The Benefits Of Life Insurance

were clearly and fully illustrated by the
prompt payment of s167,OOO to widows and
orphans of the Equitable Life Assurance Society
of New York during the month of August, in
amounts ranging from 81 1000 up to $4,000,
distributed among twenty-nine policy-holders
who died during that month. There was q
time when some good people thought it pre-
sumptuous to get their lives insured. They
thought it looked like distrust of Him who
has promised to be the God of the widow and
the fatherless. But as the system has become
thoroughly understood they are presumptuous
and foolish who neglect this provision. Dick
ems, the great novelist, gave as his advice,
"No matter what may be the object of your
solicitude, be assured" The society's agent,
Mr.. Z. McB. Timoney, whose advertisement
appears in another column, will furnish any
person with table of notes and such other in
formation as they may desire.

Observations on the Nature, symytems and
Effects Of Catarrh.
BIZ DE-. HARTLEY, 7s9 TENTH STREET.


Ameng the list of chronic diseases which
affect the human frame eatarrh is the one
most prevalent, most offensive, most pro-
ductiye of discomfort, and most liable 10 q
variety Of dangerous and distressing compli-
cations.
Thousands are annually hastened to q
premature grave from its pernicious effects,
and no doubt thousands are at this moment
slowly perishing under its fatal influence,
ignorant of the cause of their declining health.
1t was, in fact, the destructive influence of this
disease and its alarming prevalence that first
attracted the writer's attention, and g "a with
pardonable pride that he refers to the fact Of
having been the fiist physician who made mis-
disease special study, and originated a sys-
TEN Of treatment calculated to effect radical
and permanent cure.
Catarrb manifests itself By discharge from
the head, varying in its nature in different
cases, and even in the same individual at dif-
ferent times. 1t may be a thin, colorless, ,acrid
fluid, or q glary, starch-like substance; gen.
orally, however, 1t is q thick, purulent, or
muco-purulent matter, either greenish-yellow
or of a deep green tint, occasionally streaked
or lecked with blood. So copious and Often
sive is the discharge in many cases that the
patient feels as though the whole head was in
a state of corruption.
Much of the discharge passes backward into
the throat, or collects as a tough, viscid
phlegm behind and above the soft palate, in
the passage between the throat and the head !,
creating a constant and almost irresistible de-
sire to obtain relief BY "hawking," practice
characteristic of catarrh, aad as embarrassing
to the one affected as it is disagreeable to those
around. Often the phlegm is so tenacious
that the most persistent and exhaustive efforts
fail to dislodge 1t until some food or stimulant
is swallowed.
Again the offensive matter deposits itself in
the nasal cavities in the shape of dry, hard
crusts, which, in some cases, accumulates to
such an extent as to form regular plug, OBJ
structing breathing and producing serious dis
comfort. This condition is indicative of ulcer
alton, which in time may dectroy the bony
structure of the nose, and produce its subse-
quent flattening.
The breath is always tainted, and some
times is so reyoltingly offensive as to render
the sufferer an object of disgust to himself as
well as to others, and cases are occasionally
met with in which the stencil is really over
powering, and sufficiently fetid to poison the
atmosphere of a whole room. Thus person
affected with catarrh lives continually in an
impure atmosphere of his own surrounding,
and inhales a poisonous effluyia with every
breath.

dence, 1872 Tenth street, near Grant Place.

THE IRISH MEDAL.

A meeting of Irish citizens was held at

pose Of completing arrangements for the pres.

supported him, our most sincere thanks for
their successful efforts in inaugurating and
having brought about the friendly interna-
tiODal contests in rifle shooting.
RcSolUed, That it is our earnest wish that
these contests may be of a yearly occurrence,
as we believe that the result will be productive
of much good, inasmuch as it will have a
tendency to cement closer together, and create
a more fraternal feeling between all nations
participating in the same, but most especially
between Ireland and America.
Mr.. Mohan stated that he had been Informed
by Major Leech that his team had been in
vited, together with the other teams 10 be
