Catarrh, In its extent and destructive force,
stands next to Consumption, and is closely allied

one to the other is only question OF time. IL is
therefore singular thing that those afflicted with

themselves OF it. A single bottle of any remedy

bring the system under Its influence fully In many
such cases the bones and cartilage Of the nose

of tasting, SO affected AS to be rendered useless,
the uvula so elongated and inhamed as to produce
a constant and distressing cough. The return to
health must necessarily be slow, under the most
favorable circumstances, when SO seriously aillict-

comes to hand, we become more and more satisfied
that there does not exist ofCaarrh that can.

HOW THE RICH SUFFER In HARD TINES.

'Your newspapers make great fuss"
said one of the wealthiest men in New
York to Worlds reporter, "about the
sufferings of the poor man during those
hard times, but don't see that any of
them notice particularly the diabolical dis
tress of the rich man."
The reporter wasn't aware that the rich
suffered at all.
THAT" said he of the wealth, "Is be-
Q use you dom i;nCw anything about it.
Why sir, undergo more actual absolute
torture in an hour than any poor wretch in
this city. If hadn't cent in the world,
I'd have some sympathy, some rest, some
assistance. AS it is, am bounded to
death. I'm despised, beset, annoyed,
condemned, back-bitten, waylaid. The
papers write editorials about me. If go
to church | am told that a camel can get
through the eye Of needle slicker than
can get into heaven. If don't dress my
family in an extravagant manner hear
that am an old skinhint-If do, l am
told that all l think of my money is to
make vulgar show of it. l suppose l
worked as hard as any man for more than
two-thirds Of my life to accumulate for
tune, but believe most people think l
again. In winter like this you've no
idea of the hardships OF the rich. If help
all the people who apply to me, might
as well 60 to the poor-house, and yet all Of
them expect it, and most of them dare
say, are worthy. It's out of the question.
So they curse me l suppose. All the be-
tutions and church organizations have
hntr L as,,x fnd tSxy
committees, runners, clergymen, secreta-
ries. They send me half bushel of let
ters day. They drop upon me in the
most unexpected places. They. get into
my private office. They wait in my Ii
brary before | am up. They sit on my
front steps. They follow me into the
them have their way l shall be paraded
as if l wanted to advertise my charities.
| If don't the press will want to know
| what he has ever done for New York.
The other day reporter came to see
about my will. He said the public would
like to be informed as to the proposed
disposition of my property at my decease.
| suppose if were to get cold in my head
there'd be brigade of them quartered
under my windows. l begin to feel that
rich man is disgrace to the communi-
ty-that somehow 1 have committed .
crime. don't like to look man squarely
in the face for fear his hatred of me will
show itself or he will stop and ask me to
lend him thousand dollars to get his
starving family some food to eat. l tell
you, sir, this winter is awful hard on 8
| rich man. He doesn't even eat his din
ner in peace. How can he when there
are 40. 900 who are dinnerless His mon
ey gets to be reproach to him, and he
feels as if he'd like to give the whole OF
1t away in one lump and try the luxury OF
being poor for awhile.
