CATARRH.
COLD IN THEIHEAO

u acute infammati on and swelling Of this
Olfactory organ which contains the
Nerves Of Smell. This organ Is long
ribbon.like membrane and hangs from
the root Of the Nasal passage In folds, as
seen in Fig. 8. When this condition be.
comes chronic, or permanent, 1t Is called
CATARRH. Tho folds become swollen
into solid mass, so the air 10 brea thing
cannot circulate between them hence
the loss Of smell. The Catarrhal microbe
soon makes its appearance, causing
multitude Of small ulcers between these
folds. The pus from these ulcers 10 very
poisonous and soon impregnates. the
whole mucous surface Of the nose, head
and. throat with the disease, Medical
works show cases where the tonslls have
become corrupt mass of ulcers. ltnot
infrequently involves the whole bronchial

nothing can radically cure Catarrh which
does not reach to the seat Of the disease
between these folds of tho Oliactory
organ, and clf nse and heal these ulcers.

In nature that will accomplish this result.

Death on the KIopdlkc.

Out Of the many thousand persons who
are preparing to 60 to tho gold digginss on
the Klondike river in Alaska, very few
will make great fortunes, whiio many
will sacrifice their lives 10 their greed for
gold, This was tho cass in California, in
Colorado, in Australia and in Africa Our
people have sacrificed many hundreds Of
dollars in exploiting various schemes to
get rich quickly, and yet hundreds and
thousands refuse to profit by their folly.
1t Is much better to DO satisfied with small
gains in civilized community than to risk
health and even lifo in an unsettled coun.
try where winter prevails three-fourths
OF the year, as is the case in Alaska. 1t is
worse than folly in men who have been
accustomed to our mild climate 10 attempt
to brave The dangers in such ahypcrborean
region. The klondikc is nearly u thou.
sand miles from Vancouver and littlo be-
low the Arctic Circle Tho climate is
more rigorous than that Of Spitzbergcn
and the country barren of fool Pros
pecting there is nothing short of Arctic
explorations To pass winter there Is
an undertaking, compar able in hardship,
with an advance on tho North Polo, and
those who attempt it should havo an out.
ht like that of Manson or Peary. Men
who are determined to go to tho klondike
mines should understand tho risks they
must incur and tho harlshipa they must
suffer. Life In that region is such AS tries
the souudest health and the most robust
frame. In the nine months arctic winter
with the thermometer marking ID degrees
below zsro pestllsnco, famine and anar-
chy may stalk through the lonely camp
and grave digging become the chief en.
ployment The weak and ctfemlnate Will
certainly perish by the score and instead Ut
gathering gold and returning to their
homes, their bones will fill an early grave.

A Foolish Law.

Tho Interpretation of the Foreign Cor
poration Act is far fetched and il Insisted
upon by our authorities will work grea
injury to merchants doing business in our
city and Suite. 1t is foolish to suppose
that a firm doing business in Pennsylvania
Or New Jersey, purchasing material from
any of our business houses, should have
an agent located in our city for that ex'
press purpose and besides pay A liceuse for
tho privilege of making such purchases
We should suppose there are other mtr-
chants who do not, unfortunately for them
reside In State where such foolish laws
have to be complied with. We think the
Legislature. when it meets in January
next will SEQ to it that the act passed
should apply onlyto tho corporations do.
Ing business in our State, which 1t was
specifically intended to reach 1t shows
what mischief our law makers can accom-
plish when the bills enacted by them arc
not carefully scrutIniHel before being
passed. Every bill Of such importance to
the business community should DO printed
and our merchants given chance to make
themselves acquainted with its provisions
before becoming law. The Proth onatory
should DO rs leuient as possible while re-
whose business it will keep out Of city nu.
