That's what is promised you, no
matter how bad your case or of how
long standing, by the proprietors of
DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.
Catarrh can be cured. Not with
the poisonous, irritating snuffs and
strong, caustic solutions, that simply
palliate for a time, or perhaps, drive
the disease to the lungs-but with
DIR. Sage's Remedy.
The worst cases yield to its mild,
soothing, cleansing and healing prop

but a few applications. Catarrhal
Headache, and all the effects of Ca
tarrh in the Head-such as often
sive breath, loss or impairment of
the senses of taste, smell and hear
ing, watering or weak eyes-are at
once relieved and cured.
In thousands of cases, where ev-
erything else has failed, DIR. Sage's
Remedy has produced perfect and
permanent cures. That gives its
proprietors faith to make the offer.
It's $500. or cure. They mean
to pay you, if they can't cure you.
But they mean to cure you, and
they can.

How the Walter Favored Particular
Guest.
The guests of an uptown family
hotel have been annoyed recently by
the consequences of a litigation between
the owners of the building and the
manager. The hotel is run about az
usual but the litigation precludes the
purchase of any additional furniture
and fixtures, including dishes. When
the plates and cups and saucers are
Clipped or broken there is no provision
for their replacement while the law
suits are pending. One of the guests an
ardent lover of Mocha, strenuously OBJ
jected to drinking his coffee from a
broken cup The waiter who attended
his table CHANGED to be one of the oblig.
ing kind and he brought from his pri-
vate cabinet new coffee cup edged with
broad band of gold and with the
words Love the Giver" intertwined
with flowers. He explained that the
cup had been presented to him years
ago, but he had never used it. The
favored guest, not desiring to hurt the
walters feelings, made use of the
gaudy cup. A few days thereafter,
however, the waiter dropped it and
broke il. The next morning cc<ee was
served TO the favored guest in plain
white mug, labeled in blue letters on
the front: "A Nice Shaver"

piciously.

Verses Of Gratitude by Mr..
F. G. Winslow.
Celebrated His Restoration to
Health and Strength.
Is one of the Oldest and Most Re-
speeted Men of Freeport.

Mr. F. c. Wilson of Freeport, ILL.,, one
of the oldest and most respected citizens
of that busting city, celebrates his re-
storation to health and strength at the
advanced age of eighty-three, by writing
a poem entitled Il know I'm old, - which
has appeared in several Western journals.
1t begins:
1 know I'm old. for years have gone,
Like ocean waves they pass;
While manhood's strength and youthful
Their shadows DER me cast.
Yet in my heart fountain flows
Of and peace and sweet repose,
Shines out like stars in evening sky.
1t is poem of gratitude. 1.-TWO years
ago." says Mr.. Winslow in a letter to the
Chicago Herald, 81 was taken with the
grip, and have been confined to my room
and bed most of the time since. My
whole nervous system became awakened,
and with this there were other vital de-
rangements. l had the attendance and
counsel of two able medical men, and al
so counsel from several other physicians.
And in addition to the above trouble,
have had organic disease, which at times
was greatly increased and aggravated.
Some months ago my attention was
called by friend to Paine's celery COM
pound as valuable medicine for nervous
trouble, and while still in bed suffering
with nervous debility, l obtained bot
tie and commenced taking it. Before
had used half of it felt very sensible re-
lief. 1 continued using it and now I am
on my third bottle and see that 1 have
not felt such strength of nerves for years.
II have had nervous debility for many
years, but my nerves are quite vigorous
again, and now l am up, and visiting
my neighbors and attending to my bust
ness. The little poem is an expression
of my gratitude to Paine's celery COM
pound, for it gives me strength when
death is at the door,
