Ut is.exceedingly annoying, undoubted-

Is very unpleasant, very little ability is
required to produce it. A little paper

deal of malice are all that are needed,

from Catarrh in the Head. Those
who don't have it suffer from those
who do. It's q disease you can't
keep to yourself.
Here are some of the symptoms :,
Headache, obstruction of nose, dis
charges falling into throat, some-
times profuse, watery, and acrid,
at others, thick, tenacious, mucous,
purulent, bloody, putrid, and often
sive; eyes weak, ringing in ears,
deafness offensive breath; smell
and taste impaired, and general de-
bility. But only few Of these
likely to be present at once.
The cure for it-for Catarrh it
self, and all the troubles that como
from ia perfect and permanent
cure, is DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.
The worst cases yield to its mild,
soothing, cleansing and healing
properties. A record of 25 years
has proved that to its proprietors
and they're willing to prove it:
to you.
They do it in this way: IF they
can't cure your Catarrh, no matter
how bad your case, or of how long
standing, they'll pay you $500 in
cash. Can you have better proof Of
the healing power of q medicine?

dred acres of his farm to alfalfa next

Washington Post: Wheat in this
county that has been threshed is yield
ing from twenty to thirty bushels per

the market.
Newton Kansan: r. Harrison, the
big farmer southeast of this city, had
800 acres of wheat that averaged twen-
ty-two bushels. He has several other
fields to thresh which he thinks will
yield fully as we'll, if not better.
Anthony Republican,: L. D. Brand
says his corn planted on this years wheat
ground is now waist high ana growing
at the rate of three inches every twenty
four hours. Never saw corn grow so
fast in his life-it makes the ground
fairly pop.
jamestown letter: Andrew Peterson,

has fifty acres of corn without weed.
He tended this alone with team of
horses 25 years old. Mr.. Peterson is yet

ers of Cloud county.
Independence Tribune: Jos. Romig

apple, plum and apricot, to say nothing
of small fruit, such as Strawberries,
black berries, raspberries, and grapes.
In addition to this he has large mar
ket garden of all kinds of vegetables,
besides fifty acres of wheat, the same of
corn and two acres of watermelons. Mr..
Fran says he does not believe there is
another place in the United States where
he could have secured such results in so

of labor. He will this season dispose OF
about $4,000 of produce from his farm.
