How to Get Rid of Catarrh and Dis.
eases of the Respiratory Organs.

Why do people who are sick with nasal
catarrh, throat or lung trouble, 90 to Colo
RADIO? For change of air, and because the
dry air of that region has been found ben
eticial to diseased lungs and air passages.
But to express the truth in another way,
people go to Colorado for the purpose of
prolonged inhalation of a remedial air. One
day residence there would not help. 1t is
the prolonged use of the air that cures. 1t
is well recognized fact that air poisoned
with sewer gas or decaying matter, if
breathed for continuous period will i'm
pregnate the body with disease. Hence
come diphtheria, typhoid fever, etc, etc.
Let man put his pillow over the pipe of
sewer and sleep there for few weeks. Any
one knows that at the end of that time he
would be a sick or a dead man. This proves
that prolonged inhalation of any air has
specific effect on the human system. Rem
edial air for good poisoned air for bad. The
Pillow-lnhaler is an invention that makes
an atmosphere in your room and in your
nose and lungs for eight hours out of the
twenty-four whilst sleeping ordinarily at
night that cures catarrh, bronchitis and
lung troubles. Its results for good and its
power to cure a diseased condition of the
nose and lungs is simply wonderful, and
without any parallel in the history of the
treatment OF this class of diseases. In a
pillow are hidden reservoirs filled with
medicines that throw of a remedial vapor or
air. The sufferer goes to bed in the usual
way, and sleeps upon it. AS he inhaes the
air from it, night after night gradually the
fires of inflammation in his nose or lungs are
soothed, discharges and cough ceases, pain
gives place to ease, and in a short time he is
a well person. The Pillow-Inhaler has been
In existence over six years, and during that
time it has cured persons who were hopeless
and expecting death. Send for explanatory
pamphlet and testimonials. You will find
it will open up to you the way of cure.

- DR.. Asa Phelps, whose death was
chronicled last week, deserves more than a
passing notice. He moved from Berlin in
the year 1884, and for years was the only
resident physician. His services in very
many cases were gratuitous, az there were
more poor people in town at that time than
now. He was ready to go at the call of
duty, at any time of day or night and many
time he has spent the remainder of the
night camped on the floor with his feet TO
the fire. He has had large practice, but
for the last few years has not done any work
on account of advanced age and infirmities
While in practice he never objected to
counsel, and if superseded by others, che
kept the even tenor of his way" never
speaking against the practice of other physi-
clans. He thus secured universal respect
The past few years he has lived with his
youngest son, Allen, at whose home he died.
He was almost ninety-one years old.
Next Sunday being the last in this con-
conference year, the services will consist of
sermon in the forenoon and social meet
ing in the evening. Many are praying that
the present pastor may return and there
would be many sad hearts if we did not ex-
pect him back again. The church has not
gained very many in numbers the past year
but it has grown stronger in spiritual power
and several are now seeking for the " higher
life. - Rev. j. b. Tabor will preach in
the Universalist church next Sunday.
