Cation got out of bed to play. He
could scarcely drag himself about.
and Mclaughlin easily took q lead
of LOO points in the first half.
Cations ph ysical condition was even
worse the next night, and while
playing he constantly clung to
the rail of the table for supp rt. His
friends begged him to quit. knowing
he had no chance to win. But Cat

start made q run OF over 400. That

mercury or iodide' of potassa. or
both, which are injurious if too long
taken. Catarrh is local, not a
blood disease, caused by cold and
damp weather. 1t starts in the
nasal passages. Cold in the head, il
repeatedly neglected, results in ca

knowledged cure for these troubles
