How to
CQpeCatarph,

Every sufferer from Catarrh should
know that it is impossible to cure the
disease with sprays, washes, inhala-
lions, etc., which are universally used.
In fact, the experience of growing
worse all the while is proof that the
.reatment is all wrong. Many
who have been under treatment for
gears and met with disappointment in
stead of benefit are willing to doubt
that there is any cure for Catarrh.
The trouble is that all of the treat
1lent they have received has been mis-
directed, and has not touched their
trouble. Catarrh is stubborn deep
seated blood disease, and everybody
should know that to simply treat the
surface, that is, the local irritation,
loes not reach the disease. A blood
e1nedy is needed, but it must be good
'ne; remedy which goes down to the
cry bottom Of the trouble and forces it
out. S.S.S. (Swift's Specifc) is the only
one which can have the slightest effect
lpon Catarrh, for it is the only one which
goes to the seat of the disease, and per-
nanently gets rid oft. This is the only
reasonable way to treat Catarrh.

A BIT OF KLONDlkE LIFE,
Or One Day With Boy In the New Ell

Or One Day With a Boy In the New Eel
Dorado.
The little Klondike boy came into the
house at II O'Clock and said to his mother,
who was gold dusting the furniture, "Oh,
mamma, what can do for fun?"
"Why don t you play with the little boy
next door," asked his mother, wiping the
perspiration off her face and burning the
handkerchief that no gold be lost.
Il did, and we were throwing nuggets
ut yellow dog, and he threw my two
pound one that was keeping for luck
right through the bakers window, and he
kept it" said the little fellow, choking
back the tears.
"Well, don't Cry, Harry over little
thing like that Papa will bring you an
other If you ask him. Why don't you take
your shovel and go out in the back yard
and dig some more YOURSELF"
"Oh, that's no fun. Besides, they re so
hard that I've bent my shovel"
"Well, can't think what to suggest
unless you take your watering pot and
sprinkle the road in front of the house
We might as well lay the dust as to have
1t blowing all over passersby, who walk
away with it," And the mother put her
feather duster in the stove and went to the
closet for fresh one.
Little Harry enjoyed his new sport for
awhile, and then he came in and in an
angry tone of voice said: ''Say, mamma,
there was the meanest woman out there.
She's from Chicago, for Tommy told me
SO, and she stood with the dust blowing
on her until / laid it, and she tracked
around in it until her shoes were covered
with mud, and then she went away, and
when called out to her to come back and
wipe her feet she only jeered at me. ~
Harry's mother was philosophical "It
can't be helped, my son, said she. II
noticed that Chicago girl and thought she
was there for no good to us, but she can
have taken not more than $40 worth of
DUST
just then the door opened and Harry's
father came in with meal bag full of
rich red gold, his reward for days dig
ging, and in moment the Chicago girl
was forgotten, and Harry was happy in
the possession of a five pound nugget that
made the two pound one that he had lost
look like 30 cents. Charles Battell Loomis

ALREADY the free silver fetish exudes

A DEMOCRATIC OPINION,

Governor Oteros visit to Washington
is said to be in the interest of home rule
and the appointment of some of his terri
torial friends to associate justiceships.
There are number of thoroughly quail
fed attorneys in this territory who are
genuine Republicans and who would bear
dignity and credit to the bench, but the
trouble appears to be that the Republic
ans, through some misohance, have taken
up an old Democratic folly and "fell to
fghtin'." The fight will probably end as
did the encounter between the muslin dog
and calico cat; they ate each other up.
That was mighty good fighting, but rather
hard on the combatants.-Silver City In
