Catarrh, in its extent and destructive force
stands next to Consumption and is closely allied to
one to the other is only question OF time. 1T is
therefore a singular thing that those afflicted with
IL should not make il the object OF their lives TO raj
themselves OF it. A single bottle of any remedy
cannot in the chronic stage, effect cure nor even
bring the system under its influence fully. IN
many such cases the bones and cartilage OF the
nose are eaten away the organs of hearing, of see
ing, and OF tasting affected as to be rendered
useless The uyula so elongated and in1amed as to
produce a constant and distressing cough. The
ieturn to health must necessarily be slow, under
the most favorable circumstances, when so ser-
ousy afflicted but the evidence of Its great val.
ne daily comes to hand, we become more and nor c
satisfied that there does not exist case of Catarfh
that cannot be cured by judicious and persistent
Use of Sauford's Radical Cure for Catarrh. The
relief in every case obtained from the first dose Is
an indication OF what it will do when the sy stem IS

There comes to all, at some time OF life,
Shadows to sadden our hearts,
And all along mid the care and STRIFE,
No joy the world imparts.

When the cloud shows no silver lining,
When no welI-known voice so lopged for ana
dear,
Comes to tell us the sun is stiI shining.
And we travel on, through path of tears,
All alone as it seems with our sorrow,
Still hoping, and wishing thai these sad fears,
Will not lise with us on the morrow.
But harder still, rs we journey below,
To hear the cold words, and the scorn
From lips that uaught bat love should show
But from which the love has gone.
The ones whom we thought could never On Sc
Whose love could neer grow cold
Their looks have grown so very strange
And whose story offfiendshp is told
Oh how much we need as we journey along
The help of each other to cheer us,
And the cheering notes Of some sweet song,
Asor angels towering near us.
Then wait not until these poor hearts Of ours,
Are resting under the sod,
Ere you give to US some OF nice ho"ers'
To help us on to God.
For when we are done with trouble, aud care =
And lay down these bodies oil ours

Whether they re thorns, or flowers.
Whether on that quiet, peaceful grave,
There are flowers of richest hues,
Or whether there is nothing, save
The grass all fresh with dews.

WOmen'S Rights and Women'S Wants

1t has always seemed to us that the title
of a somewhat familiar subject of discus.
sion ought to be changed from "women's
rights" to "women's wants" The ques-
ton is not whether women have a right to
do this, that or the other thing; but
whether they want to do it. If the want
exists, the right is pretty sure to follow.
There is no privilege, social, political or
commercial, which women have shown a
strong and unmistakable desire for that has
not been conceded to them. Do they
want to share in what is called the higher
culture? There is but little difficulty in
their doing SO. Do they want to write
books? The books will be printed and
bought if they are worth reading. Books
written by women are bought in large
quantities. Do they wish to paint pictures
or carve statues? There is no obstruction
to the activity Of their genius in these
specialities. Do they want to work in shop
or factory? There are ample opportunities,
provided they Work we'll. Do they want
recognition as a class by the laws so that
they may hold their separate property
when they marry, free from the charge of
their husbands debts-a favor which is not
shared by men in respect to their wives
debts? The statutes Of almost all the States
have granted them these and other favors.
In respect to the 6nal and extreme right.
the right to vote, many persons-and
among them are persons who object most
strongly to the concession Of the right
believe that if women really wanted the
suffrage it would be given to them without
delay. Y. EUening Post.
