Is CATARRH INCURABLE?
Answer No, and For the Following
RedSO.S.

RedS0aS.
The various kinds and modes of
local applications for catarrh, such
as sprays, atomizes, douches, inhal-
ants, creams, ointments; lotions, |
gargles etc. etc, have in many
cases soothing effect on the infam-
ed surfaces, ard are sometimes use
ful TO assist "A cuie; but neither Of
them nor all of them together ever
did or ever will cure II case Of ca
tarrh. These things may give tenn
porary relief, but is useless TO expect
a cure of them. Catarrh is not 10.
cal disease, hence can not be cured
by local treatment. The only hope of
success in the permanent cure of
chronic catarrh is to devise some
remedy that will stimulate the
nerves which supply the capillary
blood vessels. There is but one
remedy that has the most desirable
effect, and that remedy is Pe-ru-na.
This remedy strikes at once at the
root of the catarrh by restoring to
the capillary vessels their healty
elasticity. Peru na is not a tempora-
ry palliative, but radical cure Its
action is necessarily slow, but per.
maneut.
The reason that there are any
failures is either because the catarrl
is complicated by some organic dis.
ease or the patient does not take the
medicine long enough. The majori'
ty of people expect to be cured in &
week or two Of catarrh that has ruI
for ten of fifteen years. Such people
are nearly always disappointed. Pc
III na will cure a recent case of acute
catarlh in few days or weeks, but
when the disease becomes chronic il
takes longer. In no case should
anyone leave off taking Peru Ia un
til after writing DIR. Hartman let
ter flom him is almost sure to poin
out the cause Of the failure.
A valuable pamphlet of thirty tw'
pages, setting forth in detail tn
treatment of catarrh, coughs, colds
sore throats, bronchitis and cor
sumption, in every phase of the dis
ease, will be sent free to any addres
T by the Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Co. of Columbus, Ohio.

Venetian Yopth.

The Venetian youths, like their cousins
in Rome, are fond of dogs, and the uglier
and more forbidding the dog SO much
the more it seems to be admired. This
has very odd result. The gentlemen
wear their boots long in the sole and
curved upward, mode which does not
improve their personal appearance.
When very exquisite indeed, they further
attire themselves in tall silk hats, lemon
colored kid gloves and collars that rise
almost to their lips. Then, with dap
per cane and a poodle shaven so brutally
clean that no lock Of wool is left upon
it, save at the tip Of its tail, the gentle
man considers himself completed for
promenade.
Up and down he goes, bowling ZEAL
ously to the right hand and the left
ever and anon stopping to caress the
tips of the fingers of a lady, and ever
and anon pausing to unwind the chain
Of his poodle from his elegant legs. He
is an expert at expletives; but the poodle
is used to them, and bears without one
whine of objection all the abuse it ex-
cites.-All the Year Round.

FATE.

My feet are set in lowly ways.
Mine eyes on mighty hills,
Whose shining height but mock the

That my poor pathway fills.
Great aspirations, like song,
Uplift my waiting heart;
The while my hands to mental deeds
a thankless grace impart.
Yet the denial that doth meet
The souls needs, small or great,
A stern, unchanging title bears
The old. old name of fate!

New York, Feb. 1S.-One OF two OF
the largest importing houses make a
speciality of importing pattern dresses
for young girls which are afterward
copied with slight changes. Among the
latest to come, of such dresses l select
two that mothers may know the styles
that will prevail during this season, and
these are representative.
Blouse effects appear in nearly all
waists, with arrangements somewhat or
quite like these two, of an extension OF
the skirt upward to form something OF a
girdle effect.
