Facts Worth knowing.

In all diseases of the nasal mucous
membrane the remedy used must be
non-irritating. Nothing satisfactory
can be accomplished with dCuches,
snuffs, powders or astringents, because
they are irritating, do not thoroughly
reach the affected surfaces and should
be abandoned as worse than failures
A multitude of persons who had for
years borne all the worry and pain
that catarrh can infiict testify to radi-
cal and permanent cures wrought by
Ely's Cream Balm. Your druggist
has it.

A Stubborn Woman.

We read that when Jove had the
ordering of mundane affairs, he prom
ised to send rain on any day that
would be agreed upon by the whole
world. 1t was reported at last that
they were all ready for rain at a GER
tain date, except one old woman who
wanted to make soap on that particu-
lar day. Women are often accused of
being capricious and whimsical; but
there is one point on which they will
all agree-the desirability of being
well, and looking well. Every woman,
be she young or old, always wants to
look her BEST and in order to do this.
it is necessary to attain that state of
health which will impart a sparkle to
her eye, a bloom to her cheek, and
grace and symmetry to her entire form.
