If you suffer from dull, heavy head ache, obstruction of the nasal passages, discharges falling from the head into the throat, sometimes profuse, wa- tery, and acrid, and at others, thick, tenacious, mucous, purulent. bloody and putrid; if the eyes are weak, wa tery and infiamed and there is ring ing in the ears, deafness, hacking or coughing to clear the throat, expecto- ration of offensive matter, together with scabs from ulcers; the voice be- ing changed and having nasal twang :; the breath offensive; smell and taste impaired experience & sensation of dizziness, with mental depression, a hacking cough, and general debility, then you are suffering from chronic nasal catarrh. Only a few of the above named symptoms are likely to be present in any one case at one time, or in one stage of the disease. Thou sands of cases annually, without mani- festing half of the above symptoms, result in consumption, and end in the grave. No disease is so common, more deceptive and dangerous, less under stood or more unnecessarily treated by physicians. The manufacturers of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy offer, in good faith, $500 reward for case of catarrh which they cannot cure. The Remedy is sold by druggists at only 50 cents.

 A GAME FOR TWO.
BY DEMErR1Us A. GALLAGHER.

We were sitting quite near to each other Upon the back porch, she and I, was singing the song that knew best, As the soft Zephyrs bore me sigh. That sigh was a little love token
 That pressed past her coquettish lips And fingered moment to view them From the edge of her pearly teethtips. And then perceived that huge blushes Had chased her dimples away, So stopped down and kissed them away from The face of my dear little May. She started the moment I'd done so,
 And oh! how majestic and grand She looked as she turned and said "Herbert, Will you please, sir, to take'way your hand?' "Oh, yes," explained, "I forgot that
 My arm was encircling your waist; "But, pray, do you think, can fellow
 Release what he loves in such haste?' "You know, sir that taking advantage
 Of one not prepared for surprise Is not quite the thing to indulge in.
 Don't you do so again, advise. 'Should you ever again kiss lady,
 Remember as long as you live, Don't do it until you've arranged to,
 And are sure you'll receive what you give. "For that is Il system of pleasure
 In which both participants share, So don't again aim to defraud me,
 Or your fate will be sad-now. beware! Besides, you will find that my mode is
 The most inexpensive at hand For the market that always is active
 Invariably causes demand"

A Word For The Stage.

Dinah Maria Craik in the Woman's World.
 We have set aside the old supersti- tion that as the church is Gods house (which it is or ought to be), so the theatre must be the house of the devil. Actors and actresses, too, are not what they often, alas used to be. Most of them, especially of the higher ranks, are cultivated gentlemen and gentle women; and many are very good men and good women, virtuous, domestic, with high ideal of their art intelec- tually and morally. So are managers not few. Could not these, the whole some leaven of corrupt lump, com- bine to purify the whole lump? Could they not combine to abhor that which is evil, and cleave to that which is good? Better than all the vetoes of the Lord Chamberlain would be an honest lessee, who had the courage to say Gas one lessee has been heard to say when urged to accept various French plays), "There are two sorts of love-one fair, one foul; the latter shall never enter my theatre." And if in support of this, our leading actors, or better our actresses-favorites of the public, whom managers must need would absolutely refuse to play such a part as Marguerite in "La Dame aux Camellias," and the countless other parts familiar to the public, of which the whole interest consists in the breaking, or attempted breaking, or pardonable or pathetic breaking of the seventh commandment what a change would at once be made in the atmosphere of the stage As great spiritually as that which is soon to be made materially in substituting electric light for gas (" airs from heaven instead of" blasts from he'll "); for too many people con- ing away from moderate play, as out of reeking, noxious theatre where it is acted, is like quitting Gin plain En- glish) a moral hell-a very ingenious, elegant, amusing hell, but nevertheless as black as Avernus, and into which the descent is quite as easy.
 If reformation is to come at all, it must come, believe, from the women.
 Let those actresses-not few, trust who are stainless maidens, faithful wives, good mothers take their stand as apparently Miss Anderson does and refuse to act immoral parts in vicious plays. Let them lead the pub- lie taste, instead of weakly following it; refuse to pamper it's appetite for anything vile; give it strong, pure and wholesome food. I believe it would swallow" the sternest moral ity, the highest poetry, if put before it in an attractive form.

His Words Live.
Youths Companion.

Nearly two thousand years ago little man, contemptibie in appearance, named Paul, was driven by guard of soldiers back to his cell, in one of the great prisons of Rome. He be- longed to 8 poor and despised sect, and, because of his faith, had been scourged and tortured that day before Nero.
 When he should go out from his cell again, the torture would end in death. He had fought the fight, he had finished the course, he had kept the faith.
 He thought that he had found se- cret for which men of all nations had searched since they world began. It was word of life - the hope, the promise beyond the grave.
 But if he had found it, the world about him apparently did not care. His flesh quivered as sorely under the thongs of Nero's lictors, the stones of his prison were as gray and hard, the blue grass flowers in his path smiled as brightly in the sun, as though there were no momentous unspoken secret.
 He wrote a letter in his cell to a young man named Timothy, whom he loved, and in these dying words the hope and meaning of his life spoke plainly.
 A few days latter he died in torture. How, nobody even cared to remember. The insignificant little prisoner may have been devoured by the wild beasts or burned slowly to death, living torch to little Nero's gardens. The same blue grass-flower still lived in the path, smiling up to the sun, and the stones of the prison drowned gray and unchanged. But he was gone.
 To-day the flower blooms no more inside the prison. The prison has vanished. The great stones are dust and have passed thousand times into trees or living flesh. Imperial Rome itself has gone. But the words which the little prisoner wrote that day have lived through the ages, and have quickened countless souls into hope and action.
 There are things in the world which perish and there are things which en- dure. This history may help some girl or boy, in the beginning of life to understand what it is that dies and what it is that shall and must last.

The most refreshing announcement that
has come from across the water lately Is that
OF NJ. DE GIERs touching Russia's attitude
towards Bulgaria. He says that Russia has
washed Der hands Of Bulgaria. and will net

lowing Der own inclinAtions or to prevent
the Bulgarians from cutting each others
threats. II this be true II Will be gratifying

Ella has way Of doing exactly what she de-
clares she has no intention OF doing, aud 1t
IS very probable that NJ. DE GERs's an-
nouncement will be taken cum grdRo sails.
Russia has been the cause OF all the trouble
in Bulgaria, aud there can hardly
be question that but for the
existence Of the triple alliance and the warn
ings given her by Austro- Hungary and Eng

lated the rights Of the Bulgarians under the
Berlin treaty. So far from RuSsia's washing
