With better understanding Of the
w transient nature Of the many phys
zeal ills which vanish before proper e.
sorts-gentle efforts pleasant efforts
eighty directed. There is comfort in
he knowledge that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis.
sase, but simply to constipated condi-
lion Of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
" removes. That Is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects arc d,lc to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. tits therefore
ali important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then laxa-
tives or other remedies are not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended tothe most skillful
physicians, but If in need of laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informed everywhere, Syrupof
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction

work upon the system easily, naturally.
There is no unpleasant nausea after tax

Deaf
From Catarrh.

The sufferer from catarrh, perhaps,
meets with more encouragement in
seeking cure than those afflicted
with all other ailments. After ex-
hausting the skill of the best physi-
clans, and inhaling various mixtures,
paying out large sums for doctors
fees and medicines, he finds himself
either as bad off as at first or a great
deal worse.
The cause of this is easily explained.
The disease is in the blood, and only a
real blood remedy can possibly have
any effect upon it. The doctors being
unable, with their stereotyped RENE
dies of potash and mercury, to cure
diseases of the blood, direct their
efforts toward treating the symp-
toms of the disease, and ignoring it's
cause. The inhaling of various sprays,
and use of washes, etc, is but a SUI
perficia1 and temporary treatment,
and cannot possibly effect cure.

Mrs. Josephine Polhil1, of Due West,
| S. c., was for years a sufferer from
this distressing complaint, and has
learned by experience its fortunes.
She says:
For years I was the victim of the
worst case of catarrh that / ever
heard of. I was treated by several
doctors, and took numerous medicines
claiming to cure the disease, but in
stead of being benefited my condi-
ton grew worse steadily.
1.-THE trouble became so deep-seated
that l was entirely deaf in one ear.
1t is difficult to describe my condition,
but some idea of the ravages of the
disease can be obtained when I state
that all the inside of my nose, includ-
ing part of the bone sloughed off. 1t
can be readily understood how Often
sive all this was, and how unbearable
my condition became. When the
disease had gone this far the physi-
clan gave me up as incurable, and
told me 1 would never be any better.
Reading of many similar cases be-
ing cured by S. S. S., l determined to
try it as a last resort / soon discov-
cred that ali my former treatment
had been wrong, as the disease was in
the blood, and only blood remedy
could cure it. began to improve at
once, and grew better as / continued
to take S. S. s. 1t seemed to get at
the seat Of the disease, and after a
few weeks treatment ! was entirely
cured, and for more than seven years
have had no sign of the disease"
Catarrh is one of the deep-seated
blood diseases, and only a thorough
blood remedy will have any effect
upon it. s. S. S. is the only blood
remedy that is guaranteed

While tho United States is politically

Albion News. There are now but three
Judges OF the supreme court Of Nebraska.
In that court there are pending 1878 cases.
There are filed 740 new cases per annum, ana
by the three judges assisted by as many
commissioners. there can be disposed OF only
$50 cases annually. The entire court as
now constituted would require more than
two years to clear the docket OF accumulated
business. Meantime a still greater number
will be nlcd The salary OF one commits
sioncr and his assistant will be saved, thus
economizing $500 annually. Aside from
all these considerations II would seem proper
that the electors should select the necessary
judicial aid rather than that this selec-
ton should as now be deyolved
upon the supreme court From all these
facts Il Is clear that the public welfare
and the due administration OF Justice re-
auire that the first constitutional amend
ment as It occurs on the Official ballot
should prevail whereby would be increased
the number Of supreme judges from three
20 FIVE as proposed. The foregoing is a con-
else explanation OF an important question
TO be solved by the voters Of Nebraska on
election day and the matter Is worthy Of
each mans thoughtful consideration.
