Something Ahou, C,,,,,h

A great many people are afflicted with Ca,
tarrh who do not know what ails them; and a
great many more continue sufferers who
might be cured.
Thickening of the membrane which lines the
nasal passages, thus making breathing diff
cult; discharge from the nostrils, more or
less copiOuS, watery or thick, according to the
stage of the disease; a sense of fuilness in the
head; constant inclination to spit; and, in
advanced cases, dropping OF intensely dis
gushing matter into the throat, are few of the
prominent symptoms of Catarrh.
Deafness, inf1amed eyes, neuralgia paiRS, sore
throat and loss of sense of smell, are very
often caused by Catarrh.
All these troubles are cured by Piso's Rene.
dy for Catarrh, Relief is had immed lately
after beginning its use, but it is important that
il be continued without intermission until the
catarrhal virus is expelled from the system
and healthy secretions replace the diseased
action of the mucous membrane. Manifestly
it is unreasonable to expect cure in short
time Of a disease that has been progressing for
months Eyears.
This question of time is provided for in the
putting up of Piso's Remedy for Catarrh. 1t is
so concentrated that very small dose Is
directed. me quantity in one package is suf-
dcient for long If, atment, consequently tbs
expense is a mere trifie, and there is no excuse
Tor neglect nor reason for it but fOrgetfulneSs.
A cold in the head is relieved by an applica-
cation of PisO's Remedy for Catarrh. The
comfort to be got from it in this way is worth
many times the cost.
The following letters are specimens Of those
received every day, testifying to the worth OF
Piso's Remedy for Catarrh:

ChIoroform sninsrs.

These few facts have. learned from a
adruggist who in a lifetime has known
many victims. He says that the faith OF
the morphine slave, however, is not more
shocking than that Of the confirmed taker
Of chloroform. The taste for this anes-
thetic Is becoming as great as that for
morphine. Dissipation and nervous ten
sion both produce sleepless nights. To
WOO sleep ohloroform is used. Hundreds

We arrived at Shiloh in time for me to
be detailed to help bury the dead. That
is duty In conn ection with army work
seldom described The mind dislikes to
dwell upon 1t. The killing of the man is
an exciting work. There is some excite
ment even in being in line with shot and
bullets-in seeing who gets hit-in feeling
that you are yet whole-but there Is no
redeeming feature in going out to the field
of the dead and gathering the men like
sheaves In haryest-field and arranging
them In trench and covering them with
earth. There is no other form OF death
30 sickening as that of a well and hearty
man killed by the accidents OF battle.

ing the Shiloh dead. wish could shut
