Catarrh to CONSUMPTION.

Catarrh in its destructive force stands next
to and undoubtedly leads on to consump-
ton. 1t is therefore singular that those
afflicted with this fearful disease should not
make it the object of their lives to rid them
selves of it. Deceptive remedies concocted
by ignorant pretenderS to medical knowledge
have weakened the confidence of the great
majority of sufferers i'll ell advertised 1eme
dies They become resigned to a life of
misery rather than torture themselves with
doubtful palliativeS.
But this will never do. Catarrh must be
met at every stage and combated with all
our might. In many cases the disease has
assumed dangerous symptoms. The bones
and cartilage of the nose, the organs of hear
ing, of seeing and of tasting SO affected as to
be useless, the uyula so elongated, the throat
so inflamed and irritated as TO produce
constant and distressing cough.
,SANFoRD's RADICAL CURE meets every
phase of Catarrh. from simple head cold to
the most loathsome and destructive stages.
1t is local and constitutional. Instant in
relieving. permanent i'll curing, safe, eco
nomical and neyer-failing.
Each package contains one bottle of the
RADICAL CURE, one box CATARRHAL. SOLVENT

 Some charitable ladies determined to try moral suasion to deter the girls now here from going to their unknown husbands. accompanied them to Castle Garden, where they talked with the six indefinite brides. They werc English girls from Lancashire, ranging in age from l6 to 24. They were daughters of small farmers, and their lusty forms and bright complexions had resulted from plenty of outdoor exercise. They were imperfectly educated, but made a good ap- pearancc by reason of youth, health, neat clothing and decidedly high spirits. In the same company of converts were entire fami- lies from their county. They said that they had listened to the MormsK revivalists' preaching until convinced of its righteous ness, and that they were firmly determined upon seeking happiness in Utah. They had been solemnly promised that they should get husbands there.
