foretold by the Republican fathers

prophets are not yet tired nor out
of heart, but are procIaiming with
a loud voice that the Mills Tariff
Bill will SO utterly ruin the country
again thatit will be of Mccarthy use
to take the old thing to q hospital.

Catarrhal Dangers,

To be freed from the dangers of suffocation while lying down. to breathe freely, sleep soundly and undisturbed; to rise refreshed. head clear, brain active and free from pain or ache; to know that no poisonous or putrid matter defiles the breath and rots away the delicate machinery of smell, taste and hearing; to feel that the system does not, through it's veins and arteries, suck up the poison that is sure to undermine and destroy is indeed blessing beyond all other human enjoy ments. To purchase immunity from such a fate should be the object of all afflicted. But those who have tried many remedies and physicians despair of relief or cure.
 Sanford's Radical Cure meets every phase of Catarrh, from a simple head cold to the most loathsome and destructive stages. It is local and constitutional. Instant in relieving, permanent in curing, safe, economical and never-failing.
 SaRford's Radical Cure consists of one bottle of the Radical Cure one box of Catarrhal Solvent and one Improved Inhaler, all wrapped in one package, with treatise and directions and sold by all drug gists for S1.
