a1 2l about bustles. A Subject ox Great Inter?st to 3Iea, Women and Cliil(lxeii--And Especially to freight j Aijciits# (From tho I'ctv York T:rac-.-j.) A very interesting controversy has been agitating the minus and hearts of tlie freight agents of transcontinental railroads, the pool commissioners, the s\r* *v?r?- r\ +r* /^^^^iccirinAyQ and California dry goods merchants since early in February. And it is all a bo at bustle;-. Although this article Las long occupied a place'of dignity and prominence in the varo.robe of the properly a:>pareled v/oman, and has formed an important item in the basins":; of merchants, manufacturers, cartoonists ana common carrier.?, it had not, until the July revision, occupied a place on the freight tariff. Then un ciassmea tiry goods paid ->i per nunurea freightage to San I-'rancisco, while hoopskirts, under the classification of "wire goods, were assessed only $1.G0 per hundred. It was consequently the custom ox merchants to ship "bustles as "wire goods" or "hoopshirts" indifferently, so describing therein the bills of lading and paying the low ?>r rate of charges. Thousands of cases had zhus been shipped and passed by the freight agents without question, and the goods had been sold and gone into circulation, when an unlucky manufacturer, in February last, sent to Stiofel, Sachs & Co., of San Francisco, a case of these goods deseribaA ;-r. UiV-. lo^vnrr <ic< "Knctlpc: " W.V4. uixu >JJJUIO iaui-;-, ? *? ? The guileless California freight agent, knowing little and professing to know nothing oi ihis mvsterions distender of i my lady's dress and supporter of her skirts and hoops, looked in vain for the rate on bustles in the tariff catalogue. He, therefore, charged the rate on unclassified dry goods of $3 and precipitated the contest by sending in his bill The merchants protested against the payment, and the matter was referred to the generai trallic managers of tie roads in Xew York. Some of these were married men who professed to know something about bustles, for all of their wives were supposed to wear them. .In elderly gentleman from among the benedicts was indignant 1 if r d 7~.L over wnat ne termec. tne "muw bauicifuge" of classing bustles as hoopskirts or wire goods when there wasn't a bit of wire nor a hoop of any kind about them. He ought to knew, for his wife had worn a bustle for years. The article was made of feathers and cloth; two long narrow bags just vide enough to?to?veil, to escape being sat on, vers sewed together, the larger one below, and fastened on with strings. Some of the younger men seemed amused at his description, and one inquired if old newspapers were ever employed for stuffing instead of feathers. A vise looking man, of mature years and a large family of girls, said he had it on the best of authority that the newspaper -bustle existed only in the column's of alleged funny papers. A well constructed bustle wss tilled with curled hair and a stili better quality with wool. In former years he had purchased such articles himself and he felt that he was an authority upon the subject. The preponderance of testimony, although it did not agree as to details, was clearly so far against 4:wire goods" and "hoopskirts," and the traffic managers seemed about to sustain the charge of three dolkrs per hundred, as unclassified dry good?, ?hen a young married man with a scab on *his nose, "who had listened thus far without speaking, said he thought there must be something in the wire theory of construction. He had gone home a little late the week before a little the worse for wear, and was making a manly effort to get to bed without disturbing his silent partner, when his foot caught in something that felt like a bird cago aooui his ankle and 7-?/r\ -.1 tl f nek JJJLtVU-wU JIV~ vi. U.? o-i. i_\^ mantel, which lie found with his nose. He uttered an exclamation which transformed his silent partner into one of the ^ most active hind ox partners, and compelled an explanation. A light being p'vauced the wreck of the object that had caused him to fall was brought up for imprecation and analysis. It "was his first offence, and his wife therefore allowed her concern over his mishap to dominate her indignation over the condition in which he presented himself. So she plastered his nose and said the wreck didn't matter; it could be easily replaced. "But where's the rest of it, and what's become of the bird?" he asked. "The bird! what do you mean?" hi wife exclaimed. "Why, isn't that part oi a bird cage?" he inauired. "A"bird cage! Ea! iia.I??yes, if i an your little birdie, as I used tc be? that's my bustle," she said. This explanation gave color ::o the "Viie goods" theory, bat still they were not sufficiently informed and more light on the subject had to be obtained. After debating various propositions as to where they should go for that light, they iinally concluded to go to the shippers themselves. Here they met ilr. Strauss, the bookkeeper, who explained to them that the bustle of commerce was composed of wire and hoops and crinoline. In former years they hid been built of cotton and excelsior arid Lair and wool and feathers and other things, but never, he thought, of newspapers. Now they ; were nearly ail of wire, and as there was J no classification of bustles and the 1 article had superseded hoopskirts, they , felt^that they were only doing right in : billing them as wire goods. At any rate I * these were wire goods and they would maintain their right to their classification as such. Apples were always fruit, . . but not all fruit were apples, and although not all wire gocds were bustles, . and bustles in this day and generation were wire goods. This view prevailed. The elderly mar- j ried and the wise looking father of so many daughters looked as if they had forgo teen to remember something, and j silently chimed in with the general judg ment, and bustles were allowed to pass j as wire goods' over their lines, paying j one dollar and fifty cents freight per one | hundred pounds. But the freight agents i were unwilling to give up completely, so they have had the tariff commission-! ers fix the newly classified articles at two } dollars per one hundred.

A corresi^ondent of the Xew York Su: j from Fort Scott, Kansas, writes: Thi j city is excited over the problem of mixe ; schools. This question had been ; source of disturbance at the opening c I every school term up to 1SSA, when I 1 fn-n I JLiCW OV/llUlM UUUCCJ WJ-i XV/w i rooms, was built exclusively for the co. j ored children at the request of the co. ored people themselves. It was regulaj ; ly graded and four competent colore | teachers employed. This seemed t j give entire satisfaction until the preser I year. During the past summer thre I new school houses were built to accon : modate the increasing pupilage of th ; city. These were restricted to th i whites, giving them seven out of th ; eight school houses of the city. Th j colored population have made up the; ' minds that this is an unjust discrimini : tion, and now insist on mixed schools i ; order that they may enjoy equally wit 1 J /-v f ^Ia r\r*r\ 1 r ; ii-tu wuliicd vile ui lucsc xj.

The board, however, which is strongl Republican, have, with the exception c , Mr. Lemore, sternly resisted this and ii ! I structed the superintendent and teacher J of the different schools to exclude th ; colored children should they attempt t : enter. . | On the opening day last week delegt j tions of colored children, accompanie i by adult representatives, appeared i ; considerable numbers at four of th i school houses and demanded admissiox ; i This was refused them.

Cincinnati, September 21.? George ! alias Henry Williams, ayouDg colored in an was arrested by detectives this morning a ; 'Hogshead John's" lodging house, upoj information received that he was a fugitive from justice. Williams made a confessioi i to the police authorities which clears uj the mystery of the JSeighbon murder . which occurred near Memphis last Febru ary. A family by the name of Iscighbon ; consisting of six persons, were murdere( by robbers who had awakened them fron their sleep. 2s o clue was ever found of th< According to Williams' confession h< was approached on the levee at Mem phi; ! by two colored men with whom he hud i ' slight acquaintance, and was asked to assisi them in a robbery. He replied that h< -would do so. The names of these men ar< George Hood of Columbus, Miss., and Bil Carroll, of Nashville. Carroll had a largt dirk knife and Hood a pistol. When thej came in sight of the Neighbon house Williams says he became frightened and re fused to proceed further. Then they gave him some whisky and told him to tell them if any one came. Hood and Carroll then entered the house. About fifteen minutes afterward Williams ii^rd sr-reams and shots from the inside. Presently lie was joined by Hood and was joined by Hood and Carroll, who, in reply to a question, said they had "got a pile of money and jewelry." They took a freight train to Corinth and at Carroll's request Williams next day bought a Memphis Appeal containing an account of the murder. The three traveled together as far as Lexington, Ky., where he was arrested. After his release he came to Cincinnati several days ago: A Peculiar Break for Liberty. William Mooney, white, one of a gang of convicts engaged at work upon the State Ifnnee htiildiner. made a break for lihr-rtv at half-past 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Managing to get out of sight of the guard, he dashed up Senate street. As soon as he was discovered the guard fired, but with no effect. The convict continued running, but at a slow pace, muttering as he went along that he did not care whether he was killed or not. He was leisurely followed by 31 r. A. F. Funderburk, who happened :o be nearby. When 3Iooney arrived near he corner of Lady and Sumter streets he vas as harmless as-a child, being out of jreatb, unable to run and crying at every itep that he was sick. 31 r. Funderburk hen grasped him and delivered him to the juard. 3Iooney is well known in this city, havng been raised here, lie was sent to the penitentiary about three months ago to erve a six "months' sentence for vagrancy.

The Widow of John Hughes in Coiilroated j with the Claim of Another Woman to Sun- j tain thai Kelaticm. (Special to the News and Courier.) Gi:ke:>villi;, September .22.?A story that contains something of the romance of: life, as it really is, was developed in a hear j ing before Probate Judge S. J. Dourhit to- j day. L;ist Christmas day John Hughes i was shot and killed by Richard H. Jacobs, j near this city. Jacobs was a wealthy and ! widely known farmer, nearly CO years of ; age. Hughes was an illiterate white man, i wno had been in the neighborhood only a j short while and who was a tenant on Ja- j cobs's farm. He had come to Jacobs's p':2ce from Spartanburg county. ' When he was killed lie had a family con- i " * ' r 'C" aU'i/Uaw 1 C/.Ahc i SlSUBtJ VI 11 UiiC UUU MA tUUUUii. vuvvw I was tried for the murder of Hughes. ?nd, being convicted of manslaughter, was sentenced to rive years' imprisonment. He is now at liberty on a bond of $5,000. Soon after the conviction of Jacobs, 2?lrs. Saliie Hughes, widow of the murdered man, brought suit against Jacobs for ?10,000 damages for the killing of her husband, having previously taken out letters administration. Shortly after this suit was brought a new phase was put on the matter by the appearance here of a woman who claimed to be the legal wife of John om r\1 f\Trf*f] Jit !JL out VV? torneys and entered a petition before tlie probate judge to set aside the letters of ad nnulctration previously granted to Sailie Hughe? The hearing to-day was ou that petition. The new claimant to the position of widow of the murdered man is a woman of good appearance, about oG years old. Mrs. Amanda Malvina Hughes is her name and she comes from Habersham county, Ga. She says that Hughes came to that section in 1SG9 from his home in Pickens county. She was then a widow seventeen years his senior, but she married him. About 1674 he got into trouble and was compelled to leave Habersham. She refused to go with him, and he left her and their two children and came back to South Carolina. He very soon married Sailie Hughes, his cousin, in Pickens, and they had six children. Finally he landed in Greenville and was killed. He led a wandering life, staying nowhere longer than a year. This story was corroborated to-day by several witnesses, among them W. J. Owin, who was Ordinary of Habersham county, where the marriage license was issued to Hughes and his Georgia wife. Captain A. Blythe and Col. W. C. Benet were attorneys for the petitioner and J. T. Nix and and B. N. Shuman for the respondents. Further hearing was continued till the 30th inst. If the validity of the first marriage is proved the suit for $10,000 against Jacobs falls to the ground. The Cotton Movement. The New York Financial Chronicle, in its review of the cotton movement, says that fnr flip troplr finrSinfr this pvftninff (September 16) the total receipts have reached 126,041 bales, against- 85,437 bales last week, 39,309 bales the previous week, and 19,270 bales three weeks since; making the total receipts since the 1st os September, 1SS7, 226,997 bales, against 126,259 bales for the same period of 1886, showing an increase since September 1st, 1886, of 100,738 bales. The exports for the week reach a total of 33,770 bales, of which 31,371 were to Great Britain, to France, and 2.399 to the rest of the continent. The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 476,100 bales. For immediate delivery the total sides foot up this week 3,267 bales, including 10 for export and 3,257 for consumption. Of the above, SSO bales were to arrive. The ' imports into continental ports during the week have been 14,000 bales. There has been an increase in the cotton in sight of 203,826 bales as compared with the same date of 1886, an increase of 123,8S1 bale3 as compared with the corresponding dato of 1885, and a decrease of 167,921 bales as compared with 1884. The above totals show that the old interior stocks have increased during the week 14,204 bales, and are 1?S44 bales more than at the same period last year. The receipts at the same towns have been 29,491 bales more than the same week last year, and since September 1st the receipts at all the towns are 42,339 bales more than for the same time in 18S6. The total receipts from the plantation;; since September 1st, 1887, are 255,679 bales; in 1886 were 129,061 bales; in 1SS5 were 179,716 bales. -Although the receipts at the outsorts the x>ast week were 126, Oil bales, tlie actual movement from plantations was 143,799 bales, the balance going to increase the stocks al; the interior towns. Last year the receipts from the plantations for the same week were 73,020 bales, and for 1SS5 they were 94,333 bales. The Chronicle says that the speculation in cotton for future delivery opened on Saturday last with a smart advance, due to the report from the Agricultural Bureau at Washington on the condition of the crop at the end of August. This was even more unfavorable than the bulls had expected, and caused an active demand, prices closing 5@8 points dearer than Friday. Monday was depressed by free sales to realize and the ! large crop movement, ana luesaay was variable and unsettled. Wednesday developed some irregularity. There was a general advance on favorable foreign advices, but free tenders of low grades on | September contracts broke this month I eight points and weakened the whole list. Thursday the market opened depressed j by the weak Liverpool report. The early ! business was largely "notching"?thatis, | selling September and buying January, J and finally there was a general advanc'e. Friday there was a variable and unsettled market, without important change. Cotton on the spot has been less active. Buyers held off. New England spinners ; began to get supplies of new cotton from | the South. Quotations were reduced i l-16c. on Tuesday and 3-16c. on Wednes-! day. Friday there was a further de- J cline of 2-lt>c., middling uplands closing j at 9 13-1 Gc. The weather reports of the Chronicle indicate that the weather has been exceedingly favorable for the gathering of the crop during the week. Picking is therefore making very rapid progress, and the movement of cotton to market is much freer than at this time in previous seasons. Smuggling Jn Bnatlps. New Yoek, September 19.?Deputy j ( Collector McClelland nassed his hand over bi3 brow at the custom house to-day and t said: "Bustles are driving nie crazy.

It t strikes like a thunderbolt in the heart of every freeman. The judges who have ^ affirmed the sentence stand on a level with ( the notorious police bandit Captain Bon- s , ik-ld, v.ith the barbarous persecutor Eber- i sold, with the monumental perjurer Schaack, with the corrupt jury, with the j j tiger of the bar Grinnell and with the < ; scoundrel of all scoundrels, Gary, the mani - imorTr'' / ?ri m a r\i i 1 j UU,CI UJ.

Congressman Cox was in "Washington j Friday inspecting his new residence on Du; pout "Circle. Mr. Cox has greatly imj proved this summer. In conversation he i said: "I really do not know what is going on politically; I have been diligently enj gaged in literary work during the summer." I In response to a question as to what will ! be done with the tariff at tho coming session ! of Congress Mr. Cox said he had not been ! consulted on the subject, nor had he coni ferred with other Democrats. He knew i the President was anxious about the matter j from a conversation he had with him some ; time ago. He added that it is plainly I nccesaury lor lliu jL^muuntus to uu iotuei tiling. "Kandall is potentiality,''lie said, "and ; I presume nobody except himself knows } wh:tt he will do." Mr. Cox said he would | be willing to compromise with the protec| tionist element of the party for the sake of ; procuring harmonious action. He would j be willing to remove the tax on tobacco, ' because that would benefit the producers, but he could not countenance the repeal of : the tax on whisk}'. There were too many necessaries taxed to think of taking the tax from whisky. While he had no means of knowirg just what the protectionist element would do, he presumed from what he I had heard and read that it would insist j upon the repeal of the entire internal tax. | "Xot only party poljcy, but public : ! r*iVli/r'V tlia nit hi!r- <rnrvl " "\fr C'rw ty.

The Valley Mutual Life Association, * of Virginia, began business September J 3d, 1S7S. Guarantee fund, invested in J bonds and mortgages (nrst hen on real t estate), ?108,000. The Valley Mutual Life Association of j Virginia is the largest and the leading I Life Association in the South. Over j .one million of dollars has been paid in I cash to thfl families of deceased memi bers. The cheapness of its plan is demonstrated by the experience of those who are insured. In illustration of this fact, we take Policy No. 3, held by Mr. W. P. Tarns, Cashier of the Augusta National Bank, Staunton, Va.,?Policy issued September 23, 1878,?$1,000?consequently it has shared every cost that has come against the Company. The entire cost to Mr. Tams in eight years and six months, Membership Tee, Annuals, and Mortality payments, has been but $70.44, s?/-.rv4- GO OO A 4- V ui an avcia^g aiiuuaji wob ui aL , L the date of this insurance Mr. Tarns was t 27 years of age. o A. policy of even amount and date in h one of the most popular Old Line com- h panies on the ordinary life plan, payable h at death only, would have" cost him a $192.75, or $21.50 per year?a saving of si $122.31 in favor of the Valley Mutual. h Theories are easily advanced and jeal- d ous rivals abound in them, but facts can s] not be refuted. s1 First-class agents can get liberal con- fi tracts by applying to tc LEE HAGOOD, it Manager So.

'he Hon. William ('. Oates Chats with a Sew i York Reporter on Pertinent Topics. (From the New York Star.) Prominent among the many notables seen : tere and there in the corridors of the Fifth , Lvenue Hotel to-day, discussing finance, j J tocks and politics, was Hon. "William C. ! : )ats, representative of the Third Congres-: 1 ional district of Alabama. After expressing his admiration for the : ' itar, he spoke at lenntli as to the feeling in : J he South relative to President Cleveland's j1 :ourse and the conduct of the administra-1 ; ion, and said: : ! "A general and well defined feeling p.e-1 ( rails throughout the South that President j ' Cleveland is a thoroughly honest and con-! ; identic us man and one whose greatest aim !; c t/\ nrocoTro intnrostc nf t ho nnmtlT ** ! "What do you think the Democratic j National Convention will do in 1SSS?" j queried the reporter. "Well, in answer to that I will say that 1 [ know what the delegates should do: they ' should renominate Cleveland for President i>y acclamation." "Do the Southern people indorse Cleveland's policy throughout?" "As near as I can learm they are all ofj Dne accord as to the Cleveland's course as j the Chief Executive of the nation. A little | feelinsr of opposition was engendered during ! the first year of Cleveland's"administration. j Dvring to his strict conformity to the Civil j Service law, but the thinking people of j the South applaud him for living up to the j words embodied in the Democratic platform" of 18S4, and upon which Cleveland ! stood as the standard bearer of the Demo- j cratic ^arty, promising the people to be i true to the principles expressed, as laid i down and adopted by the convention which ' nominated him.'' ''Then you are a firm -believer in civil j service reform, arc you Congressman j Oates?" "No, sir. Get. Forney and myself voted j against Senator Pendleton's bill when the ; measure was first introduced iD the House. I I believe, sir. that many competent, efn cient and painstaking clerks should be re-1 tained, owing to their knowledge of and ; experience in governmental affairs, but; chiefs of departments and chief clerks, i whose appointments were based wholly on | partisan zeal, should, in the interest of true j reform, be called upon to resign.'' "What do the Southern people think of the excitement occasioned by President I Cleveland's order to return the captured ! flags?" "Well, sir, the Southern people are too busy and too intelligent to talk about the matter. So far as the return of the lliigs is ronf.erned_ the rteonle of the South care not one jet. They look upon the flags as a lot \ of old rubbish that should be burned or buried "with the remnants of the bloody ; shirt. When Charles Sumner advocated i obliterating the names of the battlefields : from the flags out of respect to the feeling j of the people at the South, it was looked j upon by the Republican party as a gracious : and kindly act. Cleveland, feeling that | twenty years of peace and prosperity had | cemented the ties once sundered by grim : war, thought it would be a most conciliatory i act to issue such an order. Adjutant General Drum thought the same thing, but a few political demagagues knowing this ad-! ministration to be invulnerable as regards i honest motives, have to ferret out some j sensational issue that will furnish a breeze to : flap the tail of the ensanguined garment." About Extradition. The committee appointed by the Inter-State Extradition Conference have drafted a bill to be forwarded to the Governor of each State, and presented to Congress -with a memorial for its | adoption, after the State authorites have 1 suggested eimendments that -sill have to i be passed upon by the Commence. The principal provisions of the present draft are as follows: A person arrest-. ed in a State other than that in which the | alleged crime was committed may be j oauea (raring extraainon proceedings, i bnt mnst present himself -within twenty j or thirty days for extradition. At the end of that time the accused shall be discharged if the agent of the State in which the crime was committed be not j ready to receive him. Should the accused j be not able to furnish bail, he shall be i discharged after thirty .days imprison- i ment if the agent is not ready. The agent must have written authority from : the Governor of the State, surrendering | the accused and any official using vio-: lence, threats or undue influence to i compel or induce an alleged, lugitive to j . leave a State to which he had removed ' j himself, shall be guilty of felony, pun-j Lshable with from five to ten years im- j. prisonment at hard labor. A prisoner j \ shall not be arrested upon a civil or j iriminal process until a reasonable time ; . ifter the extradition proceeding that he j: nay have an opportunity to return to !J ihe State from -which he was taken. ' Should the demanding Governor bccome satisfied that the extradition proceedings lave been revoked for private purposes i le may revoke the same and discharge i ;he fugitive. 7 j ] The Greatness of Garrett. : 1 The part that Robert Garrett bears i i :owards the social lifo of Baltimore is ,arge. He is rich, sociable and gener>us. He is a constant contributor to jrivate and public charities, and no worthy relief fund escapes without a ? arge donation from him. Many Phila- t lelphians know what his hospitality is. }n unusual occasions his dinners, are j ? reiy splendid affairs, but it is when he j k mtertains a half dozen friends, or ! _ nore, at his country house that he plays he host in his most genial and captivate** way. No man is better known in Baltimore. It is a curiosity to see him ralk up Charles street. He wears a learning smile and he seems to speak i o every other person he meets. The ther day when he axrived from Europ9 ie started from the Stock Exchange to .is office, two squares distant It took im over two hoars to reach his omce, nd when he did get there he had haken two hundred or three hundred ands and had talked to several hunred persons without giving them the lightest reason why Baltimore and Ohio :ock had jumped up a dozen points the rst day he arrived in Baltimore. As > Mr. Garrett's much-discussed clothes, is sufficient to say that he is an ninently well-dressed man. Ee is iven to the acquirement of the finest tings that money can buy. He has a sw $500,000 house. He has splendid >rses and he has handsome and stylish j othes and plenty oi them, but to call J :m a fop is to do him a great injustice, j may be added that he occasionally ! tempts speech-making, but the friends j ho know him best and who have ! sard his sneeches irive him no en- I laragement in this direction, for he is j . modesi man, and modest men are not ; ways good orators.?Philadelphia < -ess.

I suppose, that the Dona' [sadcra Cousinu is corjiug to New York as con as the season is fairly opened this i ' erioier. If she does, the city will have a sensation, and one of the sort that it ap- t predates. The Chilian mouev queen never ' ices anything by halves. She proposes to . :ake a house, furnish it as few houses in { New York have ever been furnished, and j i it is ia the air that she means to show New j Yorkers how unlimited cash can entertain, i She can teach a lesson or two in the the art' if she trie-. She is a learned professor, <nd money fetches New York every time. The Senora Cousina is something more than the richest woman in the world. She has one of ihe biggest fortunes held by ^i-her sex, possibly the largest on the western continent. She is, unfess the last season cr two has faded her greatly, something of a beauty. She is a great deal of an eccentric, and not a little of a genius. "The Dona Isadcre is not much short of . forty, but she looks younger.

New York, September 23.?The steam- ' ship Alesia, which arrived below last n.rght ] from Marseilles and Xaple.s with 600 pas- < sengers, has Asiatic cholera aboard. Eight:, of her passengers died oil the passage and ; I on 'her arrival at quarantine the health 3 officer found four cases on board. . Later.?The steamer Alesia, -which ar- i' rived to-day with several cases of Asiatic 1i cholera aboard, carried only three cabin J passengers. The disease was confined to ; the crew and the steerage,"where there were oOl people. Three of the crew and three j i steerage passengers died on the voyage. [ Eight, steerage passengers are now sick,: three of whom will probably die before i morning. Two are 'women and sis men. j They are at quarantine hospital, and the \ passengers are detained on HoiMan's j j island, in cottages belonging to the quar-; ; antiae commission. Two of the emigrants ! t were ill when they came aboard at Naples, ! but the ship's doctor thought they had j ! bronchitis. The true nature of the disease: * appeared n few days later. Oiie Lived, the Other Died.1 A woman formerly our slave is now our cook. About eighteen months ago she became sickly ana had a cough and j was confined to bed, and it was thought j that she had consumption. The treatment by physicians failed to give relief. In December, ISSi, a node or knot the' t size of a goose egg formed just above ? the pit of the stomach, which, when i lanced, discharged matter for eight or \ nine months. One of these also formed 1 under her arm, and three on her back, : which discharged matter for a consider- | able time. For six months of this time. she confined to the house, and most of the time in bed. The stomach often re-; fused food, by rejecting what she had; eaten. She used a great deal of meci-! cine, but failed to be cured. I bought j one bottle of your B. B. B. (made in,' Atlanta, Ga.) and gave it to her and she! commenced to improve. I then bought j and gave her three bottles more, and she j continued to improve, and in two j months' time her cough had ceased, her; constitution strengthened, appetite and j digestion good, all discharges ceased, nodes or knots disappeared and she went j ! in -trnrk mnrv-rrtntlv hprilihv svnrl faftariprl i up gveatiy.
