SANFORD'S
RADICAL CURE
For CATARRH
Is UNIVERSALLY RECOMMENDED


We have just received a communication from near
ly every druggist in New England and the West, and
the testimony is universally in favor of SANFoRDS
RADICAL CURE FOR CATARRH. We believe there
never was a remedy so popular wherever known, and
certainly we feel that never more deserving
of praise, Founded upon correct scientific prinei
pies. and calculated by the most accomplished ply
scians to meet the severest forms of Catarrh, the
cures made by it have not only been numerous, but
remarkable as to excite public attention and
the sale to exceed tenfold that of any similar remedy
ever before compounded. While many anxious
to make public their testimony in favor Of the RAD
ICAL CURE, others-and among this number may be
found many of our most respected citizens-dislike
to become publicly Unidentified with SO iloathsome
disease. Hence, in the following case unable
to give the name. but permitted to refer those
who may call upon usIpersonay to him. and to state
the severity and condition of the before and at
ter using the RADICAL CURE and also that the gen.
tleman occupies a responsible office in one of
State institutions. We quote:-
81 would not for the world permit my name to be
used, although have no doubt it would be of bene-
fit to many now suffering as have suffered; but
give you brief statement of my case:-
"For two years have taken bromide OF
pOtassa and bromide of ammonia every
day. Il never passed a single night without
getting up once or twice 10 free my throat
from the matter that had dropped into il
during sleep, and finally cOughed during
ALI this time. Since taking the RADICAL
CURE a have taken no potash or ammo
cut uneasiness or distress; not a particle of
matter has dropped into nay throat during
| sleep and every symptom of a cough has
left me -
| A wonderful result truly, all will say, who know
or realize the extent and severity of this case
The gentleman has had eighteen bottles. This must
satisfy the sceptca that there is great merit in the
RADICAL CURE. Its mode of preparation is new
and original. Ignoring the old practices and RENE
dies, DIR. Sanford selected field, and has DEM
| onstrated his method to be the only proper. and
never failing treatment.

So NEAR AND YET so FAR.-Not
many months ago, in India, gentleman
and wife having taken passage for Eng
land, went on board with their baggage.
Presently the husband discovered that
there was time for him to go ashore and
see man. He went, and when it occurred
to him that it was time to go aboard again,
he hailed boatman and ere long found
himself on board Il large passenger ship.
1t was night. A sleepy steward inquired
the number of his cabin, which he chanced
to remcm Der, as also that his was the up

TO it without disturbing his wife as he
supposed, who slept beneath. But when
dawn broke and the ship we'll on her way,
feminine voice was heard shrieking in
terror, "Steward steward ! there's q
man in nay cabin - The wretched man
was aroused, and the situation explained
to him. He had mistaken the ship
They were under way for Australia, and
his unhappy wife was steamng away to
England, under firm conviction that
he had been robbed and murdere ed by
rufians who frequent the quays. When
he at length arrived in Australia he could
not even there relieve her mind, as the
cable connecting that country with Eu-
rope was not completed, so that about
four months passed before she heard any

THREE STOwAwAYs.-The Messen-
ger du Widi states that n merchant vcs-
sci arrived at Marseiles laden with sugar
from Batavia. While in the act of un-
loading, the workmen suddenly left their
task, and, rushing up to the deck, gasped
out some inarticulate words. Among the
hampers they had found three immense
boa constructors. These reptiles seemed
to wake from a state Of lethargy, and ad-
vanced toward the terrified men, who
had only just time to hoist themselves on
deck and close the matches. The captain
was, of course. compelled to suspend the
operation of unloading, and to look for
the means of getting rid Of these strange
passengers Two pigeons were poisoned
with strychnine and dropped into the
hold. They we're devoured at once, but
only two of the serpents died. The third
reptile has not been seen again, and it is
with the greatest trouble that :he captain
can get men to assist him in unloading
the ship.

SOMEHOW or OTRER.

Life has burden for every ones shoulder,
None may escape from its trouble and care,
Miss it in youth and twill come when we're
older
And fit us as close as the garments we wear.
Sorrow comes into our lives unlimited,
Robbing our heart of its treasure of song,
Lovers grow cold and our friendships arc
slighted,
Yet somehow or othcr we worry along.
Everyday toll is an everyday blessing,
Though poverty's cottage and crust we may
share,
Weak is the back on which burdens are press
ing.
But stout is the heart which is strengthened
by prayer.
Somehow or other the pathway grows brighter
just as we mourn there was none to bofriend,
Hope in the heart makes tho burden seem
lighter,
And somehow or other we got to the end.

DoN'r QuAREEL.--Peoplc talk oflovers'
quarrels rs rather pleasant episode
probably because they nro not quGrrols at
all. 1t is half play, and they know it,
Matrimonial quarrels are another thug.
We doubt seriously il married people
ever truly forgive each other after the
first falling out. They gloss it over, they
kiss and make il up the wound appnr-
emily heals, but only, rs those no rlblo
wounds given in battle do-to break out
again ut some unexpected moment. Tho
man who has sneored and said cruel things
to sensible woman never has her whole
heart again. The woman who has uttered
rcproaches TO II man can never, be taken
TO his bosom with the same tenderness as
before these words were spoken. Tho
| two people who must never quarrel are
husband and wife. One may fall out with
kinsmen, and make up, and be friends IL
| gain Tho tic Of blood is n strong one,
and affection may return after II has flown
away but love, once banished, is dead
| and buried tn ing. Tho heart may achu,
but it is with hopelessness ! II may be
impossible to love any one else, but 1t is
more impossible 20 restore the old idol to
| it, empty niche. For word or two, for
Sharpening of wits, fora momen's self
assertion, two people have often been
made miserable for life. For whatever
there may be before, there are no lovers
quarrels after marriage.
