oalarrh, Not LocnI, Bnt Constitntionnl

DR.. bio Lewis, the eminent Boston
physician, in magazine article, says: "A
radical error underlies nearly all medical
treatment of catarrh. It is not not dis
ease of the mans nose; it is disease of the
mani showing itself in the nose-a Local
exhibition of Constitutional trouble"
Therefore, he argues, the use of snuff and
other local applications is wrong, and
while they seem to give temporary relief,
they really do more harm than good.
Other leading authorities agree with DR..
Lewis. Hence, the only proper method of
cure for catarrh is by taking constittl-
tional remedy like Hoods Sarsaparilla,
which, reaching every part of the body
through the blood, docs eliminate all i'm.
puIitics and makes the whole man
healthier. II removes the cause of the
trouble and restores the diseased mem.
brane to proper condition. That this is
the practical result is proven by thousands
of people who have been cured of ca:arrh
by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla.

Tho Saucy Little Republic Actually

LONDON, Nov. 4.-The latest advices
from Valparaiso state that there is no
diminution of the popular luminosity
against Americans, and that no real effort
is being made to bring against Chilians to
Justice for the killing of the American
sailors.
While the American negotiations are
pending the Junta has ordered the CHILEAN
war vessels to be ready for service, and the
forts defending Valparaiso harbor are
being strengthened. These steps are taken
very quietly, as with a view to avoid at
tracing attention.
The Baltimore maintains great vigilance,
and Captain Schley is evidently on the
lookout for treacherous attack.
The opinion is expressed that should the
situation not eliminate before November
18th the new president, probably Admiral
George Mont, may bring matters to a set
Element. Mont is believed to be the best
disposed to Americans of any of the revo-
lutionary leaders.
The correspondent of the London Times
Mt Valparaiso is said to be a writer who
has been noted IN the past for hostility to
the United States. The Times articles con-
tinue to be the subject of unfavorable
comment in London, as calculated to stir
up trouble between the United States and
England.

LONDON, Nov. 5.-The Globe this evening

can only mean that the tariff. has not been

industries will moreover help to convince
the American voter that it must somehow
