The Peerless Gloss Starch is far superior to all
other Stsrches for family in dressing Linens,
laces and all fine fabrics, it produces beautiful
soft silken gloss, lasting and preferable to

stI find the samples received from you OF your
Peerless Gloss Starch to be OF the very finest quail

Catarrhal
pOIS ON

Wei De Meyers Treatise on Catarrh,
explains the following important facts:
1. That Catarrhal Colds become poi
sonous infection, az first local, and finally
constitutional.
2. That, being Constitutional. the infection is
beyond the reach of mere local remedies.
s. That Impurities in the nostrils, are
necessarily swallowed into the stomach and
inhaled into the lungs, thus poisoning the
Digestive, Respiratory and Genito-urinary organs
4. That Catarrhal virus follows The mu-
cous membrane and causes Deafness. Dyspepsia, ,
Chronic Diarrhea, Bronchitis, Leucorrhea
and Consumption.
5. That Smokes, Douches, Inhalations, and
Insoluble Snuffs cannot possibly remove in
fectious fnf1ammations from the organs named.
8. That an antidote ior Cstarrh must pos
inocuIative 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, 1t cures
Caaarrh at any stage. Home testimony:

Lent begins at so early date this year
that the votaries OF pleasure, who also are
partial to church observances, are COM
planning in anticipation OF the day when
they must lay aside the little follies and
pattonise the shrine. An exchange raises
its voice TO this strain; awe have had no
winter to speak OF, and seasonable sports
and onjoyments have been denied. And
yetLent is approaching with rapid strides,
and society anticipates its season OF self
denial, without being stated with the in.
dulgencss Of the flesh, Ry the time win
ter gets down to solid honest work the
churches will be calling their votaries to
eschew the vanities Of this wicked world
and substitute sackcloth for satin, fasting
ior iash,on, and meekness for meat. The
gay and cheerful will be Knocked by the
arrival OF cold weather Just when the
pleasures Of such weather are forbidden,
and the pious person, who Is accustomed
10 fast upon oysters and fresh fish, will
find the rivers frozen and himself COM
PEELED to chew the salt cod OF aflliction
and MUNICH the pungent mackerel OF re.
pentance to save his soul alive. This does
not seem TO be fair. The yeriest sinner can
fast without discrimination, and to his
body's benefit, Il not his SOULS, when So
tiated BY the induIgences OF the gay sea-
son. But to begin Lent before the winter
has fairly set in, when oysters are liable
to be scarce and high, and fresh fish
cannot he caught, is to put the mild and
moderate isster, the p6nitent child Of
fashion, at decided disadvantage. He can
neither fool himself nor anybody else, as
heretofore, by making clean the outside OF
the platter while within Il 10 iuil Of
delicious hiValyes and dainty fish. Under
these CIRCUMSTANCES society will have to
postpone Lent, or else there will not be
that apparently general though not gem
uine observance Of It that has here
loioro chhargcterized that portion Of the
year,
