Catarrh Means Danger.

Because if unchecked it may lead
directly to consumption. Catarrh
is caused by impure blood. This
fact is fully established There
fore, 1t is useless to try to cure
catarrh by outward applications
or inhaiants. The true way 20
cure catarrh is to purify the
blood. Hoods Sarsaparilla, the
great blood purifier, cures catarrh
by it's power to drive out all i'm
purities from the blood. Thous-
ands of people testify that they
have been perfectly and perma-
nently cured of catarrh by Hood S
SarSaparilla.

The Germans have at length


obtained foothold in China, and
last week landed troops from
their cruisers at kiao-Chan. The
Chinese fled and three forts were
taken. The murder Of the two
German missionaries was the
nominal occasion of the seizure :;
although it is believed that the
German forces intend to remain
permanently, unless indeed they
should be driven out by Russia.
kiao-Chan is the chief port of the
province Of Chang Tung, one of
the most populous provinces of
China.

Sagasta and the present gov

Sagasta and the present gov
ernment of Spain is evidently de-
sirouS OF allaying every cause of
irritation with the United States,
and seems 20 promise all that we
can ask for the present. The
Competitor prisoners were re-
leased and permitted to return 10
New York, though by the law Of
nations they could properly have
been punished. All the English
prisoners have already been re-
leased, and it is announced that
ali tie remaining French and
American prisoners will be at
liberty within a few days. The
mild measures promised by Cen
eral Blanco are more likely to
end the war than the brutality
Of Weyler.
