There is more Catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other dis
eases 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 con-
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional 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 teaspoonful.
1t acts directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfaces of the system. They Of
fer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and
testimonials. Address,

There is not enough distinction be-
tween these religions to make their
followers bitter enemies, as though
they had never heard the injunction
of "peace on earth and good will to

dying out.
Five times a day the Turk turns
toward Mecca, and dropping on his
knees, prays to the God of all to pre-

he may love his neighbor as himself.
Oftener than this, the Armenian

and that he may love his nieghbor as

lowing in each others blood.

BOUND OVER.
Fred Brooks and John Castle Have
Their Examination.

Fred Brooks and John Castle had
their preliminary examination this
forenoon on the charge of assault in
the second degree upon John Schaef-
fer. Attorney Murray, of GAINESVILLE,
appeared for them, and County At
torney Benedict for the state.
Mr.. Schaeffer was the first witness
sworn and testified that the defen-
dants and a man named Chase as
saulted HIM at about ten o'clock on
the night of Feb. Goth. Mrs. Chilson
made call for the police and when
he went over to see what was the
matter he was knocked down by one
of the party, whom he thought was
Brooks. A slungshot was used. Four
teeth were knocked out and others
loosened, and he was badly cut about
the ear and elsewhere.
Geo. Bowers testified to seeing the
trouble and the assault on Schaeffe r
ElSheriff Yates testified that the two
parties admitted to him at GAINESVILLE
that they had struck Schaeffer.
Frank Kathoff testified that at
1920 p. N. he saw three parties to-
gether, one of whom was Chase.
The state rested, and the defense
waived further examination. The
court said that there was no doubt
from the evidence that crime had
been committed. 1t was no small
matter that an old man had been
bounced upon by young men who are
making night hideous with revelry.
He bound both parties over to the
grand jury in the sum of $3.50 each.
They expect to furnish bail.
