CATARRH.
A Man Cured of Catarrh of For
ty Years Standing!
so BAD THAT IT IMPAIRED HIS EYESIGHT.
MADE HIM ALMOST DEAF.
DrOppings in Throat, strangling, Buzzing
in Head, and Fetid Breath.


The Constitutional Catarrh Remedy is the first
article placed before the public that proposed to
cure Catarrh by building up the COnStitttiOT It
struck at the root of the whole difficulty. and
thousands upon thousands of letters have been
received by the proprietors, setting forth the
marvellous cures, and, what is remarkable, curing
not only the Catarrh but all other ailments at the
same time. This is what 1t always does. The
following statement is only sample of what we
are constantly receiving from well known people
to whom you can write, and not to bogus ones.
Catarrh and its attendant evils, cold In head,
hacking cough, incipient consumption, headache
pain in back and loins, dizziness, lsnguiduess
loss OF appetite and general weakness, all leave
together when the COnsti utiOnal Catarrh Rene
Gy is taken as recommended.
LOWELL, MASS, Feb. u. 1874.
Messrs. LITTLEFIELD & COL have been entire

years, and so severely that my eyssight was i'm

ways stopped up. could not breathe freely, often
at night could not sleep, being kept awake by q
dropping in my throat, sometimes so badly as to
almost strsngle me. The discharge from my nose
was fetid and my breath was almost foul; had,
too, continual buzzing in my head, and headache
almost all the time. Dnring forty years l have
Iried almost every mSdicine for Catarrh in the
market, but without receiving any permanent
benefit until used Constitutional Catarrh Rene

lIeved, and used in all six Bottles, and am now
completely cured. My eye-sight is good 1 can

Bile discharges from my nose. no drOppings in my

rect an idea of Paris outdoor life as if he
had lounged for week in metropolis.
The same promenade through the veins
and arteries of the huge leviathan ought
to be taken in the still hours OF the morn
ing. amid the momentary lull so soon to
be awakened by the collision of countless
interests.
1t may be said that at least so per cent.
of the time of The average tourists is frit-
tered away in Europe. Many come with
out the least preparation not knowing what
to see, others see without approaching it,
only what is put down in the guide books.

JAPAN.-An arrival at San Francisco on
the Ist. brought some items uf news. inter
esting t., the American reader. First in
Importance Is the signing of Treaty at
Washington in July last between Japan
and the United States. not vet made pub
lie.
The interference of Japan to protect its
subjects from imposition through labor
contracts -coolilism. An attempt to Sc
cure japanese as wOrkmen and emigrants
to Peru, was frustrated and the vessel
chartered to carry them sailed without
! them.
The first loan that was ever put upon
the market by Japan was offered last MAY
and taken-S12, 500, ,OOO-by the middle of
July. 1t was home loan. This is said
to have been effected in spite of the efforts
of English capitalists.
The decision of the British Court in
Yokohama TO guarantee English merchants
to import opium, has been resisted by the
japanese Government, and the British
Government has yielded the point.
1t is understood the new treaty between
the United States and Japan confers reeip-
rocal commercial advantages, from which
all other nations are excluded except on
condition of accepting the same mutual
obligations.
Each of these items of news are steps
forward-advance in civilization and NOR
ality, and are an index of progress of the
japanese people.

Household Furniture.

Experience tells us that furniture will
be more likely to prove satisfactory if
simple and graceful, rather than elaborate
and extravagant in design. There is no
economy in buying inferior, ill-made ar
TITLES because they are cheap. They will
either get to look shabby or will need
repair in a very short time, and in the
end, will prove the more expensive. All
articles of furniture should, in size, ma
terial and shape, be suited to their posi-
ton and surroundings sand they should
harmonic well with each other. Except
ing in very large rooms, or in conformity
with fixed idea, large patterns, extrava-
giant designs, and striking colors, should
be avoided. Subdued (but not dngy)
colors and small patterns are much safer
than large masses of color, and the
brightness of the room should depend
rather upon the table covers, books, How
ers, and other ornaments, than upon the
color of the carpets and curtains. Large
furniture Is out of place in a small room /;
slight, spare furniture is not suited to a
large room. The designs for carpets and
fioor-cloths should be adapted for hori.
zontal surfaces and for being troddcn on .
In dining-room the patterns and colors
should be rich, deep and warm. In a
drawing-room they should be light and
delicate. When the rooms have a moth
erly aspect, the colors in the dining-roo
should not be too dark or sombre; in the
drawing-room they should not be cold.
Bedrooms should be bright, airy and
CHEEKY. In all the rooms the furniture
should not be too much crowded, and
stiffness should be avoided as much as
possible.

smile Whenever You Can.

Nhen things don't so to suit you,
Aud the world seems upside down,
Don I waste your time in fretting,
But drive away that frown;
SNince life is oft perpleXing,
lis much the wisest plan
To bear all trials bravely,
And smile whenever you can.
Why should you dread tomorrow,
And thus despoil to-day?
For when you borrow trouble,
You always have to pay.
1t is a good old maxim
Which should often be preach he'd:
Don't cross the bridge before you
Until the bridge is reached.
You might be spared much signing,
If you want to keep in mind
The thought that good and evil
Are always here combined,
There must be something wanting
And though you roll in wealth,
You may miss from your casket
The precious jewel-health.
And though you're strong and sturdy,
You may have an empty purse;
And earth has many trials
Which l consider worse
But whether JOY or sorrow
Fill up your mortal span,
Twill make your pathway brighter
To smile whenever you can.

A Great Tenor.

a correspondent of the Hartford Post,
writing from Rome, says concerning the
Easter services
There were services in all the churches,
but when they We're no more than ordi-
nary ones, except, perhaps, in St. Giovanni
Latcrano, where the music was a tritle
finer. In the Church of st. Andrea della
Fratto, the Right Rev Monseignor Capel
delivered sermon in English, and the
Friar Giovanni sang. | do not know
whether the fame of this wonderful tenor
has reached America yet, but he certainly
has the grandest voice | have ever heard.
His name is known everywhere in Rome
and, whenever it is known that he is to
sing in any church, there is a perfect
rush to hear him.
1t is difficult matter to learn where
he is to appear, for they try to keep it
quiet. But during Lent the booksellers,
who post up in their stores the important
daily events, for the benefit of visitors,
from time to time, found out his where
abouts, and gave the public the benefit
of their information. Sometimes it was
right, very often wrong. We were fortu-
nate enough to hear him last Sunday. l
have heard most of the great tenors who
have visited America, but never such a
voice as this fat, ungainly, chubby frar
is possessed of. 1t is sweet and clear, and
of tremendous volume. His range is
marvellous, and the notes B and A are
seemingly as easily within his reach as
an ordinary tone. The Pope asked him
short while ago whether he proposed to
go on the stage or stay in the church.
He replied, "The church."
A regular stipend was assured him, so,
unless you come to Rome you will have
to be satisfied with hearing of him, in
stead of hearing him. But the rush to
hear him is creating quite a scandal, and
the authorities now say that the people
make a concert-room of the church. In
fact, Monseignor Capel, in beginning his
sermon on Sunday last, begged the peo-
pie to remember that the church was no
theatre, but a temple for the worship of
Almighty God. lie had previously told
a friend of mine that the thing was a dis
grace, and that if Giovanni sang he would
not preach. But the matter was patched
up somehow, for he preached an hour
and half, and Giovanni sang fifteen
minutes.
