Member Ohio Legislature. 1894 to 1898 1900 to 1902 CLEVELAND, OHIO, JAN. 26. 1901. THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. Minister Wu's solution of "the problem" is practicable. Afro-Americans are not, as a rule, "impudent." No one has ever before hinted that impudence was a race characteristic because it is not. Minister Wu made a mistake as a result of a lack of knowledge of our people. That is all. Hon. W. J. Akers, one of the republican candidates for the mayoralty nomination, is the only one who is close to our people of this city as the result of a sterling friendship of long years' standing that must be taken into consideration. Every Afro-American voter in Cleveland should work and vote for him. Minister Wu Ting Fang did not mean what he said when he told the reporter in his interview that "the Negro was impudent" and that he saw that "in Washington." The intelligence, brains, ability, wealth, culture and refinement of our people at the nation's capital, Mr. Wu does not come in contact with. He had reference to some "impudent" person in service he may have come in contact with. Minister Wu is too bright, observing and able a man to make such mistakes. A little thought will set him right. THE SUPREME COURT DECISION AGAINST AFRO-AMERICANS. The judges of the Supreme court of the nation have pronounced in favor of the separate car law in the south. In doing this they have nullified the constitution upon which is based our general government. Under a sworn oath they have presumed to define the powers and limitations of our federal laws and have virtually abrogated one of our cardinal and fundamental principles. In this they have outraged common justice and have abused their power in abridging the right of citizenship. The authority delegated to this court is to dispense justice in the light of truth and fair dealing. But instead of this they disregarded their high obligation and entered into a cruel and malignant conspiracy to plunder their victim of goods once restored. The separate car law means the humiliation and degradation of the colored American. It means restriction of public liberty and the subordination of one race to another living under equal laws, and to this restriction and subordination the United States Supreme court has given bold sanction. In the midst of our advancing Christian civilization it has challenged the court of Heaven in its righteous dealing and has tampered with a right which no human agency should dare call in question. It has stultified the growing spirit of freedom in America and stigmatized the promises and best aspirations of the new-born century. It has given its veto to Heaven's sublime mandate, "Whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, do ye also unto them," and has thrown defiance in the face of Jehovah. Forgetting the claims of the nation upon the Negro and the claims of the Negro upon the nation, it has betrayed the basest ingratitude to an all-wise God for the favoring blessings which have come down to us through the instrumentality of Negro valor and heroism. No other people on the face of the globe have done so much for the cause of the country and the United States government as the enfranchised Afro-American, and none more than he have been more sorely wronged and oppressed. The truth of this statement may be regarded with little concern, but the services of the colored people in every trying hour of the nation have demonstrated beyond all cavil their incalculable worth as laborers, soldiers and citizens. Their right to liberty and the pursuit of happiness has always been theirs by a decree of nature. What reward then does the Afro-American receive at the hands of his government when he is proscribed and restricted in the exercise of his humblest privileges as a traveling citizen? By what authority must he be boxed up as a caged animal from the moving masses of all nationalities as though he were a breeder of pests and plagues? The perfidy of this crime stands without a parallel among nations and deserves their most unspeakable condemnation. When the Dred Scott decision was announced in the midst of our boasted Christian civilization the world was appalled, and when in the advancing years of a broader and unpretending justice the most august tribunal of any age nullified the civil rights bill, it gave a precedent and interpretation in direct violation of the spirit and intent of the constitution. Sworn to a sacred duty, the judges with a subserviency unmatched, dared not declare the courage of conviction. With fear and trembling they paused in the presence of a solemn duty, and surrendering themselves, the plant tools of a merci- less tyranny, they betrayed the holiest trust ever committed to men. The representatives of the greatest nation on earth and charged with responsibilities grave and momentous, they (with some honorable exception) engaged in the mean and ugly task of degrading a race by nullifying the right of personal liberty, guaranteed under the constitution of our great republic. Looking down from an eminence so lofty and sublime it was only to be expected that the highest court in all Christendom would have rendered their decision upon lines of absolute justice, thus ratifying the great and eternal principle of American jurisprudence as enunciated by the founders of our government, but sharing in that profligacy of feeling so much fostered in the days of slavery, they prostituted liberty and justice in the name of God and American civilization. What right has any court to oppress a fellow man and upon what ground of argument can American Protestantism justify the act of confining black men (simply because they are black) into box cars to themselves and aside from all the rest of mankind? It is impossible to condone the behavior of the court in this act of extreme madness. The better and more progressive element of the nation expected, and had a right to expect, a different verdict than was given. The march of liberty and righteousness is onward, and it only proves the folly of weak and narrow men to plant themselves in the way of truth. In the vast system of evolving means and ends the hand of a predestinating God directs the affairs of men, and it is possible that the scepter of this, like that of other nations, shall become as the wonder of an hour. Recognizing this fact judges will bear in mind the fallibility of human nature. The American nation is sorely sick. No one walks with heavy tread in the chamber of the invalid. Christian charity obligates a measure of generous regard for every human creature. Nothing is useful, nothing is good and nothing is just unless it is honest. Shall our laws be misinterpreted at the peril of such an imputation; shall public integrity be impeached at the behest of an unrelenting sectionalism? Let it be remembered that the most ultra liberty is worthless, where it is to be hampered by vulgar animosities. Hon. W. J. Akers, One of Our Best Friends. At a meeting of representative Afro-Americans, called for the purpose of discussing the availability of the various republican candidates for mayor, held in Case building Wednesday evening, the following temporary officers were elected: Hon. Harry C. Smith, chairman; James R. Snyder, secretary. After an hour's general discussion, in which the merits of the various candidates were thoroughly set forth, it was the consensus of opinion that the Hon. W. J. Akers, one of the best friends of the race in the city or this part of the country for many years, should receive their earnest and undivided support. A motion was unanimously carried indorsing his candidacy and pledging him their active support. Another motion prevailed, unanimously, calling for the appointment of the following committee to notify Mr. Akers of the action of the meeting and to engross a suitable resolution: Hon. Harry C. Smith, Mr. James R. Snyder and Mr. Jacob E. Reed. The committee called upon the gentleman Wednesday evening at the Forest City house, notified him as instructed and presented the following resolution: In view of the fact that the republican primaries are almost at hand and also that among the various candidates, all sterling republicans, we notice the name of the Hon. Wm. J. Akers, and Whereas, In Mr. Akers we recognize a true and tried friend of the race, and a staunch, active and lifelong republican, therefore be it Resolved, That we tender him our earnest and undivided support and pledge to him our greatest activity in his behalf from now until the close of the polls on election day. Rev. W. M. Langford, pastor of Cory M. E. church, does not believe Minister Wu has found the solution of the race question in this country. Intermarriage, which Wu suggested, is not approved by him. "It never was and is not now God's will to make the Negro white," said he. "God made the black face for His glory as well as the white face. I am proud of my African blood and I don't want it changed by intermarriage. "There never has been a race problem solved by intermarriage. If this were tried une 12,000,000 Negroes of America would spoil the color and hair of the 68,000,000 whites. This would never do. "The secret of the intermarriage question is this: The white man does not want his race mixed by the Negro marrying white women. But when it comes to mixing the Negro's race by the addition of the white man's blood—that is all right. But neither is right. The Negro should marry his own women. The white man can have his own. For myself, I am content among my own. "There is one thing the Negro must learn. That is to stand up for the virtue of his own women. The white man will wade through blood up to his knees to protect the virtue of his race, and so must we. "The only solution of the problem of protecting the Negro race against lynching and burning at the stake will be found through a higher Christian civilization—and through men who will stand up for law and order."

They are in Dutch and English, and the signatures of the sachems are rude pictures of various animals. There were 111 deer killed in Vermont during the open season, which ended November 1. Last year 90 were reported killed in the brief ten days' season allowed, and in 1898, when the open season extended throughout October, 130 were killed. BAD FOR FULTON. Charges of a Very Serious and Startling Nature Filed Against Him and Captain Wren. Charges of a most serious and startling nature have been preferred against eight officers of three different organizations of the Ohio National Guard, two of whom are Afro-Americans—Major John C. Fulton, of this city, who runs a saloon, etc., on Central avenue, opposite Sked street, and Dr. William Guy Wren, of Columbus. The charges against them come directly from the adjutant general's department of inspection and VICTORIA IS DEAD. Eternity's Gates Open for England's Beloved Queen. Surrounded by the Members of Her Family the Ruler of the British Empire Passed Away at Her Residence in the Isle of Wight. Cowes, Isle of Wight, Jan. 23.—Queen Victoria is dead and Edward VII reigns. A petrified forest, covering an area of 100 square miles, has existed for centuries in Arizona. Thousands and thousands of petrified logs strew the ground, and represent beautiful shades of pink, purple, red, grey, blue and yellow. One of the stone trees spans a gulf 40 feet wide. One of the sights in Washington these days in Mme. Wu, wife of the Chinese minister, as she speeds along in her gasoline auto. She has almost abandoned her carriage, the colored driver having been converted into an engineer. My Chung, her secretary, a graduate of Yale, delivers madame's cards. When American armies were in Cuba the island was almost depleted of cattle, a vast number of the animals having been killed for food. Now the ranchmen and farmers are busy stocking up again and have made heavy drafts on Florida, which, as a consequence, has about been stripped of its better grades of cattle. The greatest depth at which mining operations are carried on in Great Britain is 3,500 feet-at the Pendleton colliery. In the Lake Superior district this depth has been greatly exceeded, the Calumet and Hecla copper mine having a depth of 4,900 feet. At Mons, in Belgium, a colliery is being worked at a depth of nearly 4,000 feet. The national airs of great countries are short, while those of little countries are long. "God Save the Queen" is 14 bars, the Russian hymn is 16 bars and "Hail Columbia" has 28 bars. Siam's national hymn has 76 bars and that of Uruguay 70, Chile 46, and so on. San Marino has the longest national hymn, except China, which is so long that people take half a day off to listen to it. An idea of the great increase of the cost of diamonds imparted by the labor of polishing and mounting, as well as by the profits of traders, may be obtained by comparing their price at the mines in South Africa with the prices in the jewelry shops. A diamond weighing one carat, mounted in a ring, may cost the buyer $100 or more, but at Kimberley the average value of diamonds is only about $6.25 per carat. The seals of office, which half a dozen of English rulers recently surrendered to or received from the queen, are small metal stamps in velvet cases. They are mere emblems, never used unless the handing of them by the queen to new ministers, and the return of them to her majesty at the end of office, may be called used. It is said that frequently ministers do not see their seals from the day of receiving to the time of relinquishing them. The citizens of the village of Sing Sing are to take action at a public meeting in regard to petitioning the legislature to change its present name of Sing Sing to that of Ossining. Ossining is the name of the township in which Sing Sing is situated. Both names are of Indian origin, Sing Sing being taken from the name of a tribe of Mohegan Indians known as "Sint-Sinchs," who lived in the early part of the seventeenth century. The census of 1900 shows that only two classes of American cities have made especial progress—those on the inland lakes and those possessing great and diversified manufacturing enterprises. The river cities are growing more slowly; the coast cities south of Norfolk are making little progress; but between that point and Portland, Me., they are attracting large populations. The railroad cities, especially those of comparatively high altitudes, are also making considerable progress. Most of the big liners that carry the mails now have floating post offices on board, where all letters and postal packets are dealt with while the vessel is plowing her way through the waves. The sorters have by no means an easy time on board, for they are often at work for 12 hours a day during the entire voyage. One sorter on the Kaiser Wilhelm stated the other day that during five months an average of 58,368 letters, 220 sacks of papers, and 847 registered articles were handled by four men or an individual average of 14,592 letters, 50 odd sacks of papers and 212 registered articles.

Revels died suddenly while addressing his congregation from the pulpit Jan. 17. He was once United States senator from Mississippi, the first Afro-American to sit in that august body. Rev. Revels was born in 1822. BAD FOR FULTON. Charges of a Very Serious and Startling Nature Filed Against Him and Captain Wren. Charges of a most serious and startling nature have been preferred against eight officers of three different organizations of the Ohio National Guard, two of whom are Afro-Americans—Major John C. Fulton, of this city, who runs a saloon, etc., on Central avenue, opposite Sked street, and Dr. William Guy Wren, of Columbus. The charges against them come directly from the adjutant general's department of inspection and are made by Col. C. S. Ames, inspector on the staff of Maj. Gen. Dick. Col. Ames inspected last summer's camp of the battalion at Chagrin Falls. Maj. Fulton, of the Ninth battalion, is charged with "misapplying requests for transportation for the use of soldiers upon official business to unauthorized travel made by himself and officers, thereby involving the state in an indebtedness of $57.06." He is further held responsible for "permitting, countenancing and authorizing Capt. Wren to openly conduct a booth for the sale of intoxicants, to the utter neglect of his duties as a medical officer and to the detriment of the sick soldiers of his command." Col. C. B. Adams wrote to Maj. Fulton Dec. 27, 1900, asking him to remit the value of the transportation, but he failed to remit, it is said. Capt. Wren, of the same organization, is charged with selling liquor without a license during the battalion's emcampment near Chagrin Falls last August in violation of the state law. He is also charged with neglect of duty, both in failing to perform his official duties, with having turned over the management of the hospital to the hospital steward, and in neglecting to keep any report of the sick of the command, even after being ordered to do so by Col. Ames. The witnesses in the two cases are Capts. W. S. Thomas, W. F. Ellicott and H. C. Gilbert, Lieut. A. M. Coleman and Corporal W. H. Coston. The papers in the case have been referred by Gov. Nash to the judge advocate general. The following is among the charges and specifications against Col. Charles X. Zimmerman, Fifth regiment infantry, O. N. G.: "That Charles X. Zimmerman, colonel Fifth regimeh, infantry, did unlawfully include and muster as soldiers thereof the following persons: "Charles Harvey, Joe Simmons, Washington Raglin, David Asby, William Johnson, Archie King, Joe Smith, — Boyd, — Baxter, William Wilson and Johnson Terrell, known to him to be not soldiers but civilians. This at Minerva Park, O." The above looks very much like the beginning of the end of Fulton's military career. What effect it will have upon his saloon, etc., remains to be seen. DOINGS OF THE RACE. John G. Fee, founder of the mixed school at Berea, Ky., died recently from injuries received in a fall. He was 84 years old, but had continued in active control of the institution until a short time ago. His school matriculated this year 712 students, of whom 350 were Afro-Americans. Charles E. Conick, jr., of Yonkers, N. Y., has been appointed a deputy sheriff of Westchester county. Mr. Conick is also private secretary to the surrogate of Westchester county, and an officer of the surrogate's court. William E. Tyler, of Columbus, sergeant major of the Forty-ninth U. S. V., now in the Philippines, has been commissioned a lieutenant. He was in the hospital corps of the Ninth Ohio; then battalion; joined the Forty-ninth regiment at Jefferson Barracks, Mo.; and sailed from San Francisco a year ago Thanksgiving. The chief statistician in charge of agriculture of the twelfth census desires to show the progress and status of the American Negro in agriculture and its allied pursuits and is now making an exhaustive investigation of the same. In addition to the data obtained, he has designated William T. Ferguson, an Afro-American clerk, to make additional inquiries along this line. Owing to the disapproval of the legislature of his interior policy the president of Liberia, W. D. Coleman, has resigned his office and G. W. Gibson, the secretary of state, has been elected president by the legislature. According to the record kept by the Chicago Tribune the number of lynchings in the United States in 1900 was 115, which is 8 more than in 1899. Of these, 107 occurred in the south and 8 in the north; 107 were of Negroes and 8 were of white men. The legal executions in the country during the year were only four more than the number of lynchings, or 119. The steady increase in mob murders is convincing proof that lynching does not tend to stop crime. Gem City Notes. Dayton, O.—Rev.

VICTORIA IS DEAD. VICTORIA IS DEAD. Eternity's Gates Open for England's Beloved Queen. Surrounded by the Members of Her Family the Ruler of the British Empire Passed Away at Her Residence in the Isle of Wight. Cowes, Isle of Wight, Jan. 23.—Queen Victoria is dead and Edward VII reigns. The end of this career, never equalled by any woman in the world's history, came in a room in Osborne house. This most respected of all women, living or dead, lay in a QUEEN VICTORIA. great four-posted bed and made a shrunken atom whose aged face and figure were a cruel mockery of the fair girl who in 1837 began to rule over England. Around her were gathered almost every descendant of her line. Well within view of her dying eyes there hung a portrait of the Prince Consort. It was he who designed the room and every part of the castle. In scarcely audible words the white-haired bishop of Winchester prayed beside her. With bowed heads the ruler of the German empire and the man who is now king of England, the woman who has succeeded to the title of queen, the princes and princesses and those of less than royal designation listened to the bishop's prayer. At exactly 6:30 p. m. Tuesday Sir James Reid held up his hand and people in the room knew that England had lost her queen. [Illustration of a man with a long beard and a crown of stars on his head.] KING EDWARD VII. [Known for Many Years as the Prince of Wale+] The queen passed away quite pentefully. She suffered no pain. peacefully. She suffered no pain. The wheels of the world were jarred when the announcement came; but in this palace at Osborne everything pursued the usual course. Down in the kitchen they were cooking a huge dinner for an assemblage, the like of which has seldom been known in England, and the dinner party acted as if nothing unusual had happened. The body will be taken to Windsor on Saturday. The coffin arrived last evening from London. The queen is said to have bid farewell, in a feeble monosyllable to her family, assembled at her bedside at mid-day. She first recognized the Prince of Wales, to whom she spoke a few words of great moment; then Emperor William and the others present filed past and heard a whispered good-bye. London, Jan. 23.—Everywhere last night the one topic of conversation was what would happen under the new regime. Not until Queen Victoria has been laid to rest beside the Prince Consort at Frogmore will the theaters or music halls reopen. Moreover, business will come to a practical standstill. The music in all the hotels and public places has ceased. Americans who have passed through great national calamities may recall the crepe draped buildings and the national hush, but they can ill conceive, since the death of Lincoln, any such expression of gloom as that which has fallen upon the United Kingdom. London, Jan. 24.—The king-emperor entered his capital Wednesday and proceeded to Marlborough house. At a meeting of the privy council the king took the title of Edward VII. of England and emperor of India. The house of lords and the house of commons assembled at 4 o'clock and took the oath of allegiance to the new sovereign. The king assumed the title of Edward VII. at the express wish of his mother. McKinley's Message to Edward VII. Washington, Jan. 23.—President McKinley has sent the following message of condolence to King Edward VII: "I have received with profound sorrow the lamentable tidings of the death of her majesty, the queen. Allow me, sir, to offer my sincere sympathy and that of the American people in your personal bereavement and in the loss Great Britain has suffered in the death of its venerable and illustrious sovereign, whose noble life and beneficent influence promoted the peace and won the affection of the world." Venezuelans Burn an English-Boat New York, Jan. 23.—A dispatch to the Herald from Port of Spain, Trinidad, says: Persons who have arrived here from the mainland of Venezuela report that the Venezuelan gunboat Miranda burned the sloop Maria Teresa, owned by a subject of Great Britain. Elected Two Senators St. Paul, Minn., Jan. 23.—United States Senator Knute Nelson was yesterday re-elected for a term of six years. Moses E. Clapp was chosen to succeed the late Cushman K.

"My friends," said the condemned as he stepped forward for a few last words before the noose was adjusted, "I ain't no speechmaker, and I ain't got much to say. I've stole horses and drunk whisky and played keerds and bin a tuff man, and if I'd lived a year longer I should probably hyb bin sent to congress. Thank the Lord that I've escaped sich a fate and kin still look you all in the face, and now, Jim, you kin go on with the hangin' and be durned to you."—Washington Post. A Tailor's Experience. Mr. J. Holliday, who was at one time a cutter for Mr. Bell, merchant tailor of Fourth & Main Streets, Cincinnati, Ohio, wrote: "Palmer's Lotion has cured me of Granulated Sore Eyelids of several years' standing, after having been treated in vain by one of the best eye-surgeons in the city, and after spending in other ways large sums of money. The first application gave me immediate relief." This wonderful healer and beautifier should be kept in every home.

A recent purchase of a two-dollar palm, sickly and frail, carried in its train a demand for a seven-dollar jardiniere and a three-dollar taburette. The fire must now be kept up nights for it, and every time the owner's husband passes the palm he shakes a fist at it.—Atchison Globe. Who are injured by the use of coffee.

Physicians recommend Kemp's Balsam as a remedy for patients afflicted with the grippe, as it is especially adapted for the throat and lungs. Do not wait for the first symptoms of the disease, but get a bottle today and keep it on hand for use the moment it is needed. If neglected the grippe has a tendency to bring on pneumonia.

Excellent Geographical Exhibit at Paris Largely Due to Union Pacific. The Passenger Department of the Union Pacific Railway is in receipt of a letter from Superintendent C. G. Pearse inviting it to share in the honors bestowed upon the Omaha public schools at the Paris exposition. As is well known, the Omaha schools were awarded a gold medal for the excellence of the showing made by their methods of teaching geography. The most important part of the exhibit consisted of a set of illustrated publications and maps showing the sources from which geographical material and information are obtained. Superintendent Pearse acknowledges that great credit is due to the Union Pacific Passenger Department, which furnished many of the publications and maps for the Paris exhibit.—Omaha "Bee," Dec. 11th, 1900.

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS. What suffering frequently results from a mother's ignorance; or more frequently from a mother's neglect to properly instruct her daughter! Tradition says "woman must suffer," and young women are so taught. There is a little truth and a great deal of exaggeration in this. If a young woman suffers severely she needs treatment, and her mother should see that she gets it. Many mothers hesitate to take their daughters to a physician for examination; but no mother need hesitate to write freely about her daughter or herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure the most efficient advice without charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is Lynn. Mass. MISS PYALZGRAF Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South Byron, Wis., mother of the young lady whose portrait we here publish, wrote Mrs. Pinkham in January, 1899, saying her daughter had suffered for two years with irregular menstruation—had headache all the time, and pain in her side, feet swell, and was generally miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly replied with advice, and under date of March, 1899, the mother writes again that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cured her daughter of all pains and irregularity. Nothing in the world equals Mrs. Pinkham's great medicine for regulating woman's peculiar monthly troubles. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JANUARY 26, 1901. How's This?

SHE DECLINED. Gave the Suitor to Understand That She Was Not in the Patching Business. Few American youth have careers made for them. Those who deplore this fact and shun the stings of self-effort may find tonic in the reply of a western girl to an offer of marriage, says Youth's Companion. A young man of more book-learning than force of character lost the young wife who had toiled to support him, returned to his native town for consolation, and found it. Some months later she, too, passed away, and the sed youth soon appealed to a well-known clergyman for assistance in finding a helpmate. The minister introduced him to a western girl of health and energy, who the next day received a plaintive note from the widower. He declared that the Lord had made great inroads upon his marital affections, and it now seemed to be His will that she should repair the breaches of his life. The reply, which the clergyman keeps today as one of the choicest specimens of a varied collection, reads simply: Casey's Case. A Canadian gentleman, named Casey, was appointed to a government place which technically had to be occupied by a lawyer, which Mr. Casey was not. The benches of the Law society, however, undertook to deviate the technicality, and appointed one of their number to examine him as to his knowledge of the law. "Well, Casey," said the examiner, "what do you know about the law, anyway?" "Well, to tell the truth," said Casey, modestly, "I don't know a single thing." "I have examined Mr. Casey as to his knowledge of the law," the examiner stated in his affidavit, "and to the best of my knowledge and belief he answered all the questions entirely correctly."—Law Notes. One Coming. "Could you tell me the meaning of the word 'cataclysm?'" he asked of the street car passenger who was folding up his newspaper.

His Amended Complaint.—Porter Ashe, a lawyer of San Francisco, had a client who wanted a divorce from his spouse. By way of cause, he complained that his wife made a practice of throwing things at his dog. "You can't get a divorce on that," explained Ashe. "The worst of it is," complained the husband, "every time she throws at the dog she hits me."—San Francisco Wave. Johnny—"Pa, doesn't a man sometimes speak so rapidly that the stenographer can't follow him and say so many wonderful things that they are lost in admiration of his eloquence?"

Johnny—"I notice that when you make a speech the papers always say: 'Mr, Breeze also spoke.'"—Boston Transcript.

For 23 months I could not walk a step, and I never expected to walk or work again. I was completely helpless and suffered the most horrible agony. "No man in these parts ever suffered as I did. I took everything that I ever heard of, but never found anything that did me the slightest good until I began the use of Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. "And now comes the most wonderful part of all. In a short time this splendid medicine made me completely well. It is the best remedy I ever saw or heard of, for it raised me from a condition of utter helplessness and constant agony to perfect health. It saved my ability to work which was entirely gone. I am now entirely well and strong, and I owe my health and my life to Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. I advise everybody to use it." that dreadful fiend that threatens the life of rich and poor, can attack and kill only those whose bowels are not kept thoroughly cleaned out, purified and disinfected the year round.
