How to
(upeCatapPh.

Every sufferer from .Catarrh should
know that it is impossible to cure the
disease with sprays, washes, inhala-
tions, ETC., which are universally used.
In fact, the experience of growing
worse all the while is proof that the
treatment is all wrong. Many
who have been under treatment for
years 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
ment they have received has been mis-
directed, and has not touched their
trouble. Catarrh is a stubborn deep
seated blood disease, and everybody
should know that to simply treat the
surface, that is, the local irritation,
does not reach the disease. A blood
remedy is needed, but it must be good
one; remedy which goes down to the
very bottom of the trouble and forces it
out. SIS. (Swift's Specifc) is the only
one which can have the slightest effect
upon Catarrh, for it is the only one which
goes to the seat of the disease, and per
maaently gets rid of it. This is the only
reasonable way to treat Catarrh.

METHODIST CHURCH NOTES.

The Methodist church in the Hollow

mistakable signs of decrepitude, and as

methods enriched by those of Caroline
Meieneder, who, having made the study
of music her life work, brought to the
methods of the great master the grsces

terest in the work Of renovatfng and i'm
proving the above building, and the fact
of its being the only English-speaking
Protestant church in the important and
populous center of Washington Depot,
invests the appeal with special signifi-
canoe. The projected improvements en-
brace slight alteration in structure and
much needed painting, especially on the
the horse sheds. The furnishings, too,
niece ssitate .carpeting, cushionipg and
the providing of extra lamps. 1t is de
sired to enlist the good offices of friends,
in order that the foregoing, among
other improvements to the church prop
erty, may be carried to completion.

mer residence, its green-clad hills and

is well that a church of such general

three hundred dollars. Subscriptions
