Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that
Contain Mercury

as mercury will surely destroy the sense of
smell and completely derange the whole
system when entering it through the mu-
cOus surfaces. Such articles should never
be used except on prescriptions from re-
putable physicians, as the damage they
will do is ten fold to the good you can pos
sibly derive from them. Halls CatarTh
Cure, manufactured by +. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo. o., contains no mercury, and is
taken internally, and acts directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the system.
In buying Halls CataTrh Cure be sure you
get the genuine. It is taken internally,

S425S9. 40

In IL years the town has expended accord
ing to report of 1891 in addition to S425S9 40

less the $4,000 reported in 1880.
What has brought the town to this con-
ditiOn? We think there can be but one
answer: LalD suits The case of Bailey VS.
COrlnth, only a few dollars pending for
labor on the road. A County court suit and
Gown defeated. H. Grow suit, $500 would
have settled; County court suit town de-
feated to the sum of nearly or quite 100000
including costs. The Pike Hill road to
COokVille, the Selectmen refused to lay the
road. Result County court suit a courts
committee. The road laid and cost of a
County court suit with committee fees added
to the building of the road.
With regard to present suits we think a
taxpayer should have the privilege of eX-
pressing an opinion for or against without
being accused of taking sides.
1t seems that the town is disposed to butt
every thlng That comes In lis way. IL re-
minds oneof story. A man had a pugna-
cious old ram that would butt everything
that came in his way. His Ownerto punish
him tied rope to the beam of gate frame
and to end OF the rope hung heavy maui
The ram saw it swinging and prepared him
self to fight. AS IT swung toward him he
would butt it. The next morning the
owner went to see how the old fellow pros
pered. He found only a stump of the tail
and that was jumping at the maui. We
think we can see the point, it we do not
believe the story.

What about COrinth town suits? Who
are the enemies who have been fighting the
town and who are their friends, and what
do they want, are they getting desperate ?
Did the eX collector hold back thousands of
dollars of the towns clean money? Again
was it the loyal citizens or was it the eX-
collector and his bondsmen who actually
signed their own names to his bonds. and
their friends that aided in keeping him in
office when he was getting the towns mon
ey into his hands. Again while the eX-
collector and his bondSmen, with the law
yers they employed and others, have fought
the town ana made costs in resisting pay
ment, should they not pay this cost W itch
they have thus made? Again if the tax
money had been all paid over at first, would
it not have saved all suits and costs ? Again
if the eX-collector and bOndsmen would
turn over property or pay over money, in
place of rumors of bantering offers and
public sensation before town meeting, the
town would give them credit for so much,
and if they would walk up like men, and
honor their own signatures on the bonds,
and try to pay and settle, the pending suits
could be very easily ended, and we believe
the town would not make any account of
small things. 1t appears that the suits have
been so managed by the town that the
bOndsmen are getting pressed and corner
