The Tooth meeting Of the Anthropologi-

mos Club. Mr.. Charles IL. Robinson read a
paper on "Some Iowa Mounds" treating of
the mound-builders of the West. Mr..
James Mooney had a very interesting essay
on the "Sacred Formulas of the Chero-
KEGS" and the Rev. Mr. Eells had as his
subject "Myth Of the Thunder Bird" but
the reading of 1t was postponed Oh account
of the discussion of Mr. Mooney's paper
The Washington critic., 1889-03-20

The statement having been published
that the Government of the Southern Con-
federacy had meditated a union Of the
church and State, Jefferson Davis has
written to Rev. William Jones, secretary
Of the Southern Historical Association, In
which the writer says: "1he story referred
to is not only untrue, but absurd. The
Constitution Of the Confederate States
differed from that of the United States by
having in its preamble recognition of the
Supreme Being, and invoking the favor
and guidance of Almighty God, and in
section o of the first article, II said: Con
gress shall make no law respecting an
establishment Of religion, or prohibiting the
free exercise thereof" The different de-
nominations to which the members of the
Cabinet belonged is also cited to show the
absurdity Of the story.

CATARRH TO CONSUMPTION.

Catarrh in its destructive force stands next to
and undoubtedly leads on TO consumption. It
is therefore singular that those afflicted with
this FEARFUL disease should not make it the OBJ
ject of their lives to rid themselves of 1t. De-
ceptive remedies concocted 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 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 danger
GUS symptoms. The bones and cartilage of the
nose, the organs of hearing, Of seeing and of
tasting so affected to be useless, the uvula so
elongated, the throat so inflamed and irritated
as to produce a constant and distressing cough.
SANFoRDs 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 in curing, safe, economical and
never-failing.

RADICAL CURE, one box CATARRHAL Sol
