Facfs Worth Knowing.

In all diseases of the nasal mucous
membrane the remedy used must be non
Irritating. The medical profession has
been slow to learn this. Nothing salts
factory can be accomplished with douches'
snuiis, powders, syringes, astringents' OF
any similar application, because they are
all irritating, do not thoroughly reach the
affected surfaces and should be- abandon
ed as worse than failures. A multitude OF
persons who haye for years borne all the
worry and pain that catarrh can inlet
testify to radical and permanent cures
wrought by Ely's Cream Balm.

"RFFORN" TREASURERS.

The Star-Eyed Goddess is in financial I'M
happiness. Her Treasurer has gone wrong
The authorities in Kentucky have seized 200
barrels of whiskey it is said, the property OF
the defaulting Democratic State Treasurer. So
that most shining light, in theyery State where
tho Star-Eyed Goddess Of Reform had her
blessed abode, seems to have been operating in
whiskey. The temptation was great The
whiskey ring had its headquarters in this neigh
borhood. 1t wanted more money, and he held
money. 1t controlled the trade, and seemed to
control the Government, II outsiders are per-
mittcd to Judge from remarkable rulings Of the
department under which the tax -eyading hold
ers Of whiskey were allowed to export 2 great
quantity OF it, and afterward to bring it back to
this country No doubt the Treasurer Of the
State Of Kentucky feeling himself backed by
the Administration at Washington, was con-
WINGED with comparative ease that II was per-
fectly safe TO use public funds in carrying whis-
key for himself and for other eminent Demo-
cratic personages.
There is curious fatality about the State
Treasures in intensely Democratic States. just
five years ago. the people Of Tennessee were
disguised BY the discovery that State Treas
