The readers of the KENTUcKIAN
will be pleased TO learn that
there is al least one dreaded disease
that science has been able to cure IN
all its stages, and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure Is the only posi-
tive cure now known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being 4 consti-
tutional disease, requires a constitu-
tional treatment. HALLS Catarrh Cure
Is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucus surfaces
Of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation OF the disease, and giving
the patient strength, by building up
the constitution aud assisting nature
In doing tia work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative
powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that Il fails to
cure. Send for list of testimonials.

The weather Is fine and the crops
are growing rapidly since the rain,

plant of rust in the wheat, but it Is
mostly on the blade and will do it
no serious damage unless it should
reach the stalk.
There has been very little tobacco
set this season. But few had their
land ready, and the bugs have made
the plants very scarce. Don't sup
pose there will be more than one
third of crop planted.
