TRANCE.

PARIS, Nov. 29.-At meeting of Bure
aux of four groups of the Left yesterday,
at which it was decided TO agree upon a
united programmed the pure left and centre
opposed interpelia,ing government, while
advanced and extreme left supported
Deputy Ciemcean, and insisted on the in-
mediate overthrow of the ministry After
an animated discussion. Henri Brisson,
Gam bettaist, and one of the Vice Presl-
dents of the Chamber of Deputies, made
a stirring speech, declaring that 1t would
be illogical and pcriious TO overthrow the
ministry without knowing how to replace
it. He would move that the groups OF
Left try to agree on common programme
and submit it to cabinet. and then ii 1t
was not properly acted upon to vote against
then. This motion was carried by great
majority. The committees OF the four
groups agreed to meet daily until the pro-

PO S @ N

Wei De Meyers Treatise on Catarrh,
explains the following important facts:
/. That Catarrhal Colds become poi-
sonous infection, AT first local, and finally
constitutional.
,. That being Constitutional, the infection is
beyond the reach of mere local remedies.
;. That Impurities in the nostrils, are
necessarily swallowed into the stomach and
inhaled into the lungs, thus poisoning the
Digestive, Respiratory and Genito-urinsry organs.
i. That Catarrhal virus follows the mu-
cous membrane and causes Deafness. Dyspepsia
Chronic Diarrhea, Bronchitis, Leucorrhea
and Consumption.
5. That Smokes, Douches, Inhalations, and
Insolube Saufs. cannot possibly remove in
fectious inhammations from the organs named.
6. That an antidote lor Catarrh must pos
an inocu1ative affinity for, and the quality
OF being absorbed by, the purulent mucous
wherever located.
Based upon these plain theories, DR..
Wei De Meyers Catarrh Cure has proved
infallible. 1t not only re1eaves, it cures
Catarrh at any stage. Home testimony:
