There is more Catarrh in this section

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great
many years Doctors pronounced it local
disease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with To-
cal treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be consti-
tutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by T. J. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken inter-
nally in doses from 10 drops to tea
spoonful. It acts directly upon the blood
and mucus surface of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
failes to cure Send for circulars and
testimonials. Address,

The church festival at the residence
of j. L. Brown did not materialize to any
considerable extent Tuesday evening;
the weather was stormy. A few were in at
tendance, and the receipts amounted to
about four dollars. The festival was
postponed until Wednesday evening. The
weather that evening was charming, the
moonlight making it practicable to have
the festival on the lawn, without the aid
of artificial lights. A large number were
in attendance. The refreshments were
excellent. Mr.. and Mrs. Brown made all
feel welcome, and the social feature of the
affair was exceedingly pleasant. The re-
ceipts amounted to about twelve dollars.

The Topeka Capital declares there to be
three things in which Kansas is seriously
interested: The development of the max
ing of sugar from sorghum, the establish.
ment OF factories and wholesale business
houses, and the securing of deep harbor
on the gulf of Mexico. Of these three,
that paper is inclined to think the last
by far the most important; because the
time thus saved in sending grain from
Kansas to Liverpool amounts to-fve
days journey on the cars.

this responsible position, and not found
wanting. He made the treasurer's books

relations between the county and any of
its various debtors or creditors could be

rank as man, and justly SO. That he

man who inaugurated the land boom al

pretty much throughout the county. Mr..

land business, is, of course, well qualified
