Ordered to Leave.

The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union at Milwaukee recently received
formal notice from the directors of the
Young Mems Christian Association
that the union could no longer occupy
quarters in the Young Mems Christian
Association building. The notice
says that, having allied them
selves with the Prohibition party,
the women must be treated like
any other political organization, and
are therefore debarred from occupying
quarters in the Young Mems Christian
Association building. This charge grew
out of the action taken at the Chicago
convention, which the local union in
dorsed.

CATARRE.


Home Treatment.
Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due TO the presence of living parasites
in the lining membrane of the nose and
eustachian tubes. Microscopic research.
however, has proved this to be fact. and
the result of this discovery is that simple
remedy has been formulated whereby
Catarrh, Hay Fever and Catarrhal Deafness
are permanently cured in from one to three
simple applications made at home by the
patient once in two Teeks.
" B.-This treatment is not a snuff or an
ointment; both have been discarded by
reputable physicians as injurious. A pamph-
let explaining this new treatment is sent on
receipt of three cents in stamps to pay
postage by A. II. Dixon & Son, cor. of John
