The usual treatment of catarrh is very
unsatisfactory, as thousands of despair
ing patients can testify. On this oini
trustworthy medical writer says
proper local treatment is positively nee
cessary to success. but many, if not most
of the remedies in general use by physi.

ing was presided over by Rev. W. 8.

"a Minister'S Vacation-Should he Take
Ones" was generally discussed. most of
the ministers present believing that it is
good policy for every minister to take a
few weeks vacation every summer, not
merely for rest and recreation. but with
a view Of gaining better knowledge of

pairing himself with texts and sermons
foe. the coming year. There were no
papers read nor was any other subject
discussed. The next regular meeting of
the association will be held in November.

Cut Down the Weeds.

The Burlington Gazette says:
Cut down the weedsl In many of the
vacant lots of this city the burdocks and
other noxious weeds grow in such trop-
ical luxurisnce as to rival the Indian
iungles. Sidewalks are fringed with
great coarse weeds, that almost impede
progress, and in many cases leave only a
narrow foot path in the middle of the
walk. However picturesque and rural
such profusion may be. it is hardly con-
venient to wade knee deep through the
rank growth. This condition is not con-
fined to the outlying portions of the city.
but to localities on the principal thor>
oughfares, which can be more definitely
described If desired.
