has said that he paid ScHVRz 81, 800 for re-

A short time ago Mr.. SCHURz would have

The lrnportant question.

Of all loathsomed diseases Catarrh stands pre-eminent. 1t renders the victim as disgusting to himself as to others. And the most humiliating of all is the consci. Ousness that his presence is offensive to thosesaFound him. If any disease de- serves thes name of universal, it ts this. Dietie errors and the follies which Fash ion imposes upon as tend to foster and disseminate it. To the pitiful cry of it's victims, $ there Gsay cure for Catd.srh 1? There Id but one answer consistent with Christian reason. God has never sent one evil into the world for which he has not sent the remedy. Forthe greatest of 0f aaLspiritual and moral evils, the Great Physician has prescribed potent and never failing remedy. He has given ex- plicit rules for the treatment and preser- vatiou of the spiritual and moral man. but AP is silent in all saatters relating to the physical nan. It would be an un- warrantable detraction from his benefi. Ohafacksr to Impose that He rhas afnicted the greater portion of humanity with sAR ineurable disease. The. day, of plagaesaiS past. The God of of Chris. tianity h AsG0d Of Love, of Mercy, His mesaaga ia ''good will to all men, s, The earth and all contained therein was 1ntended by the great Designer to supply .1akn's wants; and surely he has no greater wants than remedies for his indrmities. Science is rapidly proving that-the earth is fitted to supply mans uttsfmOst need. New medicinal plants are. e.ccnstantly being discovered and new properiies developed from those already known For Catarrh. the most potent remedy yet discovered is Dr. Sage's Ga arrk Remedy. Its efficacy has been test cd fn many cases with uniform success. Cases that had been repeatedly pronounc- ed inoarable, readily yielded to it. In confirm6d of obstinate cases, Dr. Pierce's
 Golden Medical Discovery should be ta- ken in connection with the use of the ca. tarrh Remedy. Full particulars in Pierce's Memorandum Books. They given away by druggists. s l.
