The Impor,snt Question.

OF all lOathsome diseases Catarrh stands
pre-emlnent. IL renders its victim rs dis.
gushing TO himself ms TO Others. And
the most humillating of all is the conscious
ness that his presence Is offensive to those
around him. II any disease deserves the
name OF universal, IL is this. Dietetlc errors
and the follies which Fashion imposes upon
MS tend TO foster and disseminate IL. To the
pitiful cry of its victims, Is there any cure for
Cdfuyrhf there is but one answer consistent
with Christian reason. God has never seli
one evil into the world for which he has not
sent the remedy. For the greatest of ali
spiritual and moral evils, the Great physi-
clan has prescribed potent and never iaL-
ing remedy. lie has giyen explicit rules for
the treatment and preservation OF the spir-
ltual and moral man, but He Il silent In all
matters relating TO the physical man. Il
would be an understandable .etraction from
His benifcent character to suppose that He
has afflicted the greater portion Of humani-
ty with an lncurable disease. The day of
plaques Is past. The God Of Christianity is
a God Of Love, Of Mercy. His message is
'gooi will 10 men," Inc earth and all con-
tained therein was intended by the great
Designer 70 supply mans wants; and surely
he has no greater wants than remedies for
his infrmitles. Science Is rapidly proving
that the earth IL fitted 10 supply mans Mt

tier. The Kerrsville EoaterSmm in a
late issue has this TO say of him:
''As will be observed, Major Jones has
recently been doing valiant service on
this immediate frontier. Not only has
he been active in this section, but all
along his route he has expelled the
dreaded fear of Indian depredations
from the minds OF our people. And
still some of our west Texas exchanges
continue to howl about there being no
need of them. Suppose they were
Withdrawn from our border for even
one month, what would follow ? In our
opinion there would be continual cry
for protection from every quarter. The
farming and stockraising interests
would fall to the ground, and our citi-
zens would be compelled to seek safety
