Mrs. Millions Ride.

When Mrs, Million goes to ride she
travels fort in state,
Her horses, full of fire aud pride, go
prancing from the gate;
b 1t all the beauties of the day she
views with languid eye,
Her flesh in weakness wastes away, her
voice is but sigh.
For Mrs. Million is in an advanced
stage of catarrh, and all the Inquiries
thar wealth can buy fail to give he r
comfort. She envies her rosy waiting
maid, and would give all her riches for
that Young woman's pure breath and
blooming health. Now, if some true
and disinterested friend would advise
Mrs. Million of the wonderful merits of
DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, she would
learn that her case is not past help.
500 reward is offered by the manufac-
facturers for a case of catarrh in the
head which they cannot cure.
