Catarrh to Consumption.

Catarrh in its destructive force STANDS next
to and undoubtedly leads on to consumption.
1t is therefore singular that those afflicted with
this fearful disease should not make it the OBJ
jeet of their lives to rid themselves of 1t. De-
ceptive remedies eoncocted by ignorant pre-
tenders to medical knowledge have weakened
the confidence of the great majority of suffer
ers in all advertised remedies. 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 eombated with all our might
In many cases the disease has assumed danger
GUS symptoms. The bones and cartilage of the
nose, the organs of hearing, of seeing and of
tasting so affected as to be useless. the uvula
so elongated, the throat so indamed and irri-
tated as to produce a constant and distressing
cough.
SANFoRD's RADICAL CURE meets every
phase of Catarrh, from a simple head cold to
the most loathsome and destructive stages.
1t is local and constitutional Instant in reliev-
ing, permanent in curing, safe, economical and
never-failing.
Each package contains one bottle of the

AN INSURANCE MIX.


Grave Charges of fArson-Alleged That Par-

Their Own Store.
In the suits of Messrs. Levin & Steinburg
against several insurance companies, to re-
cover insurance on the stock in their dry
goods store, on Fifth avenue, which was
burned out last December, the answers OF
the defendants were filed yesterday. The
companies sued were the Germania Fire
Insurance Company of New York, German
American Insurance Company of Pennsylvania
Boatman's Fire and Marine Insurance of
Pittsburg, and the Birmingham Fire Insurance
Company.
In their answers they claim to be in posses
sion of knowledge learned while investigating
the alleged loss. The plaintiffs claim that the
amount of goods in the store was valued at
81, 436 IS, while the companies assert there was
only $500 worth in the store and it was only
damaged to the extent of $500. Also that they
presented invoices of goods claimed to have
been delivered to them and in the store at the
time of the fire, when no such goods had ever
attempted to induce various merchants to de-
liver them bills of goods which they had never
bought, so that they might exhibit them TO the
insurance companies as evidence of the guam
tity of goods in the store at the time of the hre
In addition, they assert that they are informed
and expect to be able to prove when the case
comes 60 trial, that the plaintiffs willfully set
fire to their own store, and by their own act
caused whatever loss they may have sustained
