VERY PLAIN TALK,

Showing the Outline Of Route Which is
Often Followed.
When a person with delicate constitu-
tion has a tendency to catarrh or consump-
tion-whether this tendency is inherited or
results from taking cold easily-it is notice
able that that person invariably loses flesh
and loses strength, showing that the nutri-
tion is interfsred with.
In such case the sufferer should at once
be placed under influences that will restore
the defective nutrition and tend to inyigorate
the constitution.
1t is to be remembered in every case the pres
ence of catarrh is an evidence of predisposition
TO consumption, and no matter how slight the
attack may be. it should be treated with the
tinued until all traces of the catarrh have dis
appeared.
If the catarrh is allowed to reach the small
est tubes in the lungs-which condition is in
dicated by the splitting up of q yellow material
then immediate attention to the malady is
demanded, or serious lung trouble will result
Catarrh is, nine times out OF ten, the cause
that produces consumption, and hence no one
can afford to neglect case of catarrh, how
ever slight. 1t is easily cured, if taken In time
and treated regularly and correctly by spe-
cialist. If left to itselfit is rarely cured with
out a change of climate, but with each new
cold it gets more and more troublesome, ex-
until cure becomes difficult and sometimes
impossible.

the other day, "but would not like to have
my name in the paper" Let it be stated that

A WeII-Known Steelworker Makes a
Statement.
HIS TESTIMONY GIVEN IN FULL.

"I am steel worker by trade, and was
brought up in the business from my boy
hood-and 1 think it is to my work that I
can, in part at least, lay the cause Of my

The speaker was Mr.. W. G. Helms, of No.

He is employed at the steel works of Car
negie, Phipps & Co., at Homestead, Pa,

came raw and was all choked up. A dry,
hacking cough set in. There would be a
dropping back of matter into my throat, and
I was all the time hawking and raising
little clots of white phlegm.
'"The trouble hung on this way for some
time without getting much better or worse

tended so far that I realized I was in a Sc
