Too long
deluded = the unhappy victim OF
catarrh in the head. He's been
told that it can't be cured. Don't
you believe it. 1t can be, and it
is-no matter how bad or of how
long standing. 1t has been done
for thousands by DR.. Sage's Ca
tarrh Remedy. Other so called
remedies may paliate for a time !;
this cares for all time. BY its mild,
soothing, cleansing and healing
properties, it conquers the worst
cases. Its makers offer, in good
faith, reward of $500 for a case
of catarrh which they cannot cure.
They are able to pay it. Are you
able to take it?
The symptoms of catarrh are,
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
slve; eyes weak, ringing in ears,
deafness; offensive breath; smell
and taste impaired, and general
debility. Only a few of these
symptoms likely to be present at
once. Thousands of cases termi-
nate in Consumption and end in the
grave, without ever having mani
tested all these symptoms. DR..

cases. 80 cents, by druggists.

LONDON, Feb. 5.-The members of the
royal labor commission expressed great
surprise yesterday at the evidence given
by Mr.. Single a boot and shoe manufac-
turer of Leeds, on the subject Of imported
and domestic boots and shoes Mr. Single
testified that the art of boot and shoe max
ing in America is fifty years ahead Of that
in England, owing to the use of improved
machinery, which cannot be taken advan
tage OF by English manufacturers on ac-
count of the determined opposition of the
trades unions to any innovations in the
line of labOr-saving devices.
Are rs Good Quality and Cheaper.
American made boots and shoes, the
witness declared, are fully equal in quail
ity while much cheaper, as compared with
those of English production. The imports
from America, already large, are rapidly
growing. The prices are such as to leave
the American manufacturer good profit.
Mr.. Single naturally thought that if the
commission could do something to con.
vince the unions that il was to their inter
est to admit improved machinery in the
factories, and thus prevent the trade going
to America, it would be u good thing for
every body concerned

NEW BRUINS WICK, n. j., Feb. 5.-The
village of Graz berry, this county, is in an
uproar over the actions of letter writer
who has addressed endearing epistles to
nearly every manageable girl in the
place. So obnoxious has the writer be
come that Postmaster Mcdowell was ap-
pealed to. He traced forty weight letters
from the letter fiend to as many resi-
dents of the village. The letters were all
similar in laI.. guage, being brief, and to
this effect: my Dear Miss am seeking

three letters of his character, sought out
Constable Silvers and employed him to

the writer Wednesday, and chased farm

from the pOstoffiCe in the following terse
but threatening letters: keep off my pre-

Quite Easy.

If war could be carried on by the
rules laid down for students in the
dreadful art, it would become an easy
process. In military tactics it is the
"expected" which happens; in real life,
the unexpected"
A certain general, says the author
of IA Transatlantic Holiday" had
gone to West Point on tour of in
spection, and being little vain of his
own military requirements, he treated
the students to an elaborate demon
stration OF the tactics by which par
ticular fort might be taken, with I'M
failing certainty, in three weeks time.
He then turned to his audience and
inquired:
"But suppose, gentlemen, the stu
alton were reversed, and you were
shut up in that fort, say with fifteen
hundred men, what steps would you
take for it's defence?"
II should walk OUT" said one.
"Walk out with your garrison from
a fort Of that strength! Why, it would
be madness, cowardice''
"But don't you see, sir" was the
cool reply, Gin three weeks I should
haveit again?"

Clever Reasoning,

Rather an original lesson in politi-
cal economy was once taught by the
Japanese nobleman, Awoto, and thus
translated by Sir Edwin Arnold in
"Seas and Lands:' ~,
One evening, as he was going to the
palace to take his turn in keeping the
night-watch, he let ten cash drop out
OF his tinder-case into the stream, and
then bought fifty cash worth of torches
to search for the lost coin. His
friends laughed at him for spending so
much in order to recover so little, and
he replied with a frown:
"Sirs, you are foolish and ignorant
OF economies. Had mot sought
for these ten cash they would have
been forever lost-sunk in the bottom
of the Nameri-gawa. The fifty cash
which / have expended on torches will
remain in the hands Of the trades
man. Whether he has them or is no
matter; but not a single one OF the
sixty has been lost, and that is O clear
gain to the country"

To Drive Him Out,

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6-lhe CARA
movement along the Mexican border is
giving the officials of the war depart
ment considerable trouble just at pres
emit. No secret is made of their disap-
pointment that CARA is still at large in
American territory, and that his opera
tions can not be confined exclusively to
Mexican territory. CARA and his fol-
lowers are known to have received aid
and sympathy from Mexican residents
in the vicinity of Rio Grande, and the
fact that the United States troops are
unable to capture the revolutionists, is
in large measure attributed to the de-
oeption practiced on them by these peo-
pie.
General Grant, acting secretary of
war, and General Schofeld had q con.
ference with the president on this sub.
jeot today and it is underatood it was
decided to take vigorous action to cap
ture Cara and his immediate followers
and drive them out of the country.
Senior Romero. the Mexican minister,
also had talk with Secretary Blaine on
the same subject today and was assured
that this government would do it's ut
most to preserve the neutrality laws.
