CURE OF CATARRI

CATARRlI has always had the unenvable
reputation Of being incurablc, or at most Of be
Ing only temporarily relieved. In the hands OF
the regular physician this Is no doubt the case,
as for want Of time or neglect to study and in
vestigatc diseases Of the nasal cavities and adj
jacent parts he is unable to locate the parts
affected, and usually prescrlbcs Il simple wash
of some kind. No matter what the condition OF
the parts affected may be, If his patient gets no
better under this mode of treatment, Dr.. \. or
b. gives his patient the comfortable assurance
that the disease Is incurablc.
l have proven, in hundreds OF cases, that
Catarh is durable, II properly treated II has
not been for want Of remedies in mpterid medica
that the treatment OF this disease, so prevalent
among US, has fallen IN dlsrepute with the gen
eral practitioner, but for want of knowledge to
properly apply the remedies My system OF
treatment for the cure OF Catarrh Is entirely
original with myself, based on an experience OF
many years practice, making the disease
speciality. So simple that the remedies can be
applied at home, without the least nconveni-
ence to business. Painless and so very effca-
cious that the first application gives relief to
the most distressing symptom, the secretions
OF the mucous are lessened, the breath purified
and every unpleasant symptom removed. and
last of all, permanent cure Is effected.

Legal gentlemen have been noticed
around here lately, and some of our most
prominent citizens are said, to have been
forced to hold interviews with them in con-
junction with the Justice of the Peace.
Since the interviews our druggists haven't
as much liquors, or as much money as they
had before
Miss Annie Gilmore, daughter of our
postmaster is dangerously i'll. Miss An
ME has won very large circle of friends,
by the pleasantness of her disposition, and
excellent character, and we trust that hei
illness may not prove fatal.
We notice that the tone of this communi
ty is very warlike, and many of our young
men are ready if necessary to resent will
their lives the foul insult which has beer
offered to our flag and nation. We ar
glad to see that the government seems u
be preparing for the worst, 1t will be
difficult task we imagine to compensate 10
those fifty lives thus cruelty taken.

A Washington special to New York pa
pers contain the following During all

dent Grant is said to have used the follow
ing words
When the government makes every pre-
paration for an aggressive or defensive po-
Icy, fits out its navy and does everything
to make the army effective up
to the limit of calling for troops,
you can put whatever construction you
please on such activity. If | were to judge
of such movements as civilian, | should
say they were warlikc. | don't remember
of anything of the kind being done in this
country which was not preface to peace or
satisfaction for our offended honor. So far
| believe our history sustains me in this as
sertion. If my message to Congress does
not convey this idea it will be because
forget the DIS in which to express it.
