from him was nearly in despair about
winning her hand, and was OH the eve
of selling out and leaving the country,
as the girl had refused him three times

Among his cattle he had a young bull
that was always mad with everything
but his master, because he was an es-

bull, was to be the object with which to
satiate his revenge. He would turn him
into the meadow. hide himself, and see
his rival tossed like football. So one

Catarrhal Dangers.

To be freed from the dangers Of suffocation
while lying down; to breath freely, sleep
soundly and undlsturbed; to rise refreshed,
head clear brain active and free from pain or
ache; to know that no poisonous, putrid mat
ter defiles the breath and rots away the deli
cate machinery of smell, taste and hearing; to
feel that the system does not, through its
veins and arteries, suck up the p olson that is
sure to undermine and destroy, is indeed q
blessing beyond all other human enjoyments.
To purchase immunity from such fate should
be the object of all afflicted. But those who
have tried many remedies and physicians de-
spair 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. 1t
is local and constitutional. Instant In reliev
ing, permanent in curing. safe, economical
and never-failng.
SANFoRD's RADICAL CURE consists of one
bottle of the RADICAL CURE, one box of Ca
