that there has been considerable increase

10 per cent. between July 1, 1885, and July

CONSTITUTIONAL GATARRH.

No single disease has entailed more suffering or
hastened the breaking up cf the constitution than
Catarrh. The of SMELL of taste, of sight, of
hearing the human voice. the mind-one or more,
and sometimes all, yield to its destructive lnf1u-
ence. The poison it distributes throughout the sys
tenn attacks every vital force, and breaks up the
most robust of constitutions Ignored, because
but little understood, by most physicians, impe
tently assailed by quacks and charlatans, those
suffering from it have little hope to be relieved of
it this side of the grave 1t is time then that the
popular treatment of this terrible disease by
dies within the reach of all passed into hands at
once competent and trustworthy. The new and
hitherto untred method adopted by DR.. Sanford in
the preparation of his Radical Cure has won the
hearty approval of thousands. 1t is instantaneous
in affording relief in all head colds, sneezing, snuff
fing and obstructed breathing, and rapidly re-
moves the most oppressive symptoms, clearing the
head, sweetening the breath, res orng the senses
of smell, taste and hearing, and neutralizng tho
constitutional tendency of the disease towards the
lungs, liver and kidneys.
Sanford Radical Cure consists of one bottle of
the Radical Cure, one box Catarrhal Solvent and
one improved inhaler, neatly wrapped in one pack
age with full directions; price 81.

One of the reasons why Hartford's popu-
lar and efficient mayor would make strong
leader of the Republican ticket is that he has
in both parties in all parts of the State who
warm towards him for his good nature and
his friendliness and who respect him for his
ability, his sturdy integ..ty and his public
spirit. Few of our public men have more
and stauncher friends and few better de-
serve them. His riches and his hono1s have
not had a tendency to elevate him above
"the plain people," He thoroughly believes
in them and is proud of the confidence they
have SHOW Al in him.

Your correspondent overheard con-

PLAUSIBLE excuse for not taking part in
The present campaign. And, as the con-
yersatiou was not addressed to your

violating any confidence in giving the
came to the readers of the Herald. A
marty of gentlemen were cOnverslng upon
The political situation of the country ip
general and Kansas in particular. Head
and shoulders above the others OF the
p-orp stood United States Senator, John
J. Ingalls,. In the group, also, was
prominent Kansas Democrat, and two or
three prominent Republicans. Senator
ingalls, was the speaker on this occasion,
and from his conversation your CORE
epondent quotes:
4Before leaving Washington City,"
said Senator ingalls,, 81 called at the
White House to see the President, and
learn from bis own lips what he meant
by his civil service rules. l said to him:
fMr. President, I am about to leave
Washington for my home; we have an
election in Kansas this fall, and l want
to know whether your civil service rules
are made in good faith, and whether Of
fee holders under your administration
are to be punished for taking an active
part in politics. The President replied,
with apparent earnestness, that he meant
just what he said, and that he would GER
tainly remove every Office holder guilty
OF violating this order, in the event that
he learned the facts of such violation. l
then said to him that 1 would watch
every Democratic Office holder in Kansas,
and that when returned to Washington
next winter I would make a written re-
port to him, in which [ would give the
names of every Democratic Office holder
in the state guilty of taking part in the
coming campaign, together with the facts
connected with such violation.
81 said to the President that, with
out expressing my approval or dis
approval of the civil service rules,
believed in men living up to the pledges
made to the people that elected them to
Office, and that for this reason l should
take an interest in the movements of the
Kansas Office holders under his admins
tration. The President said he would be
glad to have me make such report as 1
had promised, and again assured me that
he meant just what he said, and that he
would promptly remove any one violating
his orders. And" said the Kansas Sena-

"A. B. Jones is selling a medicine for
diarrhna and bowel complaint which is
no doubt the best family medicine ever
introduced in this country. It is not
made to cure every disease, but it is all
the more valuable on that account. It is
known as Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhea Remedy, and it is worth
one hundred times its cost in time of
need.
Animals are often afflicted with a
disease called the mango, the same
disease in human beings is called the
itch, and Is highly contagious. To cure
it mix -four of sulpher with DR.. J. II.
McLean's Volcanic Oil Liniment, battle
it thoroughly and take DR.. j. II. Nc
