Beware of Ointments for Catarrl that
Contain Mercury,
As mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and completely derange the
whole system when entering it through
the mucous surfaces. Such articles
should never be used except on pre-
scriptions from reputable physicians, as
the damage they will do is ten-fold to
the good you can possibly derive from
them. Halls Catarrh Cure. manufac-
tured by F. ]. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O.,
contains no mercury, and is taken in
ternally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. In
buying Halls Catarrh Cure be sure you
get the genuine. 1t is taken internally,
and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. =.

How a city was started.

The little city of Mt Vernon. New
York, owes its origin to communistic
discussions in tailor's shop far
down Hudson street. The tailor and
some of his acquaintances finally
agreed to put in one dollar week
until the accumulations should reach a
sufficient sum to purchase tract of
land in the suburbs of New York. The
little organization grew to contain
more than one thousand members, and
they put in one dollar week for sew
enty-six weeks. Then, about 1851, they
made their purchase. Horace Greeley,
who was one of the subscribers to the
fund, wished to range the private lots
about central common, but to this
his fellows would not hear, and to this
day Mt. Vernon has no considerable
public square. All traces of the orig
inal communistic scheme have disap-
peared, though some of the original
subscribers may survive.
