Accountable
Catapph.

1t is not reasonable to expect to be
cured of any disease, no matter how
constant and persevering the treat
ment, when that treatment is alto
gether misdirected, and can not posi-
bly, reach the trouble.
This explains why those afflicted
with catarrh meet with so much dis
enlargement, Though they faithfully
take the usual treatment consisting of
sprays, washes, etc., and pass through
the summer without much discomfort,
as soon as cold weather returns, they
find themselves more firmly in the grip
of the disease than ever. Such results
could hardly be expected if the proper
treatment had been given.
Any one who has had experience
with catarrh will readily admit that it
is one of the most obstinate of diseases;
it is easy to see, therefore, that it is
deep-seated, and that no remedy which
merely reaches the surface can have
the slightest effect upon it. The only
known cure for catarrh is a real blood
remedy, one which gets at the seat of
the disease-the cause of the trouble
and forces it from the system. Such a
remedy is S. S. S. (Swift's Specifc).

Cold and La Grippe .

The season for colds and lagrippe
has now arrived.
La Grippe is paralysis Of the
sympathetic nervous system, with
local evacerbatiODS. 1t is this that
accounts for its multifOrm manifesto
tions-aS, general debility, colds
pneumonia, stomach trouble, hea It
failure, ETC., the weakest organ in the
body being generally the point of
attack.
All the treatments are sympathetic
stimulants and tones, and the most
active and available Of these are:
TriQuimia Pain Specific, a tablet
every three or four hOuls,(5O cts a
box.)
If there is cold take TriQuimla
Cough Cure, tablet alternately with
the Pain Specific. Us cents a box.)
The above is the treatment for Or
binary cases, and usually cures in
about twelve hours.
In complicated cases other remedies
are required.
If the lungs ase seriously involved,
apply mustard plaster. or TriQuimia
Ointment, which is better. $50 cents
tube.
II there is much nervous depression
take a tablet of TriQuimia Vital
alum after each meal. $50 cents a
box.
If there are symptom of malaria,
and no cold. omit the Cough Cure and
take Ague Cure. rs GEMS a bOx.)
In all cases the Pain Specific is to be
continued in conjunction with the
Other remedies here prescribed. 1t
is the main reliance.
The above treatment will cure the
worst cases.

Now that you cannot ride on account
Of the bad weather, it would be good
idea to run up" your cyclometer

hot summer days. 1t will show a
bigger mileage.

The leaves are turning yellow,
Acyclist on fence;

He sees the moment suits;
He fills his Sweat'r full and round,
Tn en- m cunts his wheel and "sccots."
Frank StarbuCk, one Of the crack
American riders, has been riding a
new chainless wheel for some time
past, during his record breaking trials.
The wheel is not built like the bevel
gear chainless, but has three trailing
cog wheels. Tbe machine is said to
be easier running and with it Star
buck has been doing good work at
records.
Several Of our local wheelmen will
remember John Lawson, "the terrible
Swede," whose famous "yumps"
brought him to the front IN so many
races last season. He is now riding
10 the great six-day race in Wash.
ingtOn, D. c. While he is not in the
lead, his mileage is very good. II
will be remembered that he was being
trained by Ed Miller Of this city, ir
the Wichita races last August.
There are some persons who think
that English makes OF wheels are the
best. In England they do not seem
to think so. The Times of London
predicts that 10000 American wheel,
are lighter and more graceful thar
foreign makes, and besides they ar,
more substantial. However, Ameri
can makers have learned that il i

seacoast countries has a bad effect
on wood rims. Other improvement

Mr.. II. P. Cook, of % Walker street,
Atlanta, Ga, suffered intensely from
catarrh. He says:
II at first thought l had only bad
cold, and didn't give much atten-
ton to the distractions in my nose
and throat. This soon became notice
able, and began to so inconvenience
me, that I applied for treatment and
was given the usual local applications
ofsprays, washes, etc. The immediate
effect of the treatment was to relieve
me, but only for short time after ap-
plication, and l could easily see that
the disease was growing worse stead
lily, and seemed to grow deeper toward
my lungs; my nose and throat were
constantly choked up, so that l was
all the time hawking and splitting, and
to add to it all, the disease became
very offensive. Twas unable to obtain
much sleep, being compelled to get up
constantly during the night to clear
my throat and keep from choking.
81 tried various treatments without
relief, as none of the medicines seemed
to reach the disease. Finally, some
one recommended S. S. S., and before
l had finished one bottle, felt better.
continued the medicine, and it cured
me permanently. Truly believe S.S.S.
is the only cure for catarrh, the most
abominable of all diseases"
S. S. S. is unlike all other blood
remedies, because it is more than a
mere tonic, and goes directly to the
seat of all blood diseases, and cures the
most aggravated cases of Cancer, Ca
tarrh, Rheumatism, Eczema, Scrofula,
Contagious Blood Poison, etc. S. S. S.
is the only blood remedy guaranteed
