There is more catarrh In this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nOunced it a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by constant
ly failing tocure with local treatment,
pronounced 1t incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be q constitutional
disease, and therefore requires constI-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney
& Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only consti-
tutional cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops

Brothers Who Call ON Girls.


The girl who has a brother knows
how young man is apt to talk at
the breakfast table the next morning
after he has made an evening call.
Eyes, he admits, II did stay later
than I ought knew that very well
but what's a man to do when q
girl starts new topic of conversa-
ton every time he makes q move to
go or tells him that he is always in
a hurry to get away when he comes
therei You have to be potter And
she knows with what relish he al
ways tells about the young lady vino
informed him fatty one evening that
10 O'Clock was the leaving hour at
her home. He did not enjoy it par
ticularly at the time, he owns, but
he has had a mighty respect for that
young lady ever since.
30 the girl who has a brother pom
ders on these things and never urges
a gentleman caller to remain after 10
o'clock has struck.
She knows that when this brother
calls on three different young ladies
within a week he does not discourse
largely upon the other calls at either
OF the places. This knowledge keeps
her from believing herself to be the
only and particular star of any gen.
teman who comes to see her fire.
quently and never mentions visiting
the other girls 1t makes her less sus-
ceptible and more suspicious.-Chi-

Satisfaction After Five Years.


A Broadway car came bowling
along toward the postofice one after
noon recently when the slush and
mud in the street were an inch or two
deep. A well known federal Office
holder stood on the down town cross
ing at Barclay street. He had g
woman with him.
AS the car approached he put up
his hand authoritatively. The driver
motioned that he would stop at the
upper crossing, as the rules pre-
scribed. The government official
stamped his foot and pointed to the
spot where he stood as much as to
say:
"You will stop right here"
He got fooled. The car whizzed
by and stopped on the corner where
the driver said it would. The fed
eral officer waded through the mud,
dragging the woman after him, and
entered the car. The conductor gave
the signal, and the yellow car went
rolling on up town.
When he had gone block or two,
the driver stopped his whistling,
glanced cautiously back into the car,
and then said:
'That man played me dirt when
got me nat'raliSashun papers five
years ago. He made me wait fur
him fur tree hours, and I never for
got his face"
And then the driver resumed his
whistling, which he kept up during
the entire trip.-New York Herald.
