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-
uounced it local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be constitution
al disease and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to teaspoon
full. 1t acts directly Oh the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred
dollars far any case it fails to cure. Send for

MOST SAVAGE OF SPIDERS.
The Tarantula Endowed with Enough

The Tarantula Endowed with Enough
Courage to Attack Larger Enemies.
The tarantula is a large burrowing
spider which dwells in a shaft-ike hole
sinks in the earth. Its appearance is
most repulsive, and inspires anyone
who examines it with feeling of pro-
found disgust. AS it stands, it fire.
7uently covers an area as large as the
palm of mans hand, and over it's
body and legs there bristles a thick
covering Of reddish brown hair. It may
be said that its home is in many lands,
but its greatest size is attained in
tropical and semi-tropical countries. In
the south of Europe, along the Mediter-
ranean coast, it has been known for
centuries as the mad spider because
the symptoms following its bite are
similar to those of hydrophobia. There
the peasantry, especially those of Sicily
regard it with mingled feelings of hate
and superstitious dread. They will tell
you that the only chance of recovery
from its bite is for the patient to COM
mencing dancing without delay, and
to continue until he falls senseless from
exhaustion-a remedy which, ridiculous
as it seems, has something to be said
In its favor, when we know that the
one danger is to overcome the tendency
AS long as this can be successfully
avoided the patient is in no danger;
but if he gives way, and allows himself
to fall into a stupor, then he is likely
to succumb, even from the comparative
ty mild poison of the European variety.
1t is in the tropical countries of South
America, however, where all forms OF
insect and vegetable life attain their
highest development, that this great
spider is most deadly. And farther
north, in the provinces of Mexico, where
1t is quite numerous, it's poison is only
slight degree less dangerous. There
we have met it everywhere and studied
Its habits. In the orange orchards, the
vineyards and the open prairies we have
watched it attack enemies many times
it's own size, and marveled at the ease
with which it overcame them. Even it's
own kind are not exempt from its fierce
onslaught, and we remember once see
ing a pair of them meet on an upturned
root of a fig tree and fight a duel to
the death-the death of both. OF man
1t seems to have no fear whatever, and
will attack without hesitation either his
hand or foot, if they come within
striking distance. In doing so it stands
upon it's four hind legs. 1t opens wide
Its enormous fangs until the mandibles
protrude in a straight line from the
face; then, with all the muscular force
1t is capable of, launches itself forward,
sinking them with a vicious thrust deep
into the flesh of the enemy.

It looked at one time as if wheat might
do better today. 1t had rallied only 23sc
after 10c break, and there seemed to be
enough bullish news to keep it moving
upward, but the offerings kept increas-
ing until finally holders threw up both
hands and got out like rats out of
a sinking ship. There was no apparent
reason except that the longs were over
loaded and could find no market on
which to realize a profit. Country stop
orders came in pretty thick causing sharp
breaka Late cables came in
