TBNTBS? Doesn't strike me as your typical returnable bottle.

Another very cool bottle... Light yellow strap side quart with applied top. Certainly better than a clear one.

The last one for now... "COOK'S MARJORAM CREAM". Found some ads online... If only it worked so well.

"Don't Fail to Try the Following Valuable Remedies !

Cook's Marjoram Cream,

ed Breasts, Sore Nipples, Childrens' Insect Bites, Frosted Feet,
Sores, Swellings, Sprains, Chapped Flesh, Bunions, Neuralgia,
Burns, Rheumatism. All persons suffering from any of the above
named complaints are advised to try this remedy, and our word
for it, they will never regret it. Twenty-five Cents a Bottle.

EBENEZER COOK, Wholesale Druggist.

203 Greenwich Street, New York.

Buy it, Try it, and be Free from Pain. "

A poem they made. Very clever, I like it!

"Read Down Hill and Across.

Cook's Marjoram Cream kills the itch and the sting
Of the bites of blood suckers around on the wing—
Of mosquitoes, black flies, wasps, hornets and bees.
Known as well is it too for the prodding of fleas,
Secure from the bedbug you sleep at your ease.

Most welcome likewise is its action benign
After one has been poisoned by some horrid vine;
Right plenty are these in the country all round,
Just as frequently snakes In your jaunts will be found.
Out of flesh that's envenomed Cook's Marjoram Cream
Removes all the poison and cleanses life's stream.
A case that's rheumatic, relieves right away,
Makes easy sore limbs and stiff joints sans delay.

Clear, beauteous complexions result from its use,
Rest assured it cures freckles that sun rays produce;
Ease it gives to corns, bunions and flesh chapped or hurt,
Athletes too should use it when tired by a spurt;
Make allowance for these lines that are true if they're
curt.

25 cts. a bottle at druggists and depot,
62 Cortlandt Street, New York. "
