CoNsEoUENCEs OF NEGLECT

Those who ndOrse the stupid assertion that
"Catarrh will get we'll Of itself, OF is durable
by shutting or inbaling the nOstrums in common
use will do well to remember that the local dis
ease depends always upon a Preventative eondi-
ton Of the blood.
Medical writer's are won't TO speak Of Catarrh
AS a simple local Inflammation, and both its in
pOrtanCe and rational treatment are either
wholly ignored, or receive but a passing notice
from the general practitioner and thus Catarrb

and settle into a sort Of mental apathy, enCour.

vice Of "a visit 10 the country" "a change OF

life is going down at noon, OF watch its progress

coming; youth and health have faded from lips
and cheek, the light from the eye has gone out
the hands are folded peacefully over the still
heart-they are gone.

CATARRH
AND IT'S EFFECT UPON
THE SYSTEM

Catarrh consists Of Inflammation beginning
behind and little above the veil of the palate,
and extending upward into the nose and air
cavities Of the face. 1t creates perpetual de.
sire to swallow and causes a feeling as If some
thing was sticking in the upper and back part
of the throat As the disease becomes chronic,
the matter concretes into hardened Jumps, the
matter secreted becomes puriform, the breath
is offensive and the voice assumes nasal twang,
while, on rising in the morning, great effort 10
reduired TO clear the head and throat. There is
often feeling of pressure across the lower part
of the forehead, causing headache, dizziness,
and confusion Of thought and loss of memory.
The sense of smell becomes impaired, the
ewes are weak and, as the Inflammation extends
mn the eustaceian tubes into the internal ear
there is partial deafness with throbbiDg, hum
ming or ringing noise in the ear. In sleep the
Catarrhal matter is uncOnsciOusly swallowed,
which in time, deranges the stomach and i'm
pairs digestion causing dyspepsia and multi
plicity of discOrdant symptoms, which are Oiteh
mistaken for other diseases. To the foregoing,
add the fact that every breath Of air drawn into
the lungs is drawn over this diseased surface,
fostering with Catarrhal matter, and who can
DENY the assertion that To neglect Catarrh Is W

cold in the head" which resolves into chronic
Catarrh, from which the subject ieels no alarm,
until, step by step, it reaches the lungs when
ali attempts at cure are little better than blind
experiments.
With every incentive to enjoyment and nse
fulness. there are hSndreds all around us dyHg
in the morning of life, of Consumption, who can
look back six months, year, or longer, as the
case NAV he, to a time when 1t was nothing btt

treated cure was possible, silently and almost
imperceptibly il has transformed the bright
lessness of premature age, as it has drank up
the vitality from the blood and finds Of the
wasted frame, and now, when hope Is dead, ana
the life forces one by one are ebbing away, the
mind turns mournfully backward TO what
what soon must be.

to enter the army, and was
justly promoted for his services.
Since the war he has stead

resents the Union and army
sentiment of Ohio, has made a
good and efficient Governor,
won personal friends by the
thousand because of his SINGER
ity, honesty and urbanity, and
deserves a re election.
Mr.. Pendleton is the reverse
Of this picture, politically con-
sidered: He was against co.
elcive measures to put down
the rebellion; he was not rec
ognized as a friend of the Gov
ernment in the hour of its per.

Vice Preside hey in 1864 he
represented that part of the

not declared the truth,
All those taxes, with a great
hos: of others, were removed
in the years 1865 and 1867.

nue. collected by the United States
from people of this State is only
about Sl2,OOO,O0O u year." '5a'.

to instruct the people, ought to
be. Just turn to page 2S3, of

idea OF disproving a statement
of Gov. Hays, relating to 1868,

you are bad off for an argu-

Leete, apeculiar fitness for the

The WHISKY ,i,as.

The Washington correspon.
of the Cincinnati Chronicle
states the facts which prove
the difference between the
honest Republican Admins
tration and dishonest Demo.
cratic. -'-''
"The books of the Revenue
Bureau show that during the
first six months ending August
81, 1869, he has succeeded in
collecting the tax on forty mil.
lions of gallons OF whisky
while during the entire year
next preceding Mr. Delano's
charge of said Office, the tax
was collected on less than
seven millions OF gallons,l
Again, during the six months
ending June 80, 1859, he has
collected more than was col.
lected during the same months
of 1868, on the same objects of
taxation.
These results have been ef.
fected, not so much by reason
Of any additional efficiency in
the law, but chiefly in the res
form of officers entrusted with
the duty of assessing and col
leetlng the revenue, and the
energy with which the law has
been enforced.
| give the facts, and leave
the reader to make his own
deductions. He can perhaps
see why the public debt has
been so rapidly diminished,
and a hundred millions of sur

other Government on earth
can show such a record Of f.
nancial prosperity" ~
