembled, and where he
engaged himself in signing the measures
which Congress was rushing
through the legislative halls. Hendricks
on the arm of Senator Ilawley,
entered the anartment where Cleve
land had previously ?rone.
The stand on which the President
was expected to deliver his inaugural
address was erected almost on a level
with the floors of the Senate and
House and directly in front of the

Before I he President left the Senate j
chamber the crowd in front of the j
stond had increased until it became i
one solid mass of humanity for nearly j
400 feet in front of the stand and more j
than 1,000 feet on either side. The |
crowd continued less solidly in rear ofI
this multitude. The trees in the great :
lawns were filled and the rooms of the j

Ou the roof of the Capitol some two
or three hundred men and boys had
congregated. In the approaching ave- j
nues and streets the military compa-;
nics and society organizations were
massed in colnmns, forming brilliant1
vistas as far as the eye could reach, j
Cn elevated stands enterprising pho-;
tographcrs had elevated their instru-.
ments to perpetuate in pnoiograpnic
designs the assembly ou the stand and |
the sea of hats and faces that moved
continually like -raves of the ocean.
This immense throng was variously j
estimated as to numbers. President I
Arthur subsequently said it was "sim-'
ply immense; the greatest crowd he |
ever saw." Senator Hawley as lie I
looked at it said he thought it nnm- j
bered about 150,000 people.
While waiting for the arrival of the j
President-elect some one would occa-:
sionally venture to the front of the j
platform. His presence was the sig-1
rial for repeated cheers.
Precisely at 12.30 p. m. the head of
the procession appeared coming out
of the main east door of the Capitol.
President Arthur stepped to the front
of the platform, followed by the Prcs-^j
ident-elect, Chief Justice Waite and
the Sergeant-afc-Arms of the Senate.
Ail uncovered as tney ?ooci iacing me
crowd, and the vast assemblage cheered
again and again for several minutes.
The persons who were to assist at the
ceremonies were seated on the platform
in the following order: Chief
Justice Waite and Senator Sherman
with the President-elect; the committee
of arrangements occupied scats
immediately to the right of the
President-elect: ex-President and
i- i- j A
ex-v ice-rresiuenis auu -assuuuuc
Justices of the Supreme Court,
the Vice-President, Secretary and
members of the Senate, occupied seats
further on the right; the diplomatic
corps occupied seats on the left of the
President and heads of departments;
the retired General of the army, the
Lieutenant General of the army, the
Admiral of the navy and officers
of the army and navy who by
name have received the thanks of Congress,
Governors and ex-Governors of
States and ex-members of the Senate
look their seats jnst behind the Presi- j
dent: members and members-elect.of
the House occupied seats further back j
on the olatform, and other persons in-1
eluded in the arrange man ts occupied
seats in the steps and residue of the
platform and portico.
The Vice-President's room is at the
end of the lobby in rear of the Senate
Chamber. Jt is thirty-five feet square.
A beautiful carpet of flowers in red
and dark green covers the floor. On
>the'8onth wall, beneath the American
flag presented by the ladies a few
weeks since, hangs a portrait of George
Washington, while upon the other
nrollc our! iTnr>n flift mnntol fli-p inninpll
toes of other historic personages and
of historic events. Two windows
overlook the Capitol grounds and the
city to the Norih and Howard University
awl the Soldiers' Home in the distance.
The only person unknown to
fame admitted to the Vice-President's
room was a colored attachee of the
Senate.
Mr. Cleveland paced the floor medi
lauveij until ne was accorapameu uy j
his escort to go to the hall of the
Senate.
At 12.40 p. m. President-elect Cleve-1
laud arose and began his inaugural j
address. He was clad in a full suit of I
black, Prince Albert coat, high, oldfashioned
standing collar and black
tie. Ia speaking he held his left hand
closed behind "and emphasized his,
speech by gestures with his right hand, j
He spoke without manuscript, but oc- j
casianally consulted a small piece j
of paper bearing the notes of the heads j
of his discourse. His voice was clear
and resonant, and he slowly Jen unci- j
ated his words, and occasionally turned I
about and paused as if to note thej
effect of his remarks. Ho spoke as j
follows:
The Inaugural Address.

my resolution to engage every faculty
and effort in the promotion of their
welfare.
Amid the din of party strife the |
people's choice was made, but its at-1
tjendant circumstances have demonstrated
anew the strength and safety
<if a government by the people. In
qach succeeding year it more clearly
appears that our democratic principle

and faithful application is to be found !

operation of a government wherein
qvery citizen has a share largelv depend
upon a proper limitation of purely
partisan zeal and effort and a cor-!
liect appreciation of the time when the |
licnf- of thfi nartisan shonld be merged i
&ito the patriotism of the citizen. To- !
day the executive branch of the gov- j
qrnment is transferred to new keep-;

All the people, and it should be none |
tjhe less an object of their affectionate j
Solicitude. At this hour, the anitnos-1

acientious concern for thegeneral wcaJ.;
iioreover, if from this hour we cheer- i
fully and honestly abandon all sec-j
iional prejudice and distrust, and determine,
with manly confidence iu one j
inother., to work out harmoniously the j
; Achievements of our national destiny, i

j efits which our happy form of govern- i
; inent can bestow.
I j LOYALTi" TO THE CONSTITUTION*.
ij On this auspicious occasion we may
j well renew the pledge of our devotion
! to the Constitution, which, launched j
: by the founders of the republic and I
: consecrated by their prayers and patri-'
! otic devotion, has for almost a century
j borne the hopes and the aspirations of
i a great people, through prosperity and
beace and through the shock of foreign i
conflicts and the perils of domestic i
! strife and vicissitudes. By the Father j
! bf his Country our Constitution was |
commended for adoption as "the result
j pf a spirit of amity and mutual con-1
I (cession." In that same spirit it should j
J be administered in order to promote i
KBHZKBaBMDBIBBBHtfHMlBBXEBBBBSr
? ? : i
the lasting- welfare of the country ana j
to secure the fall measure of its price- j
less benefits to us and to those who j
will succeed to the blessings of our |
national life. The large variety of I
diverse and competing interests sub-!
ject to Federal control, persistently i
seeking the recognition of their claims,
need give us no fear that "the greatest j
good To the greatest number" will fail;
to be accomplished, if in the halls of!
national legislation that spirit of amity j
and mutual concession shall prevail in
which the Constitution had its birth.!
If this involves the surrender or post- j
ponement of private interests and the j
abandonment of local advantages, j
compensation will be found in the j
assurance that thus the common inter-1
est is subserved and the general wel- j
fare advanced. In the discharge of |
my official duty I shall endeavor to be :
guided by a just ana unstrained con-!
strnction of the Constitution, a careful j
observance of the distinction between j
the powers granted to the Federal j
Government and those reserved to the !
States or to the people, and by a can-j
tions appreciation of those functions j
which, by the Constitution and laws, I
have been especially assigned to the :
executive blanch of the government. |
But he who takes the oath to-day to j
preserve, protect and defend the Con- j
stitution of the United States only
assumes the solemn obligation which j
every patriotic citizen, on the farm, in !
the workshop, in the bnsv marts of
trade, and everywhere, should share j
with him. The Constitution which
prescribes his oath, my countrymen, is
yours; tKc government you have chosen
him to administer for a time is
yours; for the suffrage which executes
the will of freemen is yours; the laws
and the entire scheme of our civil rule,
[ from the town meeting to the State
j capitals and the National Capitol, i3
! yours. Your everv^ voter, as surely
as your Chief Magistrate, under the
same high sanction, though in a different
sphere, exercises a public trust.
Nor is this all. Every citizen of ours
owes to the country a vigilant watch
and close scrutiny*of its public servants,
and a fair and reasonable estimate
of their fidelitv and usefulness.

ECONOMY IX THE GOVERNMENT.
It is the duty of those serving the
people in public place to closely limit
public expenditures to the actual needs
of the government economically administered,
because this bounds the
! right of the government to exact tribute
from the earnings of labor or the
property of the citizen, and because
public extravagance begets extravagance
among the people. We should
nfroi- n5li?iinp/l nf fl>?> simnlififv nnrl
I prudential economies which are best
suited to the operation of a republican
form of government and most compatible
with the mission of the American
people. Those who are selected for a
limited time to manage public affairs
are still of the people and may do
much by their example to encourage,
consistently with the dignity of their
official functions, that plain way of
lite which among their fellow-citizens
aids integrity and promotes thrift and
prosperity.
OL'Il FOREIGN* POLICY.
The genius of our institutions, the
needs of our people in their home life,
and the attention winch is demanded
for the settlement and development of
the resources of our vast territory,
dictate the scrupulous avoidance of
any departure from that foreign policv
commended by the history, the traditions
and the prosperity of our rcpub- i
lie. It is the policy of independence, j
favored by our position ana aeicnaea ;
by our known love of justice and by j
power. It is the policy of peace, suit-I
able to our interests. It is the policy j
of neutrality, .rejecting- any share in j
foreign broils and ambitions upon j
other continents and repelling their j
intrusion here, the policy of
Monroe and of Washington and Jefferson:
"Peace, commerce and honest
friendship with all nations, entangling |
alliances with none."
FINANCES.
A due regard for the interests and j
prosperity of all the people demand !
that our finances shall be established j
upon such a sound and sensible basis j
as shall secure the safety and confi- j
deuce of business interests and make j
the wages of labor sure and steady, and j
that oar system of revenue shall be so
adjusted as to relieve the people from
unnecessary taxation, having a due
regard to the interests of the capital
invested and the workingmen employed
in American industries, and
prevent!!)? the accumulation of a surplus
in the treasury to tempt extrava-1
gance and waste.
INDIAN" POLICY AXD POLYGAMY.
Care for the property of the nation,
and for the needs of future settlers,
require that the public domain should
be protected from purloining schemes
and unlawful occupation. The conscience
of the people demands that the
Indians within our boundaries shall be
fairly and honestly treated as wards
of the government, and their education
promoted with a view to their
lllWJIiaie UHJ/^UIlSilip , iiuu luat |;ui igomy
in the Territories, destructive of
the family relation and offensive to the
moral sense of the civilized world,
shall be repressed.
KOKEIGX PAUPER LABOR.
The laws should be rigidly enforced j
which prohibit the immigration of a j
servile class to compete with American I
labor, with no intention of acquiring I
citizenship, and bringing with them j
and retaining habits and customs re-1
pugnant to our civilization.
CIVIL SERVICE REFORM'.
The people demand reform in the
administration of the government and
the application of business principles
to public affairs. ^ As a? means to this
end, civil service reform should be in
good faith enforced. Gur citizens have
the right to protection from the incompetency
of public employes who
hold their places solely as the reward
nf nnrfisnn service and from the cor
rupting influence of those who promise*
and the victious methods of those
who expect such rewards. Ami those
who worthily seek employment have
the right to insist lhat merit and competency
shall be recognized instead of
party subserviency or the surrender of
honest political belief.
RIGHTS OF THE NEGROES.
In the administration of a government
pledged to do equal and exact
justice to all men there should be no
pretext for anxiety touching the protection
of the freedmen in their rights
or their securitv in the enjoyment of
their privileges under the Constitution
and its amendments. All discussion
as to their fitness for the place accorded ;
to them as American citizens is idle j
and unprofitable, except as it suggests
the necessity for their improvement.
The fact that they are citizens entitles
them to all the rights due to that rela-*
f 1\a?v? nil ifp

duties, obligations and responsibilities.
These topics, and the constant and
ever varying wants of an active and
enterprising population may well receive
the attention and the patriotic !
endeavor of all who make and execute j
the Federal law. Our duties are prac- !
tical and call for tlie industrious appli- j
cation of an intelligent perception of i
the claims of the public, and, above j
all, a finn determination, by united
action, to secure to all the pople of
?gn??? na?c?hb??iaeai
the land the full benefits of the best
form of government ever vouchsafed
to man. And let us not (rust to human
effort alone, but. htunbly acknowledging*
the power and goodness of Almighty

destiny of nations, and who has at all
times been revealed in oiTr country's
hisfnrr. let n> invoke Ilis aid and His
blessing upon onr labors.
Taking the Oath.
When lie began the crowd applauded
whenever he paused to take a breath,
but after awhile contented itself with
cheering him as he made his principal
points. His reference to the prohibition
of foreign contract labor called
out loud and long continued applause,
but his allusion to civil service reform

brief, and at precisely two minutes
after 1 o'clock he concluded with the
invocation of the blessings of Providence,
and turning to the Chief Justice
and bowing to him, said: "lam
now prepared to take the oath prescribed
by law."
As the Chief Justice arose to administer
the oath the vast assemblage
r.hcereri a (rain and a?ain. The Presi
denl-elcct stood facing1 the Chief Justice
with the crowd on his right. Chief
Clerk McKennev of the Supreme
Court stood just to the side of Mr.
Cleveland and held the Bible upon
which the oath was administered, the
President-elect also holding it with his
right hand. The Bible used is aimall
Morocco-covered gilt-edge Volume,
pretty well worn. It is the Bible
which Mr. Cleveland's mother gave
mm wnen ne leic nome as a young
man, and at liis special request the
Committee of Arrangements had it in
readiness- for the ceremony. The
crowd preserved perfect quiet- as the
impressive ceremony of administering
the oath was taking place, but jgien it
was coucluded and as PresidenroJIeYeland
laid down the Bible after reverently
billing it and shuok hands with
the Chief Justice, who was the first to
congratulate him, they cheered loud
and lon<r.
Ex-President Arthur was the second
man t'- congratulate the President,
and then followed Chief Clerk McKenney
and Senator Sherman. President
Cleveland was then introduced to
the remaining Judge* of the Supreme
Court, to Lieutenant-General Sheridan
and General Hancock. The remaining
persons on the platform then pressed
forward and many of them shook his
hand. As he re-entered the Capitol he
was again greeieu wnn cneers. ne
walked into the basement entrance
where he first came into the building
and entered the carriage to be driven
in procession to the White House.
Tli? Procession.
At the conclusion of the ceremonies
at the Capitol, the procession escorted
the Presidential party back to the
White House. The two carriages containing
President Cleveland, ex-President
Arthur, Vice-President Hendricks
and the Senate Committee of Arrangements
took positions in the first division
and the line started. The
greatest enthusiasm was manifested all
-
illUIJg IIJU I'UUIC. JL11U U?/Wl I Ull LliC
sidewalks had increased so that it was
impossible to pass through it. Many
people were forced into the roadway,
and the police had all they could do to
keep the line open for the procession.
When the front of the line reached
Fifteenth street a halt was made, and
the carriage containing the President
and ex-President lefc the line and proceeded
by way of Executive Avenue to
tIip White TTnnse_ which fhev entered
by the rear door.
After a short interval the President
appeared 011 the grand stand, to review
the procession.
The view from the Presidential
stand was a grand sight, and it was
the generally expressed opinion that
110 more brilliant pageant had ever
been witnessed in this conntry. All
the organizations gave the marching
salute as they passed the grand stand,
and the President at first recognized
the compliment by raising bis hat to
every separate conmand, but the
length of the line and the chilliness of
the breeze which sprang np compelled
him before the second division passed
to keep his head covered, and in most
cases to limit his acknowledgments to
a slight bow. In view of the fact that
the procession was three honrsin passing,
it is not a matter for surprise that
he had to abandon his intention of
standing with his head nncovered
throughout the review. It is estimat
cd that there were at least 2o,OUO men
in the procession. The first division
consisted of United States troops; the
second of Pennsylvania troops under
Gen. Uartranft; the third of troops under
Gen. Fitz Hngh Lee,of Virginia;
and the fourth of civic organizations under
Maj. Thos. J. Lnttrell. Gen. Fitz
Hugh Lee, commanding the third division.
received an ovation from the
crowd in and around the President's
stand. He bowed to the President
and the latter raised his hat in return.
Among the Southern companies attracting
especial attention were the
Clarke Light Infantry, of Augusta,
Ga., and the Governor's Guards, of
Columbia, S. C.
Vice-President Hendricks felt somewhat
fatigued and retired to the Exec
utive Mansion for rest before all the
procession passed. Many other perIaTI

parade was over, because ;of weariness.
At the conclusion of the review the
President aud; party proceeded to the
dining-room of the Whi'e House,
where they partook of a lur.ch prepared
for them by ex-President Arthur.
There were present the members of cxPresident
Arthur's Cabinet, Mr. Vilas,
Mr. Manning, Mr. Lamont and several
others.
A Xote of Warning to Suffering:
Humanity.
We feel that we would be wanting
in the duty we owe to suffering humanitv
if we did not sound a note of warning
in regard to the use of Mercury
and other poisonous minerals in the
treatment of Blood and Skin Diseases.
If the reader could see the horrible
suffering, the awful wrecks of human
health and happiness, shown by our
correspondence with those who have
been dosed with these mineral poisons
He would snuaaer wnn norror. -arsenic,
Mercnry, Antimony and Iodide of
Potassium are some of the remedies
most ordinarily nsed for these diseases
and they are all POISON. Do not
take these poisons. They might dry
up your disease for a few days, ancl
with it you will have Mercurial Rheumatism,
which may bring- you years of
torture. The Mercury "seems to sink
into the bones, and the Potash drives
the Poison into the system, only to
kirk there and attack the tender
organs of the body, as the lungs, the
throat, the nasal organs and stomach.
Hundreds of people have been made
deaf, and a great many blind, by the
use of Mercury and Potash. Beware
of Mercury and Potash Mixtures gotten
up in imitation of our Specific. A
few grains of sugar of lead dropped
into a glass of these imitations will
cause the poisouous drugs to fall to
bottom, and show the danger of using
them. Swift's Specific is entirely vegetable,

ASK IOUK BANKER.
Atlanta, December IS, 1884.
To thK Constitution: I have been a resident
of Atlanta 20 years, and am known
by a large portion of its citizens: am 80
years of age and seldom intrude myself in
public print.
For these and other reasons I ask a place
in your valuable paper, that I may lay before
your numerous readers some truths
which should sink deep in the heart of
every man and woman.
Tliese have become the palmiest days of
m-ir lifo?T <im <tnil :I!) nnmifl-i
more than I ever did in my life. I am a
changed man; and really growing fat and
saucy. 1 eat hearty, have good digestion,
sleep soundly, walk the streets with activity
and feel that renewed manhood has
returned. But now to the point. What
effected the happy transformation, you
ask? Well, sir, forty years ago?yes, forty,
and I mean it?I was attacked with a
severe form of bleeding piles, and shortly
afterwards erysipelas and neuralgia claimed
me as tlieir victim. These troubles
combined, gradually sapped mv life?reducing
me in flesh and strength, and filled
me with aches and pains which resisted all
treatment.
r\ .1 i ,
VJIIC uu) wuuc lauicuuii^ uij wuuiuuu,
a friend suggested the use of that new
Atlanta remedy which is creating such a
furore round about and is springing up like
magic. Being 50 years old and my disease
being chronic, I was loath to believe that
I could be cured. But, sir, the article referred
to was purchased and used as directed.
One bettle settled the question.
Magical, sir, is not too strong. Relief was
almost instantaneous. I continued its use
and it soon conquered all neuralgic pains,
and whipped out every vestige of erysipelas.
I gained strength and flesh rapidly,
and my whole system was regenerated. It
worked on my blood, sir, it cast out all impurities
and" put all the wheels and machinery
in motion. Although I did not
take it for the Piles, it cured them
completely, with which I had been afflicted
forty yean?. For over a quarter of a centurv
mv liver has also criven me crreat trou
ble with its torpidity nnd inactivity, hut
that organ lias been completely upset and
made anew and now gives me no trouble
whatever. All these wonderful changes
have been produced by the use of B. B. B.
?Botanic Blood Balm?the quickest, the
f-andest and most powerful blood remedy
ever knew. And, sir. I have watched its
effects on others, and the cures have been
almost incredible. It is not a humbug, it
will do all that is claimed for it, and the
people of Atlanta show their appreciation
of its merits by the unparalleled demand
here at home.
T-rw*. fl.n ,rv4? l.t.tvtirt
ity generally, and especially those who are
suffering from some form of blood or skin
disease, piles, neuralgia, b'ood poisons,
derangements of the kidneys, chronic
ulcers, or from scrofula and catarrh and
rheumatism, I say take an old man's advice
and try just one bottle of B. B. B. to
be convinced of its wonderful powers. It
is a blessing and no family should be
without it, as it is good for men, women
and children. It builds up and repairs
broken down constitutions with amazing
rapidity, and is a powerful tonic.
I voluntarily write what I know to be
true, and refer to General L. J. Gartrell,
Judge George Hillyer, Dr. Fred Palmer,
John H. James. P. H. Snook, and in fact
to almost any banker, merchant or lawyer
of Atlanta. Thanking you for so much
sp?ce in your valu ible journal,
I am truiy yours,
MarllLly " Geohge B. Fkazer.

OFFICE 44 Murray St., New York.
Warren Leland,
whom everybody knows as the successful
manager of the
Largest Hotel Enterprises
of America, says that while a passenger from
New York oa board a ship going around Cape
Horn, in th# early days of emigration to California,
he learned that one of the officers of
tie vessel naa curea nxmseii, auringiue yojage,
of aa obstinate disease by the use of
Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
Since then Mr. Lelam> has recommended
Ayer's Sahsapabilia in many similar
case3, and he has never -yet heard of its failure
to effect a radical core.
Some years ago one of Mr. Lelajtd's farm
laborers braised his leg. Otviug to the bad
state of his blood, anngly scrofulous swelling
or lamp appeared on the injured limb. Horrible
itching of the skin, xrith burning and
darting pains through the lump, made life
almost intolerable. The leg became enormously
enlarged, and running ulcers formed,
discharging great quantities of extremely
offensive matter. No treatment tras of any
avail until the man, by Mr. Lelaxd's direction,
was supplied will* Ayee's SaesapaEilla,
which allayed the pain and irritation,
healed the sores, removed the swelling, and
completely restored the limb to use.
Mr. Lelasp has personally used
Ayer's Sarsaparilla
W M
for Rheumatism, villi entire success; and,
after carefol observation, declares tint, in
his belief, there is no medicine in the v.orld
equal to it for the cure of Liver Disorders,
Croat, the effects of high living. Salt
Bheum, Sores, Eruptions, and all tho
various forms of blood diseases.
We have Mr. Lelasd's permission to inTite
all who may desire further evidence in regard
to the extraordinary curative powers of
Atee'S Saesapaeilla to see him personally
either at bis mammoth Ocean Hotel,
Long Branch, or at the popular Leland Hotel,
Broadway, Zlth and 28tfc streets, .Ciew lone.
Mr. Lela^d's extensive knowledge of the
good done by this unequalled cradicator of
blood poisons enables him to give inquirers
much valuable information.
