There is more Catarrh is this section
of the country than all other diseases
pat together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pronoun'
oed it local disease, and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly fail
ing to cure with local treatment, pro-
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be constitional dis
ease and therefore requires constitution
al treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
manufactured by F. j. Cheney g. Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken intern
ally in doses from 10 drops to tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of this system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circulars

WASHINGTON LETTER.
FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT

WASHINGTON, SEPT. 18th, 1897.
President Mckinley returned to
Washington today for the purpose of
holding a cabinet meeting, discussing
Cuban matters with Consul General
Lee, and disposing Of some pressing pub
lie business, after which he will 60 away
again, probably to New England, to
remain until the first Of October.
The Treasury department is working
through all of it's agents in that section
to keep Americans from venturing into
the Klondike gold regions, until after
travel opens next spring, in order to
save them from certain starvation tn at
will await many of them who succeed
in getting in this tall.
According to- returns thirty OF the
largest postof1lces, the business of which
has been regarded as a Trustworthy
barometer of the general business con.
ditions of the country, things are get
ting decided move on them and the
country has crossed the line which sep
arated it from prosperity. The business
of these thirty postofices was eight per
cent greater in August 1897, than it
was in the same month last year. A
comparison of 1897 with 1896 shows in
January, a decrease of 81 per cent; in
February, a decrease Of At per cent;
March, an increase of 2 2-5 per cent;
April, an increase Of 5 per cent; May,
an increase of 7 per cent; June, an in
crease of per cent; and July, 3 per
cent. The jump to clean 8 per cent
increase in August is considered some
thing extraordinary.

Its multitudes of dead
and dying. The horrors of war are no
greater than the horrors of disease. If all
the nations of the earth were at war against
each other there would be no such carnage
wrought within the year as that which Is
consumption.
And yet this most fatal Of all diseases is
not without it's remedy. 1t is no longer the
irresistible destroyer that 1t was considered
thirty years ago An entirely new aspect is
put upon the possibilities Of this dreadful
malady by the astounding remedial action
of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
which cures consumption by nourishing the
lungs with an abundant supply of pure,
highly vitalized blood.
This stops the formation Of tuberculous
matter, and builds up fresh tissue, muscular
flesh and vital energy. 1t gives digestive
power to the stomach which Is too weak to
assimilate oily emulsions.

is LAZINESS A DISEASE?

Laziness is frequently inherited, and
is such an enemy to success that it
should be treated. No one wants the
reputation Of being lazy, but to over
come the tendency by force of will is
hard task, and frequently impossi-
BILE, because the force of will may also
be lacking. Many people have been
charged with laziness who were really
i'll and haven't themselves known that
special treatment would overcome the
inertia. Lack of nerve power can be
remedied as we'll as exhausted nerve
power. All people with tendency to
what is called laziness, and with a
desire to overcome it, should consult
the great specialist, DR.. Greene, of So
West 14th Street, New York City, who
has made the most wonderful discov-
cries in medicines, one of the most
remarkable Of these discoveries being
the world-famed Nervura.
Consultation with Dr. Greene may
be by personal call or by letter
through the mail, and such consulta-
ton, by either method, is absolutely
free, as is also his advice Lazy peo-
pie, who are generally i'll people. are
useless people. Take the easy way OF
writing to DR.. Greene, and he will tell
you how to become energised, and
make you of some use in the world

Congressman B. B. Dovener returned
yesterday from Washington, in excel
lent health and spirits, and spent the
afternoon and evening in shaking hands
with his friends. The Captain was
very much pleased with the success of
the California trip, which was arrang-
ed by him, but was trifle annoyed at
the published statements that the gov
eminent will be under thousands of
dollars Of expense for the entertain
ment of the Wheeling party.
THAT statement is untrue" he said
to Register reporter. LAS a matter
of fact the government does not pay a
single cent Of the expense. The only
thing 1 askd Of the government was a
letter to the navy officials in San Fran
cisco, which l received. They treated
US royalty.
ct was the first time a delegation Of
citizens Travelled across the continent
on a similar purpose, and the presence
of the Wheeling delegation did much
to advertise the city and the State. The
presents to the gunboat were also not
of the usual description, and this fact
was appreciated. West Virginia is we'll
thought Of in San Francisco as a result
Of the trip
Capt. Dovener returned with the
Wheeling party, while Mrs. Dovener
went to Honolulu, Sandwich Islands.
He has received letters from her, stat
ing that she enjoyed the trip. Mrs.
Dovener is now on her way from San
Francisco to Wheeling, and is expected
home within a few days. Capt Dov-
ener will remain here until the session
Of Congress opens in December, al
though he will probably make occa-
sional trips to Washington on business.
He was invited to accompany the
Wheeling delegation to the Ohio River
improvement Convention, which meets
very anxious to accept the invitation,
providing business matters do not in
terfere
"The movement for the Improvement
Of the Ohio has already born fruit" he
said. IF / go to Evansville, I shall
| work hard to have the Association hold
it's next annual meeting in Wheeling.
An effort was made to bring the meet
ing to Wheeling this year, but Evans
vile had been promised. However,
there is very kindly feeling toward
Wheeling, and l don't anticipate any
trouble in inducing the delegates to
select this city. The first two meetings
were held in Cincinnati and Pittsburg,
and it was thought best to hold the
third at a point farther South. Next
year the matter of geography may oper-
ate to the advantage of Wheeling,
which is the most important point be-
tween Pittsburg and Cincinnati.
when the steamboat trip was made
from Pittsburg down the Ohio, some of
the river men expressed regret that the
Congressional party did not see the
river when it was low believing that
they would have better appreciated the
need of improvements. l think, how
ever, that it was opportunity timed, as
the Congressman were enabled to learn
of the vast commercial interests in
volved while the statistics concerning
low water could be easily obtained
from government officials. And, by the
way some members of Congress who
were in that party will never tire of
praising Wheeling. This city enter
tanned them handsomely"
