GATARRH.
WOULD WILLINGLY HAVE GIVEN 500 FOR
THE RELIEF OBTAIED FROM
THE FIRST DOSE.
From the WeIl-knOvvm Maker OF
YaIe's Mammoth Tent

GESTLEMEN,-I have suffered ten years from the
worst forms Of Acute CatarTh, Coldi in the Head,
that ever afflicted mortal man. Whenever l took
afresh cold it would settle in my head causing the
most violent sneezing, accompanied by excessive
discharges from my eyes and nose. For days and
days my suffering would be intense and finally
settling in my loi1s and bowels, would render my
life miserable for month. Never, during all my
suferings, was able to obtain even temporary re-
lief from any medicine ever tried. Three weeks
ago, while suffering from the worst attack ever
had, I procured a bottle of SANFeRD's RADICAL
CURE FOR CATARRH. The relief from the first dose
was so gratifying that would willingly have CIV
en- $4,000 to obtain it. few bottles completely
cured me. Ny head has since been free from
mucus accumul ations my breathing easy, and not
symptom of trouble about my back and bowels
has presented itself. Its effect in my case has been
truly remarkable. Very respectfully,

Every honest Democrat must feel a

called the Democratic platform. 1t as
serts no State policy; and advocates no

ton of Radicalism, prOpitiatism OF
Greenbackism, and acqulescensc In
repudiation doctrines. The convention
which passed IL voted down an amend
ment 10 increase the efficiency of the
public schools, and an amendment fix
ing a time for the Legislature to take
action on the debt. 1t means a contin-
uance Of the suicidal policy of the past
two years; a policy which has prevent
cd the payment Of interest; allowed
the debt to accumulate at the rate OF
s. 1000 a day; lowered the public NOR
ais; set an example which has beer
aptly followed by dishonest debtors ;
deprecated the value of real estate
kept out immigration and capital; les
sened the opportunities for productive
labor: kept in power and afforded

An Important Decision.

Minister Foster sends to the Depart
ment of State a decision by the Mcxi-
can Supreme Court of considerable
importancs. In 1877 the authorities of
Texas applied to one of the Mexican
States for tS0 %extradation Of two per-
sons charged with murder. The pris-
oners arrested applied to the District
Judge for a writ of hdbedS corpus, which
was granted. Appeal IA taken by
the prosecuting attorney to the Federal
Supreme Court, where the decision of
the District Judge was reversed. The
Court decided that the Mexican consti-
tuition would not be violated by the ex-
tradition of criminals.

The late Democratic Convention at
Nashville arraigncd the Republican
party, National and State, before the
bar of public opinion, AS the author OF
all the misfortuncs which now Cypress
and threaten the people"
We suppose that the Republican
party is responsible then for the fail
ure of the wheat crop, the yellow fc-
yer, the itch and Democratic rule.
Why did not this wise convention tell
who is responsible for the $4,000, OOC
increase in the State debt in the last
eight years? Why is it they didn't
tell who is responsible for all the peo-
pies money that the Democrats lhQye
stole in this State. e..

Joe. Jefferson, while playing
Rip Van Wrinkle at Chicago last
spring, spent a day in fishing and
went to the theatre in the eve
ming very tired. When the eur
tain rose in the. third act it dis
closed Rip in his twenty years
nap, but instead of waking at the
right time Rip kept on sleeping.
The audience grew impatient, the
prompter grew uneasy. Finally
the gallery grew uproarous, and
a voice wanted to know if there
was going to be nineteen years
more of this snoOze business"
Then the prompter tried TO start
the actor, and at last prodded
him with a pin through a trap in
the stage. Rip woke up in a hur-
ry then, with a howl. He had
been fast asleep.
